I don’t like David Tennant, can’t put my finger on why he just seems a bit creepy. I’m sure he’s not I just don’t like him.

Jimmy Carr was soooo nice when I met him!

I’ve always had a love/hate relationship with Emma Watson. Her acting in Little Women was dire. For some reason her new alcohol venture really pisses me off.

I forgot about Joe Wicks.

In his early days when he was just becoming famous, he stole my weight loss photos I’d posted on Instagram, and made a thank you post ‘from me’ to him, attributing my weight loss to his plan.

Fact was I’d never heard of him, hadn’t exercised and only lost weight because I was pretty much living off three Jaffa cakes and an apple a day.

When I commented on the asking why he’d stolen my pictures, he messaged me calling me an interfering cu*+ before blocking me. He removed my comment and kept the post up. Strange man.

That’s terrible! You should out him!

David Mitchell. I do know why though, so it’s not an irrational dislike. He reminds me of my ex neighbour (they could almost be twins. They even sound the same) Anyway, he was a massive dickhead. I won’t watch anything with him in. The revulsion is overpowering.

Idris Elba. Over bearing, dominant insincere bully who misuses his power

I love David Tennant, I didn't realise he was a marmite celeb!

I'm just watching the last episode of Deadwater Fell. He's brilliantly creepy in it. I've just watched the little boy having therapy about his dead friend and I'm literally crying.

Don't forget these people or their families could be on Mumsnet and you could really damage their mental health.

ChishiyaBat · 10/02/2024 09:34

I have loads, but my top 3 are:

Sophie Ellis Bextor- she makes me feel ill, everytime I see her weird face or hear her stupid fake voice!

Leonardo DiCaprisun- he just looks wrong, I can't explain, but ewww!

Sara Cox- just no, hated her and Claudia since the 90s, they make me stabby!

SpinningLikeAGirlInABrandNewDress · 10/02/2024 09:34

Top of my list... Amanda Holden!!

Allison Hammond
Russel Brand
Ricky Gervais
Holly Willoughby

Love David Tennant!

I'll take your advice into consideration, thanks for your concern😂

I think that is a very reasonable/unreasonable reason to dislike someone.

RedDuffle · 10/02/2024 09:37

Amanda Abbingdon and Katherine Parkinson...one of them set off the dislike and they remind me so much of each other that now I dislike them both 🤣

Iwasafool · 10/02/2024 09:41

Anyone remember Taking Over the Asylum? It is about 30 years old, a young David Tennant and Ken Stott. First time I aware of either of them and I thought it was brillliant.

I find Stephen Fry irritating, he always seems so smug. I always think, "were you that smug when you were in prison?"

BloodyMaryMorning · 10/02/2024 09:42

David Walliams
Russell Brand
Liam Gallagher and his sons
Paddy Mcguiness
Fern Cotton
John Torode and Lisa Faulkner when together - independently they're fine but in combination the smugness is unbearable

GressaYork · 10/02/2024 09:43

Peter Andres wife Emily. She just seems like a little miss perfect/teachers pet type!
Prob not a celebrity but India willoughby is just vile. Only really came to my attention on big brother and apparently spends all their time on Twitter filled with hate towards women and being spiteful about how they look. Never came across such a bitter and twisted individual!

GuessThatGranny · 10/02/2024 09:44

I like the show The Wheel, but really dislike MM in on the Michael McIntyre show where he disrupts people in their sleep and does send to all - he comes over as false giggly.

You’re right! Everyone is being mean about my husband David tennant and I’ll find where you all live and make the nasty women apologise personally to our beautiful children.

GuessThatGranny · 10/02/2024 09:51

Will Ferrell
David Walliams

Morecatsarebetter · 10/02/2024 09:53

Some more. Paul McCartney (no fool like an old fool). John Lennon (hypocrite). Kate Winslet (insincerity screaming from every pore). Denise Welch (grow up). Kay Adams. Mel B. Gerri Halliwell or whatever she’s calling herself now. Bob Monkhouse (only those of a certain age will remember him; oily man and not remotely funny). Footballer John Terry. Ferne Cotton.

betterangels · 10/02/2024 09:54

But, the sight of that simpering, giggling, two faced, overgrown teenager Holly Willoughby is too much. I just see Princess Fiona from Shrek who knew all about Schofield’s actions and kept quiet.

All of this.

PuppyMonkey · 10/02/2024 09:56

You lot are all meanies. Grin

There's only one celeb I literally have to turn off when he comes on the tv and that’s the presenter of Click, the bbc news tech programme - Spencer somebody or other. I don’t know why but his mannerisms and presenting style make me feel a bit ill.Confused

Poppybob · 10/02/2024 09:59

Ant and Dec
James corden
Holly Willoughby
Gregg Wallace
Basically most of the people who are on daytime TV 🤣

Idontgiveashitanymore · 10/02/2024 10:01

Ricky gervais 🤢
rylan 🤢🤢🤢🤢🤢

Morecatsarebetter · 10/02/2024 10:03

Nick Knowles. Spiteful face with dead eyes

Ryan Gosling. Yuck. I can't understand at all how anyone can think he's attractive.

Don't find him attractive but he is very likeable in interviews.
