The guidelines were taken seriously by many people including various world-acclaimed celebrities who used their different social media platforms to sensitise their fans about the same.

However, the infection curve levelled in different countries and that marks the beginning of carelessness from many people with celebrities not being exceptional.

A number of American celebrities were recently put on the spot after they were caught partying amid the pandemic and not even observing the COVID-19 guidelines.

Many of them seem to have taken a break from the pandemic to party themselves silly for Christmas and New Year celebrations.

According to Page Six, world celebrities such as Chris Brown and Tyga were spotted partying outdoors at Komodo in Miami.

Well, the two were later joined by Marshmello, Busta Rhymes, the Stallone sisters and Sofia who partied like there was no coronavirus or tomorrow.
