Is it normal to be jealous of celebrities?

Mostly.Normal for most people

Yes, it’s normal to feel jealous of celebrities sometimes, especially when you’re comparing your life or looks with their polished public image. The feeling usually says more about what you wish you had than anything personal about the celebrity.

Celebrities can seem to have endless attention, money, beauty, or exciting lives, so it’s easy to compare yourself and feel a pang of envy. And if you mean feeling jealous when your partner has a celebrity crush, that’s common too—though most people see a harmless celebrity crush as pretty different from a real-life threat.

A little jealousy is just a feeling, not a character flaw. If it’s making you feel lousy, remember that you’re comparing your everyday life with someone’s carefully managed public image, and consider taking a break from the content that fuels it.
