Public disgrace will impact all relationships with the Sim negatively. This may cause Sims to lose friends, or even make them disliked. Sims will get "Publicly Disgraced" moodlet for 3 days. While having this moodlet, Sims will be rejected for a discount or freebies, and they will get the negative "Got Recognized" moodlet. There are four ways to shorten the duration of public disgrace.
* Sims can dispel rumors to other Sims, which will shorten the moodlet by ±7 hours. It takes time to dispel rumors to the same person again, but they can dispel rumors to different Sims.
* Sims can sue for slander at the [[city hall]]. The legal fees might cost from §50 to §3,000. The higher a Sim's celebrity level is, the higher the cost. Suing for slander may be successful or failed. If it's successful, Sim's public disgrace will be cleared and they will be given settlement payout of §200 to §10,000, depending on Sim's celebrity level. There's 65% base chance Sims will successfully win the case, and the chance is added by 5% if Sims have [[Lucky]], [[Charismatic]], [[Star Quality]] traits, "Cheery Cherry", and "Lucky Lime" moodlets, or subtracted by 5% if Sims have [[Unlucky]] and [[Loser]] traits. The percentage chance is capped though, so it will not go higher than 80%.
* Sims can pay off paparazzi at the [[office building]]. It costs §350, §800, §1,600, §3,000, or §5,000 depending on the Sim's celebrity level.
* Sims can deflect scandal to other celebrities at the office building. The chance is higher if the Sim has high celebrity level. Both successful and failed outcomes will result in loss of relationship with the target, but the effect is worse for the latter. If the deflection is successful, the target will get the "Publicly Disgraced" moodlet.
 
==Notes==
* Prior to [[The Sims 3/Patch 38|patch 1.38]], there was no way to disable celebrity system to prevent the player's Sims from becoming a celebrity.
* Public disgrace will still lower relationships even if the Sim has completed the Super Friendly skill challenge.
