Celebrities you should love, but don't!

So. I was listening to Zoe Ball this morning and Joe Wicks came on which got me thinking...

He's a really nice bloke. But I really don't like him! So unmanly and squeaky of voice!

Same with Michael Ball. Annoying grin and smugness!

This is totally lighthearted by the way, but are there any celebs that are totally lovely, but you can't stand them? And why?

Nicola Sw..... Pussy at Dolls

@notacooldad but it's lighthearted!

I'm sure she's lovely and we do say'c**t' in a lighthearted and not aggressive way. You have totally missed the point of this thread: 'Celebrities you should love, but you don't'

Nothing nasty going on here my love Grin

Claire Balding
Kate Garraway
Eamonn and Ruth

I'm sure there's more but these immediately come to mind!

Angela Scanlon - Seems like a nice woman but her voice grates on me. Irish accents are usually lovely but hers is really annoying.
Joanna Page - Again, the voice. high pitched and squeaky and I feel guilty because, like Scanlon, she seems like a decent sort.
Harry Kane - A great footballer, no dirty tactics, generally wholesome bloke but I just don't like him and I don't know why.

Lorraine Kelly is always top of my list. I just find her incredibly irritating, smug and patronising, but I have a relative who loves her so whenever she does something “newsworthy” I have to grit my teeth and smile while listening to them talk about her.

Alison Hammond I find kinda obnoxious. I’ve no idea how some people find her funny but I suppose we’ve all got different tastes!

David Walliams seems slimy to me. John Barrowman always has too but I do love captain jack harkness.

Jameela Jamil and Chrissy teigen - I’m not convinced either are as nice as they try to make themselves out to be.

I’m sure there would be plenty more but I don’t watch much tv - probably a good think based on this thread 😂

How can I miss the point when you are mocking someone's features
And of course its all a good jape to call a woman a cunt (oops forgot the asterix!!)
And why should we even love Lk in the first place?

And why do you spell cunt with an asterix?🤔
Just curious 'my love'

Serin · 12/06/2021 00:14

Ant and Dec
Jeremy Paxman, so patronising.

PiuVinoPerFavore · 12/06/2021 00:15

Yes to Miranda Hart. So fecking annoying it's unbelievable.

WithANameLikeDaniCalifornia · 12/06/2021 00:16

Piers Morgan

No, no, no, for the love of God, no.

It’s supposed to be “celebrities you should love, but don’t” not “celebrities that are known c*nts and universally hated”

@Waxonwaxoff0

Holly Willoughby. I find her irritating, especially paired with Philip Schofield.
Agreed!
IAmDaveTheSerialShagger · 12/06/2021 00:18

Gemma Collins and indeed the whole TOWIE cast past and present, oh and Olly Murs

quicknamechange111111 · 12/06/2021 00:18

Robbie Williams! Cannot stand the man.

WithANameLikeDaniCalifornia · 12/06/2021 00:19

@asprinklingofsugar Chrissy Teigen has outed herself as an awful nasty human being. It’s not a secret she’s not nice

IAmDaveTheSerialShagger · 12/06/2021 00:20

@StopPokingTheRoyalTitDear

Peter Andre. I can’t stand him but I can’t quite put my finger on why? He’s apparently a really nice person and I’ve never heard of any diva behaviour.

Can’t stand Ed Sheeran either but I hate his music too so I feel vindicated with that one.

Yes Ed Sheeran as he name drops constantly and boast how much he is roughly worth to a 9 year old Hmm

Brian Cox. I'm sure he's lovely. But his 'softly wooing a tiger to sleep' voice and cherryade lips just give me the fury.

Brian Cox.

(Dons hard hat)

I like his documentaries and I think he's good at explaining things but hes also just ANNOYING.

Cross post! Thank god its not just me!

Michael Sheen. There’s something sinister about him. Pretends to come from a humble tough steel town. Reality is he left ASAP and his parents are v middle class. Pretty sure he wouldn’t survive a night out in Port Talbot he portrays himself to come from. Bargain bin Dylan Thomas / Antony Hopkins wannabe.

ACPC · 12/06/2021 00:30

Gerard Butler.

@Popchips

Beyoncé - I really don’t get it!
Me too

Still trying to understand the hype !

Graham Norton
Davina McCall

I'm sure there are more but these two have always seemed particularly smug to me!
