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?

Caroline Flack I disliked her when she was on Strictly, don't know why just couldn't warm to her. Also dislike Joanna Lumley and Lulu. No particular reasons just find them. Intensely annoying.

Dustarr73 · 18/12/2019 18:09

Chrissy Tiegan is another one.I blocked her on Twitter,she annoyed me that much.

Roxanne Pallet is another one.Shes just ugh.

Lady Gaga/

RaiseaGlasstoFreedom Meera Syall is lovely. I met her once at a work event and she was charming.witty and gracious.

DontCallMeShitley · 18/12/2019 18:14

Claudia Wankleman and her stupid bloody fringe.
Jennie McAlpine and her constant whining.

Doesnt Tayor Swift('s management) blatantly engineer these 'fallouts' like her 'relationships'?

Patroclus · 18/12/2019 18:18

Maybe he is Dino, but hes also a massive, massive ham.

For me it’s David Walliams, about a year ago I thought this is silly and decided to watch Britain’s got talent for the second time ever, I turned over to find him dropping his trousers and gyrating over Simon Cowell - just disgusting for family viewing.

EoinMcLovesCakeJumper · 18/12/2019 18:19

Sharon Horgan. I don't like myself for it, but she just seems so smug and pleased with herself. I feel slightly the same way about Aisling Bea so there's one sitcom I definitely won't be watching.

Many of the male winners of Strictly, for some reason... Kelvin Fletcher, Ore Oduba, Jay McGuiness, Tom Chambers. Smuggos all!

NeutralJanet · 18/12/2019 18:25

Another vote for Jameela Jamil. She comes across as much of a smug self obsessed twat as the character she plays on The Good Place.

BringMeTea · 18/12/2019 18:30

@Patroclus. Yes! You are so right and that Frasier comparison is spot on. Grin

oldmum22 · 18/12/2019 18:31

Naga Numchetty, so rude to her co host (Charlie )although he does seem to enjoy winding her up.
Suzanna Reid , so patronising .
Any Loose Women presenter

bert3400 · 18/12/2019 18:36

Keira Knightly, that fake toothy grin she does ..yuck can't stand her. Nichols Cage is so creepy, how anyone can thin he's a sexy actor ....ewwwww

anxioussue · 18/12/2019 18:37

Philip schofield, smug git
David Walliams, creepy and smarmy
Keith lemon, ugh.
Jane Mac Donald, nice but dim

EmpressJewel · 18/12/2019 18:39

Justin Bieber - nasty piece of work from what I've read of him.

Geri halliwell - very calculating.

beachcomber70 · 18/12/2019 18:40

Stephen Fry
Jo Brand
Jeremy Vine
Kaye Adams

I have to switch over when any of these are on. So in love with themselves.

beachcomber70 · 18/12/2019 18:43

Forgot to add
Lorraine Kelly...simpering, syrupy, fake.
Ellen DeGeneres...dead eyes.

DownstairsMixUp · 18/12/2019 18:47

Holly willobooby to. Her sidekick, Phil. Both even more after I watched their interview with Jeremy corbyn. I find them insincere and her nice act doesn't wash with me

Mrs hinch. She knew full well what she was doing on ig and it was carefully planned. She comes across like she gives no fucks about her hinchers, can practically see the money bags in her eyes. Before she made it super big to she supported bullying of another woman's cleaning account.

Kelvin fletcher. Never liked him as Andy sugden either he has always creeped me out?!

Tony Robinson. Have no idea why.

Christopher Walken. He always seems like he's lying.

Dustarr73 · 18/12/2019 18:56

Sam Smith,they are just looking for attention.And they cant sing for toffee.

Bluerussian · 18/12/2019 19:07

Vernon Kaye
Harry Hill

headsaway123 · 18/12/2019 19:07

Robbie Williams, Madonna

Littlefrog99 · 18/12/2019 19:09

For me its Paul McCartney. I have no idea why, I cannot think of a single thing he's done to annoy me but I just feel that he's a smarmy little prick.

I can't warm to Beyonce either, or the Kardashians but it's not on the same level as Sir Paul.

70isaLimitNotaTarget · 18/12/2019 19:11

Used to really dislike John Barrowman, but really warmed to him during last year's I'm a Celebrity

Ooh yes , he was on the "List" until I watched him on Breakfast TV last week and he invited Terrance up to his show (provided transport , ticket, sat him with his DParents and his husband)

(Yes I know he's plugging his Christmas Album but it was a lovely gesture to a man who had spent 20 Christmases alone)
