I’ve heard the same thing about her. Post-_Glee_ she seems to be stuck in hardass roles but that’s showbiz for you.

I read that as “Terrence Howard. He’s totally irrational.” Which, [if the stories are true](http://metro.co.uk/2015/09/15/empire-star-terrence-howards-math-theory-argues-that-1-x-1-2-seriously-5391577/), is not far off the mark.

Andy Dick creeps most people out. That’s an entirely rational reaction.

I got the same impression of Jane Lynch, but it was based on a couple of commercials she did where the general attitude was “ok, you’re all idiots so shut up and listen while a famous person tells you what to do.”

He seems strange and unbalanced somehow. Can’t really specify what it is about him. He also has a demeanor that indicates to me that he’d screw you over whenever possible. But I know next to nothing about him, so yes it’s irrational.

Oh man, Gwyneth Paltrow. Here’s the source of my irrational hate for her. We have a local Birkenstock shop that, several years ago, found out that there was a particular hard-to-come-by model that she was fond of. They had some in stock and contacted her people to let her know they had some for sale. The reply from her publicist was something along the lines of “Gwyneth doesn’t buy things. People give things to her.” So I tend to think of her as a spoiled self-entitled twat.

For years I couldn’t stand Victoria Principal. First because she stole my beloved Andy Gibb, who I am certain would have eventually come to Memphis and fallen head over heels with my 10 year old self. And then I hated her even more for killing my beloved Andy Gibb, because surely it must have been her fault.

I’ve mostly recovered, but if I see her name I still tense up. 🙂

I don’t get the impression that Paltrow is a bad person, so much as that she doesn’t understand how hue-mon interactions go, and thinks that normal people would be ecstatic to only pay $200 for a designer newborn onesie. And steam cleans things, right? So it only makes sense to use it in your vagina, an organ that has cleaned itself for millennia.

An irrational thing might be Blythe Danner, who is arguably the most attractive 74 year old and seems like a perfectly nice person, but on the other hand she did create Gwyneth so I have to wonder.

Michael Moriarty  
Played an absolutely evil Nazi (yes, aren’t they all) in '78, and I haven’t gotten over it yet.

I’m also in the same camp as far as hating the annoying voices of Fran Drescher, Gilbert Gotfried (although he can be funny) and Bobcat Goldthaite.

Only because Marilyn McCoo and Paula Kelly don’t turn 74 until September and October, respectively…

She’s been a reoccurring guest on Criminal Minds as Reid’s schizophrenic mother. She’s very good in a dramatic role.

There is a lot to be fascinated about. I still can watch more than a few seconds of the show.

I presume that was supposed to say “I still _can’t_ watch…” And, I mean, I hear you… I’m just saying. I’ve watched shows that were _way_ worse than _2 Broke Girls_ solely because they starred women that I did _not_ find as attractive as Kat Dennings.

Check her out as [Gisele Bündchen](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=SSKJkGDT9AU) on _SNL_ (3:45 & 7:25). My money’s on that ‘probably’ turning into a ‘definitely’.

I’m going to say anyone who is famous for being famous, without having any real talents. So the Kardashians, Paris Hilton (I know she’s not a thing anymore but as an example), reality TV “stars”, etc.

I haven’t liked Johnny Depp for a long time, but it isn’t exactly irrational.

He invented an interesting character for PotC. Then for some dumbass reason he got it into his head that every character he played had to be some bizarro “character”, even when that was entirely counterproductive. And stupid assed coked up studio execs not only didn’t tell him to dial it back, they paid him big money to keep doing it.

Now in reading about his spending habits and so forth, it seems the man has completely lost any and all connection with reality.

I kind of wish he could be committed to some kind of character and spending rehab, where they keep him in a home with no access to his money and don’t release him until he’s gone 60 days without breaking into some character or attempting to spend money. Then another 6 months in a half-way house where he’s forced to live a normal life on say, $5,000 per month, cook his own food, do his own laundry and interact with everyday people like well, a normal person.

Supposedly he supplied cocaine to Phil Hartman’s mentally ill wife, who shortly thereafter murdered Hartman and then committed suicide. So hating Andy Dick is totally reasonable.

I hate Bob Baffert for an entirely different reason:

There was a newswoman for the Louisville area named Jill Moss. Normally, I don’t get into the “cute, blonde, cheerleader” type of woman, but I loved Jill Moss.

And Bob married her.

Hating Andy Dick is a given.

I am sure someone mentioned Tom Cruz. I actually avoid any of his films.

Also of course John Travolta. That goes without saying.
