OMG...why???

I just love her 'couldn't give a fuck' attitude. She has so many haters but she still gets great gigs with the BBC and her success continues to grow.

Greg Wallace - amazing he's still employed by the BBC...

Anyone and everyone in Love Island/Made in Chelsea/Real Housewives type dross. Utterly talentless plastic airheads appealing to the braindead masses.
All the Kardashians - see above.
Harry and Meghan - she's a full blown narcissist and he just does what she tells him to.
Sue Perkins
Tom Allen
Kay Burley
James Corden
Eddie Izzard
Katie Hopkins
Alan Carr
Victoria Beckham
Amanda Holden
Michael McIntyre
Katie Price
Gemma Collins
Robbie Williams

Ah yes Katie Hopkins, so well loved, an actual national treasure. Deserves her place on a thread called Famous People You Dislike but Everyone Loves.

People aren’t really understanding the concept are they? We’ll be getting Andrew Tate on here next.

blacktreacles · 08/01/2023 17:42

and before anyone comes for me saying I’m contributing to slander - I said allegedly! MN can delete the comment if they feel it’s not appropriate.

NotAnotherBathBomb · 08/01/2023 17:42

Keanu Reeves

Just kidding! Does anyone hate him?

Most of these lists are just repeats of the lists before them

BrokeAsABone · 08/01/2023 17:44

People are making a big deal out of the title....the thing is though, we don't KNOW if these people aren't loved. They're on the TV, people watch them, they appear in different programmes over and over so obviously there is a degree of popularity there.

Jesus that's a bit passionate. All verifiably incorrect and this shows where fake news is born. If u don't like the fella just say u don't like him, you don't have to slander him. Why is there always one nasty who ruins a thread.

I did say I didn't like him, without reasons in my original post. You asked why and I answered. I think he's boring -subjective
He dated a 19yr old when he was 33 -fact
REPORTS of misogyny - not verified and not presented as fact here so don't know where you got slander from.
Every single other person on this thread has talked about people with the same or more "passion" as me describing celebs as: creepy, disgusting, vile, boring, overrated, pathetic, mediocre etc etc but if you want to single me out go nuts 😂

Snazzysausage · 08/01/2023 17:48

Actually until reading all these,I hadn't realised how many celebrities irritate the hell out of me but in particular
Tom Cruise
Jonathan Ross
Victoria Coren Mitchell
Ant or Dec
Paul McCartney
Elton John
So many ....

Thing is, I suspect he’s a character and is basically trolling rich people. If this is true, I’d grudgingly admire the man.

wherestheweightlosspill · 08/01/2023 17:59

Has anyone said Bear Grylls? So incredibly irritating and up himself

Miriam Margolyes
Peter Kay

Lenny Henry
Cliff Richard [Gloria Hunniford's best friend. She doesn't know what I know]
Sick of seeing Ant and Dec

.....I don't watch TV much now because of all the 'celebrity' stuff on there.

As the question is being asked on MN, and MN is where all the past threads about dislike of most of the names mentioned are, this is not where the popularity is...

TheKitchenWitch · 08/01/2023 18:32

Oliva Coleman
Russell Brand
Michael Rosen
Lin-Manuel Miranda
Nadiya Hussain

BrokeAsABone · 08/01/2023 18:33

Hhmmm,,,,yes, you have a point there!

Well, in true spirit of the question then, I put forward Jonny Depp, Christopher Plummer, Tom Hanks and George Best as some more I absolutely can't bear.

I also found Doris Day quite irritating. Talented, but irritating.

Agree with Adele although very charming and obviously talented am disappointed about her self centredness regarding moaning about paying taxes when she herself has benefited enormously from our free education and art schools !
I didn’t used to like Mylene Glass but think she is ok now but too competitive and perfectionist natured .
Holly Willoghby I used to like but now seems to look down on people and be patronising and Tory leanings like her sidekick Philip . Not keen on him either.
Don’t like James Cordon .Am shocked people are saying Ben Fogle ! He is lovely .
Not keen on Jeremy Vine . Storm does a much better job .

I always remember Ben Fogle crying in Castaway(?) when they baited the deer so it would come down to the group, only for them to kill it. I remember he was crying that they betrayed it. I really warmed to him then and have been quite fond of him ever since. Even if he does look like Prince Willy.

Doris Day? How could you? 😭

Yes but there’s a difference in saying Freddie Mercury or Doris Day, which would result in whaaat? Why? It would be like saying you hate cute cuddly baby animals. Saying you don’t like James Corden or Katie Hopkins doesn’t really illicit the same response.
