After the death of Paul o Grady it occurred to me I've never heard anyone say a bad word about him before or after death- ditto George Michael
Other celebs I can think of are David Attenborough and Peter Kay
Are there any others?

I’ve definitely heard people say bad things about Peter Kay, including on here!

Dolly Parton?

These threads always go South because whoever you mention, someone will have a bad story.

You are right, though. Paul O'Grady does seem to have had not a bad word said about him. In fact, you can usually tell when someone is well loved because all sorts of people tell very specific heart-warming stories about them rather than the generic 'They will be missed. RIP type' stuff.

Everyone's got someone who hates them!

I think George Michael got himself into some bother at various points in his life...

I came here to say David Attenborough, but you beat me to it

Really? Definitely not universally liked and lots of people said how unpleasant they found him on I'm a celebrity.

Plus there's this.

I can't stand Peter Kay, he is not funny in the slightest so I disagree with that one!
