In a striking move that has sent shockwaves throughout the entertainment industry, Hollywood celebrities have taken up the latest craze of collectively imagining chronic illnesses as a new way to enhance their public personas and street credibility. This trend, which insiders have affectionately dubbed “Sick-Kanda,” has been gaining traction among A-listers eager to demonstrate their commitment to authenticity in increasingly unconventional ways.
Leading the charge is the internationally revered actor Ryan LeFarquharson, universally noted for his dizzying array of films in which he portrays identical characters with indistinguishable accents. LeFarquharson recently announced at a Los Angeles press conference that he has been “living with” an entirely imagined diagnosis of “Fictitious Schmiltis Disorder” (FSD). He described his daily regimen of picturing various non-existent symptoms as “extremely rewarding and deeply validating.”
“Every day, I wake up and endure the visions of light-hearted malaise,” LeFarquharson told a captivated audience of journalists and fans. “Do I feel nothing at all? Or is it slightly less than that? It’s a journey, and I embrace it fully.”
Key promotional materials reveal that FSD is a psychological condition recognized exclusively by the Hollywood Institute of Imaginative Disorders, a nebulous organization established by socialite and faux health guru Lara Fayery. Fayery, whose best-selling book “Think Your Way to a Makeshift Malady” reportedly outsold every volume of actual medical literature this year, is thrilled with the trend.
“Imagining one’s own illness requires a level of mental dexterity and emotional intelligence that most people simply can’t fathom,” explained Fayery. “It’s about living your truth, even if that truth is a selective fabrication in search of deeper, yet entirely surreal, understanding.”
Not to be outdone, noted pop starlet Vivica Glossington has enthusiastically embraced the trend by contemplating a deeply imagined strain of “Chronic Imaginaticus,” a fictional condition characterized by faintly visualized fatigue whenever convenient. Sources close to Glossington claim she performs exclusive intimate concerts for those who can fictitiously communicate through what she whimsically refers to as “feigned empathy signals.”
While some critics dismiss these imagined ailments as a vacuous ploy to reap attention through manufactured vulnerability, publicist Finley O’Reilly insists that the movement reflects a broader societal shift. “This is the celebrity version of ‘keeping it real,’” O’Reilly affirms. “It’s taking your privileged health and imagining just how complex your non-problems could be if they weren’t entirely made up.”
According to a recent pew-in-your-eye survey, 82% of celebrities are considering their own imaginary disorders, posting thoughtful-yet-hastily-deleted online messages about their visionary illnesses. The National Institute of Totally Real Disorders assures the public that this trend will likely fade once an even more frivolous movement rolls into the limelight, like maybe “method acting as a rogue kitchen appliance.”
As Hollywood continues to blur the line between fantasy and genuine ailment, fans and critics alike are left to ponder the deepest question: will there eventually be an award for Best Performance in a Fantastically Fabricated Condition? As of publish time, those who are completely healthy and not remotely in search of attention are unlikely to notice.
