The Most Bizarre Celebrity Conspiracy Theories Of All Time

Everything you thought you knew about your fave celebrities is a lie! To begin with, sometime in 2003, Avril Lavigne died and was replaced with a look-a-like. It was a Brazilian blogger that claimed this and provided pictures from 2003 until now where the singer’s nose, wrist, and birthmarks look different. Oh and apparently there are clues in her lyrics. “That day you slipped away was the day I found it won’t be the same,” Lavigne sang in 2004.

There may be a dark secret in the Knowles family that involves these “sisters.” According to theories, Beyoncé became pregnant and gave birth to a baby when she was young, which her family covered up by raising the baby as her sister. However, given Solange was born five years after Beyoncé, this seems unlikely. However, theorists say Beyoncé was not actually born in 1981 and that her real birth certificate hidden by her parents shows she was born in 1974. If true, she looks great for her age.

Taylor Swift doesn’t wear high-waisted outfits for a fashion statement, but she does it to cover up the fact that she doesn’t have a belly button! This is not the first conspiracy about the singer, but certainly the strangest. The evidence is hundreds of pictures where her waistband conveniently falls above where her belly button should be. Taylor put an end to the theory in 2015, “I don’t like showing my belly button. When you start showing your belly button, then you’re really committing to the midriff thing,” Swift said.

The theory emerged in 2014 when the singer told Rookie magazine that she related to the 1999 film as a teen, “The Virgin Suicides really resonated with me as a teenager. I mean, I am still a teenager,” Lorde said. Many considered this quote to be a slip-up in Lorde’s big secret. It would also mean that Lorde would need to have been born in the early ’80s and would make her 40-years-old now. The singer fueled the theory saying, “I’m actually 45,” as a joke, of course.

Britney Spears was used by a US President as a way to distract the world from his administration’s mistakes. It is believed that Britney’s 2007 meltdown year, which included her shaving her head, was all a result of her working as an instrument for the administration to take the attention off the president. More precisely, on November 6, 2007, Britney Spears and Kevin Federline announced their split a day before a key midterm election. Good excuse for her behavior – but we’re not buying it, Brit!

JonBenét Ramsey is the 6-year-old beauty queen whose unresolved murder is one of the most mysterious of our time. However, according to some people, the pageant child never died and is actually known today as pop star Katy Perry. The theory first arrived in a YouTube video in 2014 which pointed to evidence that there are similarities between the two as well as between their parents. The theory went viral and is one of the most well-known in the celeb conspiracy theory world.

Stevie Wonder, the legendary singer-songwriter famous for being blind, has just been pretending for the last six decades. According to ESPN’s Bomani Jones, the artist frequently attends basketball games, once caught a mic stand, is interested in photography, and has once taken a photo. It seems the Wonder does all this and other things that are typical of people who can see. Furthermore, in 2016, Stevie was seen “looking down” at an envelope to present an award at the Grammys.

A theory believed by some people out there who have popped a crazy pill or two claims that the CIA murdered Bob Marley because he and other reggae musicians were working together to alert the public of the CIA’s attempt to bring down the Jamaican Prime Minister, Michael Manley. To add to the conspiracy, ex-agent Bill Oxley confessed on his death bed to killing the artist. Whether the ex-CIA agent was telling the truth or not, we may never know.

A theory out there claims that the Beatles star, Paul McCartney, actually died in a car accident in 1966 and was replaced by a look-a-like. Proof? When played backward, words in the track “Revolution 9” sound suspiciously like “Turn me on, dead man.” To add to this, at the end of their other hit “I’m So Tired,” there is mumbling. When played backward this can be imagined as “Paul is a dead man. Miss him. Miss him. Miss him.” Fans are continuing to uncover clues.

According to a very credible website, Keanu Reeves has an immortal soul and has lived thousands of years through a number of identities, all of which have been famous. According to the site, “If you have any additional information about the identities that Keanu assumed during his everlasting life or any theory about the source of his power” then you should let them know at info@keanuisimmortal.com. While the claims seem farfetched you can see that Reeves barely changes throughout the years in pictures.

Back in 2016, former One Direction band member, Louis , became a dad to baby Freddie. Since then, he and the baby’s mom have remained hidden from the spotlight. Fans suggest the baby is either a doll or doesn’t exist. The conspiracy named “Babygate” was founded on the idea that the whole pregnancy, birth, and photos of Freddie were faked to distract the world from “Larry Stylinson” – the supposed secret relationship between Louis Tomlinson and fellow band member Harry Styles (the name is a combination of their first and last names).

Apparently, sharing a name with the wife of William Shakespeare means that maybe Anne Hathaway is married to the man himself, but reincarnated, obviously. Anne is actually married to Adam Shulman, who could be the famous writer in a new life. To be fair, the resemblance is pretty uncanny. “Shakespeare made a deal with his wife: ‘I get to be famous in this life and you get to be famous in the next,'” one person theorized.

Bieber is not just a lizard, but a shapeshifting one at that. In 2017, he was seen by an eyewitness in Australia transforming into a lizard in daylight. Websites then offered other “quotes” from eyewitnesses saying, “He was hanging around with this big guy, his bodyguard I guess, and we were just staring because he kept turning into a huge reptile.” His bodyguard threatened them if they didn’t put their phones away. If Justin doesn’t like having his photo taken, it is now clear why.

While one conspiracy theory suggests she is the mother of her sister, another says Beyoncé was never actually pregnant with her daughter Blue Ivy Carter. Instead, she and Jay-Z used a surrogate. This came about when Beyoncé sat down for an interview and the video footage showed her belly apparently folding. Some say that Blue Ivy is the remaking of Eulb Yiv, Satan’s daughter, although it is not quite clear where these bizarre people got this idea from.

As there was a lot left unknown, the death of the Hollywood legend Marilyn Monroe remains one of Hollywood’s greatest mysteries. While authorities claimed that her death was likely caused by suicide, many believe she was murdered instead. Why? There are many reasons, and they include being killed by the Mafia because of her alleged involvement with the Kennedys, the fact she “knew” UFOs exist, and that the CIA killed her because she discovered secret intel about Area 51.

A year after filming the sci-fi classic 2001: A Space Odyssey, the theory goes that the U.S. government hired Stanley Kubrick to fake the Apollo 11 moon landing in 1969. The reason? Filmmaker Patrick T. Murray claims to have Kubrick on tape just days before his death in 1999 confessing to this. Despite this, his daughter refused to believe the conspiracy saying, “But, claims that the moon landings were faked and filmed by my father? I just can’t understand it!!?” Another thing that proves otherwise is, well, science!

While Hiddleswift dominated celebrity gossip for weeks in 2016, many are skeptical about Tayloe Swift and Tom Hiddleston’s relationship. Firstly, there is a conspiracy that she cheated on Calvin Harris and used Hiddleston to cover it up. Many say their romance was a publicity stunt for both of them. Pictures were taken too often of the couple in front of windows at restaurants and it was as though they were reading from a script when talking about one another.

Was it lucky or just simply a mistake? In 1993, newcomer actress Marisa Tomei won an Academy Award for her role in My Cousin Vinny. She was in the running against other more well-respected actors nominated for heavier roles. However, conspiracy theories started to spread that the 74-year-old presenter Jack Palance had read out the wrong name. In 1994, Hollywood Reporter wrote, “…last year Marisa Tomei received her Oscar statue by error, with a resultant scandal about it soon to be exposed.”

The legendary American rapper, known as 2Pac, had reportedly died from getting involved in a shooting back in 1996 after leaving a boxing match. However, some conspiracy theorists believe this to be a hoax and that the artist used his “death” to escape to Cuba from his increasingly dangerous celebrity status. What makes this believable? Firstly, the shooters were never found. Secondly, 2Pac always wore a bulletproof vest. And thirdly, the man who cremated the rapper strangely retired immediately afterward.

When season two of Stranger Things aired on Netflix, fans noticed that new character Dacre Montgomery, who plays Billy, has a striking resemblance to the popular actor Zac Efron. This began a barrage of memes, tweets, and comments with impressed fans. The resemblance was so alike that people began to announce that Billy was actually Zac Efron’s father in the Stranger Things universe. But will Efron then make an appearance in a later season? We will see…

This photo was taken in 2008, which was seven years after Steve Jobs tragically died of pancreatic cancer at the age of 56, someone posted an image online of a man in Egypt who looks a hell of a lot like Steve Jobs. “Steve Jobs is hiding in Egypt after faking his death,” the post reads. While there are similarities, many people have noticed that he’s not wearing an Apple Watch. All we can say is that with or without the watch, we remain unconvinced.

Some believe that multiple doppelgangers have steadily replaced Megan Fox over the years. For whatever reason, her own fans came up with this insane theory that she doesn’t actually exist but has been replaced by newer versions of herself at several points in her career. As the theory goes, her appearance has changed so much that she must be an entirely different person. There’s also the possibility of plastic surgery, but doppelgangers make much more sense…

This theory has been around for a while now, but with time it has lost its appeal. The assumption is that Prince Harry’s dad is actually someone other than Prince Charles, but a man named James Hewitt. After Princess Diana passed away, former British Army officer, James Hewitt, claimed he had an affair with her from 1986 to 1991. One look at the guy, and it’s no surprise some people really think he’s Prince Harry’s real dad. Well, they don’t look un-alike…

We all know that actors and actresses are incredibly dedicated to their work, so much so that they will stage all kinds of stunts to stay relevant—kind of like Jennifer Lawrence, who fell at the Oscars in 2014. Many in the audience felt Jennifer Lawrence faked or exaggerated the infamous 2014 awards show fall that almost took down three of her celeb peers. According to these discerning observers, Lawrence pulled the stunt to maintain her adorably clumsy, approachable name.

After some very devout fans slowed down some of Nicki Minaj’s songs, they discovered her voice sounds an awful lot like Jay-Z. So that would mean that Nicki Minaj is obviously Jay-Z’s voice sped up. So Nicki Minaj is apparently Jay-Z’s Female Alter-Ego. Jay-Z is one of the biggest names in the industry and he dominated the music biz as a male… why not as a female? And the blonde lady? She’s just a cover. That’s the story, and they’re sticking to it.

According to this bizarre theory, Lindsay Lohan always had a twin, but she passed away. That would mean that The Parent Trap actually featured both Lindsay Lohan and her real twin, “Kelsey.” After filming was done, “Kelsey” Lohan tragically passed away in a car accident, and Disney covered it up so the highly popular film could feature on schedule. Fans of this theory believe that’s why Lindsay has turned to illicit substances, out of guilt and shame for her deceased twin.

Frustrated by her lack of success, then-backup dancer Lady Gaga decided to take the life of artist Lina Morgana and assumed her identity, copying her look and style. She did this all for the sake of fame and fortune. If we’re totally honest with ourselves, we would be asking, who is Lina Morgana? Most people haven’t heard of her and according to believers, Gaga’s “Monster” is all about Morgana’s murder and the man who helped Gaga pull it off.

We can all recall that time when Kristen Stewart was photographed kissing her director behind Robert Pattinson’s back? Apparently, that was all part of their plan. This theory claims that Kirsten and Robert faked their split in the most public way possible not only to amplify publicity for their respective films but to protect their relationship’s privacy for the rest of their lives. While Kirsten has since been seen dating female partners, the conspiracy theorists claim one of them was her cousin doing them a favor.

Kurt Cobain’s fans are still heartbroken by his tragic passing, so much so that they made an entire documentary based on this sad and crazy theory. In Soaked in Bleach, the case is made that Courtney Love convinced one of Kurt Cobain’s friends to kill him and make it look like Kurt did it. The theory alleges that Courtney Love was so panicked that Cobain was going to leave her, she freaked out and had him offed so she could keep all his money. All we’re wondering is, did Courtney have the wherewithal to have pulled this off?

It would seem that the social curiosity that drives people to speculate about celebrities’ love lives is pervasive and common. One of these theories includes Louis Tomlinson, of One Direction’s, who faked the birth of his son. Apparently, he was concerned the world would reject Louis Tomlinson’s secret love with fellow One Direction bandmate Harry Styles. Hence, their record label falsified the birth of Tomlinson’s son, Louis, with his ex-girlfriend, Brianna. The conspiracy is now referred to as “baby gate” and gained traction on Twitter in 2015.

Katie Holmes has taken many precautions to ensure her daughter’s life remains private, but what if there’s more to it than that? Holmes used her ex-husband’s strange behavior and unusual beliefs as excuses for keeping Suri away from her “dad,” but some have speculated that the real reason is that Tom Cruise isn’t her father at all. Instead, Suri is Chris Klein’s child, since Holmes dated Klein right before she started seeing Cruise, and the timeline does fit given that Suri wasn’t seen publicly for the first five months of her life.

There’s another Beatles conspiracy theory out there, and this time it’s that John Lennon wasn’t killed by Mark David Chapman in 1980, but by none other than Stephen King. According to proponents of this theory, King must be the real murderer of John Lennon because King kind of looks like Chapman. He had permission to murder Richard Nixon and Ronald Reagan, who were both annoyed by Lennon’s pacifist efforts. It’s definitely a weird theory, but that is what this list is all about.

In the early 2000s, Eminem was one of the biggest rappers to ever hit the scene. But after his 2004 album, “Encore,” he took a five-year break before coming out with “Relapse.” Why the long hiatus? Mathers attributes it to writer’s block. But according to a conspiracy theory post, the Illuminati tried to recruit Eminem, which he refused, and so the Illuminati eliminated him through a car crash. Then the Illuminati fabricated a new Eminem to replace the old one. Umm, ok.

Taylor Swift’s uncanny resemblance to the former high priestess of the church of Satan, Zeena Schreck, has been common knowledge on the internet for quite some time now. And all the rumors of a more profound connection have reached a fever pitch recently. Obviously, the two women have a few things in common that make it difficult to ignore, but can their connection merely exist on the surface? This theory may be crazy but the evidence is hard to shake off.

When Nina Grunfeld, a Norweigan Filmmaker, looks at J.K. Rowling, she doesn’t see one of the all-time greatest rags-to-riches stories. She saw a cover-up. Grunfeld put forward her theory in a newspaper article that asked, “Is it possible that one person can write six thick books and sell more than 250 million copies in less than ten years?” Grunfeld says, “No.” What’s more probable, is that the woman we know as Rowling is an actress behind the franchise that was manufactured up by others intent on creating a multimedia cash cow.

The elusive question here is, did Bob Dylan actually write his classic folk anthem “Blowin’ in the Wind”? It would seem that the answer, my friend, is no, according to this conspiracy. This theory first surfaced in 1963 in an article that “threw Dylan into a depression for months,” according to his biography. The song was supposedly written by a New Jersey high-school student named Lorre Wyatt. Dylan bought the song from Wyatt, or stole it, depending on which version of the story you believe, and put it on his second album.

For those looking for a glimmer of hope, there could hardly be more heartwarming news. Apparently, the King of Rock’ n’ Roll, Elvis Presley, is alive and well. The theory is that Elvis orchestrated his own death to get away from fame and the public eye, and in the 40 years since he ‘died,’ Elvis has been enjoying an active life and eventually settled in Argentina. So Elvis, if you’re out there and have access to the internet, feel free to let us know you’re there!

Just before he died in a fiery car crash, Paul Walker was hosting an event for his charity Reach Out WorldWide to benefit victims of Typhoon Haiyan in the Philippines. Conspiracy theorists say Typhoon Haiyan was the wrong disaster to help with. As ever, though, that won’t stop those who leap to blame the Illuminati for every celebrity death. In Walker’s case, the secret society wanted him dead because he wanted to leave acting. And they simply could not have that.

The state of affairs surrounding the death of Brittany Murphy and her husband, Simon Monjack, which both occurred within five months of each other, are definitely strange. While a coroner credited both to pneumonia and anemia, several other theories came out in the aftermath of their passings. One such theory implicated that there must have been some suspicious agenda behind their deaths after a toxicology report came back with results that were positive for “ten heavy metals,” leading many people to believe that she was intentionally poisoned.

Pippa Middleton was talked about for months after her sister’s royal wedding, and it was her perky caboose that stole the show. Many have speculated that she intentionally wore a fake derrière to emphasize her behind. She was going to be on international television, so we don’t really judge her. Numerous royal experts agree: Kate Middleton’s little sister, Pippa, wore a butt emphasizer of some sort to her sister’s wedding to Prince William in 2011. She looked terrific, though, so what’s the problem?

It has been said that basically all celebrities are members of the Illuminati, which, according to its website, “is an elite organization of world leaders, business authorities, innovators, artists, and other influential members of this planet.” They are tasked with ensuring the survival of every human on the planet. Beyoncé even “confirmed” her involvement when she sang, “Y’all haters corny with that Illuminati mess,” during her track “Formation.” Other celebrities allegedly involved are Lindsay Lohan, Rihanna, and Kim Kardashian.

And we are not talking about the numerous amounts of plastic surgery she has had. Apparently, this K is not actually a true Kardashian. People have accused Khloé of actually being the daughter of OJ Simpson. The theory that has been lingering for years was re-awakened by Amber Rose in 2015 during a Twitter feud. Khloé herself saw the light of the situation and referred to the conspiracy saying, “Some days I’m OJ’s daughter. Others I’m Robert’s daughter.”

Cage may be many types of actor, but to some, he is also a vampire. The conspiracy emerged when a photo taken in 1870 of a man that has a truly striking resemblance to the actor appeared on eBay. The man who posted the picture believes Cage is a vampire who reinvents himself every 75 years or so. However, for the most part, his roles in Vampire’s Kiss and Ghost Rider are where his bloodsucking days end. Nicolas pointed out himself the fact you can’t take photographs of vampires.

MJ’s daughter, Paris Jackson, posted a photo to Instagram of herself in a car. Immediately, conspiracy theorists and social media users used the photo as “proof” that the figure in the back of the car was Michael Jackson himself. Despite an LA coroner confirming his body was in the bag, theorists continue to seek the “truth.” There’s a whole website dedicated to “sightings” of the King of Pop. Some even say that he faked his death to make more money through sales.

In addition to her many other conspiracy theories, Swift has been accused of yet another publicity stunt. Many believe that her almost eight-year-long beef with Kanye West was completely made up. Despite the pair appearing like they hate each other and putting all that effort into their disagreements, these two may have more in common than we thought and their fight has just been for show. Oh, and they are both part of the Illuminati!
