Celebrities you can’t warm to

Does anyone have any celebrities they can’t really ‘warm to’ or don’t get great vibes about for no reason at all, even though they are generally very well-liked?

Mine is Justin/Mr Tumbke, I know everyone loves him but I just get these vibes that he’s actually a total diva and the tv/stage persona is just that. But then I’m probably totally wrong.

Anyone else?

Emma Willis. I really can't stand her for no reason at all!

Mary Berry
Tess Daley and I’ve never watched strictly, so why I don’t like her is a mystery never seen her in anything

StopMakingATitOfUrselfNPissOff · 18/12/2019 10:34

Emilia Fox
David Tennant

I don’t dislike David Tennant, but I get the impression if you lent him a tenner you’d never get it back.

Caroline Flack, turned out to be right about that one.

I’ll have nothing bad said about Rylan, I actually feel like he’s one of my mates Xmas Confused

Meera Syal, although I suppose one doesn't see her much these days. I think there is some real and vicious cruelty there.

Holly Willoughby but only when the whispery voice comes out, normally talking about something sad. Any other time I find her quite pleasant. Dislike Jamie Oliver in general.

Alesha dixon's and Amanda Holden just for their laughs- that's mean, because they probably cant help it even though its forced most of the time

Not that my opinion holds much weight, I like Katie Price and find Stacey Solomon endearing Blush

Span1elsRock · 18/12/2019 11:03

Amanda Holden.
Philip and Holly.
Ant and Dec.
Caroline Flack.

Katie Price and Kerry Katona
Beyonce.
Biggest one has to be Gwyneth Paltrow. She's just so deluded.

Papergirl1968 · 18/12/2019 11:08

Keira Knightly, Louise Redknapp, Phil and Holly, Amanda Holden, Claudia Winkleman for starters.
I’m sure there are others...

BuzzShitbagBobbly · 18/12/2019 11:09

Claudia fucking Winkleman.

I have to mute or change channel if she comes on. Everything about her irritates me. Everything.

InsertFunnyUsername · 18/12/2019 11:09

Oh forgot to add Lily Allen.

LadyMonicaBaddingham · 18/12/2019 11:10

Wetting myself at Ed Sheeran being The Puzzler from Numberjacks 😂😂😂

BuzzShitbagBobbly · 18/12/2019 11:11

And Olivia Colman can get in the sea as well.

She's on everything with that stupid breathy annoying little girly voice she has.

Ditto Jo Whiley.

FleetwoodMacMummy · 18/12/2019 11:16

I can't stand Anna Kendrick and i have no idea why -she just irks me!
I also don't warm to Holly Willoughby, Caroline Flack, Eamon Holmes and Michael McIntyre.

HCHQ · 18/12/2019 11:18

Fiona Bruce
Johnny Depp

Rumnraisin · 18/12/2019 11:19

Not going against the grain here:
Robbie Williams - the smugness
Amanda Holden - the down to earth fakeness
Holly Willoughby - the I’m so perfect in everywayness
Definitely more but these are my main three Grin

OverthinkingThis · 18/12/2019 11:21

Emma Thompson

Rumnraisin · 18/12/2019 11:21

...oh and Cheryl Cole - void of any resemblance of a personality

percheron67 · 18/12/2019 11:21

Tess Daly and husband. Paddy McGuinness - that appalling voice - !! Suranne Jones - all that gurning and the same facial expressions whichever role she is playing!

evilharpyinapeartree · 18/12/2019 11:29

Ricky Gervaise. Can't stand him, don't know why. I love Karl Pilkington but always cringe my way through any bit with Ricky in it.

My husband hates James Corden with a passion for no reason at all.

GreenGrove · 18/12/2019 11:37

Kay Burley - comes over as a complete bitch!

neonglow · 18/12/2019 11:37

@EcocabbyRickShaw it’s not so much the ‘creeps’ with Justin, I just get diva vibes off him and the feeling that behind the scenes he’s not an awfully nice person. Plus I think with all the many programmes he creates that ALL seem to centre him, including the CBeebies pantos where he always seems to arrive on stage after everybody else and the audience is obviously expected to go crazy for him 🙄 gives me the impression of some narcissistic tendencies (or at least the need for attention)

(Yes I’ve obviously watched too much CBeebies over the years Grin )

PP who finds Stacey Solomon endearing, I agree. I really like her and think she comes across as quite intelligent as well.

Oh and Tess Daly. She's fake and as dull as they come

1forAll74 · 18/12/2019 11:41

Paul Hollywood
Philip Schofield
Hugh Grant

LouisaJenny · 18/12/2019 11:51

Amanda Holden for sure.

Mrsjayy · 18/12/2019 11:54

Tess daly isn't married to Paddy Mcguiness she is married to Vernon Kay Grin
