Sabrina Carpenter, absolutely.

Michael Sheen — he always irritated me even before he knocked up someone younger than his daughter, but that made it worse. I felt vindicated when someone who’d worked with him in theatre said he was a complete nightmare and all the theatre staff hated him.

Me too there is just something I can't put my finger on.

I don't like the constant fist pumping when he goes and sits down. Have a bit of humility when you're ahead

Yes! I feel irritated when I see him do it 😄

He deservedly won just now but I just am icked out

Sabrina I assume is because she is sexy given you haven’t elaborated…

Max Verstappen. Whenever a race isn't going his way its always someone else's fault.

That title he got handed to him by the race director in the farce that ended the credibility of F1 when Hamilton had his title stolen from him, that was shameless from him to accept it.

He show his low standing as a human.

Alison Hammond! Unfunny, I cannot listen to her! And she's on bloody everything.

Agree with those who said Taylor Swift too!!

Ciarogue · 06/07/2025 21:15

Nicola Walker - the twitching depressed low energy vibe.

I could be here all day. Most of mine are covered but I will add a slightly specialist entry for Faf de Klerk. I fully appreciate that he is a highly talented scrum half and a key factor in the Springboks world cups but there is something sooooo punchable about him.

With you on the Pit Pony. He’s definitely a great rugby player but there’s something slightly grubby about him.

I can't stand Iain Stirling. Irritating and unfunny.

And misogynistic too. Have you seen him on Taskmaster? Even he says at one point that it was uncomfortable watching himself back and apologises to a female contestant for his behaviour.

WhereYouLeastExpect · 06/07/2025 21:17

Paddy McGuiness. He's not funny in the slightest and completely ruined A Question of Sport.

Rosscameasdoody · 06/07/2025 21:17

Naga Munchetti. Full of herself.

Lack of talent from the failed Disney singer would be the main reason.

Shoot me now, but those Gallagher brothers! That nasal singing, the idiotic quarrelling that they still indulge in even though they are both well into middle age, the way they dress, their nepo kids, on and on it goes. To be fair I hope that all the fans who did manage to get a ticket have the time of their lives as there is nothing like the buzz of seeing your favourite band live, it is is so thrilling. The other thing I hate about them is that I will now have an Oasis earworm for the next hour or so, like an adenoidal wasp resonating in my skull

Yes. All of the above. But also traveling 150 miles and taking time off work to see them the first time round. They were on for 20 mins, Liam called the crowd a bunch of c*nts and said they were off because of missiles being thrown. It was an empty fecking water bottle that landed on the stage. Nothing to do with him being wasted and sounding like shit then? They've not had a penny of my money since. Twats.

Keira Knightley - no idea why but I can't watch her because I find her so irrationally annoying 😒

Cliff Richard. Very creepy man. I am convinced he’s guilty of something serious that we’ll never know about.

Me too. Absolutely.

Someone said she acts with her chin, and I can’t unsee it.

Alison Hammond - can’t stand her and her false laugh

PumpkinPie2016 · 06/07/2025 21:22

@lifeonmars100 I also can't stand the Gallagher brothers!

Both sing through their noses and it's so grating!

He's one annoying fucker!!

He's annoying and creepy, but it feels unreasonable to hate him because he's nice, does charity work, and is a good sport (the 80s video with the cast of the Young Ones - credit where credit's due, I loved that when I was little). Mistletoe and Wine is the worst record of all time by a considerable margin, though.

Nice to see other haters of that puerile showoff Robin Williams and the vile, greasy, uncouth Jamie Oliver, BLEURGH. I thought it was just me!

My irrationally hated celeb is Alexa Chung. She was everywhere in the days when I still bought printed magazines, always with a fawning commentary about her wonderful style - which amounted to nothing more than being skinny and inexplicably ubiquitous. I found her stupid smug face incredibly enraging, even though she may not be at all stupid or smug IRL and is probably a perfectly inoffensive person.

Sabrina isn't 'sexy' she is just try hard and annoying and pornified. That said, I am grateful to her for one thing and one thing alone: she has popularised the correct pronunciation of 'espresso'. It infuriates me when people pronounce it 'expresso' so I can thank her for that at least.

David Walliams
Matt Lucas
Amanda Holden
Jimmy Carr

These don't seem irrational.

@BlueRidgeMountain and definitely not Gary Linneker

Ah now I'd never noticed Gary Lineker but I've run into him several times irl and he's LUSH in the flesh.

lifeonmars100 · 06/07/2025 21:25

Every z list fucker that has a podcast, nobody wants to hear your brainless opinions on stupid topics, stand up Katie Price and your sister as prime examples. Makes me long for the olden days when a celeb could only get a hearing when they were invited to appear on a mainstream platform, now thanks to social media they are everywhere,

100% on Alexa Chung. She isn't awful or anything, but I got annoyed by everyone fawning over her, as you say. If she had a normal body instead of an emaciated one nobody would be impressed by her style, which is very basic. That said, I would still take her over the likes of the Kardashians with their enhanced body parts and awful grating voices.
