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.

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

Not at all, these threads are nasty and potentially damaging

@NC543210 I was the same as your friend and really open and friendly and so expected a totally different person, it was quite surreal. I was also younger then and obviously quite shy/intimidated a bit by the situation, she was awful, typical Queen bitch type, so disappointing.

Yy to David Walliams...First person who sprung to mind for me too.

Also Peter Andre. Although knowing his history I think that one's more from that than just an 'unknown' feeling. I know perfectly well why I think he's 🤢

Tell me more about Peter Andre. What history??

Also George Galloway is seriously creepy

Agreed!

Justin timberlake gives me the ick

Same. And Ryan phillipe (not sure if I spelt that right)

Elon musk

Find him frightening.

I didn't really want to comment in this thread, but I find the size of this man's ego terrifying.

I used to hate Freddie Starr and the cartoon Max Headroom as a kid. Quite a lot of the male entertainers of the 80s really give me the creeps now.

I think being confident/narcissistic is going out of fashion now and people want someone more genuine. These people are really having to earn their money by faking it.

One of my friends had to work with Holly Willoughby for a while and hated it. When I've asked her about it she just says " she is deeply unpleasant to everyone, and exactly the opposite to what you see on TV"

I’ve heard this so many times recently 😔

Belle82 · 13/10/2024 22:47

Mr Tumble & Barry Keoghan (god this guy gives me the creeps so badly)

Dita73 · 13/10/2024 22:53

Not sure how I forgot this one….Jeremy Kyle 😖

Dita73 · 13/10/2024 23:03

Oh and one of the ultimates has to be Damian Hurley. Not sure what the hell is going on there

Tim Waltz
Hillary Clinton
Madonna
Kier Starmer
Gerry Adams
Beyonce

When I was a kid in the 70s, there was an actor called Ronald Fraser. My mum used to laugh at me if he came on TV, as I would cringe so badly, I nearly turned myself inside out. Huge creep factor and at that age, I have no idea why!
I'd like to throw Michaela Strachan and Alex Brooker in the mix too. Nobody has mentioned them and they both give me "off" vibes! Proper creepy!
There are a lot on here that I'd say I dislike, but they don't give me the major creeps.
I used to like Savile on the tv, until I met him in person in the 80s and my creepometer shot off up into space!!!

Is that you Holly?😉

Lighten up, it's just tittle tattle on the Internet. I seriously don't think Holly minds or any of the other weird creepy celebs .

Nowandforeveridontcare · 13/10/2024 23:32

@HildaHosmede What’s that about Peter Andre, what history?

Nowandforeveridontcare · 13/10/2024 23:33

People saying Beyoncé? Creepy how?

Icannoteven · 13/10/2024 23:33

Ed Sheeran comes across as the creepiest of creeps. Seriously chills me.

I also can’t stand Katherine Birbalsingh. I think she is a gigantic narcissist who has a deep hatred of children and resents anyone who allows them any autonomy, individuality or humanity. It completely blows my mind that so many people in power have bought into her methods since they are very clearly rooted in her deep emotional issues. That interview she did with Jordan Peterson. - you can see she isn’t right in the head. Very neurotic, very histrionic. I think there will eventually be a scandal, she will be outed for the bully she clearly is and those who have enabled her will distance themselves.

Ed Sheeran is a lovely guy though, no one has a bad word to say about him. Do you think your reaction might be because of his eyes? I think he has a bit of a lazy eye, I think they’re quite far apart too and that you find this creepy?

I used to think Timothee Chalamet was a lovely looking lad but now I think he looks like one of those half goat/half men things from Narnia and it’s all I can see when I look at him.
