Basically Die for Our Ship, but aimed at the love interest of a celebrity. She (and it almost always will be a she) is a lightning rod of hatred from the fanbase, and will be Misblamed: either for negatively affecting the quality of his work, upsetting group dynamics, or just “stealing him away� from them. And if he's a member of a musical group that later disbands, she will be blamed for it whether she had anything to do with it or not. It’s most prevalent among musicians, followed by actors and athletes. Most of the time (but not always), the hatred is entirely undeserved and just goes to show how obsessed and delusional fans can be. At its worst, it amounts to an invasion of the celebrity’s privacy; after all, famous people are still human beings entitled to pursue romantic relationships in their personal lives. The Trope Namer is artist Yoko Ono, whose marriage to John Lennon has been frequently cited and parodied in pop culture for her perceived role in The Beatles' breakup. It's worth noting that the Beatles themselves have always defended Ono and maintained that they started drifting apart long before she entered the picture; she just happened to be there when it all imploded. Public opinion never lets reality get in the way of good old-fashioned scapegoating. Related tropes include Mis-blamed, Dungeonmaster's Girlfriend (if the other bandmates think she gets special treatment); Contractual Purity (where the fans demand that the celebrity not date anyone to keep an image of virginal “purity�); Love Makes You Uncreative (a common consequence); Apple of Discord; Parent with New Paramour; and Couple Bomb. Contrast Creator Couple, where the pair becomes more creative after hooking up. No family relationship to Taiichi Ohno, inventor of Just in Time (the production method, not the trope). noreallife |

The Hard Times: In "Modern Day Yoko? This Woman’s Boyfriend Is in a Shitty Band" they interview a woman who has a negative reputation and is frequently compared to Yoko Ono purely because she has a boyfriend in a band. In a critique of the trope, the article makes it clear that she is much cooler than her boyfriend or his band. | |

Alluded to in That '70s Show. When Eric and Donna find out that Hyde and Jackie are dating behind Kelso's back (even though Kelso did run out on her for a while), Eric freaks out over the effect of the deal in their common friendship and tells Jackie, "You'll be breaking up the band, Yoko!" Earlier, in the episode "The Third Wheel", he also calls Hyde's Girl of the Week Yoko ("What? We're kind of the Beatles.") | |

A platonic version in The Baby-Sitters Club book Claudia & The New Girl, the very tagline of which is "Claudia might give up the Club — and it's all the new girl's fault!". As indicated by the title, Claudia befriends Ashley, a new student at school, and begins spending more time with her than her other friends, as Ashley, like Claudia, is an artist. Eventually, enough tension rises for both Ashley and the other club members to demand that Claudia choose one or the other. By the book's end, Claudia makes it clear that she will not give up either and that both parties were out of line to ask such a thing. Ashley reappears in several books, and while she never again suggests that Claudia give up babysitting or the club, it's still obvious that she holds them and it in contempt. | |

The Simpsons: Barney's girlfriend from "Homer's Barbershop Quartet" is a direct Yoko parody. The band's manager in the same episode gives Homer this advice. "I would prefer if we kept your marriage a secret. You see, a lot of women are going to want to have sex with you, and, er, we want them to think they can." In another episode, when someone mentions Yoko Ono, Homer says, in all sincerity, "Ew, she totally ruined the Plastic Ono Band!" |

In an episode of Full House, Joey's latest girlfriend senses that he isn't happy with the way Jesse always takes the lead and makes decisions in their partnership/friendship and urges him to stand up for himself. Sure enough, this causes considerable friction and tension between the two, culminating in a huge fight in which Jesse outright refers to the woman as "Yoko" (a bit of Fridge Brilliance, given what a rabid music fan Jesse is). | |

Tengen Toppa Gurren Lagann: Simon and Kamina are blood brothers and an unbreakable duo in combat. A girl and their attraction to her (and, most importantly, Simon's confusion and resentment over it) is the wedge that cracks them apart and causes a disastrous failure in battle. It's probably no coincidence that the girl's name is Yoko. | |

In The Legend of Black Heaven, Oji's wife Yoshiko (or "Yokko"), a groupie of the metal band Oji fronted in his glory days, is broadly hinted to have caused the breakup of the band by conceiving Oji's son Gen. Yoshiko is largely hostile and unsupportive when Oji takes up the guitar again to the point of moving out of their house and filing for divorce when Oji won't quit the band. However, when Oji explains everything to Yoshiko through an answering machine message, she rallies fans of the band together to cheer him on. | |

In the British romantic comedy Confetti, one of the main characters is in a low-level rock band. He's getting married, and his best friend and bandmate has taken to writing songs which are thinly veiled rants about how much of a bitch he thinks the main character's fianceé is and how she's breaking up the band and splitting them apart. She is, however, a perfectly lovely and sweet woman, but is savvy enough to get the references to her in his music and does not appreciate them. | |

Penguindrum: Three girls who were dumped by resident hottie Kanba Takakura (Asami, Yui, and Chizuru) form a club named "Heart-Broken Victims of Takakura Kanba Association". As such, Yui and Chizuru corner Kanba at some point, asking him if he has a new girlfriend. Then Action Girl Masako then shows up and wipes their memories away, just like she did to a hospitalized Asami right beforehand. Averted in the case of the in-story famous Takarazuka actress Yuri Tokikago, who is dating Kanba and Shoma's teacher Keiju Tabuki and hasn't had problems coming from fans as far as the story shows. This doesn't change when they get engaged, Yuri retires from acting, and Tabuki moves into her Big Fancy House. The only one really objecting is Ringo, a Yandere with a Precocious Crush, and even she gets over it. |

On King of the Hill, Dale (acting as the manager of John Redcorn's band Big Mountain Fudgecake) calls Luanne "Yoko" and blames her relationship with Lucky for hurting their success; Luanne doesn't get the reference. The band does break up shortly thereafter, but due to Redcorn going "mainstream" (becoming a children's entertainer) and not Luanne's influence. | |

The Big Bang Theory: In "The Cooper-Nowitzki Theorem", Sheldon's graduate student Ramona Nowitzki seeks to isolate him from the group and curtail his leisure activities in an effort to improve his scientific work. The soundtrack lampshades this by covering a montage of this activity with "Be My Yoko Ono". Sheldon eventually cuts ties with Ramona in order to avoid sharing credit with a lowly graduate student. In Season 9, Raj and Howard start a "filk music" band. Raj starts playing songs for Emily and listening to her ideas, to which Howard accuses him of trying to break up the band by doing whatever Emily says. |

Except for the Bald Man, who seems very interested in her chatter, and even supports her in her endeavors to get the sugar bowl. In The Hostile Hospital Part I, the Hook-Handed Man even complains, "I liked it so much better before Yoko showed up." | |

At the start of Haunted Junction, A female ghost attempts repeatedly to possess Kazumi to spend a whole night with her boyfriend. It turns out that said boyfriend was a rising rock singer and, the night she died, the poor girl was running away from three rabid fangirls who had been bullying her for dating him, getting accidentally hit by a car in the middle of her escape. They get a Literal Ass-Kicking by the Ghost Giant, who punishes meddlers like that among Saitou High students, and the girl is reunited with the boyfriend without needing to possess Kazumi. | |

Discussed in the Law & Order: Criminal Intent episode "F.P.S." The one game developer believed that his partner's "girlfriend" (and the victim) was this, prompting him to kill her, but she was just a fan whom he had a platonic relationship with and wasn't trying to break them up, making the murder pointless. Interestingly enough, the other developer's wife plays the trope more straight, being rather jealous of their relationship status well as the third wheel in their successful business. | |

The Shield has Mara, Shane Vendrell's girlfriend and ultimately wife. Introduced at the start of the third season without bothering to show how she and Shane hooked up, Mara instantly shattered the loyalty of the members of the Strike Team with her existence, ultimately causing the group to break apart and to put Shane and Vic Mackey at bitter odds with each other. On the other hand, Mara is routinely written as being the only character who knows full well the true dark nature of the Strike Team and their crimes, and as such, reacts to their insane illegal/morally unethical schemes in a sensible fashion. Unfortunately, this in turn led to Shane murdering his best friend, Detective Curtis "Lem" Lemanski, due to Mara lecturing Shane earlier in the season that he needed to put his family ahead of protecting Lem and his friends in the Strike Team, much to the horror of fans of the Lem/Shane slash pairings. Ultimately, Shane kills Mara and their child, starting the chain of events that brings the Downer Ending on. | |

This really pisses off Izumi, who not only doesn't want his little sister in the spotlight and subjected to this trope but also out of fear that it would bring the family's Dark and Troubled Past out in the open — which it did. Koji's announcement that he's in love with Izumi doesn't go over very well with his fans, especially the already unstable Eri. |

In Bakuman。, when it comes out that Miho Azuki, now a very popular voice actress, is dating the main character, Mashiro, there is a massive amount of fan rage. And it leads to quite the consequences for Miho's career, as she must outperform everyone to voice the female lead in the anime version of Mashiro's manga because of her relationship with him. | |

In Sensual Phrase, Aucifer songwriter and lead singer Sakuya's girlfriend Aine has to deal with overzealous, whiny, and sometimes downright violent fangirls more than once. Once she befriended a girl named Sakura, only to be dumped by her new "friend" once she learned that she was dating Sakuya. Sakura later gets to briefly date Sakuya — but then we learn it's a Batman Gambit from him since he wants to "punish" Sakura for taking Aine's friendship and position for granted. | |

In the episode "Fallen Arches" of The Venture Brothers, the trope is discussed when Dr. Venture attempts to have The Talk with his son Dean. The Time-Compression Montage inexplicably ends with him ranting that Tawny Kitaen broke up Whitesnake. (David Coverdale did replace most of the band around the time she appeared in their videos, and they got married and divorced sometime later.) | |

Quantum Leap. When Sam leaps into an investigative reporter, he falls in love with the psychic helping him investigate a series of murders. His partner is displeased and tells her, "Well, if we're going to break up, I guess you're a pretty good reason." She sincerely tells him that that's she not trying to ruin their partnership/friendship, but he doesn't believe her—"Really? Because it seems like that's what been happening." note It turns out he doesn't just resent her supposed interference, he's worried that she'll figure out that he's the killer they're looking for. | |

Ménage à 3: Zii’s relationship with DiDi destroys Zii’s band, not so much through anything that DiDi does deliberately as because of Zii’s obsession with her. It was inevitable that there’d be trouble with bassist Sonya, who has her own obsession with Zii, but the relationship makes Zii careless and thoughtless, angering drummer Yuki. One smart move from Sonya later, and the band is defunct. | |

A Pinky and the Brain episode featured The Brain introducing a "singer" named Yoyo Nono (who can't sing at all) to the popular '60s band The Feebles. The result? Then the band breaks up so "Jim Lemon" can pursue a relationship with Nono, and The Feebles' fanbase immediately run Pinky and the Brain out of India for introducing them. |

In The King of Fighters XIII: If the player defeats Benimaru Nikaido with Athena Asamiya, the latter (an Idol Singer in addition to being an Action Girl) will allude to how female celebrities are treated in Japan: In the Story mode, when the player uses the Women's Team and they face the Psycho Soldiers, Yuri starts the talk by asking about the trope: The trope is directly used in the Days of Memories Dating Sims, if Athena is the girl that the MC wants to romance. In Boku to Kanojo no Atsui Natsu, she's kidnapped by some Loony Fans and the main boy must save her; in Boku no Ichiban Taisetsu na Kimi e, there's the Running Gag of her fans interrupting the MC and Athena's dates but later it's played more seriously when her manager threatens to resign if her image is "tainted"; and in Boku to Kanojo to Koto no Koi, a scandal does take place when photos of the MC and Athena are taken and leaked to the Internet, but it's a misunderstanding and the fan who did so (Kaoru) apologizes for it. |

Case Closed: A case featured an Idol Singer who hid her romantic relationship with a guy in the TV industry because of this trope. For worse, the Idol Singer died in very shady circumstances — and one year later, the boyfriend became the case's killer, trying both to have revenge and to find her body, hidden inside a Big Fancy House. Both Kogoro and Ai Haibara invoke the trope when rumors suggest that Kogoro's favorite Idol Singer Yoko Okino and Ai's favorite soccer player Ryuunosuke Higo are dating. Specifically, the Detective Kids notice that Ai, who normally likes Yoko's songs, has deleted them off her cellphone out of jealousy. Since Yoko and Higo were actually Mistaken For Dating and a high school friend of the two was murdered, the cast focused on finding the culprit instead, and the matter remains as a mere Running Gag. Once everything's cleared up, a calmer Ai re-uploads her favorite Yoko songs to her 'phone. In Yoko Okino's introduction story, it's revealed when she became an Idol, her manager blackmailed her boyfriend into breaking up with her for fear of a boyfriend hurting her popularity. |

Game of Thrones: Talisa marrying Robb was already widely frowned upon while they were still alive. Years after the Red Wedding, even previously loyal Stark bannermen don't remember her as their late queen but instead as a "foreign whore" (Robett Glover) who brought the bane of House Stark and the whole Northern causenote In this case a rather justified example, though ultimately Robb's fault rather than Talisa's; Walder Frey broke hospitality and allowed the Red Wedding to take place because he was so deeply insulted by Robb breaking his vow to wed one of the Frey daughters (marriage contracts, like in the Real World during medieval times, being very Serious Business). | |

Because the best skater in the world, Viktor Nikiforov, stopped skating to be his coach, skaters that still want to compete with him and Viktor's legion of fans that wanted to watch him skate again all started hating Yuri, something that Chris reiterates. Yuri though states that he wants to be hated as the man who stole Viktor from the world. Interestingly, everybody seems to ignore or not be aware that Viktor and Yuri are in a relationship as of episode 7, despite the fact that they kissed on international television. | |

The Kings of Wrestling hit a major stumbling block in Pro Wrestling Guerilla when Chris Hero saving Candice LeRae from her abusive pimp, The Human Tornado, led to them dating. Hero's partner, Claudio Castagnoli was none too fond of LeRae, to the point he joined The Human Tornado's Power Stable in an effort to get rid of her. When Hero and Castagnoli met up again without LeRae around they ended up working together just fine again. | |

Diary of a Wimpy Kid: Diper Överlöde: When Bill enters a relationship with donut shop assistant manager Becky, his love for her begins affecting his work as he starts writing corny love ballads that don't exactly fit in with the band's sound. She also encourages him to see himself as the band's face and even rewrites Rodrick's "Can You Smell Us Now?" into the less abrasive "Can You Hear Us Now?" | |

On Youngers, Davina is a Yoko despite being a member of the band; the Love Triangle between her, Yemi, and Jay essentially breaks up the band. In series 2, when they are Putting the Band Back Together, Yemi worries about this trope when they are trying to get Davina to join them again. | |

In Scott Pilgrim vs. The World, Scott's friends, especially his ex-girlfriend Kim Pine, are turned off by Knives Chau's presence, especially when you consider that Scott is 23 and Knives is 17note Canada's age of consent is 16, so he wasn't breaking any laws, but his band saw it as a sign of desperation and immaturity to go after someone that young | |

Buffy the Vampire Slayer: Discussed in "The Yoko Factor." Spike, now allied with the season's Big Bad Adam, purposefully makes himself "Yoko" by pushing all the right buttons to get the Scoobies fighting each other. He's been close enough to them for most of the season to notice all the rifts growing between them. Unlike in other examples, however, they figure out what's happening and defeat Adam in the end. In that same arc, Riley's friend Forrest views Buffy as the Yoko (with the Beatles represented by the Initiative). Anya sees Willow as Yoko for her relationship with Xander. You can't say she's wrong. It's a big plot point for the season 5 episode "Triangle". |

The exact title of the trope, "Yoko Oh No", occasionally appears on TV, such as in the All That sketch "C.J. and the Cloudy Knights", where one of the Cloudy Knights has a girlfriend named Yoko who threatens to leave him if he doesn't become the lead singer. | |

When they run into him at Monica's New Year's Eve party Eric greets Phoebe by spitefully calling her "Yoko" and rubbing it in David's face that he's still going to Minsk. | |
