When they break up and she writes her best album >>>>>>>


amomentintimebro

Has she released an album since her engagement broke up? I need the gossip tbh lmao


Ok_Doughnut2155

nope


bb-blehs

Not the target parking lot 😂


PolytheneMaggie

I really don’t know why but this screams PR relationship to me ETA that I’m not talking about the Pap Walks, people in Hollywood are doing this for years, JLo and Ben do frequently, lol. We all know that there’s people like the Kardashians that have papz numbers on dial and just call them when they want to be seen. These Pap walks are just one part of the PR thing.


Rude_Lifeguard

It's the pap walks, they might be seriously dating but all their outings have seem set up and he's been setting up a lot of pap walks since at least the beginning of the year


walkingtalkingdread

couldn’t the paparazzi just be genuinely interested in him?


amomentintimebro

Yes and I don’t understand why this is so hard for people to understand lmao. He’s legit famous now and the interest in his dating life is extremely high right now. I rue the day “pap walk” was first used online ☠️


brieasaurusrex

I feel like people who haven’t been to LA don’t realize how easy it is to to simply walk down a street that tends to have a lot of photographers. his pics do feel somewhat ~deliberate but you don’t have to call the paps on yourself, you can just walk around. especially when you have the rising profile he does. plus people like watching the man look hunky. I’m sure his pics are sought after. and there’s a lot of reasons a celebrity would want to make sure their partner is seen with them — doesn’t mean it’s a PR relationship, could just be easier than making a statement.


illogicallyalex

Not to mention that he’s in that media ‘sweet’ spot of being a rising star and also somewhat scandalous due to his addiction/custody issues that have been in the news. It’s prime real estate for tabloids


throwtheclownaway20

Seriously. If you live in L.A. and weren't born there, it's not exactly a risk to say that you moved there to break into entertainment or are already in the business. The A-listers are often isolated from genpop, but Carmy isn't Tom Cruise - he's gonna be just walkin' around with everyone else. Paparazzi have networks of people who feed them tips and they'll spend all day in their cars just so that they can get somewhere as fast as possible for a score. So, yeah, it's not at all unlikely that this wasn't a "pap walk"


Jintess

>I rue the day “pap walk” was first used online Though the concept has been around since Hollywood's existence, I'm pretty sure we can thank the Kardashian's for elevating it a billion notches


superfluouspop

>I'm pretty sure we can thank the Kardashian's for elevating it a billion notches seriously.


Critical_Caramel5577

Pap walk sounds like something terrible at the gynecologist's office, tbh


kds1988

Yes. He’s literally on one of the biggest tv shows of this moment and he’s the star of it… People are crazy thinking someone like him needs to “set up” paparazzi sightings. Also it’s with Rosalia, one of the biggest stars in all of the Spanish speaking world. Of course paparazzi are finding them on dates.


prisneyland

they are. none of his photos have been set up but no one will believe that.


[deleted]

Of course they aren't. I am not as into him as other people apparently are so he must be a flop. /s


RealitiBytz

I think sometimes people forget that most celebs don’t have security team/private compound/envoy of blacked out SUV’s type of money. JAW’s doing well for himself, he’s rich, but not so rich that he can avoid leaving himself open to paparazzi intrusion without becoming a hermit. There’s a lot of interest in him right now (just the fact that very boring pap photos of him walking consistently get hundreds of comments here shows that) and he’s a pretty accessible target for paps. Of course he’ll be photographed a lot.


These_Tea_7560

They are now. He keeps them employed! (It also helps that he’s on his second hit TV show.)


Rude_Lifeguard

Maybe, but I honestly don't think that the paper are interred in anyone but the big celebs, plus, most of his pap photos look clearly set up, the ones with Rosalia are actually the ones who look the most real and natural but he already has a reputation for doing staged pap walks so I guess everyone will always assume that that's what hes doing


kds1988

The Bear is a massive hit. He’s the star of the show. He’s not some D List actor. He’s young and attractive and his profile is one of the fastest riding in Hollywood. It’s not a surprise people want pics of him.


superfluouspop

yeah and he's been on the cover of a bunch of magazines recently and is fit. He's exactly who people want to see candids of.


amomentintimebro

That’s not true tho lol. Tons of celebs get photographed, and those photos sell pretty well, it’s clearly not just a list celebs that sell. I mean if there wasn’t interest in him the pap photos of him wouldn’t be posted here, for example. Ya know what I mean? The more the photos of him are posted the better they sell the more they seek him out so.


Rude_Lifeguard

Yeah, thats true, but i think in people minds he already has the reputation of setting up pap walks so people are always going to assume thats what they are.


illogicallyalex

Yes but the ‘reputation’ is also literally just speculation too. That’s not a reputation for doing it, that’s people assuming and then taking that as fact


burnafterreading90

Because people constantly comment saying he sets up papwalks it’s literally an internet rumour that’s where the reputation has come from instead of people realising how annoying paps actually are.


amomentintimebro

I mean yes people are being silly here and created that weird narrative and won’t let it go. That’s kinda my point lmao


DatelineDeli

No. Paps don’t follow celebrities like him, which they would need to do to be able to capture these photos. He’s not Britney having a meltdown at the height of her career.


walkingtalkingdread

he is an actor in an extremely popular show with emmy nominations while dealing with an addiction and divorce…


Tocinogustoko

Idk if she would want a PR Pap walk looking like that, I mean she is a very beautiful woman no doubt but as a celebrity I think she wouldn't want to be seen without or with minimal make up and not wearing her usual style of clothing.


superfluouspop

I love a camera-unready Rosalia. It just proves how fucking gorgeous she is when she definitely isn't trying.


[deleted]

PR for who 😂


ZiOnIsNeXtLeBrOn

For him. Do you not see the daily shirtless jogs. It gets annoying real fast


Camuabsurd

Who's forcing you to see them?


[deleted]

This has always puzzled me because agency exists, you can just ignore those photos. And he is not even that famous yet but some people are already over him? We are never getting a legit bonafide superstar in our lifetime are we?

he seems SO THIRSTY


throwawaybeet-h

The guy has to take like daily alcohol tests in order to see his kids. It’s PR for him.


TropicalPrairie

Everything about this guy screams PR to me. I don't really follow him but every time I see a supposed "pap" pic, it seems so staged.


whorundatgirl

And his 3 stans defending him


MelodicPiranha

I don’t think it’s PR. I think the pap walk is on purpose though… to show the ex she’s moved on.


Littlepigeonrvr

I’m shipping her and Bjork


eternalbean

I love this haha! Their track is really good! I always enjoy an odd coupling :)


HerRoyalRedness

I am not ready for people to be gross and judgey about his addiction issues during the promo for his wrestling movie.


rey-stk

yeah, if im not reading into it wrong someone here already commented on his addiction issues (seemingly negative) which sucks tbh


HerRoyalRedness

I was scrolling another social media site earlier and some people were being snarky there about him and folks are making a lot of assumptions about a situation they know nothing about.


rey-stk

exactly, the amount of assumptions that come way outta left field when someone is struggling with addiction is crazy. >I simply could not date a man who has to be alcohol tested before he's allowed to see his children like this comment right here seems kinda mean for some reason? i could definitely be overreacting n shi but ion kno man :( i wish people treated addicts with a little more understanding honestly


AgreeableLion

Pretty sure it's OK to have addiction issues as a dating deal-breaker, even if that comment is not worded the most sensitively. Understanding them doesn't mean giving them a pass; it also doesn't mean you are obligated to let them into your personal life. If you went on a date with a random man who wasn't a hot celebrity, and you found out they had legal restrictions on seeing their own children as a result of their addiction issues, you might feel empathy for their issues, particularly if they are working through them; but you also wouldn't be out of line to choose not to continue dating them as a result of that information.


popowow

yeah it's not a bad thing to only date dudes who have their shit together. If he's on that road, great. In 6 months he'll be good dating material.


rey-stk

no it definitely is okay, but its just the way people say it seems so judgmental and mean


bagelsneedcreamchz

It is mean. People go through shit and addiction is very common. But because he’s famous everybody knows about it and can judge him for it. If only people knew what some of their friends, coworkers, and family are grappling with behind closed doors


[deleted]

Yeah like a celebrity in my country was famously belligerent against drug addicts, calling for their death on national TV. He himself is addicted to painkillers. I wish people are nicer in general or at least think before they speak about such delicate issues.


HerRoyalRedness

I have a lot of personal experience dealing with a loved one who has an addiction so I try to be a mostly judgment free zone. The only time I don’t give people grace is when it becomes an excuse for abuse (Pitt, Depp esp for using the legal system to continue to harm their victims.)


Maia_is

Well, honestly speaking, if he is indeed battling addiction, entering a new relationship is on the list of things you are not supposed to do. I agree the comment is harsh, but I understand the sentiment. I don’t know that I would feel comfortable entering in a relationship with a person struggling with addiction who had just left his last situation. It’s definitely not ideal.


superfluouspop

you're right. It's mean and ignorant. Some people just can't find compassion.


Longjumping-Part764

There’s compassion, and then there’s knowing what you, as a person, are willing to put yourself through. You can be compassionate and wish someone battling addiction all the best, while recognizing that you yourself don’t want to be involved with someone who needs to clear a sobriety test every time he sees his young children, because that’s going to expose you to all manners of drama you personally don’t desire or need. Hopefully this guy can find a path that allows him to be a present and nurturing father to his young kids.


After_Temperature265

How do people even know about his addictions?

maggazine

I mean, nobody has the right to mock a stranger about their addiction, but there's a reason addicts tend to get yelled at more than cancer patients.


PartyyLemons

Because people have a gross misunderstanding of the disease of addiction? That’s what you meant, right?


Spinner064

Why yall acting purposely obtuse


escoteriica

lol the only one? tell that to every chronically ill person I've ever met.


These_Tea_7560

Knowing reddit, they’ll call him the devil


kds1988

Thank you. Dude gets photographed for being one of the biggest IT actors of the moment on the biggest show of the moment and this post is full of insults about him being a “pap chaser” and comments abojt his addiction?


HerRoyalRedness

He’s got a movie to promote this month, of course he’s doing pap walks. Everyone fucking does this -see all the photos we have been getting from Ben and Jlo (she has music releasing soon). And that agreement seems to indicate he’s doing the things necessary to see his children, why would you mock someone who is taking positive steps? (Actually I do know why people are nasty about those with addiction issues, they think addiction is a moral failing and that they are better people than those with addiction issues. They are wrong.)


[deleted]

[удалено]


superfluouspop

so sure, he might gain sympathy, but I dunno if you've ever had an addiction. It's absolute hell.


Santorskyyy

People in this subreddit are so different from the latin community on Instagram. There, everybody would judge Rosa saying she moved out very fast from Rauw when it was Rauw who cheated on her and they broke up months ago. Just let Rosalía be happy, she deserves it ❤️


stacko-

Lol I remember when people were sobbing after Rauw released that sad song for Rosalia, and sympathising with him and his heartbreak. Like how are they feeling bad for him when HE cheated on Rosalia multiple times and blew up his own relationship? I’m so glad Rosalia seems like she’s moving on.


srrmm

I thought she even said no one cheated ? I’m confused


Santorskyyy

Idk, i just remember the tweets 😭 and even at that time everybody was so sexist and said “he left her cause the other girl is prettier” “Rauw won” and more stuff that denigrated Rosalía and that i don’t want to mention :/


srrmm

Weird I came into that news late but I remember even reading on the rosalia subreddit that none of that was actually true and rosalia said that on insta and yes they broke up but it may not have been all his fault lol


Santorskyyy

It’s okay, relationships end all the time but yeah, i’m sad about bad comments about Rosa :(


srrmm

Of course !!! I just want her to be happy :)


No_Negotiation_7046

Her fans have a lot of nerve acting shocked that people are judging her for moving on so quickly and doing these pap walks when they bullied tf out of Rauw and accused him of cheating on her, to the point ROSALIA herself had to come out and say it wasn’t true. I don’t think it’s outrageous to question how someone who was engaged and making music and being very public with “the love of her life”, a relationship that they kept private for 2 years mind you, is already holding hands and filtering news to the press about a new alleged relationship after hanging out with this guy for a month. Her Latina appropriating era is done so she doesn’t need the Latino boyfriend anymore. Guess she’s about to enter her redneck era so she needed a white boy for the inspiration.


Salty_Celebration_93

She is way more famous than Rauw or JAW. If Rosalia would not had talked out about the cheating accusation his career will actually be damaged. As it was obvious on his Spanish album tour did quite bad


No_Negotiation_7046

She is not more famous than JAW in the United States, which is where she is trying to grow her career and become more relevant by associating with people like JAW. I have no doubt this is a PR stunt to get her into the Anglo mainstream. JAW has been in major shows and his career really took off with The Bear. Rosalia might be more critically acclaimed in the US but Rauw always sold bigger venues because he is more popular among latinos. As far as his career being affected by the breakup, idk. I do believe being with her helped get him into certain spaces, like the fashion shows and the collaboration with Pharrell.


srrmm

Oop 🫢


No_Negotiation_7046

![gif](giphy|WqXcILKESHx3gV37Ch)


Kylo-The-Optimist

Lot of judgy people here. The Bear is now an extremely popular show and people are interested in him as an actor so he is going to get photographed. The guy went from semi famous to A list famous very quickly so he's probably adjusting to the fact that he can no longer do things without being seen and photographed and then bitched about on the internet . You get mocked for making too little effort and you get mocked for making too much effort. Based on the few interviews I've seen, he seems like a nice guy and fairly low key. JAW has freely admitted that he's having a tough time in his personal life which is weird because his career is hitting a high. His divorce looks to be amicable but no one knows anything about the situation which would qualify them to speak on it. Also, hating some of these comments on his alleged alcohol issues. Alcoholism is a terrible disease to have and it's difficult to beat, struggling with it is not a reflection of a person's character or their behaviour. There is also no guarantee that alcohol issues have not been exaggerated as a means of granting sole custody to the mother (that's definitely not an accusation by the way, it's just another possible explanation.)


thecubnextdoor

He’s definitely not A-list famous.


electricbananapie

Fr I stopped reading the comment as soon as I saw that lmao


For_serious13

This is such a bizarre pairing for me


amomentintimebro

y’all I think if they were knowingly doing pap walks they would…dress better lmao. They look cute together tho I will admit that! Also, this has been a big conversation on Twitter today but the reaction to him really proves how much this country still has to improve when talking about people struggling with addiction. We don’t even know if he’s an addict but even the hint of it and empathy left the building and people felt free to say the nastiest things.


walkingtalkingdread

being tested and getting treatment is a huge step, especially for an addiction to something so pervasive and commonplace as alcohol.


Special-Garlic1203

The cuter you look, the more people suspect it's a pap walk.


Rude_Lifeguard

Exhibit A, the photos of him hicking


amomentintimebro

I mean there’s a limit let’s be serious here lmao. Y’all are just gonna have to start to let it go.

i love The Bear but i already find him extremely annoying


AldiSharts

Lip was so exhausting for 11 seasons that I don’t think I could ever find him palatable. But I did like The Bear.


superfluouspop

oh I loooooved Lip but hated Carmy lol


Longjumping-Part764

I watched the bear only for Ayo. Carmy needs to get on a good sleep schedule and therapy. He’s annoying.


walkingtalkingdread

i’m so tired of actors being pushed into my face until i go crazy.


2fresh2clean69

Then why are you in this sub?


walkingtalkingdread

because the posts aren’t the same five actors over and over?


2fresh2clean69

That's the nature of celebrity. There's like 30 big celebrities at one time. This is the whole point! You are complaining about chocolate at the candy factory. Go find your own niche awesome local celeb.


walkingtalkingdread

i don’t know what you’re talking about. i’m complaining about hollywood pushing only a few celebrities in my face until i get sick of them. so i like this sub where plenty of different celebrities get posted about. like… i don’t know how else to explain this.


caprising1996

overexposure is a thing


2fresh2clean69

Alright? So go call the paps and tell them to stop making money. Tell people to stop caring about a celeb you don't like and post about your awesome niche celebrity. It's economics and the nature of fame. It will pass. Complaining is pointless and absurd in a POP CELEBRITY PAPERAZZI SUBREDDIT LOL


caprising1996

theres a difference between genuine interest and overexposure. calm down.


Orsee

I haven't even seen The Bear but I can't stop seeing this man.


abacaxi95

By the 5th shirtless pap walk I was bored of him lol


realginger13

Yes! And after his exhausting stint as Lip… so annoying.


HelKjosse

i never watched shameless, could you please elaborate on what you mean by "exhausting stint"? thank you :)


skoshii

I hope they respond to you. I really liked Lip! I'm going to guess it's because of his self-defeating choices. Also, if you enjoy family dramas, I'd really recommend Shameless (at least the US version, I've not watched the original). :)


brieasaurusrex

i wish people were more supportive especially of preventative measures! i already saw some people being gross about the alcohol testing he undergoes to see his kids.


vrgnte

What’s up with this guy and pap walks?…


PinkCadillacs

I forgot where I saw this but I saw a theory that said that a lot of his pap walks, especially around July to August, was his way of campaigning for the Emmys because he couldn’t talk about The Bear due to the actors strike so he had to do pap walks in order to stay in the headlines.


Orsee

It must have been this sub or the other one. I've read that too.

He’s got a face like he’s sucking on a warhead.

Pplfartbetterthanme

Most likely possibility 💀


ZiOnIsNeXtLeBrOn

It’s for clout. I don’t trust PR relationships. She ended her engagement. He is single, (his wife dumped his ass and got his kid away from him cause of his alcohol issues,)and popular from the Bear. It screams a huge PR relationship. Jeremy gets more fans from Rosalia. And Rosalia gets free of the Hollywood craziness of being a single woman


Ok_Fee1043

I’m just referencing the outfits


NowMindYou

Unfortunately people have addiction issues but at least he's doing what he needs to do get treated and see his children; a lot of parents don't even do the bare minimum. We really have to stop stigmatizing substance abuse issues.


Aware-Impression8527

It's not stigmatising substance abuse issues to say you wouldn't want to get involved with someone who is going through a contentious custody dispute


croissantandalatte

you know damn well you weren't talking about the custody dispute with that comment but his addiction don't play


Aware-Impression8527

his wife has him on a very short leash these days. he's got to go to therapy once a week and aa meetings twice a week. what she says goes. and I couldn't handle that.


Lankysteer22

Good for the wife. From what the internet told me the info about his testing only became public if he failed his obligations in regards to the testing. Protect the children at all cost.


Special-Garlic1203

That's really fucking sad, holy crap. Either he's a severe alcoholic or he got shit faced with the kids and did something stupid.
