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

Rihanna

Adele.

The most overrated singer ever. She sounds like a heifer having difficulty calving.

Oh dear, I'm quite impressed by him usually. Most other TV cookery people irritate me intensely.

Adele

Also very unattractive. Can you imagine such an unattractive woman becoming that famous for their "talent" alone???.

hes not unattractive at all are you blind

Hmmmmm Clarkson. How is he STILL on air, and not only that but where’s the actual talent? Odious man

100%

OrangeBlossomInMay · 11/05/2023 20:47

@sewerrat you are pulling my leg now!

NashvilleQueen · 11/05/2023 20:48

So many talented people named thus far!

True scum.

Jamie Oliver

Rylan Clarke. So irritating.
Sam Smith. See above.

Harry Styles.

Mediocre music. Blatant plagiarism, framed as interpolation, from much better original works.

Also a shockingly bad actor.

But he's sexy AF so we'll let him off!

Ragwort · 11/05/2023 20:50

Most of the above ... plus Elton John. I am old & he is older than me, he's been around forever, he had a good voice years ago but these days he should just retire gracefully.

Spidey66 · 11/05/2023 20:52

Oh should have added U2 and Coldplay, they’re sooo boring.
Adele is Ok in moderation but I’ve gone off her, liked her up to 25 then she got same.

Spidey66 · 11/05/2023 20:53

Samey not same

Liv999 · 11/05/2023 20:56

Blondey2023 · 11/05/2023 16:59

Ed Sheeran. He's bloody everywhere and his music is so samey and boring. Don't get the hype at all.

Yes to this, all my friends think he's amazing but I can't see the appeal at all

BasiliskStare · 11/05/2023 21:01

Greg Wallace
Tess Daly
Lee Mack I think a bit of a one trick pony. Used to like him.
James Corden if I never saw him on the TV again it would be too soon. I will actually turn over if he is on.

Attenborough

Blasphemy!

Wavescrashingonthebeach · 11/05/2023 21:07

@pompypomppomp

I love vintage Attenborough and I love how at his age he's still getting about so well but I find his newer series too depressing.

@Mrsjayy

Didn't she claim it had been stolen and released without her knowledge and then it was found out that she had released it herself??

Busybutbored · 11/05/2023 21:08

Beyonce

Indeed. Grin

Jonathan Ross. Awful choice for a talk show host. He talks over his guests and barely gives them time to respond to his questions.

Gowlett · 11/05/2023 21:10

z-listers aren’t as much fun nowadays. And A-listers don’t have the star quality anymore. Loved reading the gossip mags years ago...

Alison Hammond.
