He always got on my nerves. A decent rock singer voice, but a horrible songwriter, and an ego way out of proportion with reality. \*\*

I’m on the other side of this one, widdershins. I think Chris Robinson is pretty damn cool and I really like him with the Black Crowes. He’s goofy looking, sure, but I dig him.

The best thing about Mia Farrow is that she never married Woody Allen. Otherwise, she’d belong in this thread. With a vengence.

Not that this has ever stopped anyone, but… I believe Kiefer is a happy family man. I’m going to take this with a big salt lick because I like Kiefer and would have for him to be on this list.

Paul McCartney and whatever his bride’s name is.

Can’t he see he is being duped?

Is he that dense?

Paul, she is using you.

Not to burst any bubbles, but if you do a Google or Yahoo! search on “Jolie Sutherland” you’ll get a mess of hits that allude to the “itemness” I alluded to. Whether “itemness” rises to a level to get people to despise those involved, it’s at least something I passed along to ease **Wolfian’s** pain.

Hey, I’m just a messenger here. I have no horses in this particular race.

Oh! I remember liking Annette Bening a lot until she married Warren Beatty. Since then I’ve mellowed, and I like both Bening and Beatty somewhat, although her career certainly hasn’t lived up to its early potential.

Also, I’ll admit that Silverman is no Eddie Izzard. But she got a lot less funny when I started picturing Kimmel as the boyfriend who made sure her breasts got squeaky clean.

Angelina Jolie is now seeing Nicholas Cage. She was never seeing Keifer Sutherland.

My vote for the OP: Rachel Ticotin (_Total Recall_) was married to David Caruso (Talentless hack). Blech.

Whoops, after Googling like **Zeldar** said, I see that Keifer and Angelina were apparently reported as being an item.

But to prove I’m not crazy:

Well, she never married the no talent ass clown, but when I heard Ashley Judd dated Michael Bolton, I lost respect for her completely. No amount of soap can wash that stain away.

I admit he’s been in some stinkers, but I think the _Spy Kids_ franchise and the Tony nomination make up for it. In fact, my glee knows no bounds that he’s being lauded for his performance on Broadway while Melanie is trying to fill her empty days by having collagen injected into various body parts. Hate. Her.

Just want to chime in.

I hate CarrotTop and if he marries anyone good looking I’ll hate him even more.😃
