I will start lol ... I got blocked by ex UK Dollar pop star David Van Day on Twitter (now known as X) ..... I commented on him doing a sing song in an old people's home and he hot the hump about it.

Why have you all been blocked from H steps? 🤣🤣🤣 should start a club lol. Make badges and everything.

We are a club. He blocks every gender critical woman.

I’ve been blocked by a few people. Mostly unhinged, anti-science type men who demand that I should call them women, based on misogynistic ideas about what it means to be a woman.

I was blocked by Donald Trump when he was on Twitter. I called him a cunt.

Are you kidding? I tried so hard to get him to block me 🤣🤣 ANNND I called him a cunt, regularly!! (Past tense because I deleted twitter when the other cunt bought it).

Some Reality Z lister blocked me because she was dishing out potentially sight threatening contact lens advice (and advertising a company that sells unsafe lenses), and I contradicted her.

I am also blocked by H from Steps. I assume he uses the block list created by the paedophile child torturer because that’s more palatable than listening to women.

Alice Roberts for asking if a lovely drawing of a uterus, ovaries and vagina could be know as “the female reproductive system”.

Frankie Boyle, who may I remind you his whole brand is about being shocking, for saying that there’s no such thing as a woman with a penis.

there’s a theme.

Love that you started this thread @HazelOP1972 - thank you!

I got blocked by... honestly... Elon Musk... PRE his purchase of Twix!

I think it was something to do with self-made man swagger status and I pointed out that his daddy owned an emerald mine. Pleased he was not.

Zack Pinsent who's a tailor who only ever wears period clothing. I love his style and how he's just himself. But he blocked me on X presumably because I follow JKR and he's very much a TWAW person
.

SwedishEdith · 12/01/2026 21:23

I think I was blocked by Alistair Stewart as well but can't remember why. But he also liked or retweeted me as well before then. Allison Pearson also blocked when I pointed out something she tweeted was incorrect. I saw that as a badge of honour tbh.

India Willoughby and H from Steps.

I’ve never interacted with either of them.

An annoying "female entrepreneur" who kept popping up on my feed trying to sell £1k courses. I commented on one of her reels that according to Companies House, she clearly wasn't making the "six figures" that she claimed she was

Catcuddles2 · 12/01/2026 21:14

Jodie Marsh for the last 15 years lol. I think I was a bit of a dick to her but I don’t know what it was. Might have been justified, might not.

CaffeineAndChords · 12/01/2026 21:11

Nick Knowles and Alan Sugar (on X) hahaha.

halfpastten · 12/01/2026 21:06

Blindboy boatclub (famous to those who know of him) blocked me after he said he didn't have any terfs as subscribers to his podcast. I was blocked after correcting him, with the evidence of myself. I no longer subscribe, so perhaps he created his own truth. He used to be quite punk and interesting in his monologues, but woke turned him into a tedious bore, so no loss.

NerrSnerr · 12/01/2026 20:47

I got blocked by the athlete Dina Asher Smith’s mum for questioning why athletes sponsored by Nike didn’t boycott them due to their awful treatment of pregnant women, their strong association with doping (Salazar) and abuse (also Salazar). I didn’t say this directly to her but she obviously read it and didn’t like it.

youalright · 12/01/2026 20:44

Nobody famous but I got blocked by some bloke who was live streaming on a maternity ward. Shared room 3 other women in there. He didnt like being told to respect women's privacy and confidentiality he called me a Karen and blocked me.

Grapewrath · 12/01/2026 20:39

Also Alice Evan’s for liking a post about parental alienation lol

Jeremy Vine blocked me after he posted one of his goady bike v car videos and I told him that on this occasion the traffic violation was his, explained why and cited the Highway Code paragraph.

Haha oh no .. he is pretty annoying

Alice Evans, but I think she blocked a lot of people. I literally liked a tweet someone else had shared.

Lucrezia Millarini, when I asked her if she was alright as she looked like she glitched on the tv. Rude.

Emma Kennedy also blocked me when I politely pointed out an error she'd made. Amazing how thin skinned some people are. Former newsreader Alastair Stewart also blocked me when I pointed out an error he'd made; you'd think journalists would appreciate accuracy...

Oh wow .. that Emma is a right one. I've seen her posts she can't shut up!

David Walliams following a comment I made about the beast of Buckingham Palace, not sorry...

MrsAvocet · 12/01/2026 00:51

Not anyone famous, but years ago a former close friend blocked me out of the blue on all social media and messaging services and her DC did the same to my DC. I'd previously declined to join in some gossip about another mutual friend. I wouldn't say we even fell out over it, I just said I wasn't comfortable talking about the other friend behind her back. I didn't think it was a big issue and certainly nothing I expected to end a fairly long friendship. But she obviously felt differently. Next morning I was blocked on everything. None of her family have ever spoken to any of my family again. Very odd.

H from Steps too, but I think thousands have been blocked by him.

Me too 😆

RightOnTheEdge · 12/01/2026 00:37

I got blocked by India Willoughby. Probably because I follow JK Rowling or something.

SnowDaysAndBadLays · 12/01/2026 00:24

I get blocked all the time for saying men can't be women.
