It seems that even celebrities are not immune to the occasional struggle of clapping properly at award shows. A recent trend has emerged where some well-known figures in Hollywood have been caught on camera displaying awkward clapping techniques.
One such instance was Carey Mulligan at the BAFTAs, whose unique clapping style sparked a flurry of comments and memes on social media. However, she is not alone in this phenomenon.
Other celebrities who have been noted for their unconventional clapping include Antonio Banderas, Natasha Lyonne, Joe Jonas, Pippa Middleton, Sting, Olivia Rodrigo, Steve McQueen, Britney Spears, Brendan Fraser, Nick Nolte, Steve Harvey, Cardi B, Wes Anderson, George Santos, Lin-Manuel Miranda, and the legendary Nicole Kidman.
Interestingly, even Lady Gaga, who famously wrote a song titled 'Applause,' has been observed struggling with clapping at times, proving that even the most talented individuals can face challenges in this seemingly simple act.
While these instances may provide some lighthearted entertainment for viewers, it also serves as a reminder that celebrities are human too, with their own quirks and idiosyncrasies. Ultimately, their ability to entertain and inspire through their work is what truly matters, regardless of their clapping skills.
