Celine Dion.

I want her to die. I have no real reason. Just that whenever I see her face, I want to scream and punch her, at the same time. And her voice…

SO glad someone else agrees with me about Jack Nicholson. I’ve never liked his acting and I find the fact that he won’t give interviews or sign autographs to be annoying. Not that celebrities live in the lime light, but they do owe something to their fans.

I also can’t stand to Olsen twins. They are annoying and only grow more so. Full House, okay, Two of a Kind, I could deal with. Anything else, no way in bloody hell.

Robbie Benson and Keanu Reeves. They’re perfectly fine actors, I just lose interest in any project with their names on it.

Actually, I’d say that’s pretty good justification for disliking someone. (Note that I said “dislike.” I’d rather not talk about hating him, as that would be unnecessary.)

I hate her too. I was at Caesar’s Palace a couple of years ago and almost had seizures seeing an entire store dedicated to her.

I agree with Julia Roberts, and I also can’t stand Meg Ryan.

Yeah, I can’t stand not coming home to Meg Ryan every evening. 😉

Anyway… Chuck Norris has always irritated me immensly… and the digs that Conan O’brien does on “Walker, Texas Ranger” always puts me in stitches.

Yeah – I don’t like him either. His nose looks like a penis and that’s just _wrong_.

And I totally second the hideous Meg Ryan. She’s got this look-at-me-aren’t-I-just-the-cutest-thing thing. I just want to smack the bejeezus out of her.

And Ben Affleck. _Hate_ Ben Affleck. Never met him, and never really heard anything too terrible about him, and yet I just loathe him.

Pete Sampras and Matthew McConnaughy (very badly misspelled).

For no reason whatsoever. In all likelihood they’re both decent, pleasant fellows, but there’s just something there that rubs me the wrong way.

Sampras especially. That twit.

Another vote for Julia Roberts and Ashton Kucher. I will never understand why Julia Roberts continues to make movies. It’s such crap and she’s overrated. If I get stuck in a room with That 70’s Show on the TV (usually after I have forgotten to turn FOX after The Simpsons) it makes me want to commit suicide. Any method will do; that guy’s whole mannerism is freakin’ annoying.

Almost any pop “musician” in heavy rotation. The music industry just gives me the willies. Ok, popular culture gives me the willies.

Ok, so I’m a misanthropist. It ALL gives me the willies.

I’ve never liked Andie McDowell. I’ve always had the sense that she really is like the repressed character she played in _sex, lies, and videotape._ And I don’t think she’s a very good actress.

Robert Mitchum. When I saw him play Pug Henry (a very sympathetic character) in _Winds of War,_ my immediate gut reaction was, “I sure wouldn’t want to know him!” Admittedly, I was reacting to Henry, not Mitchum. But I’ve never seen Mitchum play a man I didn’t hate.

Renee Zellweger is just so…so…ARGH. I thought she was pretty cute in _Jerry Maguire_ and the first _Bridget Jones_ – when she kept her mouth shut. And didn’t try to do any heavy-lifting acting. After she dropped down to Lemon-Sucking-Face Twig Girl, and persisted in not only talking but singing, I will have no more of her. BEGONE, ZELLWEGER! OR AT LEAST EAT A SANDWICH!

Yeah, then there was also Ali McGraw playing a character less than half her age. And don’t forget Sharon Stone has Warren Henry’s wife.

Jennifer Garner

Kiera Knightly

Will Farrell

I don’t have a hatred of them or anything, but I do have violent reactions to Beastie Boys music.

You don’t swoon over Keith Urban? Wow! I mean, I do, and I’m straight.

I most likely shouldn’t have said that out loud.

Herman Wouk had some words on that casting as well. (Personally I thought the role _screamed_ Jack Lemmon.)

She’s made my list, too, but for something less rational. It was her Pantene commercial when she said, “NOT!” This was within the last couple of years, not 1991. Now, I can’t even stand to look at her.

I’m with those of you who hate **Sheryl Crow**. I don’t have any reason for hating her at all. But I do. Very much. How’s that for irrational?

The rest of my list:

**Michael Bolton** (did you read the “stupid questions” in Entertainment Weekly? Og, it made me hate him even more)

**Ryan Seacrest/Carson Daly** (because there’s no difference - they’re both famous for humping celebrity legs)

**Celene Dion** (for seeming to think she’s the greatest singer of all time…and she’s ugly)

**Paige Davis** (Too perky and annoying. I’m convinced she’s a fembot.)

**Rachel Ray** (she’s number 1 on this list - I hate her deep laugh so f\*\*ing much and, while not _quite_ as perky as Paige Davis, I hate that she laughs that horrific laugh 90 times per 1/2 episode. I hate that she makes food I would actually eat, thus making me watch her silly, annoying ass! She can take her “EVOO, extra virgin olive oil”, shove it directly up her and and squeeze!)

Although the other obvious orifice would be funnier, I would rather she give herself an enema. It’s more unpleasant.
