Celebs Spill Secrets on Dating App Disasters
18 Aug
Summary
- Many celebrities find dating apps disappointing.
- Some stars experienced being kicked off apps.
- Direct encounters and DM sliding were also tried.

Numerous celebrities have shared candid accounts of their trials and tribulations with dating apps. Olivia Rodrigo described her brief stint on Raya as 'vomit,' and Julia Fox admits to only occasionally browsing the app without going on dates. Dakota Fanning also tried Raya for fun, humorously confirming her husband wasn't on the app.
Beyond Raya, other stars faced unique challenges. Teri Hatcher was removed from Hinge for allegedly impersonating herself, and Sam Smith and Joey King both experienced being flagged as catfish. Andy Cohen reported being repeatedly kicked off various apps for impersonating himself.
Some celebrities have found success, like Adam Rippon meeting his now-husband on Tinder in 2018, leading to their engagement in Finland in February 2021. Bethenny Frankel met her ex-husband on an existing app, finding him to be 'better than advertised.'
Despite the mixed results, many continue to navigate the online dating world. Chrissy Metz found a connection on Bumble, while Laverne Cox met the love of her life on Tinder, though that relationship has since ended. These experiences highlight the varied and often surprising outcomes of celebrity online dating.
