Nicest/not nice celebs.

[bazzabas]

Who is the nicest celeb you've met?

On the flip side who was not nice?

I had a friend who met Girl's Aloud after she won a competition.

They waited hours to met them, waiting for them to arrive.

Apparently Nadine was lovely, chatted and genuinely seemed interested to meet them.

Sarah & Nicola not so nice, very mardy and diva-ish.

Albert Finney was lovely. * I chased him up the road about 55 years *ago.

I wondered with Howard if it was during the late nineties. He has often said how depressed he was when Take That originally split up, as he said he felt like the world had stopped.
Maybe he was in that period?

For instance, lots of "Peter Andre is nice" yet my best mate met him when she worked in a Superdrug as a Saturday girl, way after the whole Mysterious Girl hype was long gone. He was in a panto and came in the shop one quiet Saturday. He proceeded to act a tit. She knew who he was. Yet he was trying and failing to chat her up, she had a boyfriend at that time so wasn't interested and he did pull the "hey, don't you know who I am, I'm asking you out you should be thankful". She asked him if he was the cleaner from the local pubs son? She knew he wasn't but she said he was acting such a twat she wanted to make him feel a twat.

So clearly, people have off days or they grow up. Some may just be genuinely miserable.

@NorthbyNorthwest22 I can indeed confirm Hezza is a total gent!!

Most shocked by Paul O Grady not being nice - comes across as lovely
funniest - Gino De Campo - having a meltdown and forgetting to use his Italian accent - going 'northern'
The Royal Family come across really well which is good

Uncle’s company did some work at Jeremy Clarkson’s property. He was incredibly rude to workmen. And arrogant.

@Stewball01 I am so glad to hear that. He was one of my first crushes from the time I saw him in wearing a vest in Saturday Night, Sunday Morning on the telly. I was probably about 10 but my mum often let me watch adult things reasoning that it would go over my head. She must have fancied him too.

From the same era and still with us is Terence Stamp who I met nearly 35 years ago when he was campaigning to save a traditional council-run public baths in East London. He and many other working class people had used it when he was growing up round there in the 1940s and people didn't have proper washing facilities but like all self-respecting people wanted to keep themselves clean. By the time of the campaign there was a traditional Turkish baths for men there and a pool which was popular with women from the large Muslim and smaller Sikh communities who wouldn't - or couldn't - appear in cossies with men and so had women-only days.

He took me to lunch at a restaurant in Fortnum & Mason - proper food and wine not afternoon tea.

It was obviously his local canteen and he was treated accordingly - as a special customer but with discretion. I wanted the roast saddle of lamb but was worried it would be rare and my mum always did lamb well-done. He said: "I like well-done lamb too. I'll make sure they do it the way you like it."

Everyone was staring at us in a discreet way. He lived around the corner in this grand 18th century apartment building called The Albany but he didn't try to entice me back there. Instead, he walked me to Green Park station just down the road and kissed me on the cheek. Just like when Terry met Julie in Waterloo Sunset.

Being about 50 he was too old for me of course and he wasn't interested in me in that way either that I detected. He just thought it was fun to take a 20-something Essex girl out for lunch somewhere posh and try to do something for the place he grew up.

Unfortunately the public baths were doomed. He did pose for a picture for the local paper in which all the men lined up with brilliant white towels around their waists. He looked rather good.

Marcus Rashford, not a pleasant man at all, watch this space.

@Busbygirl during Marcus's campaign for school meals in which he was whupping Tory arses I used to paraphrase Smokey Robinson and the Miracles' Just My Imagination.

Every night on my knees I'd say: "Dear Lord, hear my prayer. Don't let Marcus be caught snorting coke off the tits of a hooker."

And despite the best efforts of the Daily Mail, and between you and me they had a lot of money and motivation to throw at discrediting him, the best they could come up with was that he'd bought his mum a house and owned five buy-to-let modest family homes in the Greater Manchester area.

But if you know better I'll watch your space.

The Temptations' version of Just My Imagination always makes me blub. It's sublime and full of such hope and good feeling to which we should all aspire, don't you think?

Here it is

Not into football at all but know who he is, seen him on tv at an awards ceremony I think it was pride of Britain and he was such a moody git, just seemed like he didn't want to be there at all... I felt his moodiness through the tv screen it was that bad.

@limitedperiodonly

I responded but my post isn't showing ugh!

@UserTwentyMillion first or second time round for jlo and Ben?

@threeplusmum don't worry. I had that problem the other day. Maybe Marcus Rashford is a truly terrible person. Snorting coke off the tits of a hooker wouldn't condemn him in my eyes given that he campaigned for underprivileged children but I'd agree he wouldn't be in line for a knighthood like Stanley Johnson who broke Boris Johnson's mum's nose.

Anyone met Karl Pilkington? I love him

"I went to see Ricky Gervais once and someone from the venue went round all of the audience and told them that Mr. Gervais doesn't like people coming in and out during his performance so if you want a drink or you need the loo you had to go before he came on stage."

Totally agree with him on this one, you can't help the call of nature but nothing more irritating than being at a gig and people getting up and down all the time to go to the bar. Often the same group of people getting rounds in.
If you want to drink - and the pre show, interval and after show - doesn't afford you enough opportunities go to the bloody pub!

I've never heard a bad word spoken about Ed Sheeran.

I can't believe MM is a rude arsehole 😢 I've always had a bit of a crush on her and this post has just ruined that!

Ray Winstone - lovely and funny as fuck

Ray Winstone rapidly lost his loveliness and sense of humour when I said my mum fancied him.

I don't care how moody or unpleasant Marcus rashford is, he has done fantastic work for poor children in this country despite opposition from the selfish grabby cunts who should have been taking care of them, and if he's bruised a few precious feelings along the way, who cares.

Truly shocked that a 23 year old with a history of depression and racist treatment at the hands of press and fans would be moody when paraded about on TV. How dare he.

I've heard worst things about MM than 'rude arsehole'

oh my god love terence what a great story

@NorthbyNorthwest22

‘Many years ago I work as a civil servant, won’t say exactly what but came across many MPs. The overwhelming majority are exactly as you would expect and I wouldn’t voluntarily give them the time of day in any other situation.’

Same! Worked in Whitehall for 10 years. Some of them were awful but there were a few absolute gems (Cons and Lab). One Tory MoS who was side splittingly funny and a Lab MoS who treated us like he was part of our team and sometimes brought his little grandson into the office.

@FKATondelayo
I didn't know he had depression, maybe that's why he always looks miserable whenever I see him on the box.

Actually he's had unspecified mental health problems. Depression is my interpretation. Apologies.

I was next to Jimmy Saville in a cafe in a Leeds park (lots of years ago). He went deathly silent, only spoke to the man beside him and looked at me with hatred. I remember being surprised as he seemed so nice on tv. I didn't try to talk to him because his body language was intimidating and negative.

I once stood next to a person in Newcastle in a coffee shop. She was on a weekly game show at the time (take me out- one of the twins). I asked her "are you.....in this queue?" She looked really pissed off, I think she was expecting me to say are you so on so out of....

We got a wave from the guy on Homes under the Hammer when walking past. He was happy in his demeanor.

My mum ate next to the King at a charity event. She said he was lovely but accidentally spat food on her when eating 😂

funniest - Gino De Campo - having a meltdown and forgetting to use his Italian accent - going 'northern'

I'm picturing an international version of Mrs Slocombe on Are You Being Served, where she would be all pleasant, sweet and Received Pronunciation; but then, when she got rattled or annoyed, she instantly switched to feisty and very northern!

So is Gino's normal accent Sheffield, then - and the Italian is just completely put on, to capitalise on his heritage?!
