Here's more entertainment and celebrity news for March 21st. Barry Keogun, the 33-year-old actor known for Peaky Blinders in Saltburn, recently opened up about the harsh reality of online hate. In the Sirius XM Radio interview, he shared how cruel comments about his appearance have pushed him to step back from social media entirely. He explained that even though he tries to stay offline, Curiosity sometimes draws him back in after events, only to face a wave of negativity. This abuse has grown into a real issue, making him avoid public outings and events altogether. The toll goes deeper, seeping into his professional life, and dampening his passion for acting. Keogun expressed worry that fans miss out, but he's especially concerned about his young son one day seeing those hurtful words. On X, formerly Twitter, he posted a strong response calling out the lies and toxic remarks that cross personal boundaries. He deactivated his Instagram account to shield his family and career from the distractions.

Now focusing on being the best father possible, Keogun is channeling his energy into personal growth and providing a positive example for his boy, away from the online noise.
