Didn't her husband die relatively recently? Might explain her reported grumpiness.

I wouldn't like Tony Robinson. Sad because I love his programmes.

Show quote history

She was on DID & talked about her ex husband, now deceased. She was very emotional about him & they were friends at the time of his death. She was also very cheerful & funny in the other bits

Gervais was mocking the celebrity audience for their hypocrisy on issues like lecturing on the environment while using private jets and acting as authorities on political issues they had no real expertise on.
It was Gervais last time presenting the Golden Globes and he didn't hold back. But the face on Hanks, to me, showed a different side of him.
If you haven't seen the monologue it's well worth a watch.

Show quote history

I thought Tom Hanks did like Ricky Gervais because RG was rude about Tim Allen, his Toy Story co star.

I don't get "bitch" vibes from Rihanna in the slightest.

My two are Tom Hanks and Ricky Gervais. His jokes about sick children actually made me turn his stand-up off a few years ago. I caught some of the office a few months ago as well and it hasn't aged well in the slightest. I think he has a real nasty streak about him. Hanks creeps me out. Not keen on Emily Blunt either.

This sounds so miserable! I do have celebs I love who are extraordinarily talented!

Louis Theroux - and several other privileged poshos who’s work I quite like, but on a personal level, find their over confident manner and wet accents jarring.

Sabrina Carpenter. I get the impression she thinks she’s 20 times hotter than she actually is. She over sexualises herself in a very tacky and desperate way. The album cover of her on all-fours in front of a man’s crotch while he grips her hair… Her performances on stage when she bends over in between 2 male dancers to demonstrate the spit roasting position… The haircare commercial “I’m Sabrina Carpenter, and I know a thing or two about a great bang” 🙄 Give it a rest already.

I find the faux sensual act she does uncomfortable to watch because she’s so tiny (4’11) and looks like a teenage girl playing dress up with 20lbs of makeup.

Tom Hanks is known for being very upright and earnest though, isnt he.

I used to really like David Tennant, but he's become really snakey in the last 5-10 years. His smile is too wide and doesnt seem to reach his eyes, and it all just feels a bit fake now unfortunately.

Emelia Clarke I am.annoyed with because she was executive producer of Ponies and it was brilliant, apart from all the gratuitous female nudity, and I feel that she should have fought for there to not be so much, thrn remembered she got it all out in GOT. Very old fashioned of me I know but where is the woman power ffs.

Anyone slimey, which is many famous men tbh

Zendaya, not because I dont think she seems nice, but something feels too nice about her

He’s a vocal supporter of trans rights, so a large proportion of Mumsnetters hate him on that basis.

Personally I think he’s great.

Show quote history

Will Self was funny. Years ago he was remarking on a ( I think ) Derek Jarman film. He said something like it had Tilda Swinton ' emoting in a corner'. I think he was implying it was all very pretentious.

You are of course correct. But I wanted to take this opportunity to finally get some shit off my chest about Emilia Clarke.

She'd be good in a game of thrones remake of the last couple of seasons!
