2025 Celebrity Bad Manner Awards: The 6 Most Controversial Etiquette Fails

As 2025 draws to a close, the glitz and glamour of Hollywood are being overshadowed by a list no star wants to be on. Etiquette expert Laura Windsor has officially released her picks for the 2025 BMAs (Bad Manner Awards), highlighting moments where public decorum was tossed aside for individual ego. From red carpet snaps to family snubs, this year delivered a masterclass in how not to behave in the spotlight.

Top Offenders of the 2025 Celebrity Bad Manner Awards

Leading the pack is Millie Bobby Brown. The 21-year-old actress sparked a viral firestorm in November when she snapped at photographers to "smile" during a red carpet event. While the pressure of fame is real, Windsor notes that "biting the hand that sustains you" is never a good look. Similarly, Lily Allen faced criticism for her new album, which aired the graphic details of her failed marriage to David Harbour, turning private pain into public fodder.

Fashion also played a role in this year's etiquette debates. Lauren Sánchez, wife of Jeff Bezos, was slammed for wearing a visible lace bra to a presidential inauguration. Critics, including Windsor, argued that such an event requires situational awareness over personal visibility, stating that true class is knowing when to fade into the background.

When Stardom Overrides Personal Gratitude

The most personal snubs came from Selena Gomez and Brooklyn Beckham. Gomez allegedly failed to invite her kidney donor, Francia Raisa, to her star-studded wedding, a move described as "brutal." Meanwhile, the Sussexes were labeled as entitled for their behavior at the Invictus Games, where they reportedly prioritized their own visibility over the veterans the event was built to honor. Finally, Brooklyn Beckham's decision to exclude his own family from his vow renewal ceremony highlighted a growing trend of "us-vs-them" dynamics in celebrity circles.
