I know that their living depends on staying relevant but these are challenging times for such self indulgence when people have more pressing issues. But some celebs who are normally not massively annoying, are making reputation destroying SM entries.
So far, The usually wonderful Ellen has peed off a lot of people, Michael Buble, Ollie Muirs(???), Madonna and loads more.
Any others making your cringe gland rupture?

I know I am part of the problem and this is not important but I am bored.

The Beckhams & all the other megamoney sods trying to get us to pay their employees wages ( you know who you are Phillip Green & Richard Branson.
Madonna

I'm not defending AH, but I think it should be pointed out that she was famous before she went anywhere near Les Dennis.

oldperson1 · 06/05/2020 13:08

Think Amanda Holden told her little girl to Shutup stop being silly when she said she thought Simon Cowell had split up from his partner when Amanda was on the telephone
Oh also forgot Gordon Ramsay

@Pickles89, that was hilarious 😂 and completely on topic, examples of what celebs could be doing instead of selfies in mirrors etc.

I haven't seen any of these. I must look them all up now :)

Noconceptofnormal · 06/05/2020 13:54

I expect someone has mentioned Prince Harry and Meghan Markle by now. I fairness I quite enjoy reading about their latest faux pas, so in a way I think they provide a useful public service.

Richard Branson obviously. Enjoying him begging for tax payers money for a bail out when only a few months ago he sued the NHS (so I directly the tax payer). Hoping the government tells him to go fuck himself.

Elon Musk has just raised the bar exponentially with his baby's name...

X Æ A-12 Musk

I gather it's pronounced A-T-T-E-N-T-I-O-N S-E-E-K-I-N-G

Sophie Ellis Bextor has always been cool. Could never be doing with the pisstaking on NeverMTBC

The majority of these have passed me by as I've barely had time to keep up with AIBU during lockdown, never mind media in general.... However I will also agree that Jameela Jamil is diving off the deep end into wokeism!!

Even just 6 months ago she seemed to be a decent advocate, educating, interesting etc.... I was trying not ro slip into late middle age without being informed.... Now she's just trying to be everything ro everyone and has gone a bit mad in my eyes!!

On the other end of the scale I'm loving John Krasinski's "Some Good News", currently the only "news" I'm watching and thoroughly enjoying!

@OfaFrenchmind2, funnily enough Idris was going on my opening post, but that seems like years ago now and I have no feelings good or bad about him. So meh, pretty much. You're right though, he lost a lot of respect.

Any sign of Jordan? I wonder how she is getting on.

Smellbellina · 06/05/2020 15:49

@TheOnlyLivingBoyInNewCross crikey wonder what his nickname is, that’s one hell of a moniker!

chunkycoke · 06/05/2020 15:50

I’m happy to see Joe Pasquale is doing good. I love that man.

user1471565182 · 06/05/2020 16:18

Stewart Lee says Pasquale is a joke stealer though....

ducksback · 06/05/2020 16:19

Sam Smith bawling on the pavement. Get over yourself you insufferable prick

THIS.

derxa · 06/05/2020 16:28

Any sign of Jordan? I wonder how she is getting on. Do you mean Katie Price? She's moved out of her Mucky Mansion and moved nearer to Peter Andre. You're welcome Wink

Amanda Holden wasn’t famous at all before she married her Les Dennis. When they got married, she’d been on Blind Date and been a guest star in a handful of episodes of Eastenders and that’s it.

LuckyAmy1986 · 06/05/2020 17:31

Re Lauren Goodger, I just feel very sorry for her. I don’t think she’ll ever be happy.

LakieLady · 06/05/2020 17:46

The upside of having hair that's such a mess I look like fucking Medusa is that not having been to the hairdresser, I don't know any of this stuff.

Nothing surprises me about Amanda Holden. I'm hard pressed to think of anyone whose ego is more out of proportion to their talent.

Darcydashwood · 06/05/2020 17:53

I’d just like to say that this thread has really cheered me up- so thanks 😂

Tappering · 06/05/2020 18:29

Didn't Amanda Holden dress her daughter up in a red evening dress as Vivien from Pretty Woman, for World Book Day?

And then deleted the photo after she got marmalised on Twitter for dressing a young kid up as a character who plays a prostitute.

Sparklingbrook · 06/05/2020 18:31

Yep Tappering, it's never ending with all her social media dramas.

Notredamn · 06/05/2020 18:34

That is so fucking weird!

3luckystars · 06/05/2020 18:39

Was Pretty Woman a book??

Ah I dont mind Amanda Holden, I know she loves attention but that's her job to stay in the news or she will have no income.

You know I was thinking about all this plastic surgery and wondering if you have the money, will the surgeon just keep doing it? I was remembering of a friend of mine years ago and he maintained that its years later that the plastic surgery starts looking weird. Like he said that Michael Jackson probably hadn't had anything done for years but it was years previously that the damage was done. All these people getting things done now, hey might just look a bit puffed up but it's in a few years that they will really start looking wonky.
