The thing with Musk is that he is the kind of person who is willing to get things done because he doesn't really give any fucks who he pisses off (see his recent spats with the FAA about SpaceX test launches). But that also makes him come across as a complete arse.

Don't shoot me!
Harry Potter sorry never watched a film nor read a book. But my God how much did it turn into a cult? Never interested in it but hey others are so enjoy but I'll pass ta.
It's the same with me and Game of Thrones, never seen it, don't get the appeal.

Same as me with Lord of the Rings.
Managed to get a quarter of the way through (a couple of times) mainly skipping over all the flipping Walking Songs but still retired, defeated.

I didn't watch that either.

I Loved the Harry Potter movies, got them all on DVD but there is no serious obsession like many people seem to have.

Tom and Giovanna Fletcher - Used to love them but they are SO desperate to stay relevant, must be loaded beyond belief and still wait to be gifted trips to Disney World and then can't seem to fathom how to write the word #ad on anything they post about it. Infuriates me.

Ant & Dec

Phillip and Holly

Lorraine Kelly - Has her own show yet seems like she's hardly ever there

Really used to hate Fiona on GMTV

I HATE the character David Walliams plays on Britain's Got Talent. It's all an act. He actually comes across very well on other shows I've seen him on.

Amanda Holden

Kate Lawler

Matt Lucas

Beyonce - Saw her at V Fest and she spent more time changing outfits than actually singing. Has a good voice but that's about it.

AJ & Curtis Pritchard

Wayne Linekar - My friend is obsessed with him. He makes me feel sick.

Jesy Nelson - Needs therapy not social media

Marvin and Rochelle - Boring boring boring

Mrs Hinch - Honestly I have to stop myself falling out with people that like her or I would have no friends left

Stacey Soloman - Annoying & try hard

Lewis Hamilton - Talented but a try hard

James Corden - His voice is like nails down a chalkboard, doesn't suit voice acting at all, it's very jarring.

Beyonce - average songs/music

Adele - boring and overrated music

I'm glad so many people agree about Beyonce, calling her Queen Bey is just so cringe

My little one is obsessed with The Emoji Movie and James Cordon voices a character. Actually grit my teeth when I hear his voice.

Rihanna- dislike her singing voice, don’t think she’s a particularly good performer. Got gifted her Fenty makeup stuff and wasn’t impressed. I just don’t get it.

I do hope you find a good replacement obsession for your little one, for the sake of your marbles,

I agree about Corrie. Off topic but Jo Joyner is nice and friendly the times. I have came across her she was chatty and a colleague worked with her on Shakespeare and Hathaway. She told me that Jo brings home made cakes for the crew on the last day of filming Shakespeare and Hathaway.

Doesn’t really surprise me about Holly there’s been a few people on the celebrity gossip threads that mention she’s a massive coke head. I guessed that’s how she lost weight and keeps it off

Oprah.

Esp as "interviewer".

Having read the reddit Madonna thread I linked above I watched their interview from back in 1996 and then Oprah's "big" Titanic interview and I am just baffled how this woman got all these interviews and why she's considered "good".

She's shyte as hell. Constantly interrupts her interviewees and inserts some shyte that has no relevance.

As examples, James Cameron started to explain elaborately how they set up the set and shot the sinking of the ship (and historical accuracy), incredibly fascinating and just bloody WOW, and fekkin Oprah interrupts him with some shyte and he's like "yeah right, what I meant to say is" and she interrupts him AGAIN, laughs, slaps her knee cuz she so funny (not) and is then like "alright, let's move on" and I'm like "bint WTF he didn't finish and I wanted to hear this you as*hat!!" It really enraged me.

On a more benign level with Madonna, literally this was a bit of the interview:
M "I felt the baby kick for the 1st time on mother's day, it was like my first mother's day surprise"
O "So, it was like a gift!?"
M "Yes, my first mother's day surprise (or tbh some other word which also means "gift")
O (fekkin again!!) "So, it was like a gift!?"
Me

Who elevated this woman to these heights and WHY?
Gawd she's a SHIT interviewer it's unbelievable.

She was also shit with Meg & Harry, lead them onto the narrative she wanted, interrupted and filled in. She does this with all interviews and it's infuriating to listen to.
Or with Michael Jackson at the height of his court case, coveted interview, she got it and she didn't ask shit. Did a house tour asked benign questions and was like "bye" and that was IT. wtf.

The hallmark of a SHIT INTERVIEWER and I can't say shit interviewer enough, I'm sorry, but WOW, what a SHIT INTERVIEWER who pays her for these crap interviews???
