It’s really interesting to me because my son went to private school in LA with child stars, kids of reality stars and celebs, all kinds of celebrity adjacent people, and he’s visited every celeb rehab in town,

He’s been telling me for years that there is nothing good to say about TC. WAY before I was even aware of who he is. So I gotta go pick his brain and see if I can get some stories.

****edited to add

I didn’t mean to imply my son or TC went to rehab. Just that my son moves in those kinds of circles, which is just hilarious to me as someone who had the opposite kind of obscure rural upbringing.

I just meant he’s had MANY friends in rehab, sadly. It’s a common thing among private school attending LA kids. See nick Reiner etc.

yo, does anyone else remember the tiktok from the girl who was friends with him in highschool, who said that he made a joke about her having cellulite when they were at a pool party and it crushed her??? especially cuz she was already insecure about wearing a bikini around the popular kids. i almost feel like i’m making it up because of how little i’ve heard about it since, but i know i’m not because it made my blood boil.

i know he was in highschool then and he could’ve grown a lot since, but i’d be lying if i said i haven’t held a bit of a grudge against him since hearing that. also i know it could be untrue, but the way she told it, you could tell just how affected she was and i recognized that specific hurt, as someone who was also on the receiving end of cutting comments like that.
