00:00Living your life in front of millions of people is hard for anyone, especially celebrities.
00:08Whether they are child stars reaching adulthood or adults becoming woke,
00:11the celebs on this list are transitioning into totally new people.
00:15You won't believe all the things Bella Thorne has done to shed her Disney image.
00:18Stay tuned to see what they are.
00:20But before we get into it, don't forget to subscribe to our channel to see more videos like this.
00:24Now, let's take a look at 10 celebs who are going through an identity crisis.
00:28Selena Gomez
00:29It seems like singer Selena Gomez has had an interesting past couple of years.
00:34She's revealed her battle with lupus, cancelled the tour, and even got a new kidney.
00:38Not to mention the new beau in her life.
00:40So it's needless to say that she has been battling a little with her identity and her place in the world.
00:45When the singer cancelled her revival tour, many fans were worried about Selena's mental state.
00:49Many thought she had substance abuse issues or there was the possibility that the pop star was completely exhausted.
00:55But that actually wasn't the case.
00:56The singer went through what seemed like an identity crisis.
00:59She would get anxiety before and after getting on stage because she didn't feel good enough.
01:04She felt like her fans weren't getting anything from her shows and she basically felt like a fraud.
01:08The star went from performing for little kids to performing for grown-ups in their 20s and 30s, which completely changed the energy of her concerts.
01:15Selena even went as far as taking a hiatus from Instagram, which is a huge deal considering her massive following.
01:21Thankfully, it looks like all her hard self-work has paid off.
01:24The singer is getting healthier after her kidney transplant and she's even made it back to the studio.
01:29She is easing her way back into the spotlight and we couldn't be more excited to see what's next.
01:33Hey guys, we are so excited to announce we are producing our own original content.

01:48We love to hear from you.
01:49See you there.
01:52Bella Hadid
01:52It seems like you can't talk about Selena Gomez without someone mentioning Bella Hadid these days.
01:58We all know about their little spat at the beginning of 2017 when it was revealed that Selena was dating Bella's ex the weekend.
02:04But it now seems like water under the bridge.
02:07According to Bella's mom, the model has moved on and is completely over it.
02:10So, while she may be over her ex-boyfriend dating an international pop star,
02:14the internet can't get over a bizarre interview with the model that was posted online.
02:18In October 2017, Complex Magazine released an online video featuring an interview with Bella while she went sneaker shopping.
02:26The model revealed her likes and dislikes in the sneaker world.
02:29And she also let potential partners in on what shoes she likes her guys to wear.
02:33This may seem all fine and normal, but when she started using words like homeboy, dope, and fresh, many people began to cringe.
02:40In their eyes, the whole thing seemed a bit forced and it looked like the model may have been having an identity crisis,
02:45at least in the eyes of online watchers.
02:47The interview was so awkward that it was even turned into a meme in less than 24 hours.
02:51So, while we aren't sure if she really speaks like this in real life, she will be immortalized for it online forever.
02:57Yikes.
02:58Jim Carrey
02:58Speaking of bizarre interviews, actor Jim Carrey made headlines in 2017 for a string of strange interviews.
03:05We aren't sure we can call what Jim is having an actual identity crisis because, according to the star, he doesn't even have an identity.
03:12If you are confused, don't worry. So is everyone else. Here's what he has to say about the issue.
03:17He states that he erased himself and that during interviews, he isn't actually there.
03:22During a podcast show with actor-slash-comedian Norm MacDonald, Jim delved even deeper.
03:27He claimed he didn't need anyone or anything and that his lack of ego made it easier for him to live an identity-less lifestyle.
03:34Yeah, we aren't sure what that means either.
03:36People were obviously worried about the star after his confessions.
03:39But if you were to ask him, he'd tell you he's never been happier.
03:43This all comes after years of battling depression and a lawsuit involving the passing away of an ex-girlfriend.
03:48We aren't sure if this is some sort of phase the actor is going through or if this is the new Jim Carrey we all have to get used to.
03:54Though we are sad to see that funny man no longer putting on a mask to crack up audiences, we are happy to see he is at peace with his life.
04:02Misha Barton
04:03Back in the mid-2000s, there was nothing Misha Barton couldn't do.
04:07She was the star of a hit TV show, The O.C.
04:09She was even being invited to all the swanky Hollywood events like Oscars After Parties and the Golden Globes.
04:15The young actress had become Hollywood's latest It Girl, but it didn't last long.
04:19During the third season of her hit show, the actress decided it was time for a break.
04:23Her character was written off and she moved back to the UK, where she was born to find herself.
04:27It seems like this is where the star's fall from grace began.
04:30Soon she started showing erratic behavior.
04:33She was hospitalized after a barbecue in LA, claiming she drank too much alcohol with her antibiotics.
04:38Then, not long after that, she was arrested for a DUI.
04:41This caused her to be the center of attention in celebrity magazines.
04:45In the years since, the actress has tried to stage comebacks.
04:48She even tried her hand at Dancing with the Stars, but was voted off the second week.
04:52Then, in early 2017, Misha was spotted having a bizarre meltdown on her back patio after a night out celebrating her birthday.
04:59It was revealed that someone slipped the drug GHB into her drink, which could have altered her behavior.
05:04But according to her neighbors, this wasn't an isolated event.
05:07We aren't sure what is really going on with Misha, but she did step out looking better than ever at the 2017 Cannes Movie Festival.
05:14So hopefully things are looking up.
05:16Erin Carter
05:17Back in the late 90s, early 2000s, Erin Carter was everyone's favorite teen pop star.
05:22Thanks to his famous big brother, the young singer was able to capture the hearts of tween girls around the world.
05:27But by the time he became an adult, his spotlight began to fade.
05:31It seemed like his troubles started in his teen years.
05:33In 2003, Erin filed for legal emancipation from his mother, claiming she stole $100,000 from him.
05:40But by 2013, the star filed for bankruptcy.
05:43He claimed it was from purchases made in his younger years when his finances were out of control.
05:48As if that wasn't enough, Erin started having legal and health issues.
05:51The most concerning was in July 2017, when the celeb was arrested for a DUI after someone reported his erratic driving.
05:59During the arrest, officers found illegal substances in his car, which he claimed were used to treat his anxiety.
06:04The most shocking part of his arrest, to fans at least, was Erin's appearance in his mugshot.
06:09The star was a shadow of his former self, standing at 6 foot tall and weighing 115 pounds.
06:15He explained he lost weight because of health issues, but when he was on the talk show The Doctors, he tested positive for opiates.
06:21He also revealed he was bisexual and his plastic surgery history.
06:25It sounds like the star is going through a lot, and we just hope he gets all the help he needs and comes back out on top.
06:30Miley Cyrus
06:32After Miley Cyrus shed her innocent Disney star persona, many people were wondering what was next.
06:37If there was anything to be learned from her Bangers tour, it was that Miley was a whole new person.
06:41She traded her long brown locks for a short bleached pixie, and her tongue became more famous than her music.
06:47Plus, no one will ever forget the twerking scandal from the 2013 MTV VMAs.
06:51It seemed like the once child star was going through an identity crisis.
06:55No one was sure what direction she was going in, and it looked like she was a little confused herself.
07:00But since 2015, it seems like the star has been a little bit out of the spotlight.
07:04She popped up every now and then in tabloids, but for the most part, she kept a low profile.
07:09So much so that even her Facebook fan page started losing followers at a rate of 5,000 fans a day.
07:14Fast forward to October 2017, and it seemed like the celeb had done a complete 180.
07:19She grew her hair back out, dressed more conservatively, and swapped her pop music in for something close to her home.
07:25Country music
07:26Fans seemed to respond well to the new maid under Miley.
07:29Her Facebook fan page started to get more likes, and it seemed like she is gaining more respect as an artist in the music industry.
07:35What do you think about Miley's make-under? Let us know in the comments.
07:38James Franco
07:39Those of you who are James Franco fans probably already know the guy keeps really busy.
07:44Whether he is teaching acting classes, writing books, directing movies, or painting masterpieces,
07:48The guy has a full schedule.
07:50That was all fine until he hit a wall in November 2016.
07:53The self-professed workaholic decided to take a step away from working so much to focus on himself.
07:58He claimed it happened after Donald Trump was elected president.
08:01It made the actor take a step back and look at his life and the way he was living.
08:05He had been working so much that it affected his relationships.
08:08Well, he actually didn't even have relationships because he was too busy.
08:12To him, working was a way to escape from feelings and other people.
08:15It was much easier for him to dive into work instead of dive into something serious with emotions involved.
08:20So, when he stopped working, all those feelings he had been trying to ignore slowly crept up and he had to face reality.
08:26The actor seems to be in a much better place.
08:29He's still dealing with his work addiction, but the star is giving himself a lot more time to enjoy life away from his many jobs.
08:35And now that he has more time on his hands, maybe we'll see him with a lady on his arm in the near future.
08:40Katy Perry
08:41Since the beginning of her career, Katy Perry has been stripped of her real identity.
08:45She grew up in a Pentecostal household and had a completely different name, Katherine Hudson.
08:50Which seems like a far cry from the girl who sang about kissing girls, right?
08:54While she may have already gone through an identity crisis back then, it seemed like the star went through another one in 2017.
09:00She chopped off her famous long locks and started rocking a bleach pixie cut, reminiscent of Miley's old do.
09:06But a haircut isn't enough to change someone's whole persona.
09:09What made fans even more confused was the new direction her music started to take.
09:13It seemed like the star was confused about her role in the pop music industry.
09:17The singer confessed that she is yet another artist affected by the 2016 presidential election.
09:22After campaigning for Hillary Clinton, Katy claims she became woke and shed every part of her former pop star self.
09:29The star faced a lot of backlash from people who claimed she was appropriating many different cultures over the years.
09:34Facing all the things she did as a new social justice warrior left her broken.
09:38She was so done with being Katy Perry that she didn't even want to look like her anymore, hence why she chopped off her hair.
09:44We aren't sure where this new woke Katy Perry is heading, but we are hoping it is in the right direction for her personal happiness.
09:51Justin Bieber
09:51It's hard to believe that Justin Bieber started as a little tween singing into his camera for YouTube videos.
09:57Just look at how far he's come.
09:59Sure, he's had his ups and downs, but the guy is always striving to be better.
10:02One thing that didn't help his public image, though, was the cancelling of his Purpose tour.
10:07Though fans weren't thrilled at first, when Justin revealed why he needed a break, they understood.
10:11The singer claimed he needed time to himself to heal and focus on his happiness.
10:15He even got support from other people in the music industry like John Mayer.
10:19What fans didn't expect was that the singer might have decided to make a career change.
10:23Apparently, in September 2017, Justin invited show business vets Adam Sandler and David Spade out to dinner.
10:29He wanted to pick their brains about breaking into the movie industry.
10:33It was rumored the singer wanted to break into acting, directing, and producing.
10:36So, he was trying to learn everything he could in the process.
10:39If this rumor is to be believed, then we can't wait to see the Biebs on the big screen.
10:43Fingers crossed, this little dream of his actually becomes a reality.
10:47We don't know about you, but we would be first in line to see anything starring the hunky singer.
10:51Bella Thorne
10:52If you are a fan of everything Disney, then you might be familiar with Bella Thorne from the Disney Channel show Shake It Up.
10:58This is what she looked like back then, and this is what she looks like now.
11:02Seems like a stark contrast, right?
11:03Well, according to the star, it was actually in her Disney days that she had an identity crisis.
11:08She claimed she was never the clean-cut girl she appeared to be on camera.
11:12But we have a hard time believing she was as wild as she is now back then either.
11:16Bella is the latest Disney star to do a 180 in an attempt to shed her seemingly innocent past.
11:22She did so by showing off her body, coming out as bisexual, piercing several parts of her body, and partying throughout the night.
11:28It doesn't help that she's been linked to notorious bad boy womanizer Scott Disick.
11:32She pushed things even further after her 20th birthday in October 2017 when she cut off her infamous long locks.
11:39Pair that with her bizarre fashion sense and unpredictable lifestyle, we aren't sure what she will do next.
11:44We are pretty sure she doesn't either.
11:46Either way, as long as she is happy and fulfilled with her life, then who are we to judge?
11:51Are you shocked by any of the stars who appeared on this list?
11:55Let us know in the comment section below.
11:56Thanks for tuning in, and don't forget to give this video a big thumbs up.
