[Peppermaynt]

I will say it. Jamie Oliver can't cook.

Neither can the Beckham son.....

Amanda Holden

Mel Giedroyc. No discernible talent whatsoever and made a complete balls up of Eurovision.

Jamie can cook.

Thanks for the explanation, are they the ones who only used to have 16 kids? I watched a couple of those, but found it meh.

@SinnerBoy , they were in the documentary “ 16 kids and counting “. Sue became pregnant at 13 , and Noel was 18 which is pretty grim.

13?!

@SinnerBoy , sadly she had her first child at 14 , and the Dad Noel was 18

Both Mel and Sue

Not only do I agree Paul McCartney is overrated, but the Beatles in general. Of their time, and mostly liked by old people cos of nostalgia. A lot of their songs are crap.
And no, this doesn’t make me ‘thick’ btw. Trying to make yourself sound big and clever because you like old people music must make you feel so worthy - well done 👏🙄

Im an actual old person and I loathe the Beatles. Simple songs badly performed with a couple of exceptions. I give you the thought provoking and clever lyrics, “I Love You Yeah yeah yeah “ and “We all live in a yellow submarine, a yellow submarine, a yellow submarine”. On the same level as wind the bobbin up and if you’re happy and you know it! It’s just bollocks.

Oh and everyone else everyone else has mentioned plus Noel Fielding, Lorraine Kelly, Justin Beiber, Louis Theroux, Sienna Miller, Emily Rarajkowski, Emma Thompson, Dawn French, Davina McCall, Madonna, Priyanka Chopra, Romesh Ranganathan, Lee Evans, Bradley Walsh

I think a lot of the celebs are overrated but here's my list;

The beckhams
Adele
Beyoncé
Taylor Swift
Billie Eilish
The kardashians obv
Ant and dec
Stacy Solomon
Alisha Dixon
Rochelle humes
Sam smith
Holly bloody willoughby
Emma Watson
kiera knightly
Emma Raducanu although not celebrity but a mediocre tennis player that is overrated
Mylenee class
Hayley and Justin bieber
Natalie Portman
Dakota johnson
Kanye west
Jennifer Lawrence
Angelina jolie
Tom Cruise
Naomi Campbell
Ed Sheeran
Lewis Capaldi
Harry Styles
And all the reality tv participants that are continuing to milk out their 15 mins of fame

I don’t really understand the girls / guys who try to make it as models (etc…) but aren’t actually good looking or have any x-factor (or personality). But they have everything done, in terms of hair, make-up, boob-job, surgery. Lottie Miss is a good example. Her sister, meanwhile, just naturally has “it” in spades.

I give you the thought provoking and clever lyrics, “I Love You Yeah yeah yeah “ and “We all live in a yellow submarine, a yellow submarine, a yellow submarine”. On the same level as wind the bobbin up and if you’re happy and you know it! It’s just bollocks.

I'm wheezing

"I love you, yeah, yeah, yeah" ?? Obviously never actually listened to the lyrics!

On the other hand…

Words are flowing out like endless rain into a paper cup
They slither wildly as they slip away across the universe
Pools of sorrow, waves of joy are drifting through my opened mind
Possessing and caressing me

Jai guru deva, om
Nothing's gonna change my world
Nothing's gonna change my world
Nothing's gonna change my world
Nothing's gonna change my world

Images of broken light which dance before me like a million eyes
They call me on and on across the universe
Thoughts meander like a restless wind inside a letterbox they
They tumble blindly as they make their way across the universe

Jai guru deva, om
Nothing's gonna change my world
Nothing's gonna change my world
Nothing's gonna change my world
Nothing's gonna change my world

Sounds of laughter shades of life are ringing
Through my open ears inciting and inviting me
Limitless undying love which shines around me like a million suns
It calls me on and on across the universe
Jai guru deva, om

Nothing's gonna change my world
Nothing's gonna change my world
Nothing's gonna change my world
Nothing's gonna change my world
Jai guru deva
Jai guru deva
Jai guru deva
Jai guru deva
Jai guru deva
Jai guru deva

Paul McCartney is also an average singer at best. Controversial but I'd say the same for Elton John. Chris Martin isn't a knock out singer either (although Coldplay was one of the most epic concerts I've been to) but Adam Lambert blows me away every time.

(Adopting the brace position for the onslaught...)

I also think Chris Martin is an amazing song writer and performer so not overrated.

grass321. Standing with you in solidarity while you wait for incoming onslaught

clawdy I’ve read the lyrics of She Loves You, and still stand by my opinion they’re bollocks. Fridge magnet platitudes at best.

Vicki Beckham.

I agree not their best, but I meant the poster got the lyrics wrong - "I love you, yeah, yeah, yeah!" Not the title of the song!
Try listening to "Blackbird ", "Here Comes The Sun", "In My Life", "She's Leaving Home"......I could go on forever....but I won't!

Bit rude. I can't stand the him either. He's past it now. Just because someone disagrees with you, there is no need to be rude to them. Each to their own.

James corden. Untalented tediious, arrogant and unfunny.

I like Lenny Henry as a human but don't find him funny at all. I guess he's talented in other ways. And kind, so I like him.

That bloke who does Mrs Browns Boys. Never understand that at all. He's a bloke in a dress. Not funny.

The Radfords are the family from the Channel 5 programme 22 Kids and Counting. They are famous for having far too many children and going on far too many holidays!

Ah - I know who they are now. I watched a couple of the first series, but found them tedious.
