I came across this YouTube video which headline reads Tom Holland is the most wholesome man in Hollywood… I didn’t click on it, but I probably will 🫣 But it just made me think if that perception of Tom is good or bad. Nobody is perfect, Tom has screwed up and will probably do so again, he’s human. I just wonder sometimes how he feels about that label and if whether or not it prohibits his career in any way. Same goes for Z, she has a pretty wholesome image too. Although Z has talked about the pressure of being a role model, if I remember correctly. Anyway, these are my midnight thoughts… 😆 what do you think?
He talked a little about the pressure to say the right thing and do the right thing in the Esquire magazine. And how one of his fears is having to issue an apology.
He didn't address being called wholesome, but I'm sure with the way the Internet loves to drag and cancel people for the slightest offense, it really weighs heavy on him.
There seems to be no room for error for celebrities these days. Everyone is quick to condemn and cancel you and then create an entire narrative around a single word or sentence. Look how people still drag Simone Biles husband for daring to not know who she was when they were first introduced.
It's a shit position to be in and makes press nearly impossible for so many celebrities. You're damned if you don't, damned if you do.
I've already noticed this press tour Tom seems much more subdued compared to previous ones. I'm sure part of that is just aging and maturing, but he also just seems to be more cautious of everything he says and how he's perceived.
