Over the years J-14 caught up with some of young Hollywood’s biggest stars like Dixie and Charli D’Amelio, Lennon Stella, Chelsea Cutler, AJ Mitchell, Sky Katz, In Real Life‘s Brady Tutton, Spencer Sutherland, Olivia Sanabia, the High School Musical: The Musical: The Series cast, Issac Ryan Brown, Jason Maybaum, Sky Katz, Ruby Rose Turner and more to talk all things gift giving. From a jar of pickles to a bike that never came, this group of stars just revealed the worst gifts they’ve ever given or received, and some of them are pretty hilarious!

You’ll never believe how many celebs were disappointed when getting socks for the holidays!

“When I was younger, I hated getting clothes for Christmas and some person got me socks,” All That star Chinguun Sergelen said. “I mean, like I wasn’t super happy with it, but I wasn’t like super disappointed in it. But yeah, I think that would have to be the worst gift I’ve ever gotten. But now I need socks. I’m running out of socks a lot now. So I’m gonna need some socks.”

Loren Gray, for one, actually ended up swapping the same exact gift with an ex.

“My ex-boyfriend and I actually bought each other gifts and we went to the same store and bought each other, the exact same hoodies,” the internet star recalled. “Like we bought two hoodies and I bought two that were the exact same as the two that he had gotten me. So we just had two of the same hoodies. So, that wasn’t like a terrible gift, but it just, it was pointless because we both have the same. We had like the same taste and clothes, I guess.”

In December 2021, Boys World member Olivia Ruby revealed that her worst gift was from her parents.

“The worst gift I’ve ever received was the year my parents gave me coal for Christmas,” the singer joked. “As a kid growing up, I never thought I’d actually get coal until that moment.”

Ruby Rose Turner

“The worst gift I ever gave was probably when I was younger. I would go around my house, find little things and wrap them up for my family,” she explained. “My mom would notice things missing and discovered all of my wrapped gifts piled up in a corner of my room. I remember my sister’s reaction on Christmas morning when she opened one of her gifts from me and it was a pair of socks (with a hole in them of course). She wasn’t at all impressed with my gift! It’s the thought that counts right? My heart was in the right place.”

Olivia Sanabia

“I think when I was younger I would kind of give people stuff that I already had. When I was five years old I would give my family gifts that I already got — I was a bit of a regifter. I think I remember giving someone a build a bear I had already had for years. I think I gave it to my sister. It was from the heart and that’s what matters.”

Sky Katz

“My friends and I did secret Santa and one of them got me a pillow with Nicki Minaj’s face on it. It was interesting. I appreciated it, but it was interesting because they know how much I love her. I do not sleep with it. There was thought in there, I appreciated it,” she said in 2019. In 2020, Sky added, “The worst gift I ever got was a math workbook from my mom one year,” she said. “She wanted to try to make math fun for me but I don’t think that’s ever going to happen!”
