Last Updated: 24.06.2025 02:00
Lucille Ball - the charm ended when the cameras were off. Was rude to anyone not famous like her. On a flight, she ignored a flight attendant, one of her minions stating that Lucille doesn’t talk to the help.
Ben Stiller - entitled a-hole, fired someone because there was only one ice cube in his Diet Coke. Has people stand in his parking space to reserve it.
Kiefer Sutherland - a good number of fellow actors have come out berating his behaviour on-set. Alcoholism probably doesn’t help…

Teri Hatcher -mean to everyone she works with, turns up late often
Shia LaBeouf - beats on his girlfriends. Plagiarized a script.
Harrison Ford - can be a right grumpy bastard if he’s not enthusiastic about the film he’s in, especially round inexperienced actors.

Kirk Douglas - it seems to be an open secret that it was he who brutally raped Natalie Wood, and his name has cropped up as a potential suspect in the murder of a fellow actress before he was famous.
Sandra Bullock - has been known to be outright nasty to fans asking for autographs. Like when a disabled veteran asked for one, she covered her face while insulting him.
Josh Duhamel - cheated on Fergie, rude to strangers, got himself kicked off a plane
Mel Gibson - sexist, racist, abusive prick.
Ellen DeGeneres - a mean bitch behind the smile, once fired an autistic custodian for greeting her, berated a waitress for having a chipped nail, forced people to chew gum because her nose was sensitive or some sh-t like that.
Jennifer Lawrence - mean to fans,, self-entitled spoiled brat.

Cameron Diaz - not only will she refuse to sign autographs, she’ll lecture you on how silly it is like some irate mom. Drew Barrymore invited her to a party once, and she spent the whole time chain-smoking and not talking to anyone.
Oprah Winfrey - while not without episodes of bad behaviour, she has shown a decent side to her, once giving away cars to an audience, and when on holiday, gave her workers a bonus to compensate for still working.
Julia Roberts - when Steven Spielberg is on record not wanting to work with her again…. Her own sister doesn’t want anything to do with her, she’s such a bitch to everyone. Nick Nolte had to film scenes separately, she was that unprofessional to work with.
O J Simpson - framed of course by some “Puerto Rican guy” ;)
Joseph Gordon-Levitt - he seems to have mellowed out, but he himself has owned up to being a snobby douchebag when younger.
Wesley Snipes - got real uppity filming Blade: Trinity, to the point where he would only communicate with Post-It notes. Tried to strangle the director.
Edward Norton - notorious to work with, its all me me me, and will rewrite scripts to suit his own needs.
Toby Maguire - rude nasty little sh-t, once demanded a waitress bark as he thought she made too much money or some bollocks. One of those “dernnt look me in da eyes” divas.

Charlie Sheen - a complete fruitcake, abusive, sexist, drug addict, apparently addicted to gay porn too
Borderline
Katherine Heigl - openly berates co-stars and everything she works on, to the point of refusing an Emmy. Demanded 3 million bucks for a role that required merely a glorified cameo from her.
Bill Cosby - rapist
Patrick Dempsey - acted like a diva on the set of Grey’s Anatomy. Got himself written out of the show because of it.
Johnny Depp - has been known to get violent before, once punching a location manager. Caused 10,000 bucks worth of damage to a hotel room - and blamed it on his armadillo. Often refuses to learn his lines.
Nvidia Stock Slips. Why It Might Be Entering Its ‘Apple Era’. - Barron's
Pierce Brosnan - has been known to be a c-nt to people. Shoved James Corden out of his way when leaving a U2 concert. Rude to costars when the cameras are off.
Reese Witherspoon - the sweet girl image she usually has is bullsh-t. She’s an entitled spoiled brat, one who tried the “Do you know who I am?” routine when her husband was stopped by cops weaving in and out of lanes like a c-nt. Wears sunglasses so no-one makes eye contact with her.
Mike Myers - a narcissistic a-hole, the kind who fires people for making eye contact with him.

Sylvester Stallone - another one “deerrrnt look at me”, massive entitled dickhead.
Bruce Willis - though his more recent antics maybe down to his illness, he wasn’t a nice guy to work with prior to that, often refusing to take part in promotions for his own movies.
Bill Murray - rude miserable c-nt.
Hallucinogens Linked to Milder PTSD - Neuroscience News
others known for being c-nts: Mickey Rooney, Henry Fonda, Faye Dunaway, Jon Voight, Burt Reynolds, Steve McQueen, Jean-Claude Van Damme
Gwyneth Paltrow - a self-declared lifestyle expert sticking to healthy diets, it’s largely this that sees the worst in her, particularly when she insulted a 3-star Michelin restaurant chef.
Sarah Jessica Parker - it seems she only ever had issues with co-stars, she’s happier talking to fans despite having issues with shyness.
Chevy Chase - his SNL colleagues couldn’t stand him, he was rude to everyone.
Tom Cruise - there’s a good reason Katie Holmes ditched him, he was very controlling to a creepily excessive degree. The Scientology sh-t also tends to crop up on-set, attempts to proselytize do not go down well. During filming the second Top Gun, he told naval personnel not to talk to or look at him.
Kirsty Alley - another Scientologist, she insulted a friend that left the looney cult, and made some quip, many have refused to act with her.
Jonah Hill - tends to get uppity in interviews. Grumpy bastard.
Zooey Deschanel - control freak, gets uppity when things aren’t going her way.
Steven Seagal - assaults stuntmen, has a habit of molesting female co-stars, sleazy bastard, and difficult to work with.
Jan Michael Vincent - the Airwolf star was a wife-beater, drug and boozehound. Once punched a girlfriend so hard he broke his wrist.
Richard Burton - notorious drunk. Picked the wrong man to get into a fight with once: Lee Marvin.
Jared Leto - mistakes method acting with being an obnoxious dickhead. Rude to fans.
Meg Ryan - self-entitled bitch, gets snippety in interviews for no reason, cheated on Dennis Quaid with Russell Crowe
Catherine Zeta-Jones - expects people to wait on her hand and foot, doesn’t tip at restaurants, books gyms and condos all to herself at the expense of customers and tenants.
Russell Crowe - badmouths other celebs, once screamed at Gladiator producer at 3AM for low-balling an assistant and threatened to murder them, don’t you dare cut him off….
William Shatner - his fellow Trek cast members didn’t have kind words to say about him. Even other Trek series cast members - he apparently shouted down Denise Crosby at a convention every time she tried to answer someone.
Arnold Schwarzenegger - notorious when it comes to “a harmless bit of fun” when touching female co-stars and workers inappropriately. One assistant walked in on him going down on a lady that was most definitely not his wife at the time (and of course fathered a son with one of the help), and Arnie simply shrugged it off saying - “Eating isn’t cheating”. A shame as, when he’s not touching up the womenfolk, he has been known to help people out when in trouble. When filming Total Recall, he found out Michael Ironside’s sister was being treated for cancer, and he offered her advice on dietary and exercise that can help her out.
Klaus Kinski - would scream and rant at everyone, once fired a gun at a tent taking one guy’s finger off. He angered native South Americans who approached Werner Herzog with an offer to kill him, but Herzog talked them out of it. Herzog himself once threatened to shoot Klaus and himself if Klaus walked off the picture. Klaus thought himself as the messiah and would insult audiences that came to see him. He was insane.
Sarah Michelle Gellar - despite the role gaining her fame, she was openly critical of some of the storylines in Buffy the Vampire Slayer, and didn’t win her over with co-stars when she suddenly decided to quit. Is known to be very controlling with hubby Freddie Prinze Jr, even cutting friends of his out his life.
David Boreanaz - a cheat in his relationships, abusive to others, once accused of sexual harrassment
Christian Bale - infamous for tantrums, and rages
Val Kilmer - Joel Schumacher accused him of being childish, John Frankenheimer never wanted to work with him again
