Deuxmoi: The Internet’s Own Celeb Gossip Girl
xoxo, Deuxmoi

Spotted: the Internet’s best celeb gossip. Have you ever wondered where all your favorite A-listers go for coffee? What about if that famous couple really split for good? If you’ve ever been curious about the everyday lives of the people we follow on social media or watch on the big screen, Deuxmoi probably has the tea. Run by an unknown woman in New York City, Deuxmoi shares news on celebrities from Reese Witherspoon to David Beckham to their large following via their Instagram story. With over a million followers, Deuxmoi is never without secrets to spill. Their followers are often people in high places with insider info (and non-disclosure agreements they should really care more about).
With over 1.2 million followers and recognition from The New York Times and Elle magazine, Deuxmoi has quickly become an Instagram sensation. Deuxmoi posts hundreds of the submissions and photos she receives every week and has the ability to post things immediately after they are submitted, given that she is merely a messenger who shares drama from sources with no platform. Since none of the Instagram stories are published as fact, followers frequently come together to get to the bottom of a rumor or tip that may contain false information, often adding on the infamous tagline: anon pls. If a tip is too sensitive or reveals too much personal info, Deuxmoi may censor names and post it as a blind item. She leaves whether or not you believe the tips she posts entirely up to her followers, making her daily Instagram stories a mashup of information and tea for readers to form their own individual opinions.
What’s so unique about Deuxmoi is how gloriously mundane many of the submissions she shares are. She posts info about celebrities that major news outlets and tabloids would find too insignificant to post but are still engaging for a fan or pop culture enthusiast. For example, ever wondered what skincare the infamous Jennifer Aniston uses? According to Deuxmoi, the A-list actress swears by Biologique Recherche products.
Don’t think that everything she posts is so simple, though- If you’re skeptical of Deuxmoi’s accuracy, you may be convinced by the fact that the account was DM’d Kim K’s SNL host gig before it was released, Taylor Swift’s upcoming video before it was confirmed, and the shocking split between Madeline Cline and Chase Stokes from Outer Banks before any other outlet. Better yet, if you’ve been following the Pete Davidson and Kim Kardashian relationship rumors as closely as I am, Deuxmoi will certainly keep you in the loop. Iconic.
Info about SNL submitted in late September, days before the announcement by SNL
Still, we have to remember that the celebs we may idolize are real people too, and Deuxmoi humanizes and humbles celebrities right before our eyes. By giving people an outlet to share without consequences of violating NDA’s or being vilified by the press, she opens up a new avenue to share information. If you consider yourself fluent in pop culture, Deuxmoi should be in your Instagram following. *Anon pls.*
