Julia Roberts. Not sure why, she just irritated me from the first time I saw her on screen.

I've mellowed a bit over the years, used to avoid any movie she was in but don't deliberately do that now.

• Claire Balding, Claire Balding, Claire Balding (entirely without charm)
• Noel Gallagher (tedious self-regarding egotist and professional tool)
• Adrian Chiles (fucking stupid pointless boring Guardian column. And I say that as a Guardian reader)
• Elizabeth Day (thanks to @MerrieFerry for reminding me – major sycophant masquerading as insightful interviewer)

Am sure none of the above would be hugely impressed by me, but whevs

The woman from the weight loss ad who complains about Mysterious Other Ppl theoretically making her feel bad about using weight loss medication

RawBloomers · 07/07/2025 00:18

Also Nicolas Cage.

Matt Dawson the rugby player. Can’t stand him. It all started when he was on strictly years ago. I imagine he has a real propensity to be spiteful.

Taytayslayslay · 07/07/2025 00:23

Jake Gyllenhaal and James Corden

So many but the main offenders are;

Cliff Richard
Rod Stewart (mostly for his weird insistence that he is Scottish and wheeling out the bagpipes on a regular basis!)
Claudia Winkleman (just for the hideous fringe!)
Will Smith
The cast of Friends and Mrs Brown’s Boys.

Poonu · 07/07/2025 00:28

Vogue Williams (not irrational)

pippapipps · 07/07/2025 00:28

Amanda Holden and Carol Voderman 😡

I've got 2...

Cheryl Cole
Tom Daly

I will not be taking any questions on this 🤣

Tom Daly used a surrogate. Which in my eyes is gross.

No particular problem with Cheryl, just indifferent tbh.

I never had a particular opinion on Rod but his recent support of Farage makes those very much reasonable!

He's an annoying git with all things Celtic and then his Farage lecture oh and the tartan shite.
Hope he enjoyed Aberdeen beating Celtic in the Scottish cup 😁

Joel Dommet .I switch over if he is on .I can’t stand his voice he is so annoying .

Lalgarh · 07/07/2025 00:48

Alex Jones

Dogstar78 · 07/07/2025 00:55

Lulu. Her voice grates on me. She loves herself, especially loves talking about herself. They could record her 'stories' and play them to sick animals vets would save a fortune on ketamine. At least when they are out cold they'll be saved from her incessant name dropping.

And in agreement with most suggestions, especially Amanda Holden and Holly Willowby.

Can I also throw in Richard Madely and Sarah Millican, her voice makes me shudder writing this. I know loads of people like her.

Zara McDermott and her 'inciteful' documentaries- 4 hours to determine Ibiza has drugs on the island.

The red headed one from Girls Aloud- she just always seemed like a bit of a wet weekend.

Sports presenters- mostly all, that chunter on about absolute crap.

Anyway I'll stop now otherwise we'll have noone left.

Dogstar78 · 07/07/2025 00:56

Lorrymum · 06/07/2025 22:52

Lulu, just so phone. Scottish accent when it suits. Also puts her "youthful" looks down to yoga!

Jist realised you beat me to Lulu....maybe she had her face-lift, fillers and botox when she was in her downward dog??

gruberandassocs · 07/07/2025 01:00

Chris Martin - dh once said he thought he looked like he had smelly feet and because I sort of knew what he meant that's all I associate him with now.

YankSplaining · 07/07/2025 01:02

Pink. I feel like she’s way too old and too famous for her whole “misunderstood outsider” schtick, and early in her career, her whole persona was basically, “I’m tough and badass, unlike all those brainless blonde bitches out there.” She’s like the personification of “not like other girls.”

Pedro Pascal, because I hate how he’s being pushed on us as this “sensitive male” and then goes after J. K. Rowling.

And, least popular answer ever - Robin Williams used to annoy the living shit out of me. Whenever he was interviewed, he always had to be “on” with the jokes and voices, which struck me as so self-important and attention-seeking. Like, “Wow, I’m so hilarious, I just can’t help myself!”

From all accounts, he was a nice guy, and I thought he was good in some of his dramatic roles. (“One-Hour Photo” deserves much more attention than it gets.) So this was probably truly irrational on my part.

Amanda Holden. She's just odd.

I saw a picture of her riding a bike and I thought it was Steve Tyler.

Peter Andre
Lorraine Kelly
Steps (as a collective lol, RIP to the decreased one though)

There isn’t a deceased one of steps?

vyvyanne · 07/07/2025 01:46

Phil Tufnell.

So insufferably smug.
And his stupid nickname.

No there isn't, it was someone from S Club 7.

Gingernaut · 07/07/2025 01:51

TaggieO · 07/07/2025 01:29

Might have confused Steps with either S-Club-7 (Paul Cattermole RIP) or Girls Aloud (Sarah Harding RIP)
