I was very upset confused & amused to find that Noel Clarke has blocked me on Twitter.

I've never even interacted with the bloke & I really like him as an actor & the films & tv shows he's in. No fucking idea how I've come to be blocked 🤷🏼‍♀️😂

Have you ever upset a celebrity? Did you knick Baby Spice's parking space? Did you spill a drink on Keith Chegwin?

I was walking back to work once, gazing at the ground as I usually do, and had that feeling that I was being stared at. I looked up, and Phil Jupitus was glaring at me like I was his arch-nemesis. So now he's my arch-nemesis.

And on the twitter blocking, agreed that it's probably because of a block list - a lot of people use 'terf' blocklists that are easy to get onto, for example.

Oh yes. A few years ago at a private festival, I saw some bloke playing guitar (badly imo) in the bar area, he had about 5 women around him. Being at the wrong end of a few drinks, I helpfully stopped his mini-performance and told him he would sound better if he played his song in another frett, and used a wider range other than C,D and G chords (I play a little). Anyhow, he was NOT happy. DP pulled me aside pissing himself laughing to tell me he was a famous guitarist/singer, many No1's, household name etc. Genuinely can't remember the blokes band name at moment, so will check later with DP.

@RubbishSwimmer - I love Bob Mortimer; so glad he was as nice to you in real life as he seems on TV.

myusernamewastakenbyme · 10/03/2020 17:19

About 25 years ago i was extremely drunk in a nightclub in Cheshire...I think it was in Prestbury/Wilmslow where all the footballers live....anyway I staggered drunk into Louis Emerick an actor from Brookside....he was very sweet and asked me if i was ok.
Also working at a hotel in Cheshire on Reception i had the misfortune of meeting Ronnie Corbett....he was vile to me.....he'd come back from an evening out and was demanding room service ....it was 11pm at night the kitchen was closed and all the chefs had gone home....he was really nasty...I was gutted as i'd loved The Two Ronnies growing up.

@RubbishSwimmer I love Bob Mortimer. He's a legend ❤️

PyongyangKipperbang · 10/03/2020 17:23

Bit outing but exDH called Quentin Tarantino a twat at a film festival once because he'd tried barging to the front of the queue at the bar.

Namethecat · 10/03/2020 17:24

I've interviewed a fair few authors in a live audience situation. Most famous being Martina Cole. Out of all of them she was the only one who supplied the questions to be asked . Her replay were very quick of the mark and a few sarcastic retorts back to me which made it look like I was asking a silly question to receive a quick fire reply I don't like her anymore -

QueenOfOversharing · 10/03/2020 17:25

@NoraEphronsneck do not get between Claudia & the Doritos 😬

@Yourteaisgettingcold well done for pointing that out - I hate all that shit on Instagram.

@Abelino 😬 I think he's a close friend of a friend of mine. I'm pretty sure they went to school together. 😂

I made Heather Mills deeply unhappy by falling into conversation with Paul McCartney in the green room at Parkinson a million years ago -- she came over and actually inserted herself into the gap between us, baring her teeth.

And according to DH I once asked a household name premier league footballer what he did for a living. I can't remember who, at this point. Might have been the angry potato-faced one with the hair transplant and mature hookers.

Onetickettomars · 10/03/2020 17:25

Yes, a few times...

I asked Zach Efron why the paparazzi were outside the hotel lobby we were standing in (just me and him in a central London hotel lobby, I didn’t know who he was!).

I also got the last train seat and (a very grumpy) Alan Rickman stood next to my seat for half an hour.

At my cousin’s wedding I asked a guy what he did for work... turned out he was the captain of our national rugby team and about a week earlier he’d won the Six Nations cup😂

So basically I dented a few egos haha

patsywho · 10/03/2020 17:26

Name changed for this as I've told a few people.

Saw Patsy Palmer in Chester, must've been well over 15 years ago. I started shouting 'Patsy Kensit! Patsy Kensit!' She looked at me like I had two heads 😂 wasn't until she walked off I realised she was Palmer!

HulksPurplePanties · 10/03/2020 17:26

Back in the late 90's I was walking along the shore of a very popular seaside town where a lot of celeb's live/vacation. My DGM is from there (a poor local) and I had taken my then boyfriend to visit.

Whilst walking (on a route I will admittedly say I had seen Sandra Bullock, Sean Penn, Jim Carrey & Liz Hurley, so I am slightly to blame) a man with a ginger scruff and large belt buckle passed us.

Now, ex DBF and I immediately started making jokes about Walker Texas Ranger, starring Chuck Norris, I began doing high kicks. Man looked back at us and scowled.

Newspaper next day: Chuck Norris is in * little fucking village**

I insulted Chuck Norris to his face, and live to tell the tale.

MaggieMagpie357 · 10/03/2020 17:28

I ran over Lisa from Steps' son's foot with my luggage trolley at Heathrow. She glared at me.

I also upset one of the presenters/designers of nineties hit TV show Changing Rooms at the end of series wrap party, just by pointing out he was wearing the same jacket to the party as he had done in the episode of the show I'd recently edited.

But my best upset celebrity claim to fame was when Michael Palin had to ask me to turn the music down at my hen party.

Dard · 10/03/2020 17:28

Blocked by Mel b for commenting her book was not honest,and Calum best for saying a bit old for ex on the beach

RubbishSwimmer · 10/03/2020 17:29

Good to see all the Bob Mortimer love.

Top bloke, as warm and funny as you see on that there TV.

DartmoorDoughnut · 10/03/2020 17:29

My Granny upset Robbie Williams when he went to look at her house which was for sale as she had no idea who he was 🤷🏻‍♀️😂 it was at the height of take that fame I think and I was mortified and begged to be there if he booked a second viewing, he didn’t

Billyeyelash · 10/03/2020 17:30

@patsywho. 😂😂😂😂😂😂😂 That's made me cry laughing.

EscapeTheCastle · 10/03/2020 17:31

As a big film fan I was very embarrassed to upset Micheal Caine 20 years ago as his blooming credit card wouldn't bloody work.

He was clearly unimpressed with me as I tried again and again with his card. He produced the cash with the same disappointed air he has with Batman when he's gone a bit rouge. sort of a tut tut "Oh, Master Wayne.."

Goinglive · 10/03/2020 17:31

I got told to move my fuxcking mini bus by Jimmy Saville once.

He doesnt really deserve to be called a sleb tho. Nasty evil thing.

Worriedmom2020 · 10/03/2020 17:32

Jeffree Star blocked me twice on two social medias, for calling out a Photoshop fail, and saying I didn't like a palette.

He blocks loads of people though so I'm not special. I actually haven't brought any of his makeup since either, so he saved me a small fortune! 👍

OhNoNoNoNotThatOne · 10/03/2020 17:32

Katie Price, she was doing a book signing at the supermarket I worked at.
I was part of the team that was looking after her and she just took against me, refused to acknowledge me when I took her to the managers office where she was getting ready...

LuluJakey1 · 10/03/2020 17:32

OP - why are you writing such offensive, abusive remarks about some celebrities? You sound like a nasty teenager taking an opportunity to show off by just saying rude things about other people. It's pathetic!

No problem with the title of the thread and the other posters but some of your own remarks are just pointlessly horrible.

Pavalacerny · 10/03/2020 17:38

I once squeezed past Paulo Nutini in a crowded bar rubbing my tummy against his back ( not on purpose and I didn't know it was him) he didn't look to happy when he turned around to see it was only me and not some sexy babe pressed up against him! I think he thought I was sleezing on him but I was really just trying to get by him and had no idea who it was till he turned round. He was very cute even with an annoyed look on his face :)

hamstersarse · 10/03/2020 17:40

I upset Cian from Westlife by calling him Nicky (that may be the wrong way round)

I upset Ryan Giggs by turning him down - for what was presumably a hotel room shag

I upset Kirsty Allsop by helping her child while she was busy chatting to someone else and not watching her

QueenOfOversharing · 10/03/2020 17:40

Shit. Everybody stop. No more rude words. So fucking childish on here.
Hmm
