Of all the former child actors to call out for misbehavior, I never thought the tabloids would go after… Michael Cera. Cera is the star of Arrested Development (he was brilliant), Juno, Superbad, This is the End, etc. He transitioned from awkwardly brilliant teen actor to awkwardly brilliant young adult actor. He’s 27 years old now and he doesn’t look a day over 18. Star Magazine says that Cera is also a MONSTER!
This once-pale and skinny actor in Arrested Development, but the Juno and Superbad star Michael Cera has taken 180-degree turn with his charm.
“He’s obnoxious and rude and treats women like objects,” snipes a source about the unexpected Lothario. “He’ll use his humor to make women fall for him, then he’ll dump them once he gets what he wants.”
Maybe the fact that he’s been acting since he was nine is starting to catch up with his ego a bit.
“He talks down to people, but he’s so witty and people don’t realize that he’s openly mocking them,” dishes the source to Star. “Michael used to be the nicest guy, but within the last couple of years, the fame has changed him. The new Michael is unbearable”
This honestly feels like some kind of “meta” high-art project, like Cera called in this “tip” about himself to Star Magazine to see if he could get it published. It’s like taking the most random person you could ever think of and accusing him of whatever hot-button issue is out there. Michael Cera is a misogynist! Mariska Hargitay is anti-immigrant! Nina Dobrev doesn’t support #BlackLivesMatter! Right? It’s so bizarrely random, I have a hard time believing it. I mean, I’m sure Cera has done the “love ‘em and leave him” bit before, but does anyone believe that Cera is this much of a douchebag?
Here are some photos of Cera performing with his band (??) in Dublin last month. Is that the face of a douchebag? Or is that the face of a hipster who just pranked Star Magazine?

How in the hell is he getting women?
Come on. He’s so hot, he’s literally perspiring.
FI-YAH!
I spy some yellowing in the armpit region of that lady’s blouse he’s wearing.
I’m so horny right now.
Oh ffs you are right. You are so advocating for yellow armpit region porn right now.
I’ll have to find a way to work “yellowy pits” into my Ashley Madison profile.
*snort*
Jorts, HELMET HAIR is sexah! And he manages to have helmet hair even when it is shorn close to his head. That’s no easy task.
All of this. I love you guys.
He’s famous and has money? Of course he’s getting women.
i was gonna say the same way that that horrible Flavio Briatore keeps getting women…
I would have believed this story a few years ago, when he was everywhere. Not now. He doesn’t do much anymore. Why would the behavior be recent?
Yeah I know I am about 10 days late to this party, but I was wondering the same thing! Who are these women that are gong on dates with him but less allowing him to treat them like objects?
If I had to vote – douchebag.
I second that. He’s got a bit of the douche face going on.
I agree , people are letting the baby face fool them.
A straight white hipster guy is an asshole? No WAY.
I think Lainey mentioned his douchey ways before. Just being rude and ungrateful. Something about refusing to be in the Arressted Development movie because he was too good.
Absolute douche! Dorks are often douches–thinks MRAs, *they’re* dorks. Cera has some major Nice Guy™ going on, which this “is that the face of a….” post only perpetuates.
And how is his acting brilliant?!? He is the same character in every single movie!! I liked it in Superbad, that’s it. So glad his career is tanking. Bye Felicio!
Yeah, I kinda figure this is all true because the Micheal Cera’s of the world feel victimized, so on behalf of all the dorks who will never even get the chance to be entitled douchey womanizers, he has to douche for the team.
Douche, indeed. A friend of mine interviewed him a couple of years ago and said he was condescending, rude and totally full of himself.
Michael Cera for Shaft.
I can see it.
Sheesh, he should be grateful for any woman who would be interested in him.
Looks like a Duggar.
I think it’s the weak chin.
He looks like cupcake batter.
…but less firm.
I’m surprised you’ve said nothing about his eyebrow game. You disappoint me, mimif.
Hm, point taken. I think I was distracted by his philtrum. It’s so…expansive.
Dude is getting shredded on this post.
If the scene in “This is The End” in which he’s receiving a BJ while snorting coke and drinking a Capri Sun is any indication of his true self, I’ll believe it. 😉
On the real, I could honestly see this being true. He seems like he has a pseudo-intellectual hipster personality, which could translate easily to “is a douchebag to women.”
I totally need a Capri Sun now.
Capri Sun is the sh!t. Forever and ever, amen.
Fruit punch FTW
My metabolism took a hike after my 20s so I must request a Capri Sun Roarin’ Waters, please; but the Roarin’ part does make me feel like a rock star (or Mufasa, which is just as good.)
Seth and Evan have said they wrote that scene because they wanted to have him play the complete opposite of himself. Michael is the best thing in that film. “Sippy time.”
Also my gaydar is broken.
He was pretty great. Shame that the poor thing had to be impaled so early on in the film.
Is this really hard to believe? He does look like a douche to me. And he is a mediocre actor who plays the same part in everything.
Agreed. Honestly, what woman would eff that guy??
Oh, there’s probably a nanny somewhere in LA that would like to make a go of it…
I’ve never been able to stand him, but I can’t put my finger on why. I don’t like that particular type of comedy movies he goes for though, so that might contribute.
and looks like the literal embodiment of a Pinched Nerve, ya’ll forgot that
also I question who even gets with that clammy mayo sandwich of a blobby guy
“literal embodiment of a Pinched Nerve”, lol.
This is one of the funniest comment thread I’ve read on Celebitchy for a while. Michael Cera is clearly quite an insult muse.
IDK, I kinda believe it. Friends of ours, who work in H-wood, have said some not so flattering things about him. And wasn’t there a thing, many years ago now, where he was taped going off on set? Or, was that a prank? Can’t remember…
It was a prank, and a pretty believable one.

There were minor rumblings that during his hayday he could be a douche. He was the holdout when AD was in movie development. He was too demanding because he thought he was the biggest star of the cast. There were some shade from Mitch H. himself. By the time the next season was picked up by Netflix he had to eat some humble pie and return to a venue he thought he was too good for.
Actually Hurwitz himself debunked that. It was a joke he made at some event and the media picked it up so it became the big joke amongst the producers and cast that Michael Cera was the hold out on the final season. I could even see this story being a plant from Hurwitz to continue to mess with Cera.
Ok. Thinking about it, that story really was the only bleep in his professional rep.
Weird, I’m not a fan of his but I’ve read that he’s nice. That being said, not sure how reliable these accounts (both good and bad) are.
Wait are you telling me it isnt true that all good looking men are assholes and all ugly looking guys must automatically be nicer people??!!!
My life is shattered.
Clammy mayo sandwich. DY. ING.
I know, make her stop.
“brilliant” young actor? c’mon now, let’s be realistic. “brilliant” young actor like DeNiro in Mean Streets?
So he acts like every character he’s played on-screen? Shocking.
He wasn’t a jerk in Superbad or Juno.
Have you only seen him in This is the end?
Seen some of his movies. He’s the perpetual “hipster quote on quote nice guy objectifies manic pixie dream girl” thing going. Wouldn’t be surprised if he’s a douche.
Did they just watch This Is The End and roll with it?
I can believe his ego might have blown up after Juno and Superbad, but then he got pulled back down pretty fast after every other movie he did tanked.
He’s always struck me as a neurotic hipster.
I believe this.
I only came here for the comments and they deliver.
Seconded
I take one look at him and assume he has bad breath. He has bad breath, right?
Cupcake batter
Secret Duggar
Pinched Nerve
Clammy mayo sandwich blobby guy
I don’t even care about Ceras existence but the comments are gollllld. Now I’ll add one: a bowl of cold oatmeal
I’m here for his City Museum shirt <3
When I look at him, I get the same feeling as when there is a hair stuck in my bra. Just. No.
Omg, lol.
That description sounds a lot like Jesse Eisenberg.
Yeah, I get them confused. I can see it being true of both of them though.
I’m pretty sure they’re the same person.
Ok I’m really weird I know but Jesse eisenberg…I find attractive. I wouldn’t say no. I think he’s talented and very unconventional in terms of his looks. Two things I like.
No, I’m with you on Jesse Eisenberg. He seems like you could have an interesting, intelligent conversation with him. Also, his features are not funhouse-mirror like Cera’s. Whereas Cera gives off a slightly socially challenged vibe.
he probably makes some sarcastic jokes about people and some don’t like it
Probably a jerk…doesn’t anybody remember this
http://www.businessinsider.com/michael-ceras-wrong-number-text-exchange-2013-11
But it’s satire… he’s writing it as if he really were a jerk, which he isn’t…
But the text exchange was real…I thought?…I googled to find the article, but I remembered it being presented to me at one point as an actual happening…I could be wrong, I don’t pay too much atttention
That was all a joke! It’s really funny 🙂
Oh oops…also just did some more research and it appears (just this once :p) I was mistaken….sorry! I change my vote to pretty funny guy
Um, SEE: Jesse Eisenberg. OF COURSE he’s a douche. I loved him as Scott Pilgrim and Bleeker, but this story is completely unsurprising.
He played a satiric version of himself in “This is the End.” The writers of that movie (Seth Rogen and Evan Goldberg) thought it would be funny to have Cera play himself as a creepy jerk because, they said, he couldn’t be nicer in real life. So, not sure I believe this.
Scott Pilgrim forever!
im not jumping on the ‘hes a douche’ band wagon. Partially because I had a giant crush on him during AD/Juno. But also because the only stories about him being a douche are SATIRE. Like…the guys so ridiculously nice that theyve had him play douchey roles because its so not what hes like.
Sound like a man, every woman wants.
Not me. I prefer guys who randomly use commas.
Every woman wants what?
Isnt this the same guy that Schumar said was a douche?
LOL!!!!! Hahahahahahah! Too funny
You gotta love this is the end. That’s how I picture him in real life… Or at least I wish he was!
The comments. I’m dying.
I don’t believe it, because I remember the rumblings of him refusing to continue Arrested Development and those are patently untrue because he did the new season and they’re currently filming another. I think he would show up for anything-he just did a bit part in Wet Hot Anerican Summer: First Day of Camp and was literally my favorite part of the whole series.
There’s something very “Ancient Aliens” about his face.
I would not be surprised if he was a complete douche. Plus, his troll face.
Michael Cera ran in my good friend’s circle while he lived in Portland and was supposedly a cool, mellow guy. She actually did have a crush on him but he didn’t reciprocate.
I met Michael Cera at a cafe in Paris a couple of years ago and acted like I had no idea who he was so we had a good conversation, he was shy, approachable and exactly the dorky kind of guy you would expect him to be, he may treat the press a bit differently but to me he was nothing but lovely, I don’t believe the star article at all.
