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?

Because she has turned on JK Rowling in the most horrific way - the woman who launched her whole career- and while mildly engaging as a child actor, is an insipid adult handmaiden, champagne socialist, peddler of luxury beliefs, crap adult actress twat !

Struggling to think of any celebrities that actively and publicly hate gay people? Surely that’s now entirely socially unacceptable not to mention illegal?

Edited

Okay, "actively" may have been the wrong word. But I wasn't just talking about gay people. I was talking about trans people as well. Anyone in the LGBTQ community, really, but trans people get the most hate and I don't understand why

I've thought long and hard about my answer, and here it is.

Any celebrity who thinks it's okay to actively hate the LGBTQ community. Why do they care who people are attracted to or how they identify? It's weird that we live rent free in their head.
Politicians who think that they can erase disabilities like ADHD and autism (or more specifically, who want to erase people with those disabilities, or ANY disability)
Famous nonces (and obviously those who aren't famous, too)

Forced to watch Strictly due to family members staying. Absolutely dreadful. Lots of women with extreme facial surgery shrieking and a live performance of a song that was shit when it came out in the 90s. Plus it went on for ages. It’s just filler tv as far as I could see. Family think it’s the second coming. So I would include that program and everyone involved in it.

Michael McIntyre. So irritating with his silly head wobbling.

Louis Spence.. cant stand that man.

squashyhat · 15/12/2025 05:02

Chad Michael Murray. I'm a sucker for a cheesy Christmas film but he seems to turn up in all of them with his annoying floppy hair and broken nose. Plus he's got a stupid name.

Look at him - the twat

David Beckham
Will Smith
James Cordon
Paul Hollywood
That Scottish bloke who had a talk show in America years ago and talked about how crap Scotland was. Think he was supposed to be a comedian… Craig Ferguson.

David Tennant, what a twat. I’m embarrassed that I used to love him when he first played doctor who.

I love David Tennant! Why is he a twat? 😳

TheAutumnCrow · 15/12/2025 01:45

I’d give Prince Harry a proper one for what he did to Taylor Hawkins.

BauhausOfEliott · 15/12/2025 01:09

Not going to say people like Trump, Farage, Andrew Tate et al because realistically a slap is way, way too mild a punishment for the likes of them.

Robbie Williams
Sue Perkins
Chris Rock
JK Rowling
John Terry
Shane Richie
Josie Long
Emma Kennedy
Dominic Littlewood
That hairdresser bloke who’s married to Davina McCall
Russell Kane
Diego Costa
Martin Keown
Nick Kyrgios
Tyson Fury
Geri Halliwell

No one there just people on tv.
The world has enough of people wanting to hurt others as it is.

Itsjustmethatsall · 15/12/2025 00:50

Hmmmm....
Farage et al (pronounced garage)
Johnson
Trump
That odious misogynist Andrew sodding tate
Yaxley Lennon, or robinson whatever he wants to call himself
Lorraine. Sick of her
ALL paedos (NOT just a SLAP for them)

Second Oligarch lol?
Hes a working class lad from south London in the trenches with 4 kids (you can sometimes hear them running about when he’s working from home on the ‘Radical’ podcast he does for radio 4 lol

Started his career as media advisor to Lebedev, now Baron Lebedev, son of the KGB, special friend of Johnson. Rajan buries stories, has made a career out of puff piece client journalism that favours the Russo/launderette bent money millionaire circles. As well as being a fanboy of both Farage and Enoch Powell he's managed to gladhand his way onto several concurrently running flagship programmes so it's obviously an approach that serves him well but he's ultimately low in both content and ethics. Nasty, nasty piece of work.

Emiliaswrath · 15/12/2025 00:20

Bonnie Blue, but she'd need bleaching before I'd slap her.

pippapipps · 15/12/2025 00:19

Joe Wicks
Jimmy Carr and his laugh that puts my teeth on edge.
Seann Walsh
Katie Price
Emily Ratajkowski smug cow.
Rachel Reeves and Nigel Farage for his smug face. Nil to do with politics, it's just they annoy me.
Any of the Kardashian/ Jenner lot.
Kanye and his insufferable wife Bianca.
Any Tennis player that makes weird moaning noises as they play.
Meghan Markle and Camilla Parker Bowles.
Justin and Haley Bieber.
Miley Cyrus.
I don't hate Taylor Swift but I get annoyed at the over mentioning of her.
Chrissy Teigen
James Charles if he even counts.
Jake Paul
Chris Brown
James Corden

I look like I probably over invest in these people but I don't actually think about any of them, unless I have to think about it or see mention of them. 😆

Cynthia Erivo and Ariana Grande. Their behaviour absolutely enrages me.
The ott tears, the insincerity....they're both fucking touched in the head 😵‍💫
I wonder how they actually function as people.
