'People can be cruel – I learned that early': US pop star Madison Beer on child fame and fan attacks

Madison Beer, just 26 years old, has navigated a challenging career path marked by swift online criticism, relationship drama, and personal struggles. At 13, she was catapulted into the spotlight when Justin Bieber shared her YouTube cover of Etta James's 'At Last.' Her subsequent rise to fame was slow-burning, with her music gaining traction over years of consistent effort.

Despite being thrust into the limelight at a young age, Beer has spoken candidly about the toll it took on her mental health. "People are so quick to be like: 'This is what's wrong with this person,' and attack someone's character," she recalls. This sentiment stems from an era when social media was becoming increasingly prevalent but labels still struggled to adapt.

Beer remembers being mercilessly trolled online, particularly during her teenage years. Her experience was marked by bullying, false accusations, and unwarranted scrutiny of her personal life. The emotional turmoil took a significant toll on Beer, eventually leading her to seek therapy and grapple with borderline personality disorder (BPD).

The turning point for Beer came when she realized that the constant barrage of hate online had taken a severe impact on her self-esteem. "It was definitely hard for years to detach from that ideology," she admits. "I don't want to diss myself here, but I haven't had No 1s, I haven't had gigantic songs – actually, that's not true, I think I have had gigantic songs, but [not] to people's criteria."

Beer has now found a sense of peace and acceptance within herself. She recognizes the imperfections in her personality and work and is determined to be authentic without worrying about external validation. Her new album, Locket, reflects this newfound self-awareness. Beer writes candidly about her relationships and personal struggles, embracing vulnerability and openness.

One significant challenge she faces with Locket is the risk of fans misinterpreting certain lyrics as references to specific individuals. "It's scary for me to release an album like this," Beer acknowledges. The importance of respecting people's privacy weighs heavily on her, particularly when it comes to past relationships.

Ultimately, success, according to Beer, lies in finding inner peace and happiness – a sentiment she hopes will transcend commercial or critical expectations. As she embarks on her latest tour and promotional efforts for Locket, Beer seems determined to stand by her art without apology or pretension.
 
🤔 I'm kinda with Madison Beer's vibe here - like, online criticism can be super harsh and it's easy to get sucked into trying to prove people wrong. But she's been open about her struggles with mental health and borderline personality disorder, which takes a lot of courage. It's interesting that she's finding acceptance in being imperfect and authentic, rather than trying to conform to expectations. The fact that she's willing to take the risk of fans misinterpreting certain lyrics shows she's not gonna compromise on her art or values for the sake of popularity. I love that she's prioritizing inner peace and happiness over external validation - it's a refreshing take in an industry that can be super cutthroat 💖

I'm so tired of people thinking that everyone has to be perfect online 🤯💔 Madison Beer's story is a real eye-opener - the constant hate she faced at such a young age must've been brutal 😩. I can imagine how it would affect anyone's mental health, especially when you're trying to navigate your 20s and figure out who you are.

The thing that resonates with me is how Beer talks about being authentic without worrying what others think 🤗. It's like, let's be real, we're all human (well, most of us 😜) and we make mistakes. What matters is how we learn from them and grow. Her new album Locket is all about embracing vulnerability, which I think is so important 💖.

I do worry about the risk of fans misinterpreting certain lyrics 🤔, but at the same time, I think it's great that Beer is willing to take that risk for her art 💕. Maybe we can all learn from each other's imperfections and find a sense of peace together 🌈.

I feel so bad for Madison Beer going through all that online drama at such a young age 🤕. It's wild to think about how brutal the internet can be, especially when you're already dealing with mental health struggles and identity issues. I can imagine it would be super tough to navigate the constant scrutiny and bullying, but it's amazing that she's come out on top and found her voice.

I'm loving her new album Locket, btw! 🎵 She's so brave for being vulnerable and honest about her personal life, and it's clear that she's not afraid to take risks and push boundaries. It's all about embracing your imperfections and not caring what others think – I think we could all learn from that 💖.

The way social media has evolved over the years is pretty wild 🤯. I mean, we're living in a time where people can just share their lives with millions of strangers, and yet, it's still super easy for them to tear each other down. Madison Beer's story is actually really relatable – being thrust into the spotlight at such a young age must've been overwhelming, especially when you're dealing with mental health issues on top of that 💔.

I think what's interesting about her journey is how she's found a way to be authentic and vulnerable without letting it affect her self-esteem. It's not always easy, I get it – there are still going to be people who try to bring her down or misinterpret her lyrics 🙄. But the fact that she's willing to take that risk and be honest about her experiences is actually really inspiring.

It makes me think about how we consume music and art – do we want it to be perfect, or do we want it to be real? For Beer, it seems like she's choosing the latter, and I think that's what makes her new album so special 🎶. It's not going to appeal to everyone, but for those who resonate with her story, it could be a game-changer 💥.
 
Wow 🤯 Madison Beer's story is so inspiring! I feel bad for what happened to her when she was younger tho 😞. It's crazy how online criticism can affect someone's mental health. But it's awesome that she's now focusing on being authentic and true to herself 🙌. Her new album Locket sounds really interesting 💖
 
OMG, I feel so bad for Madison Beer 🤕 She's been through so much since that whole Justin Bieber thing happened at 13 😲. I mean, can you even imagine having to deal with all that online drama and scrutiny from such a young age? 💔 It's crazy how social media can be like that. But hey, she's come out on top now and it's amazing to see her owning her art and being so honest about herself 🙌. I think we need more people who are willing to be vulnerable and authentic online... no pressure, but that'd be cool 😊
 
I feel so bad for Madison Beer going through all that online drama and mental health struggles 🤕 She's literally grown up in the public eye since she was 13 and it's crazy how social media can affect someone's self-esteem, especially when they're young 😒 I love how she's now being super authentic and open about her life, though – like, who wouldn't want to be able to talk about their relationships without people jumping to conclusions? 🤷‍♀️ It's refreshing to see her own her own journey and not try to hide behind a polished image. Can't wait to give her new album Locket a listen! 🎶
 
Ugh, social media platforms are literally sucking the life out of us 🤯... I mean, I get it, people need a space to express themselves online, but sometimes I feel like we're all just shouting into the void, waiting for someone, anyone, to respond 😩. And don't even get me started on how Madison Beer's story is so relatable – being thrust into fame at 13 and dealing with online trolls is like, woah 🤯... it's crazy that she had to deal with borderline personality disorder too. Anyway, I'm glad she's found a sense of peace about herself and her music, but can we please just be more considerate towards each other's mental health? 🤗
 
I'm so glad Madison Beer is finally speaking out about the toll online criticism took on her mental health 🤗💖 She's been through some stuff, you know? Being bullied and having false accusations thrown at her as a teenager was NOT cool 😡 I can imagine how hard it must've been to deal with that kind of negativity. But she's come out the other side and is now embracing vulnerability and openness in her music 🎶 It's awesome that she's prioritizing her own happiness and inner peace – we should all strive for that, right? 💖
 
I'm like totally torn about Madison Beer's new album 🤔. On one hand, I love how she's being so open and honest about her personal struggles and relationships. It takes a lot of courage to share that kind of stuff with the world 🌟. But at the same time, I can see why some fans might misinterpret certain lyrics as references to specific people... that would be pretty cringeworthy 🙅‍♀️. And on another hand, I think it's awesome that she's embracing her imperfections and not trying to be perfect for anyone else's sake 💁‍♀️.

I mean, I'm totally pro-Madison Beer and her new album, but at the same time... I don't know if I agree with her views on success 🤷‍♀️. Like, isn't it okay to want some validation from your fans and critics too? 😂 Sorry, I guess I'm just not being clear 💭.
 
Social media's a wild ride 🤯! Madison Beer's been through the wringer, and we should be giving her a round of applause for speaking out about mental health 💖. No one expects perfection, but it's refreshing to see someone own their flaws 😎. Time to shift the focus from criticism to appreciation – Beer's got some amazing songs 🎶!
 
idk why everyone's so hyped about madison beer's new album yet i think its gonna be a total snooze fest... she's been talking about how she struggles with mental health and relationships but honestly its all just riddled with cliche lyrics 🤔. i mean, who uses the phrase "i'm still figuring it out" in every single song? sounds like every other emo artist from the 2000s to me 💁‍♀️. and what's with all the drama about her past relationships? can't she just move on already? 🙄
 
😊 I feel like we're living in an era where people are more comfortable tearing others down online than uplifting them. It's crazy that Madison Beer had to deal with all that BS at such a young age. She's now owning it, though - her new album is honestly so raw and honest, it's inspiring to see someone be so vulnerable like that. I'm glad she's speaking out about mental health and BPD, too... we need more people having those conversations! 💖
 
You see, when we're faced with online criticism and negativity, it's easy to get caught up in trying to prove ourselves to others. But the truth is, our worth isn't defined by what others think of us 🤔. Madison Beer's story is a reminder that taking care of our mental health and self-esteem is key to navigating these challenges 💆‍♀️. By acknowledging her flaws and imperfections, she's been able to find peace and acceptance within herself. Let's not forget that true success comes from within – it's okay to take time for ourselves and prioritize our own happiness ❤️.
