...to NOT 'get' the absolute love and adoration for.....

[BeckerLleytonNever]

Adele. (only average singer and songs)

Kylie (only 'talent' is wearing as little as possible)

X factor- always the same

The voice

Strictly

Simon Cowell.

TOM jONES -GREAT SONGS, GREAT VOICE BUT A TWUNT (oops, caps lock!!)

Daniel Craig/newer james Bond

Downton

call the midwife

anything big fat gypsy/Essex/chelsera/Geordie/housewives...

Kardashian.

Jose Mourinho (footy fans think hes a god, but hes a mysoginist and bully)

David Bekham- walking tattoo parlour, throwing toys out of pram when he was playing footy, frowning and thinks that's sexy, always showing his bulge, so obviously after a knighthood as if hes the only person whos ever played footy.

I know everyones got different tatses and things, but the worshipping for all the above (and Im sure Ill think of more).....I just don't get it.

anyone else? or am I just an old grouch?

Sounds about right to me.

The only one that I like from your list is Call The Midwife

I don't dislike Adele

Kylie seems like a nice person

The only one i like is david beckham. But only to look at.

Bah humbug !

Mass entertainment never has been anything of quality. Show some people a picture of a cardboard box and they'd get excited.

Agree with it all apart from Jose Mourinho. He's probably the best manager in Europe & hot hot hot. He's very likeable too, in an over the top arrogant way.

You are right about them all excpt Daniel Craig. He is a very good Bond.

As it happens I don't love and adore anyone from your list.

Lots of people do admire their various talents though -why should it bother you so much?

Hear hear OP

Oh, & Kylie is lovely.

What don't you 'get'?
That a lot of people have different tastes to you?
Strange post.

What is there to "get"? Isn't it just a case of different people liking different things however- as you said different tastes? I dont get this "snobbery" about who other people like (not saying this about you OP, just a general observation).

I agree with most of your list and would like to add Micheal Buble (sp) to it please.

Why is he on everything at this time of year?

YABU, you missed off anything with benefits or on the dole in the programme title and The Daily Mail

I'm happy with your list, and could merrily add a few more names to it

I don't really 'get' people who don't 'get' that others might like different things to them. And make a point if it

I couldn't agree more with BackInTheRealWorld. Your 'absolute love and adoration for....' is over dramatic hooch and anyway - what is it to you who anyone likes or doesn't like? Very bloody odd post.

Me to Thursday, smacks of a very rigid inflexible mind that thinks everyone should think the same as them really.

Is there anything you do like? Please don't think of any more.

I don't love or adore anyone or anything on your list or indeed worship.

Stopped reading your list when I got to Kylie - what's there not to "get"? She has a career over 25 years, puts on an amazing live show, seems a genuinely nice person and she kicked cancers ass!! I realise a lot of others have too, but for someone of her fame status, I feel she did things the right way, she didn't use it for free promotion or to her own personal gains like others have seemed to do.

I agree with every single point you make.

I think Adele has got a beautiful voice and I loved her first few songs, but after that it got a bit samey.

A colleague of mine spent about 3 hours on the computer at work trying to get tickets to her concert and getting really stressy and upset about it . . . REALLY?

Adele. (only average singer and songs) She's OK. Just OK.

Kylie (only 'talent' is wearing as little as possible) I rather love her. I'm an old fag hag, what can I say?

X factor- always the same yes. Shite. Nakedly commercial trash.

The voice Haven't seen

Strictly NO. Love it. Proper old-fashioned entertainment.

Simon Cowell. Vom. Horrible man

TOM jONES -GREAT SONGS, GREAT VOICE BUT A TWUNT (oops, caps lock!!) Yes, a twunt. Undeniably a legend though.

Daniel Craig/newer james Bond I like the films mainly for Ben Whishaw but wish DC would stop pouting. He's not good-looking either and I don't like his body.

Downton Excellent fun to watch with a few people, a running commentary and running rubbish jokes.

call the midwife Haven't seen

anything big fat gypsy/Essex/chelsera/Geordie/housewives... Haven't seen

Kardashian. Not sur who they are/what they do/why

Jose Mourinho (footy fans think hes a god, but hes a mysoginist and bully) Meh. Not interested in football.

David Bekham- walking tattoo parlour, throwing toys out of pram when he was playing footy, frowning and thinks that's sexy, always showing his bulge, so obviously after a knighthood as if hes the only person whos ever played footy. don't mind him. My impression is he's dim but sweet.

As PP have said, it's all about different tastes. However, you are wrong abut Tom Jones. No details so I don't out myself, but my family have links with him and he's actually a really sound bloke.

I like Call the Midwife, that's it from your list.

Becker I am with you love...all of them irritating..and Kylie has always been crap...sorry..cancer does not stop you from being rubbish
