To wonder which celebrities you’d gladly give a metaphorical slap, if there were no consequences?

Not endorsing violence obviously but if it were just a harmless slap on a fantasy level - no consequences, no scandal, just vibes, who would be on your list?

Mine would be:

  • Trump - not technically a celeb but come on.
  • Diddy - no notes needed.
  • Jay Z - eternally smug and cheated on Beyoncé? Slap.
  • Kanye - not even sure where to start.
  • Chris Brown - this one’s personal, we all know why.
  • Kendall Jenner - something about her is just rude.

AIBU to think some people’s energy is just slap-worthy?

What is transphobic about pointing out that JKR has received death threats/doxing/rape threats etc?

Show quote history

‘Traitor to her sex’ was the part I was referring to - I accept lots have this opinion, I was just saying I for one do not hold this opinion, and it’s the acting I dislike.

Emma Watson is on my list but not because of the horrifically transphobic reasons you’re using - she’s just not very talented imo.

That may be, but I still don’t think she (or any woman) deserves the way he treated her.

I've obviously missed it but how did he treat her? He always creeped me out.

We will agree to differ
The issue is soooo much bigger than that considering JK is getting death/rape/ doxing/ mutilation/arson/torture/threats to her kids for holding perfectly widely accepted sensible views

Watson is not only a traitor to the hand that fed her she is a traitor to her sex - and when the current fad runs its course and it is safe for her to do so she will swivel 180 like so many of her peers

Coward
A Peggy Mitchell slap for her please!!!

I was only shouting loudly saying earlier on today that I'd slap Trump for posting what he did about Rob Reiner.

It would have been better for Trump to have said nothing since Rob Reiner did have quite serious TDS.

Really? I always wanted to rescue her and build her confidence…that creepy little misogynist of a husband of hers is welcome under my patio any time.

Will Smith. I'm still bloody furious about that 😡

MarbleDrive · 19/12/2025 21:38

We’re watching master chef and we very much want to slap Dawn Porter. Mostly because of her awful hair.

Also Grace Dent.

He makes jokes about everything, and everyone.

What TRAs don’t like is that Ricky repeats the TRA bullshit word-for-word.

Ricky Gervais used to say some pretty nasty things back in the day

Danny Dyer. I see he’s now in a gambling ad. Classy 🙄

James Corden

Yes, I thought Jonny Vegas was a decent chap until I saw him in a gambling advert.

TheaBrandt1 · 19/12/2025 16:42

I don’t think I would actually want to socialise or hang out with anyone that actively seeks out being in the public eye. It’s such a cringe love yourself type of behaviour. Different if you are famous for being good at a thing but otherwise - no thanks.

Claudia Winkleman - it's the way she smiles smugly on only one side of her face in every bloody photograph. Horrifically irritating. It's closer to gurning than smiling.

A question - Pedro Pascal has been mentioned a few times on here - what has he done to earn himself a place on this thread?

Pedro Pascal is a fan of the gender woo, not a believer in the rights of women and children.

Such a good shout. She makes my skin crawl, foul woman. She seems hell-bent on grossing people out and I just don't get it.

I agree, wouldn't actually want to slap her but I would stop inviting her on talk shows.
