15 Celebs Who Haven’t Realized They Aren’t Famous Anymore

13. Scott Disick

When you’re known for dating a celebrity famous for being famous such as Kourtney Kardashian, does that make you famous for dating someone famous for being famous? Regardless, Scott Disick’s split from Kourtney has cut his ties to the Kardashian fame, but that doesn’t seem to be stopping him from clinging to any ounce of stardom he can get. This includes dating a much younger Bella Thorne. Well, sometimes they’re dating, sometimes they’re just friends, and most of the time we’re really confused about their relationship altogether. And if it’s not Bella Thorne, then it’s a never-ending list of “mystery girls” only ever known for their hair color. This of course goes to show that Scott has really only ever been famous for the famous girlfriend he is associated with, and with his reckless behavior and crumbling romantic life, he doesn’t really have any star power to keep his name relevant for much longer.

12. Kelly Clarkson

Kelly Clarkson made a huge name for herself with a powerhouse voice as the winner of the first ever season of the television series American Idol. At that time in 2002 she could be seen everywhere from billboards, red carpets, and all over the tabloids promoting her record breaking hit songs. Of course, Google her name now and you probably won’t recognize her. Of course we’re not judging her fame solely on her looks because Kelly is gorgeous, it’s just been so long since we’ve heard from or about her that any changes would of course appear drastic. Since Kelly’s been gone she’s become a wife, a mom, and she recently played a surprise concert in Vancouver, Canada. And that’s really about it. Was it a surprise because she knew nobody would remember who she was and buy tickets? For someone with a celebrity platform launched from a reality television series, Kelly has had a good run and a fabulous career, but stardom just doesn’t seem to have a spot for her anymore.

11. Jonathan Cheban

Another man famous for knowing a Kardashian. In the early rising of the Kardashian fame empire, Jason Cheban made a name for himself by literally being known as “Kim Kardashian‘s best friend” on Keeping Up With The Kardashians. It’s not an uncommon cycle in the world of celebrity culture. After all, even Kim Kardashian got her start at stardom by cleaning and organizing Paris Hilton‘s closets. Of course, he then got his own reality series The Spin Crowd, which follows his old firm CommandPR. Considering most of us have never heard of it, it’s safe to say that without the iconic Kardashian name backing him up, Cheban would be just another guy in Public Relations in Hollywood. Known, but unknown, which seems to be the direction he’s heading now. As the Kardashians, Kim included, expand and grow into their own personal empires, it’s easy to forget about the little people that helped them along the way. Jason is, of course, included. Desperate to stay relevant, Jason even entered a season of Celebrity Big Brother, but made a shocking exit after only one week. Perhaps celebrity life just isn’t for him.
