For me the biggest one is Jacob Rees Mogg. He puts the fear of God in me. He reminds me of some villain in a horror film. If I see him on TV or a picture of him I actually get the chills.

I also find a really unsettling energy about Louis Walsh and David Walliams.

@PrincessHoneysuckle Just very sort of mean girl, very intimidating, seemed like a nasty/dark side to her, very disappointing, I assumed she’d be very lovely. Not a good person

@2MargerinesOnTheGo "Alan Davies aka Johnathan Creek, QI. There is something about him I really feel fearful of, and everyone I have told do not have the same response."

You are aware that he was sexually abused for a long time by his father?

YY to David Tennant

Yes. Fully aware and fully sympathetic and in awe of his bravery. However, I am still fearful of something. It doesn’t make me right, just like comments from everyone else doesn’t make them right. Reactions are personal. His looks might remind me of something I found scary as a child. I don’t know what it is. I am not fearful of him because of his life experiences, I don’t know him, just like 99% of other commenters here don’t know the person they are reacting to, but I am fearful of something.

Nowandforeveridontcare · 13/10/2024 14:27

Yes I also feel uneasy about him

CurlewKate · 13/10/2024 14:49

Seriously-am I the only person who finds this public labelling of total strangers unpleasant, dangerous and, frankly, creepy?

Daniel O'Donnell. Off the creepy Richter Scale!

How could I forget about him?
I remember the awful story popbitch told that was obviously meant to be about him years ago. Very disturbing.

CurlewKate · 13/10/2024 15:30

Fair enough,@P1550FF. But it's important to remember that journalists scour this forum for stories.

@Theotherone234 I used to babysit for R + J and am pleased to tell you J was/is a v nice mother 😀

I'm very happy to hear that. Not sure why I find her cold though.

Holly Willoughby really is a self entitled little madam who has trampled over everyone to get where she is. She gives me the ick and I’m no Schofield fan.

They suggested this person visits orphanages/kids' homes abroad and not for good reasons...

@iamtheblcksheep She was scary, which sounds ridiculous to say as a grown woman

Aside from the ones with sexual assault allegations, Russell Brand, Neil Gaiman and probably more that we don’t yet know about, Paul Hollywood.

Neil Gaiman has 6 sexual assault allegations against him currently, so you may be right there.

She's 43, so hardly a little madam
