Not endorsing violence obviously but if it were just a harmless slap on a fantasy level - no consequences, no scandal, just vibes, who would be on your list?

Mine would be:

  • Trump - not technically a celeb but come on.
  • Diddy - no notes needed.
  • Jay Z - eternally smug and cheated on Beyoncé? Slap.
  • Kanye - not even sure where to start.
  • Chris Brown - this one’s personal, we all know why.
  • Kendall Jenner - something about her is just rude.

AIBU to think some people’s energy is just slap-worthy?

Chad Michael Murray. I'm a sucker for a cheesy Christmas film but he seems to turn up in all of them with his annoying floppy hair and broken nose. Plus he's got a stupid name.

Look at him - the twat

Bloody hell, it’s Noel Edmonds!

Brendahollowayjustlookwhatyouhavedone · 15/12/2025 07:34

Farage
Tommy Robinson
Trump
Sandi toksvig
Denise welch
Lorraine Kelly.

One thing that’s interesting about this thread are the number of people who class politicians as celebrities. Other than someone like Trump who was a celebrity before being a politician, I wouldn’t class them as such, but perhaps that’s a sign of the very low calibre of politicians we have!

Heylittlesongbird · 15/12/2025 07:42

I have nodded along with so many of these that my list is now vert long. All I can say at this point is that I wouldnt slap Judi Dench.

Or perhaps just people that we would like to slap regardless of celebrity status.👍😁

Friendlyfart · 15/12/2025 07:45

Apart from the obvious Trump, Farage, Putin (goes without saying). If Farage becomes PM I might have to emigrate as the urge to slap that heinous toad face would be too much to bear.

Amanda Holden

Alex Jones

Charlotte Church

Anyone on Loose Women. I had the misfortune of watching it for 10 mins the other day - what a load of tripe it was. Even Christine Lampard looked embarrassed to be on there.

Def Louis Theroux now. He is dead to me after pretty much endorsing the scum that is Bob Vylan.

Maybe we should have a separate thread for politicians you’d like to slap.

Though I guess it would be quite boring.

”All of them” for 40 pages 🤣.

Politicians you wouldn’t want to slap could be more interesting.

Emma Watson
Lily Allen
Gary Neville
Hugh Bonneville (ughhh)
Gary Lineker

and many more ….

Oh god yes Fiona Bruce doing her Smug, Smugger, Smuggest act on Antiques Roadshow.

Orville

Ha, I am a bit older and don’t know quite a few of the names on this thread, so need to google a few. But yes to this! I never found Orville sweet or cute. He was extremely irritating. Presuming I am thinking about the right Orville.😏

TheChicDreamer · 15/12/2025 08:05

David Beckham - smarmy smug twat
Victoria Beckham - takes herself waaaay too seriously
Amanda Holden - no need to elaborate. Dick head.
Nigel Farage - ditto
Trump - ditto
Musk - ditto
Most ‘influencers’ - yaaaawwn
Katie Price - irresponsible twat
Emma Watson - for reasons already outlined
Jimmy Carr - stupid donkey laugh that’s clearly fake and not at all funny
Kate Beckinsale - sort yourself out
Lily Allen - ditto. Just go and live quietly somewhere and grow up.

PaulineScrambledPhones · 15/12/2025 08:05

Brock Lesner shudder

There are a few people I wouldn’t give a slap because I dislike them, but to try and slap some sense into them! Rosie Ramsey, for instance.

Kate Winslet
Judi Dench
Emma Thompson
Cate Blanchett

Probably the least annoying people and come across as intelligent and thoughtful. Would love to know who you like.

CharlesPetrescu · 15/12/2025 08:13

Many of the aforementioned people - plus Gwyneth Paltrow.

Katie Price. Her behaviour over the years just enrages me. Her kids are going to grow up with so many issues, that is unforgivable of her to damage them the way she has.

She was voted mum of the year before!!! It was absolutely ages ago but it shocked me lol

Me too. But Peter Andre won celeb dad of the year and he needs a metaphorical slap too. Nasty piece of work.

It really is.

And of course he's called Chad.

fingfong · 15/12/2025 08:43

I'm really just adding to this thread to make my place - laughing my head off with most of the selections, and wholeheartedly agreeing! Can I add that creepy, smelly looking one with the hair from bake-off.

Whereareyourshoes · 15/12/2025 09:08

All celebrities who use slurs against women while claiming to be feminists.
All those celebrities that think it's ok to exploit women's bodies through surrogacy.
All those virtue signalling celebrities who mindlessly support making it easier for male people to access spaces where women and girls are vulnerable.
All those unable to comprehend that being a woman is not about being feminine and 'being kind' and being support humans for sad men and boys.
