20 Celebrities Who Have Taken a Break From Social Media (5 of 11)

8. Emily Stone

The acclaimed star of such flicks as La La Land and Poor Things, Stone, who announced in 2024 that going forward she would like to be referred to by her birth name Emily rather than “Emma”, has never had social media accounts. Unlike many celebrities who curate online personas, Stone prefers to maintain as much privacy as possible. Having risen to fame in her teens, she’s wary of the negativity and inauthenticity that can permeate social media. This choice allows her to focus on her craft and connect with the people who matter most in her life, away from the constant public eye.

9. Demi Lovato

The pop singer’s relationship with social media has evolved significantly. Initially, she craved online validation and positivity. However, negative comments, especially when she defended her new manager Scooter Braun’s controversial decision to purchase the entire Taylor Swift catalog, took a toll on her mental health, leading her to take a break in the summer of 2019. She still uses social media to connect with fans, promoting positivity and staying true to herself.
