I have to think that the only positive reviews for this site are from the author “Kaiser” herself. This isn’t celebrity or royal gossip; it’s a published manifesto of a grown woman’s tragic over-identification with absolute strangers. She revels in commentary of like-minded sycophants who seem to revel in cackling together over finding reasons to hate one girl in a school yard and fawn over another. It perpetuates adolescent nastiness to the point where I pity more than half of the people involved. Successful gossip sites are light hearted and even-handed. They don’t delve into the pathological re-creation of an alternate world wherein there is “good and evil” in a royal family…a group of people who are emotionally stunted on the best of days and have literally no other job in this life than to curate a public image.

The most hateful site I’ve come across. Not even a fan of the royal family but Kate Middleton and Meghan Markle should look into getting a restraining order against the head writer, Kaiser. This site should not exist. I’m rating one star because I can’t rate zero.

Kaiser is a neurotic control freak with ISSUES
I had been a loyal reader for over a decade. I almost always skipped right to the comments, where there was often intelligent and engaging discussions being had. I had been finding the main writer, Kaiser, increasingly annoying and hypocritical. BUT there were/are some great regular commenters who I always enjoyed.
For about the first 8 years, I was a lurker. I never commented myself, despite those being the main draw for me. Only a couple years ago did I actually find myself motivated to comment, mainly on all the royal drama. I should mention, I absolutely support Harry & Meghan. Regarding those two, my opinion is very much aligned with that of Celebitchy and Kaiser. So when I started noticing that my comments about them weren't making it past moderation, OR posting, but then disappearing shortly afterwards, i was perplexed. And when it started happening regularly, and I realized it wasn't just a glitch in the commenting program they use, I was EXTREMELY offended. Were my comments not good enough for Kaiser?? I was just SO shocked and insulted that, after taking the time and putting in the effort to commenting, that half of them would be REJECTED so unceremoniously.
First, I emailed the site. I was very polite, I just asked them why so many of my comments were blocked, especially when they agreed with the writers??? No reply. I emailed AGAIN. No reply.
Then I figured that, since Kaiser blocks so many of my comments, I may as well ask what her deal in the comments. And so I did. This time I wad a lot more terse. I provided my email in case she cared to reply. She did not. At that time I upgraded my phone, and realized that by using a new screen name, she would have no idea it was me. It worked for a while. Then came the day that I posted a rather long comment. It certainly wasn't the longest comment I've ever seen on the site, it probably wasn't even the longest comment posted that DAY. Well, after I attempted to write a 2nd comment, I saw that Kaiser had blocked me from even being able to SUBMIT a comment.
Around that time I discovered the Tumblr site about Celebitchy, and discovered that I was not alone!! There were others like me! I wrote a nice, long bitchfest about Kaiser. Eventually I discovered Celebitchy Underground on Reddit, which was similar to the Tumblr page. But I soon realized that the subreddit was NOT comprised of people like me (although there were a few), but rather Yankee Wally and St Meghan Markle enthusiasts, who I found repugnant. Up until that realization, I wrote a number of screeds criticizing Kaiser.
Recently, on the site Pajiba, I was reading the comments and saw that someone had brought up Celebitchy, and was saying how it had gone downhill, etc etc. I jumped RIGHT in and wrote a nice, long bitchfest about Kaiser and her f*cked up rampant censoring/blocking of comments.
It wasn't long after that I found that once again, she had blocked my ability to even submit a comment, but this time, it wasn't JUST in one article that I was blocked from commenting, it was the WHOLE site. I think it's safe to assume that my screed on Pajiba had been brought to her attention, or something.
What I don't understand is HOW Kaiser is going to get mad about people complaining that she blocks their comments, when she DOES in fact block their comments??? What does she expect??? What is WRONG with her????? WHAT an ass.......

Yep - still deleting comments critical of meghan
Yep, CB, and especially Kaiser, are still activing attacking anyone who criticizes Meghan and Harry. The only comments allowed are those that agree with Kaiser about how perfect these two are.
As soon as I saw the news about Meghan and Harry being chased at high speed through New York,I had to go to CB for a laugh. I read the one article about the chase, and then skimmed through the comments, with all of them screaming the photographers should be arrested, why isn't the royal family condemning this - Oh, right, racist white people!.
At the bottom, comment 93 at 3:36 by Kim P. said this - "the cab driver said it wasn't a car chase. It would be impossible with NYC's stop-and-go traffic. The story is very fishy. Who drives around NYC for two hours"
As soon as I saw that, I made a note because I knew THAT wouldn't be allowed. And now, this morning, the comment has been deleted, lol! Doesn't matter how many times Meghan stretches the truth, she will not be criticized!!
This site is such a joke. Kaiser is the worst - I'll check it once or twice a week now at best, and rarely read anything. Well, at least Kuckoo Kaiser still gives me a laugh sometime.

This website is full of misogynist…
This website is full of misogynist women. The irony is that they think they are feminist with a very woke mentality but they are the most hateful women out there. If you don’t think like them you are immediately a racist or a troll. They hate Taylor swift and Kate Middleton but Megan Markle is their idol. They don’t hesitate to mock the physique of other women. Calling Kate Middleton ugly or Taylor swift a slut. It’s quite pathetic. They also have an obsession with the royals. They even mock the queen when she passed. Most of the women on this site are mentally deranged for sure. This is one of the worst website on the internet for sure i hope it will close at some point

I’m done
I used to be ride or die for this website. Read it for years. Loved the gossip. Loved their humour. Commented. Told my friends.
But all the celebrity stories and the fun have been lost due to the site runner’s obsession with MM. I’m actually v sympathetic to Meghan and Harry but I can’t read one more word about them. The level of coverage is actually insane. It’s ruining their whole brand. I’m done.

The people that work for this website …
The people that work for this website are deranged lunatics and the comments are just as deranged. Please stay away from this website as it will make you bitter and distort your view with the constant onslaught of repetitive junk. They not anything other than a couple of stupid nobodies with a keyboard.

What happened to celebitchy
What happened to celebitchy? this used to be fun and harmless, was my go to site from 2011! I'd be on there twice a day at least, switching between it and dlisted! but around 2019 it started to get sort of mean girl on Kate The now Princess of Wales.. it stepped up in 2020 and became a daily anti royal (anyone in the royal family that wasn't harry and meghan) site. As someone that lives in England it was annoying to see the Jubillee labelled the Jubbly etc. Now can't move for Royal stories and there's never any celeb content.
should be rebranded "Royalbitchy" and be done with it.
What they'll do it Harry and Meghan ever split I don't know...
