Who do you dislike intensely? (Celebrities)

Does anyone else have a intense dislike of a celebrity or other individual for no real (valid) reason? I am sure these are lovely people but I can't stand them to the point that I actually feel disgusted and repelled by them!

Amanda Holden - I have NO idea why! Maybe her lack of emotion on her face!
James Corden - Someone who thinks he is funnier than he is, but hardly disgust worthy!
David Walliams - In fairness I'm bisexual and his faux gay/bisexual hammy behaviour makes me furious though its hardly a good reason.
Stacy Dooley - Its the accent. I don't know why as I am sure she is a really caring, kind-hearted soul.
Bing - Okay so not a real person but still I detest him. Moany, self-centred cry-baby!

So! Anyone want to confess your dislike for people for no particular (valid) reason?

Glad someone agrees with me about this pathetic excuse for a human being!😂

AllHailKingLouis · 12/06/2022 20:52

Ant and Dec. It’s about time they fucked off now, surely?

Kyle Minogue actually makes me angry and I have no idea why. Just the thought of her is irritating me. Literally no idea why I feel like this about her.

Girlmama · 12/06/2022 20:56

Helen Mirren. Forgot about her on my earlier list. Jeez there's a woman who makes my teeth itch

Ladywiddio · 12/06/2022 20:57

Cliff Richard,gives me the creeps.
Philip Schofield.
Amanda Holden.
Adele.
Michael Fabric*nt.My MP,he also gives me the creeps.
David Williams.

Boris Johnson ( + his father and sister)

Rishi Sunak

Michael Gove

Brandon Lewis

Priti Patel

Nadine Dorris

Dominic Rabb

Alexander Armstrong, Holly Willoughby ( dreadful woman who is a mum at our DS"s school is friends with her, this confirmed my view), Philip Schofield . How are these people on TV and who watches them?

The answer is we live in a country where the people voted for the above.
As Tony Benn once said an uneducated population are easier to govern...

Isitgoldorsilver · 12/06/2022 21:01

Michael Fabric*nt.My MP,he also gives me the creeps.

I can't believe that I left him on my list @Ladywiddio 😨

Purplebunnie · 12/06/2022 21:01

And and Dec - talentless
Ricky Gervais - ditto talentless and smug
Andrew Lloyd-Webber - podgy hands makes my flesh creep but acknowledge he is absolutely brilliant composer
and here is the most controversial as so many people love him - Elvis - made my flesh creep, couldn't stand the lip curling and the hip swilling, wanted to be violently sick - sorry

When I can't sleep, I compile a list of people I'd like to leave on a desert island. Ant and Dec are top of the list with Paul McCartney. I'd also put his ex wife Heather Mills on there- not because I dislike her but because it'd piss Paul McCartney off, cannot bear him!

I thought DH and I were the only ones to hate Paul McCartney 🤣

Georgeskitchen · 12/06/2022 21:04

Lily Allen 🤮
J Corbyn and his sidekick D. Abbott 🤮
Bonio and Geldof, cant stand preachy pop stars
Pip Schofield and that awful excruciating hero worshipping when he came out. I wanted to throw a brick at the telly
Olivia Colman and Sarah Lancashire, both indelibly typecast as angst ridden middle aged women.
Ken Barlow, didn't he sue The Sun for saying that he was boring?

Lipsandlashes · 12/06/2022 21:06

Can I put forward a nomination for Laura Whitmore and her equally irritating and smug husband.

MistyGreenAndBlue · 12/06/2022 21:07

Can't believe no one's mentioned Jameela Jamil. Just awful and soooooo stupid yet won't shut up with her ridiculous opions.

Emma Watson isn't much better and so bitchy with it.

Hesma · 12/06/2022 21:09

Alan Carr…. his voice is like nails on a blackboard

XelaM · 12/06/2022 21:10

The Royal family. All of them including the Queen

Naga Munchetty
Charlie Stayt
Michael McIntyre
Paddy McGuiness
Gini d’Acampo
Laurence Fox in recent times

Piers Morgan, a million times

Bluevelvetsofa · 12/06/2022 21:16

Alexander Armstrong
Richard Osman
Any MP, but the usual suspects in particular and Michael Gove, even more particularly.
Tom Allen

Pedallleur · 12/06/2022 21:17

I'm adding a lot of names to my list. Politicians don't count as celebrities imo. Showbiz makes these people popular and has a vested interest in keeping them there. Alan Carr and his pretend voice. Claudia Winkelman and those shampoo ads!!. Geri Horner.

harriethoyle · 12/06/2022 21:20

Ferne Cotton. EVERYTHING about her makes me feel intense rage. No idea why!

Myleene Klass. Ditto.

Vince Vaughan. Makes me feel almost nauseous...

I absolutely used to loathe Bruce Forsyth too, patronising sexist fool.

Steve Wright must know where all the BBC bodies are buried because there is no other reason for his omnipresence of radio 2 which gets an immediate switchover from me!

WishILivedInThrushGreen · 12/06/2022 21:23

Cliff Richard has creeped me out for decades.

Also get very irritated by
Sarah Pascoe
Susan Calman
Donald Trump
Boris Johnson
Jacob Rees Mogg
James Acaster

Phil Jupitus . Now I'm not suggesting for a moment that it's him, but I recall a behind the scenes story about the tv series QI.
The article suggested that cast and crew /production team found a particular male panellist who appeared fairly regularly, that they didn't like having on the show.
It was said that this man was difficult and always needed the questions beforehand so that he could hone his gags and quips.

Again, I'm NOT saying it's him but he has a tendency to constantly look at the audience for their response to his gags.
He also seems to want to be the centre of attention.

I really don't like him and his humour usually goes over my head .

Just saying.

Gillian Anderson — Annoying, not that good of an actor, queer baits to sell her tv shows, chaotic, and that horrible way she changed the way she speaks (not the accent as I understand she’s biadilectic) but the way she tried to make herself posh and now uses ‘one this, one that’ since she started getting roles in period dramas. She really grates.

Pip Schofield — the hero worship of him is something I just don’t get. And his stupid car ads need putting in the bin.

Ant and Dec — though actually it’s more Ant. I quite like Dec, always have. He doesn’t need Ant and proved it. The way Ant has been ‘forgiven’ makes me sick. He crashed his car into a vehicle carrying a child ffs!

WishILivedInThrushGreen · 12/06/2022 21:25

Oh, and apologies for grammar / sense.
Fat finger pressed send too quickly.

WishILivedInThrushGreen · 12/06/2022 21:31

MermaidSwimming · 12/06/2022 21:35

Johnny Vegas, everything about him annoys me

KyaClark · 12/06/2022 21:36

Chris Evans , the actor.

He makes me feel physically sick but I've no idea why. I can't stand looking at his face. I can't watch anything with him in it.

Dajeeling · 12/06/2022 21:36

Pretty much any of the ITV ‘stars’. ITV need to really find out what their viewers want and have a big shake up. Give it a few years and Phillip Schofield will have a worse rep than John Leslie- it’ll be like a domino effect once the first person gets out there and blabs about his behaviour.

Rio Ferdinand.
Jools Holland.
Claire Balding.
Lesley Garrett.

Derrymum123 · 12/06/2022 21:42
