Topic: Famous People That You Take an Irrational Dislike To

[nuts100]

Russell Brand, utter c***

In fact it would be easier to start a thread on celebs that you like / tolerate to be honest   

[SI1978]

Robbie Williams!! I saw some Brits Icon show about him the other night and I to this day can't believe he played three nights at Knebworth!

Robbie Williams!! I saw some Brits Icon show about him the other night and I to this day can't believe he played three nights at Knebworth!

The faces he pulls, the dancing, the comparing himself to Sinatra and Buble etc, his mistreatment of Barlow who gave him the platform, his 'I am as credible as Oasis' malarky, his vdeo os the wife and his utter, unashamed lack of any special gift - and don't gimme that 'he's a good entertainer' He's a FUCKIN SHOWOFF'. Th esacking of Guy Chambers because he thought he had the same skill.
He's the worst.
The Pits

And I know there are folk with general, irrational dislikes of celebrities on here; but if there is a zenith then I have reache dit with Williams.

I despise him.

[Crosby Nick]

Lovely rant, think you've captured almost everything!

Impossible.
Everyday this asshole adds to his cannon of crap in some way. I am just not privy to it.

Read Morrissey's Biography a while back.
Williams put a note under his door (yup. That was his infantile/charming/playful tact) to entice the dour Manc claiming 'We could do something great together'.

Morrissey politely declined. Citing at the time that his handwritning was illegible.

(cue someone adding Morrissey to the list here)

Didn't Noel Gallagher call him the "fat dancer out of Take That"?

[BlackandWhitePaul]

Not quite, he said he was "Just a fat dancer from Stoke".

And thanks to Noel Gallagher too.
I bet they took the piss out of him every 2 seconds.

You missed the quiffed bleached hair, and his multitude of other styles, that mark him out as being an utter and irreconcilable tosser.

[red mongoose]

Now I'm thinking about that quieff Michael Buble. Talk about a guy who thinks he's Frank Fucking Sinatra.
I'd love to punch that guy in the throat. And then steal all of his playing cards so he couldn't play poker with his friends
Dean and Sammy and that other fucking guy who was married to one of the Kennedys or something. c*nt.

[SI1978]

At the time of those Knebworth gigs I think he thought by playing one more day than Oasis he was therefore more popular and that was the gig/gigs that everyone will talk about.  He just did it to wind up Liam and Noel.  He's just karaoke at best.

My Mrs is a Take That fan and I remember when they released that documentary just before they got back together and all ex members were interviewed separately before they all met up......apart from Williams.  He said something like why would he need to after selling so many tickets for his tour.  Fast forward twelve months and Take That far eclipse anything tour he's ever done and he's almost crawling back for forgiveness.  I have no idea what he's released since then but I imagine getting back with Take That gave his career a slight boost.  I must confess thought that I do like his song 'Lazy Days'  But other than that he is pure karaoke.

As for Morrissey, I bought his book a few years ago and my eldest who was 6 at the time asked me why I had a book with Robbie Williams on the front cover

Slappable face alright, but no doubt the boy can hold a tune.
I like him.
He joins a boy band however and we are over.

But this is why it's a good thread.

[Rysoph76]

I don't know what is about her in particular but I have never been able to stand Ellie Goulding. I don't even particularly dislike her songs I just really don't like her. I have taught my 2 kids to say 'oh shut up Ellie Goulding' whenever anything of hers comes on the radio or tv.

* as a disclaimer, I should add, that if it came down to a fist fight between her and Hopkins as suggested on twitter, i'd be in Goulding's corner all the way irrespective of the above

And that's the trouble (I don't know this song); but Williams has sung a few good songs - but they were written by Karl Wallinger and Guy Chambers, yet this clumsy fat asshole claimed them by (and I bet this is the truth) adding a random 'lyric' here or there.
I heard his lyric on a Take That song which went: 'Wash your mouth out son, or you'll find yourself floating home'.
There you have it! A few established phrases, faux tough guy edge attitude all cackhandedly patched together and hey presto: Fatboy has a credit. You know this took him 2 minutes.
That's a beginners guide to being a beginner. Or as you said it: A karaoke singer.

Regarding the Morrissey book? Well you are just kindling the flames here.

[SamAteTheRedAcid]

Jack Whitehall.

Shout!

Yeah I know where you're coming from there but I remember about three or four years ago she played Glastonbury in her underwear or something similar and I remember thinking 'respect girl'.

[IgorBobbins]

Jane Moore

Ed fucking Sheeran.  He should have that guitar shoved up his arse, he'd probably make a better sound.

I like Buble. Not into his music, but I'm impressed how hard he worked to get where he is, including raising $500,000 to get his first album produced.

[LiverLuke]

owen wilson, never found him funny at all

[Dr. Beaker]

Gary Numan - If you don't know who he is just picture a slapped arse pouting.

[The Gulleysucker]

Shami Chakrabarti.
Irrational I know, but I have just never really been able to warm to her.
On paper, she did good things at Liberty or at least appears to have taken the credit for them and certainly raised its profile by her frequent TV appearances, but I fear and suspect a certain deliberated calculation and self aggrandising posturing behind it all.
Some kind of Ambassador to the UN in her career path next I suppose.
I could be wrong, maybe she's really nice and down to earth....

Agree. In a previous life I had some dealings with Liberty, provided them with detailed information and because it didn't suit their/her narrative it was completely ignored. Seems a total careerist to me.

Odd one.
I have always liked Gary Numan. 'The Pleasure Principle' is a great piece of elctrofuture pop.
When he is interviewed on VH1 Classic he comes across a good bloke too.
I can see how the stage pout might incense.

[Raaphael]

Numan is great.

[boots]

I saw Numan at a V festival many many yrs ago. I thought he was great. He seems a down to earth bloke to me. But sometimes people can just grind your gears even if they are nice. Those two one show presenters get my vote. Especially that welsh Alex woman, she is annoying on a global scale.

YES, YES YES. RM 

Hold a tune? Yeah the same as any fucking Karaoke singer can in any town or city.

Buble is a fraud and absolute utter utter shite. These days and now I'm fully aware of his talent void, annoyance factor and the whole sack of nothingness he brings to my entertainment table, his turgid easy listening songs and his face don't make it past the first few bars or seconds on my radio or telly before he's switched off.

I have genuinely seen and heard street buskers with a hundred times better singing voice and more creativity than him.

He's the modern day Val Doonican or Daniel O'Donnell.  The difference being, I can tolerate O'Donnell or Val.

He's going to be quite difficult to avoid over Christmas but I'm committed to keeping him out of our house this festive period.

[the good half]

No way. That's too harsh by far.
He is way more than a karaoke singer.
So obvious he has an excellent voice for that style.
He might get on yer wick, BP - but the guy can sing.

Won't see very much of him this year I think cause his wee lad is sick.
But the Bubble can sing.

PS. O'Donnell is baffling in terms of his fame, but Doonican was good at what he did.

[Buck Pete]

Buble is the REAL version of this fella

[the good half]

And I suppose that's Val Doonican in the background, eh?


 

[Barneylfc∗]

Clare Balding
Claire Sweeney
Sandi Toksvig

[SI1978]

I have no idea what his name and the only time I've ever heard his voice is when he sings but for some reason the lead singer out of Biffy Clyro really irritates me! It's just his singing voice! I have no idea why!!

[Big Red Richie]

Rampant self publicist.

[red mongoose]

Peter Lawford, that's who it was. Fuck you, Buble.

[El Lobo]

Eurgh yeah Buble.

Gary Barlow as well.

[richmond-red]

Carson Daly and Ryan Seacrest. Pair of twats.

[Crosby Nick]

Carson Daly and Ryan Seacrest. Pair of twats.

Doesn't Eminem namecheck one of them? Who are they?

ITN newsreader Tom Bradby.  Has a very weird style.  Also on that subject, Rageh Omar,  or more specifically the I'll fitting baggy suits he wears like he's Chandler Bing and it's 1995.

Daly hosts the Voice, Seacrest hosts American Idol.
