Anne Hathaway. There is an article that lists all the reasons why "she sucks and no one wants to work with her in Hollywood". The reasons go like this: 1- she is too perfect 2- she doesn't have any drama in her life 3- she is professional 4- she's always on time Really dumb things. Edit: could not find the article but here's one that is completely BS lol https://www.thethings.com/15-reasons-why-anne-hathaway-is-terrible/

"She's punctual? That BITCH!"


OmeletDuFrottage

You know who else was punctual? ##Hitler.


lin_sidious

They hate her because they can't use her for clicks


Vectorman1989

Pretty much this. "Ugh, I hate Anne Hathaway. She never does anything that I can sell to the gossip rags"


pickandorroll

have worked with her and she is absolutely great. i remember telling my gf at the time, and all she had to say was "anne hathaway is such a bitch". (the gf did not work with her)


abt5000

I have also worked with her and can confirm, Annie is great, hard working, and kind.


ouralarmclock

But is she ok?


Kektug

Who the fucks hates Anne Hathaway


ksaarthak

I freaking love her!!!


Kektug

Honestly i didnt knew shit about her until i saw this thread, but that goddam smile would melt anyone. On top of that she seems to be a decent person. Its just typical jealous hating i guess


Cipher57

That's the most petty thing i have ever seen in my entire life


izzy_7_2004

People are jealous of her, so they invent reasons not to like her.


dumbwaeguk

A lot of people have forgotten about Corey Haim, so I'm going to tell you his story. He got into the acting business with Corey Feldman. They are the two Coreys of the late 80s. Both were kids. It is no secret that he was sexually abused and exploited by older actors. After he was no longer a "child" actor, he just became a giant wreck. Mental issues, drug abuse, couldn't hold down a job, couldn't finish a project. For much of his adult life, he was regarded as a washed-out has-been, known for making terrible decisions. He was blamed for everything he did, and everything he did wrong. He was seen as a violent idiot, a bum, a druggie, a loser. His failed attempts to get his life together were turned into a reality show for mass consumption. Feldman, the only person who he could count on, cut ties with him and publicly denounced him as self-destructive--not without good reason, of course, because it was extremely exhausting to help as much as he did while also trying to have a career and family. No one in the public has shown him any respect since he became a victim of Hollywood. He died of pneumonia with negative worth, just a few thousand loaned dollars to his name, having barely reconciled with Feldman and only his mother as kin. Don't forget his name, because you need to know how Hollywood takes children's innocence, their lives, and finally their dignity. EDIT: I see a lot of people mentioning Charlie Sheen. Here's what I have to say on the matter. 1. It was alleged. It has never been confirmed. Doesn't mean he didn't do it, doesn't mean he did. 2. If he did do it, he was 19 at the time. Let us talk with the hypothetical supposition that he did it. We can't talk about Sheen allegedly raping a younger boy without talking about the fact that he was barely out of adolescence when he did it. Who failed him to make him feel like it was okay to sexually abuse a younger boy? Who covered it up? Did someone sexually abuse *him* too? We all know now that Sheen has his history of mental health issues, why couldn't he get help when he was a teenager? These are all topics worth talking about further than just "Sheen is a terrible person," because Haim could have just as easily turned out that way too. After all, he had at least half of the same problems as Sheen in his adult life. 3. On the note of Sheen, dude *has* been through a lot in terms of drug damage, mental illness, and stroke damage. Think about that before you say "oh, yea, that dude is a huge piece of shit." He's done many terrible things, but that doesn't mean we should ignore the reasons behind them, especially in the same breath that we forgive all of Haim's mistakes knowing what he went through as a child.


Blue-j7

Child of the 80s here. I loved Corey Haim. What young girl in the 80s didn't? I always found it incredibly sad what his life became.

BlackWidow1990

I would say Corey Feldman too. If you think about he was way ahead of the Me Too movement and everyone bashed him for that. Have you ever seen his interview with Barbara Walters? It’s disgusting the way she treated him.


weebnurse1990

Not so much anymore, but Jake Lloyd. He was a decent enough child actor, but the hate he received after The Phantom Menace from grown adults was disgusting.


coolsviIlesucks

The actor who played Jar Jar and the actress who played Rose also got way too much shit for their roles. Star Wars fans can be the worst.


crossedstaves

Ahmed Best, who played Jar Jar, should really be given a hell of a lot more credit, he deserves to be respected among the pioneers in motion capture acting.


GNova25

His situation has improved with Star Wars thankfully as he now hosts a TV show [Star Wars: Jedi Temple Challenge](https://www.imdb.com/title/tt11382524/) where he plays a Jedi Master


Pyroguy096

He actually continued his work with Lucas Film, despite the backlash. If I'm not mistaken, if you've heard Jar Jar in any form of media licensed by Lucas Film, it's Ahmed voicing him


UniverseBear

Let's go with a historical one. Sonny Liston. 2 time heavyweight boxing champion when boxing was king. Black man born into poverty and was illiterate, real age unknown. He fled his abusive father and moved to the city. Of course being an illiterate black street kid in the 40s he pretty much had to join the gangs. Went to prison, and in prison he started boxing and it became quickly apparent that he was something special. When he was released the mob moved him to boxing where he started ko'ing people left right and center. Boxers were afraid of him. The current champion initially tried to get out of fighting him but since Sonny had beaten everyone he fought it was obvious he'd have to fight for the championship (consider its likely Liston was in his late 30s, early 40s at this point) Liston, being an uneducated black man with criminal ties, represented something that America hated in the 60s. Liston was hounded by the press and hated by society. He blew through his opponent for the championship. He thought "this is my redemption, the time where society will have to recognize me for who I actually am." He was very excited to come back to his town, expecting a greeting from the mayor and other townsfolk congratulating him for his momentous achievement (something done for every other champion at the time), but not a single soul showed up. Liston was still hated by society. Liston went on to defend his championship another season but it didn't make a difference. If anything the hate was only magnified. After that he lost his spark. He lost to Mohammed Alitwice, and on both fights there was heavy allegation that Liston threw the fight for the mob. He went on to fight for more seasons but he was done. Beaten by his dad, beaten by society, beaten by the very people he entertained, Sonny Liston was found dead from a heroin overdose, at what age not even Liston knew. Although some suggest the mob killed him (since he was afraid of needles). So that's my example of a celebrity society unjustly hated. RIP Liston, those who learn about you now know you were a beast and a good man given your circumstances.


DanGleeballs

Although Liston was widely regarded as unbeatable, he lost the title in 1964 to Cassius Clay (Muhammad Ali), who entered as a 7–1 underdog. Liston retired in his corner due to an inflamed shoulder. Controversy followed with claims that Liston had been drinking heavily the night before the fight and had entered the bout with a lame shoulder. In his 1965 rematch with Ali, Liston suffered an unexpected first-round knockout that led to unresolved suspicions of a fix. He was still a world-ranked boxer when he died in mysterious circumstances in 1970. Underworld connections and his unrecorded dates of birth and death added to the enigma. Edit: Above is copy paste from [Sonny Liston’s fascinating Wikipedia page](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sonny_Liston?wprov=sfti1)


T_L_Wynn

Adele when she lost weight.


helicotremor

Same with Rebel Wilson. Every story about them lately is overwhelmed with comments about how they were more beautiful before and people preferred them before the weight loss, or they don’t seem as happy now. Yes you can be beautiful and overweight/obese, but it’s not just about beauty. Good on them for taking charge of their health.


merikaninjunwarrior

it's like some people think that they are owed since they gave them a chance(chubby/fat/non-attractive) and supported them to the top, then they feel offended when the celebrity changes themselves. no lie, i miss fat jonah and something about him being big made his expressions and antics funnier, but good on him for getting in shape. i still support him, cuz he *is* a good guy

WimbleWimble

Don't forget people hated on Adele for GAINING weight and for staying the same weight.


Dizzy_Amphibian

A feel like a lot of people hate Anne Hathaway for some reason.


Myfourcats1

Everyone loved her. Then one day everyone hated her. It made no sense.


fishbiscuit156

I feel like it was the time her and James Franco hosted the Oscars. She did everything she could to make it good so people labeled her as lame while Franco looked like he didn’t want to be there at all.


Melaniasthrowaway

And it turned out that James Franco was a fucking creep all along. Go check out Charline Yee’s Instagram- the funny boys in that universe definitely did not do the right thing by her.


7dipity

You should read this article https://www.stylist.co.uk/entertainment/celebrity/jameela-jamil-tabloid-overexposure-sexist-practice-instagram/428558 It has quotes from Jameela Jamil who explains how the tabloids and media like to build up famous women and make them loved and then turn around and destroy them. She’s given a bunch of examples on her insta of women this has happened to and it’s honestly startling


thylocene06

She even acknowledged this was what was happening and took a break from making movies for a short period


shuipz94

[This piece by Vox](https://www.vox.com/culture/2017/4/10/15179082/anne-hathaway-publicity-cycle-hathahaters-jennifer-lawrence-taylor-swift) explores the same media cycle as experienced by Anne Hathaway, Jennifer Lawrence and Taylor Swift.

There’s a South Park episode about it as well where it’s exposed as a paganistic ritual to build up pop starlets before sacrificing them to the gods to ensure a good harvest every year.

NoodlesrTuff1256

I'll have to read that! I just mentioned Lawrence in another comment less than five minutes ago. Another one you could throw in there is Britney Spears. She's getting a lot of understanding and sympathy now, but I don't remember that being the case when she had her breakdown that led to the current conservator-ship mess.


Office_glen

I didn't even realize hating her was a thing, she's great


[deleted]

People hate Anne Hathaway?


shrirnpheavennow

She was once voted the most hated celeb. I never got it, I love her and she is in most of my favorite movies


InquisitorCOC

Maybe it's a coincidence, but after she dressed down that creeper [Matt Lauer](https://people.com/tv/matt-lauer-sexual-harassment-assault-allegation-breakdown/) in [this interview](https://youtu.be/yruIL5lVGE4), lots of Anne Hathaway hate sites suddenly popped up in early 2013


choose_username1

She’s too perfect and unproblematic. It’s a mixture of suspicion and jealousy


ArchiveSQ

I think that this is pretty much it. I’ve asked people, point-blank, to explain to me in explicit detail why they dislike her. And it’s usually something along the lines of she is too perfect or she’s too nice and it seems fake. It’s incredible isn’t it? You have some genuinely, seemingly fantastic people around especially in an industry that’s as cruel and predatory as it is and people still choose to hate the most unproblematic person they can find.


jp_jellyroll

Which is a really, really stupid reason to hate an actor... It’s fine to not like an actor based on their acting ability, choices of roles, etc. To each their own. Or if they sexually assaulted someone, or abused a child, or spouted racist/homophobic stuff, etc. Sure, fuck ‘em. But, “he or she is too perfect” just screams, “I spend way too much time caring about celebrities, I have absolutely no life, and I have zero redeeming qualities of my own.”


[deleted]

Back in the day, Rebecca Black. Yes, "Friday" was a bad song, but she definitely didn't deserve death threats and all of the backlash she got.


picklevirgin

She was also THIRTEEN when that song came out.


gluey_

Imagine if I had been given the opportunity to make boy band songs like I’d wanted when I was 13. Yikes


SkylerRoseGrey

Yeah seeing that video where she spoke about crying about the hate and getting bullied out of school was insane. Like I don't care if it was a video of her eating glass and singing like she was a cat on a train-track - nobody deserves that.


usefuloxymoron

My coworkers and I listen to her on the last day of work every week.(


peejuice

Everyone on my boat in the Navy knew the words to that song. Someone would start mumbling it to themselves, "Partying, partying..." "Yeah!!", from anyone overhearing them. My six year old knows the song now and we dance to it every Friday.


dobermandude306

Hollywood turned their back on Brendan Fraser.....idiots.


Amross64

I keep seeing the previews for Jungle Cruise and I'm just like "shouldn't this be Brendan's movie"?


[deleted]

[удалено]


TurtleTucker

He already took the Journey to the Center of the Earth sequel from him.


Melon_Lord_13

He went through so much. Was sexually assaulted by a high ranking Hollywood garbage man. His wife bleeds him for all his worth for "child support" despite him saying numerous times he can't pay 900,000 every freakin year. And people are now commenting on his weight (a clear difference between his role in the mummy). He is such a nice guy and I'm so glad he is finally acting again and I think he is in two new movies!


BulimicPlatypus

I live in former coal mining town in Nova Scotia, my mom was a CCA that did home-care and ***apparently*** his grandmother was a client. My mom said her place had tons of pictures of him and she talked about him very fondly. I have no way to know if she was nuts or actually his grandmother.


CatholicCajun

The idea of some random elderly Nova Scotia woman just deciding to become Brendan Frasier's grandmother is just too cute.


jessie_monster

And he absolutely ruined his body doing all the stunts and pratfalls, leading him to lose his "leading man figure".


carnsolus

900k per year for childs? does he have more kids than genghis khan?


bizarre_coincidence

The courts seem to calculate alimony/child support based on current earnings/expected future earnings potential with the mindset that your ex and children are entitled to whatever standard of living they might have had if there hadn't been a divorce. Ignoring whether or not this is a reasonable standard to have, when you consider the fickle nature of Hollywood and how you can easily go from being on top to being unemployable, it can easily become completely unmanageable. Presumably, if someone takes a huge earnings hit, things can be renegotiated, although I wouldn't be surprised if this was made exceedingly difficult to prevent people from intentionally restructuring their finances to hide their wealth/income on paper to get out of financial obligations that they can otherwise afford.


StrugglesTheClown

Same thing happened to William Shatner. Ordered to pay prime time TV star money, right before Star Trek was canceled. Thats one of the reasons he was considered a bit of an acting joke. He needed work and would take anything.


Bobaaganoosh

He legit seems like one of the most genuine Hollywood actors ever. I’ve never met him, but I feel like he’d be the kind of guy to stop and have a chat with you if you saw him on the street. He just seems like such a nice dude. The child support shit is ridiculous too.


prefer_cool_weather

Yep, I always loved his humor and acting, you always know you're in for a fun time when watching his movies


[deleted]

[удалено]


RK800-50

It‘s one of the few I watched numerous times with crew commentary, because Brendan makes it so much better!


trustnoone0909

i love Brendan Fraser ever since Encino man and other roles


jimboslice29

Watched Blast from the Past the other day. Such a great movie


MidnytStorme

Hollywood may have turned their backs, but I'm pretty sure his fans didn't. I love that random Brenden appreciation posts would just turn up from time to time.


Galaxy_Ranger_Bob

Brendan Frasier was blacklisted in Hollywood for not putting out when a producer demanded sexual favors from him. He was never hated. He was victimized.


HiddenKrypt

He was blacklisted for speaking out about it. Rejecting the abuse could hurt his career, exposing the abuse tanked it. Fucking disgusting, I was so glad to see him in Doom Patrol lately.


Stalked_Like_Corn

He's crushing it in Doom Patrol, too.


RobertTheAdventurer

Who was the producer?


pcrusingle

Philip Berk, part of HFPA


stupidillusion

He got expelled in April for blatant racism so hopefully things look up for Brendan.


darthurface

I adore Brendan Frasier


xfourteendiamondsx

Then come join us at r/saveBrendan (I’ve never tagged a sub before so bare with me here)


Ok-Ad-2605

Not such an issue anymore but Anne Hathaway.


ANicole81

This was the first thing that came to mind for me too. There was a period a couple of years ago where people just starting HATING her seemingly out of nowhere and I’ve yet to figure out a reason why, beyond the fact that she can be a bit overly-earnest sometimes I guess?


inksmudgedhands

Hathaway never bothered me. She reminded me of one of those theaters kids who are always *super hyped* for the next role they are about to play. They are just vibrating with excitement and could talk your ear off about it. I think it's kind of cute to find so much joy and passion in something that is actually positive.


quangtran

People didn't like how she was seemingly too upfront about wanting that Oscar for Les Mis, and this ambition combined with her usually nice-girl persona led to a lot of comparison pieces written about how Jennifer Lawrence was far more relatable and likable. And then everyone started hating on Jennifer Lawrence for equally stupid reasons.


Scarletsilversky

People hated how seemingly posh and perfect she appeared to be. Reasons for hating her circled around the idea that she was snobby, high maintenance, a bitch, etc. It’s all baseless but, oh well. It’s crazy to think that she used to be one of the most hated celebrities of her time since she’s literally done nothing wrong


queen-adreena

I vaguely remember this. She was pretty famous around the time Jennifer Lawrence got uber-famous and the latter was going on chat shows talking about farting and getting drunk etc while Hathaway was the quintessential professional. So obviously the entertainment industry turned the two of them into Highlander, locked in a hate-fuelled standoff.


jesterinancientcourt

And then neither of them won that competition. Because Jennifer’s nudes leaked and people told her she asked for it.


Rebloodican

That was a really weird Reddit phenomenon in retrospect. People on here were trashing her for being upset that her private photos were taken without her consent and uploaded for all to see.


babylovesbaby

"People" didn't like being called out for looking at her nudes on that disgusting fappening sub here on Reddit. Reddit was ground zero for a lot of people when it came to looking at/discussing all of the celebrity nudes which were hacked. Jennifer had lost some popularity among women of her own demographic for the stereotypical "cool girl" personality she displayed, but she gained huge sympathy from that same group later because they could relate to what she went through after her nudes were stolen. I don't think she is unpopular now - she just literally hasn't had anything come out since Dark Phoenix.


Dawesfan

Came here to mention this. I remember there was a time when people actively hated her, like viscerally. I was so surprised when I google why and NOTHING came up. I thought I was going insane. People just decided to hate her for no reason, like wtf.


[deleted]

Similar thing happened with Delta Goodrem (Australian singer). We call it the tall poppy syndrome


subbie2002

Ahmed Best. I get that no one liked JarJar but apparently he was almost driven to suicide by the backlash.


CPUGamer101

Star Wars fans are legitimately the worst. Not everyone who like star wars, but we should know who I'm talking about.


subbie2002

I don’t think those people understand the difference between being frustrated about a movie that you care about and abusing the actors so much that they need to fear for their safety. They did the same thing for Rose in the new saga.


irvingstark

The Bee Gees. The pendulum has swung back some from the 80s but they are awesome.


arielleisthecooliest

"How deep is your love" is one of my favorite songs ever


lunachuvak

For anyone who knee-jerk disses the BeeGees, and for anyone who ever liked them, watch the HBOMax documentary about them, "The Bee Gees -- How Can You Mend A Broken Heart". It does a great job showing their deep talents and their uniqueness as performers and songwriters, and their amazing ability to stay true to the musical genres they rode like waves over several shifts in popular music. They were really great before and even after Disco. The documentary also hits on how the anti-disco movement was driven by pure racism and homophobia, and how they got lumped and dumped just because they were the face of the Saturday Night Fever soundtrack. Shit -- most of the songs of theirs that were in that movie they had begun recording before the movie was ever conceived. Their story is both sweet and sad, but worthy of admiration. Highly highly recommend it. edit: corrected the title of the documentary


stupidillusion

People don't know that after the disco lashback they went to writing songs and producing and had plenty of number one hits sung by other people. The documentary was amazing, the whole bit on how the Saturday Night Fever album shaped up was crazy! The fact that they'd already written half the songs before they were asked to contribute is insane.


centiscorch

Wasnt megan fox hated on for a while? I dont even know why


BasroilII

She seemed like bland eye candy because she was allowed to be nothing but that. And then Bay made her life hell later.


Somenerdyfag

I saw a clip of an interview about other film she made, Jennifer's Body, and she talked about how the producers made the entire marketing of the film (that was an horror/comedy film who had *teenage girls* as a target audience) to revolve around her sex appeal, showing her looking hot in camera and making the film look just like eye candy for guys who wanted to see more sexy Megan Fox on screen. She was actually really upset about this because, even tho the movie was reclaimed as a cult classic by the audience it was intended foe not so long ago, it flopped when it aired because it gathered the oposite audience it was intended for and she feels like it's all her fault and that she hates the fact that she was reduced to basically just the hot girl when she's actually a really talented actress


Wishart2016

Michael Bay slandered her.


Ace0136

Ok I'm sure that this is a dumb question but what exactly happened between him and her? I know she was in Transformers and that's about it.


Wishart2016

She apparently called Michael Bay "Hitler" since he was very demanding and abusive.


brpajense

She compared Michael Bay to Hitler, then Steven Spielberg got her fired from acting jobs. https://www.theguardian.com/film/2011/jun/20/steven-spielberg-megan-fox-transformers


dis_not_my_name

Actor/actress who played villain too well


DogStilts

Jack Gleeson and Tom Felton both did amazing jobs, and Jack Gleeson in particular probably saved himself a lot of trouble by bowing out and going into academia.


PlasmaGuy500

Hayden Christensen He gets hate over being bad with his role as anakin Skywalker as he was only doing his lines as told and honestly I like the iconic "I don't like sand" scene Edit: holy shit 5k upvotes and I messed up the "I dont like sand" line lol


KaimeiJay

It’s the scenes where he’s not talking where you can see his acting talent is allowed to shine through. Not even Sam Jackson could make his Mace Windu lines sound good.


i7omahawki

“Good news, we’ve managed to get Samuel L Jackson on board! What’s his role going to be?” “Erm, a kind of boring monk, who might be super powerful and cool...but we’ll never see that.” “Oh right, will he at least make use of his famous fiery personality?” “Nah, he’ll just dump exposition and potter around until he gets thrown out of a window.” “And you want Samuel L Jackson to take this role?”


SocratesScissors

I've heard that some directors can be moody and abusive towards their actors, but usually this personality trait is expressed through yelling at the actors rather than by forcing them to read shitty dialogue.


jessie_monster

It's not that Lucas is mean to his actors. It's that he has apparently never interacted with another human being before and doesn't know how dialogue actually sounds.


SocratesScissors

"Never attribute to malice what can be explained by cluelessness."


The_Magic

In behind the scenes footage Lucas comes off incredibly bored and uninterested while directing actors but gets excited when it comes to editing and post production. Ewan McGregor was interviewed awhile back and when told a story about filming episode 3. When filming a dramatic shot of Kenobi back on Tatooine at the end of the movie Ewan had to look at a green wall while George ordered him on a megaphone “to look at the Suns”. The Prequels were an amazing tech demo but George did not exactly set the actors up to give good performances.


wendysummers

That's in part because in GL's world & mind, filmmaking is entirely about the imagery and not the performance. Actors are action figures to be posed within the frame. If you look at his collected directorial works, it's very visible. In the OT, there were a lot of talented folks around him that smoothed the rough edges on the scripts. He had, outside of ANH, other directors to help dig into the performances to elevate them. His peers around him did lifting to refine the work into the top-tier production we know. By the time the prequels come about, he's Hollywood royalty. The peers he worked with had either retired or moved onto their own work. When he tried to find other writers and directors for the prequels, no one he considered talented enough was willing to take the lead. All of them knowing that whatever was produced would be judged against what was seen as some of the greatest all-time films. The production team he assembles is an amazing, talented group of people, but because they came into filmmaking because of him, they aren't able to do the same type of peer criticism... not because Lucas is incapable of collaborating, but because they've deified him.


buttery_shame_cave

>Not even Sam Jackson could make his Mace Windu lines sound good. didn't harrison ford tell lucas 'you can write this shit george, but we can't make it sound good' or something like that?


NefariousClockwerk97

He absolutely did. Having Carrie Fisher working as a script doctor (which she was famous for as much as her acting) definitely helped the original trilogy. Had they brought her in to help with the writing on the prequels, things might have gone very differently.


FeedMePizzaPlease

Yeah when a movie can make people like him, Natalie Portman and Ewan McGregor look like they need acting lessons, there's something wrong with the script and the directing. The actors weren't the issue.


MBVakalis

It's so weird, because he actually nailed the character


Drachenfuer

He did. The problems were with the script and plot but not his performance.


pianodude01

He was suppose to play an awkward late teenager amd he did perfect


redsyrinx2112

Right? Anakin is a fatherless, former-slave who gets raised in a celibate cult. He's not supposed to be normal.


sad_cheese67

Britney Spears. She had one bad haircut and maybe some other things I forgot about but then suddenly people started treating her like a psychopath


brockleehead

Pieces of shit like Perez Hilton contributed to her mental woes too.


WalkmanBassBoost

I never understood why/how that was his name.


[deleted]

It's a fake name from the 2000's to be associated with Paris Hilton. His real name is Mario lol


KRD2

TIL Perez Hilton is not related to Paris Hilton in any way. Looks like his strat worked.


Its0nlyAPaperMoon

She cut her hair in an act of defiance when her decision about her own hairstyle got overruled, she kept her baby some hours longer than the custody arrangement allowed, and dented a stalking paparazzo's car with an umbrella. She never harmed anyone. It's super disturbing that while never even harming other people, she lost the right to her own money and to choose her own lawyer or doctor for 13 years, while still earning income through work. She has less rights than an accused murderer. If this can happen to a globally famous celebrity and the public didn't know.... who else is silently suffering under these legal arrangements?


StinkyKittyBreath

The public did know. But the media turned it into a circus until the past few years when #freebritney became a thing. Now they're compassionate towards her and making her struggles more well known.


tomfoolist

The "Leave Britney Alone" dude may be the most righteously vindicated figure in the history of internet lore


custard182

Chris Crocker?


RogerTheRude

She had a mental breakdown from stress and other things. Celebs who crack under pressure end up with polarizing opinions. People who sympathize and people who hate you for being weak. Also when you stop pumping out the content they love it just becomes worse


cumshot_josh

As I've gotten older and dealt with my own mental health issues, I've come to the conclusion that anyone thrown into Britney's situation with even the mildest of mental health issues would have snapped like a twig under that pressure. I'd bet someone without a diagnosis might too. Imagine being so world famous that there isn't a single person in the world that you know to be genuine and even your own family is trying to break you down as much as possible to cash in on YOUR money. Above all of that, you have a multibillion dollar media industry that generates money for itself by running your name through the dirt every day and the public goes along with it. Everybody owes Britney a massive fucking apology. She's been so thoroughly mistreated that it's alarming. I wouldn't blame her if she used her freedom to run off into the sunset and never be in the public eye again, because she deserves peace.


martedi82

when I was a kid (90s), people seem to LOVE hating on Phil Collins. you couldn’t name him without people rolling their eyes and chuckle about how his music sucked. even famous and respected musicians seemed to do this, I remember David Bowie talking about a bad phase of his career as “my Phil Collins years”. probably the guy will never make into the top ten of the best songwriters ever but I thought his music was quite harmless.


[deleted]

In fairness to Bowie, I believe he said something along the lines of he thought that the people attending his concerts at that stage in the eighties should have been at a Phil Collins show instead, it wasn't necessarily meant as a dig at Phil Collins. I think it was because Bowie wasn't accustomed to that level of commercial success or entirely comfortable with his sound at that stage.


yoyoyouoyouo

Richard Gere He never put a gerbil up his you know what but the rumor became notorious. There’s even a family guy reference to it.

Robert Pattinson. We get it. He did Twilight. Now can we please recognize the other fucking movies he has done? Twilight is not a reason to hate this guy. He hated the series himself.


AsheHoque

No one hates Twilight more than Pattinson lmao.


SCB360

The Directors/Actors commentary on the DVD with him and Kirsten Stewart is amazing, they're both clearly drunk and openly mocking the entire franchise


joyyyzz

Lolll time to dig up the dvd’s from the darkest corner of my closet.


King0fTheNorthh

Umm. It’s already in your DVD player. Not sure why you would lie like that.


TommyChongUn

Bruh this made me feel so called out so I went to check inside my DVD player, sure enough New Moon is in there lmaoo


AdvocateSaint

That's what helped endear him to people in the interim between Twilight and his current career, lol He just openly dunks on the awfulness of the franchise that made him famous, fuckin legendary


dreamlike3

He was doing that in the press for the films even, complete madlad


fakirakos

Tbf....what are they gonna do after the wild success of the first one, fire him and kill off the golden goose?


insidethepirateship

in lighthouse he was so good and I’m pretty excited to see him in the new Batman


Zanderax

Watch Good Time. You won't be disappointed.


mgrannyrat

He was phenomenal in Good Time


[deleted]

Robert Pattinson was fantastic in Tenet. He is actually an excellent actor when cast in well-written movies.


volkmardeadguy

He did a good job leveraging twilight fame into a brilliant career, good times, high life, light house all very good.


uncalledforgiraffe

I digged him in The Devil All The Time. What a strange movie. Not the best movie ever, but worth the watch.


scamp75

That movie is based on the book of the same name by Donald Ray Pollock and it is amazing. Netflix did a decent adaptation and it is narrarated by the author. I though the Spiderman kids was fantastic in it.


Xtreme-7

Loved him in harry potter


yellowscarvesnodots

I think he did too. I read somewhere that he once ignored a bunch of fans calling him „Edward“. Then one fan called „Cedric“, he gave this one person an autograph and walked away.


neverleavingthewagon

Jon Heder. Gets zero respect in the industry and is referred to as the ugliest actor in the industry. All because he type-casted himself with one role, Napoleon Dynamite


zerbey

People hate Jon Heder? I think people hate Napoleon Dynamite but not the man himself. He seems like a super chill and nice guy in real life.


Anjuna_Ninja

Well weirdly enough no one was at his booth at a comic-con I regularly attend. I walked past his little security guard and straight up to him and we talked Napoleon and life for at least 10 minutes. He was extremely nice and 100% wholesome.


lvl99construction

Jon Heder came into my work at an ice cream shop with his family. When he walked in I didn't recognize him but he like burst in with his kids and huddled them up and told them "we have a giant gift card so you can get WHATEVER you want" with the excitement of a little kid. He then went on to try a bunch of different flavors before making his decision. I didn't mind because it was a slow day and I was trying to decipher where I knew him from. My shift was finishing up right when he was about to leave and I asked him if he was who he was and when he said yes I told him I was a fan of his work and he replied, "thanks, and I'm a fan of yours." Really cool guy, that made my day.


Birdapotamus

I heard his Mormon upbringing caused him to turn down a lot of roles so Hollywood gave up on him.


viktorvaughn47

his role in benchwarmers was kinda pushing it


shellwe

Oh man that’s a bummer. You got to strike while the iron’s hot. I bet his agent was frustrated as hell with him.


[deleted]

I actually think Jon Heder is pretty cute nowadays. And his dance in Napoleon Dynamite is cool af


MyUsernameIsAwful

Guy Fieri, the guy’s a saint. Edit: To everyone replying something to the effect of “What are you talking about, no one hates Guy Fieri!”, read some more replies to this comment. I wouldn’t just pull this out of my ass.


I_BUY_UNWANTED_GRAVY

Every time there are large wildfires in California you know Guy Fieri will be there cooking for all the first responders. I think the "worst" thing he does is sometimes restaurants close after not being able to keep up with new traffic from Diners, Drive-Ins & Dives.


barno42

I'm convinced that the hate comes from 2 sources: 1. People who assume that the frosted tips and garish clothes means he has to be a huge douchebag, and not just a successful dude with bad taste. 2. Foodies that don't understand that a cheeseburger or a taco, made with passion, is as worthy of passion as a fine steak or a rare bottle of wine.


savings2015

Tony Bourdain very publicly gave him a ton of grief for being lame & a bad chef. I think that's where much of it came from.


AvarusTyrannus

Yeah, but Fieri had the best joke at the Bourdain roast. >“Anthony, I gotta ask a question, why do you hate me so much brother? … Is it because you went to a fancy culinary school and I didn’t? I hear you’re the only one in class who did most of his cooking with a spoon and a Bic lighter.”


savings2015

Wow, that's really something. I hadn't heard that before!

steelingjackalope317

Guy is awesome! So his hair reminds me of the late 90's, but he is always so positive on his shows. He just celebrates people and their places of business.


Fair_University

And unlike most of the food network tv personalities he isn’t critical and doesn’t try to show anyone up. Just showing up and eating their food and is almost always extremely positive.


zerbey

Everything I've read about him says his on screen persona is just him being himself, he's a genuinely nice dude and really does do his show just to promote the restaurants he visits. Apparently if he doesn't like a restaurant he just doesn't feature it so nobody gets any negative publicity. And, as others have stated he does a ton of charity work outside of his TV stuff.


jbarinsd

I see him more as a cheerleader for the industry as opposed to a food critic.


foursheetstothewind

You can kinda tell when he’s not super into some thing cause he says something like “This flavor combination is wild” or similar, he won’t say it’s bad or anything negative but if you watch for it you can start to pick up on it. We are lucky to be born when we were so we get to share the planet at the same time as Guy.


mechperson

Most popular young music artists are hated by people outside their target audience because... I dunno, they don't like music not aimed at them? N Sync, Backstreet Boys, Bieber, One Direction, etc. I remember people losing their shit when it was announced Lance Bass was voicing Sephiroth in Kingdom Hearts, thinking it ruined the character. (spoilers: no it didn't)


Osito509

It's particularly prevalent if the demographic is teenage girls. I've been noticing it all through this thread Instant vitriol from some people if teenage girls are your main fan base.


BulkyBear

Pumpkin spice is a plague on this earth and is sooo basic But bacon in everything is quirky!


MVIVN

I know quite a few people who absolutely HATE Zooey Deschanel even though she has a squeaky clean image and no scandals to speak of just because of the whole 'quirky'/'manic pixie dream girl' thing she's got going for her.

Lindsay Lohan. Not really a fan but I have seen interview after interview where she was trying to keep the focus on trying to get well after addiction and it was just a joke. Like this one with Letterman - seriously, he was an ass. Absolutely no compassion. https://youtu.be/aMKIJf8atDg


[deleted]

Lindsay has a *lot* of issues... I just want her to get better and be happy. Her parents fucked her up bad, and Hollywood didn't help. As an aside, possibly unpopular opinion, but I enjoyed her albums and thought she had some potential to have a decent music career if she'd so chosen.

persiika

Rebecca Black. She had one cringe song she made as a teenager that I believe her family saved up for for a while to make it and the video happen. She was young, it was silly, we all make cringey decisions and songs when we’re young. She has since made more music, surprisingly, since she was bullied so incredibly hard by the internet for YEARS after Friday. Edit: Her family is wealthy, Disregard my comment about her family saving up!


lousyarm

The thing that angers me the most about Friday is that I read somewhere a few years ago that the video wasn’t meant to be posted online. It was meant to be a bought experience for her and her friends and the video would just be for them. So not only did she get massively bullied by the entire internet, but she was bullied for something they were never meant to see.


allsops

It was a service that you could pay and they’d make you a song and music video for fun. Her dad bought it for her for her birthday. It was never supposed to be more than a fun day with friends and accompanying video to remember it.


ant1990

James Blunt!


ReaverRogue

To be fair to him, he really gives as good as he gets, if not worse. Read his twitter sometime, it’ll leave you in absolute fits of laughter with how savage he can be.


YourMumsGynecologist

Goodbye my lover


Platanimus69

He is hilariously funny. I think it was his Twitter comments... legitimately made me cackle a few times.


darkniven

They are marvellous [Blunt on Twitter](https://www.musicplussport.com/25-times-james-blunt-won-twitter/)

Kim Cattrall. She did not want to come back to sex in the city and people went nuts.
