Celebrities With Weird Phobias And Fears
1. Kylie Jenner
The young business tycoon has two strange fears. One of which is pretty famous as she talked about it on ‘The Ellen DeGeneres Show’. Kylie Jenner had mentioned dust in a cup as a pet peeve. On the other hand, the mother of two is also scared of butterflies. The Kylie Cosmetics founder has a different thought process when seeing a butterfly. “This is how I think of them: cut the wings off and if you just look at their bodies, it’s not that pretty,” Jenner revealed in 2017 while visiting a butterfly exhibit for ‘Life Of Kylie‘.
2. Matthew McConaughey
The ‘Interstellar‘ star has a strange phobia, the fear of revolving doors and tunnels. Matthew McConaughey loses his sense of direction in these circumstances. “I don’t like revolving doors, and I really don’t like that blind spot when you’re driving and go into a tunnel,” he once shared. Not seeing what’s in front of him is what causes his fear.

3. Megan Fox
The ‘Jennifer’s Body’ actress may seem scary to many. But that’s not the case. Megan Fox herself is scared of a few things. This list includes dry paper and dark. The actress has been scared of the dark all her life. She leaves the lights on and runs through the dark when the lights are off. MGK’s wife also fears dry papers, including newspapers, scripted, and anything that’s not laminated. The 37-year-old keeps a cup of water near her, to dip and lick her fingers while reading.
4. Khloé Kardashian
The coolest of the Kardashians has a very strange fear. Belly buttons – both her’s and of others. The reality star Khloe Kardashian opened up about this fear in 2016 through her app. “You can’t touch mine and I don’t want to touch yours. When I’m in the shower, I wear hand mitts and I scream every time I wash my belly button, LOL!” the Good American co-owner said.
5. Scarlett Johansson
The lifelong fear of birds is what the Marvel superhero Scarlett Johansson is very scared of. “I’m terrified of them. That still hasn’t gone away … I was terrified of the peacocks on the set of her movie ‘We Bought a Zoo’. Like, ‘Ahh, don’t get too close.’ They’re like, mean,” the actress shared with Vulture in 2016. It’s the beaks, wings, and flapping that scare the star.

6. Liam Payne
Every One Direction knows the ‘dad of the group’ Liam Payne has a fear of dirty spoons. “It is a bit weird. When I was a kid I was a bit naughty at school and when you were naughty they made you do the washing up,” that’s how the singer ended up with his phobia. Washing spoons irks him and wonders what people do with these spoons.
7. Kendall Jenner
Maybe not a weird phobia like her other sisters on the list, but Kendall Jenner also has a big fear. But this is something familiar- trypophobia, the fear of tiny little holes in weird patterns. “Things that could set me off are pancakes, honeycomb, or lotus heads (the worst!). It sounds ridiculous but so many people actually have it! I can’t even look at little holes—it gives me the worst anxiety,” the supermodel opened up on her app.

8. Johnny Depp
The ‘Pirates Of the Caribbean’ star who makes everyone laugh is afraid of something that makes everyone laugh. Clowns! Don’t know if it works, but the actor has a different way of dealing with the fear. The artist surrounds himself with clown paraphernalia, which he believes would ward off evil. However, it is not just Johnny Depp who has coulrophobia but Daniel Radcliffe and Diddy share the same fear.
9. Madonna
Something that scares Madonna should be really scary. And yes it is. Thunderstorms are what the singer is afraid of—commonly known as astraphobia. This remains to be one of the major weaknesses of the songstress.
10. Olivia Roderigo
Opening up to Rolling Stone, the ‘Jealousy’ singer talked about her fear of birds. “Birds are so foreign to us…there’s not one body part that looks like ours,” the songstress said in an interview in 2023. Roderigo compared the birds to aliens and wondered how no one is afraid of birds that are so different from us.
