The snobbiest and most stuck-up celebrities

Don't blame me: I fed her Kraft Dinner and took her to Disneyland.

Robert De Niro, according to my friend who works film festival press, is FULL of himself.

R4 What does he say/do?

I've heard the words snobby and snotty repeatedly used to describe Carrie Underwood. Quite rude by many accounts.

Norah O Donnell is a notorious cunt. Her colleague Charlie Rose was a nasty disdainful snob as well from what I heard.

I liked him in That '70s Show, but I've never heard a pleasant thing about Topher Grace.

Barbra is up there.

R9 = Dionne Warwick

This is a hard one to comment on because you led with Gwinnie, the biggest, stuck up imbecile in all of Hollywood.

I can confirm Streisand is a WAD. I used to work in the industry. She's a pain in the ass, but when she's comfortable and chatty around those she knows she is at least human. Gwyneth is just a stuck up cunt.

Marilu Henner was a bit full of herself. Honey, you played Nardo on Taxi. I didn't deal with her personally but I've heard some horror stories about Tina Louise.

Generally speaking, the bigger celebs are better behaved. That isn't always the case, but the ones who think they have arrived act all important and are usually those that have short lived, B level (or lower) careers.

Personal knowledge, Barbra is vile.

I can see Barba being engaging and social, but never really seeing a average person as an equal peer unless they are “someone”. She may not say it you or show it, but it’s there.

Barbra*

Gwyneth says a lot of things gay men on DL say...

Your point being, r15? That doesn't excuse anything.

And though you may want to reduce us all to "gay men on DL," we are not one unit, nor do we speak with one voice.

Oh get over yourself triggered cunt R16.

Mel brooks Was an abusive tyrant that foamed at the mouth when he was directing . I heard this from a camera man .

Being a tyrant does not mean he was a snob or stuck-up.

You're the one who seems triggered, toots.

She’s a common cunt. Nothing special except her inflated narcissist’s ego.

What R18 said.

[quote] She’s a common cunt.

She's nothing than a common frump, you mean!

Gwyneth really is the gold standard for snobbery and a distorted sense of self-importance. She’s hard to beat.

There’s a story about how Goop’s dad took her to Paris when she was in her early teens and justified it by saying something along the line of “You should see Paris for the first time with a man who loves you.”

No wonder she grew up an entitled WASP.

R17- I could NEVER stand her sunny, cross eyed self.

R26 ???

TIL canned cheese exists

Except, she wasn’t brought to Paris by a WASP

Kourtney Kasdashian asked her nanny to call her "madam". I was absolutely floored by the snobby, desperate insecurity of this request. She obviously sees her as some kind of aristocrat. HA!

"Stuck-up"?

OP, at 12 years old you shouldn't be posting so late in the evening. Little tards need their sleep, Missy.

Anna Kendrick

Kristen Bell

Justin Timberlake

Taika Waititi

[quote]“The British are much more intelligent and civilized than Americans.”

That’s not even true

R34 sorry for shithousing but the rest of the world were winding us up

My version of the Gwyneth story: she was in Berlin for the premiere of The Talented Mr Ripley, along with the other stars, at the Berlin Film Festival. A local channel did a nightly show about the festival and got to ask her a few questions. They asked her if she was hopeful that the movie would win the Golden Bear, and she looked baffled and then finally got out, "Oh, you mean the little prize?"

Berliners take the silly film festival way too seriously, but I thought she was such an ass for not even hiding how above it all she was.

[quote]Ann Hathaway owns this thread

I will CUT you.

Gwyneth certainly is snobby based on those statements. Yet, I get the feeling that she'd be fine in person. Thoughts? Like she wouldn't be the celeb that has meltdowns among "commoners" due to some perceived slight or because things didn't go exactly as she wanted.

Kathy Griffin has a story about engaging Anna Kendrick in small talk and being told to fuck off. I've never liked her.

Edward Norton owns this thread. And he’s also a thin-skinned petty little bitch.

That said, I do think he was the best Bruce Banner, and I like that he is now sneery of the ridiculous childish braindead cinematic culture that has sprung up around comic-book hero movies of late. He can be right, and still be a prick.

Gayle King, and she has no reason to be. Her fame is not a result of talent or smarts, but from flicking Oprah’s bean.

R5 I assumed some of it was shyness (just from press interviews with Bobby D you can tell he absolutely hates talking to strangers) but my friend said he looked down on everyone who wasn't part of his immediate entourage, refusing to speak directly to my friend or any other "lower" level workers, and had a screaming conversation on his phone in earshot of a ton of people.

Cunt Extraordinaire

R2: I'm actually surprised so many women like her. She has the perfect life, career, and family. You'd think some women would be threatened by that but they're not.

[quote] “The British are much more intelligent and civilised than Americans.”

This is absolutely true. The Americans on here excluded though, you guys are lovely.

You would have to interact with these people to know if they are really snobs in real life. I think keeping a healthy distance from vipers is a respectable thing.

There is a lot of space between keeping a distance and being a snob.

Gwen seems kind of down to earth in interviews. Her reputation is of course aloof, above it all, but she doesn’t come across that way to me. She is aspirational with her brand, clearly, but is she really a snob?

I agree that the outwardly snooty types would be stuck on the b list or below.

It’s an ignorant disposition, and reflects lower character.

Speaking of snobbish and stuck-up: ladies and gentlemen, please give a hand for r45!

[quote] Gwyneth certainly is snobby based on those statements. Yet, I get the feeling that she'd be fine in person. Thoughts?

My thought is that "getting a feeling" about someone isn't much of an argument.

Gwyneth is not "an entitled WASP." Her father is Jewish and Polish, and she is not a practicing Jew or Protestant.

She would be "an entitled White Northern European Buddhist (Lite)."

Apparently, Emma Watson.

Y’all’re so sweet, R48! Thank you!

[Quote] She has the perfect life, career, and family.

Except she doesn't. No one does.

I’m a Hollywood insider and have appeared in more than a few productions. I can tell you from personal experience, when someone recognizes you and you’re not in the mood, it’s extremely annoying to play nice. We’re just normal people. I detest rude people, but I keep it nice and short and when they ask, I tell them I can’t take a selfie today, but I’m sorry. So we’re not “snobby,” we’re just off work.

r54 tell us who you are or it's delusional bullshit

I'm surprised no one has mentioned Mariah Carey. Although - would we call it stuck-up or just delusional, over the top Diva?

Can't stand her in any case.

That hideous cunt Leslie Mann. I can tell just from looking at her, and from her pretentious cackling voice that she is a Grade A Snob.

Unpopular opinion: I like Gwyneth. I think she comes across rather goofy a lot of the time, as though she knows everyone thinks she's a snob so she leans into it.

JLaw seems snobby to me. She was basically trailer trash before Harvey jizzed all over her face and made her a star. I'll never forgive her condescension to the journo at the Golden Globes. She's nothing but a snotty, pretentious broad who let Harvey paw her all over just to get ahead.

R58 how ironic that you're trashing JLaw for sleeping with Harvey but not Goop.

I don't think Gwyneth did sleep with Harvey. She didn't need his help to get ahead. But, believe what you will.

I think Gwyneth is harmless. She’s ridiculous but seems in on the joke. Good actress too.

Surprised Madonna hasn’t been mentioned yet.

R60 then you're naive. You don't get to the a-list without selling your soul.

Melissa George is a total snob. Funny, because she's a total nobody.

I'm sure most on the A-list have sold their souls to get there R62, but Gwyneth had family connections. Doors were opened for her. Maybe she did fuck Harvey, we'll never really know, but she sure as hell wasn't stupid enough to get caught with jizz on her face.

The late Aretha Franklin was a snotty, stuck up, rancid bitch cunt from hell.

Ava DuVernay seems ridiculously stuck up

Did you know?

Twenty-five thousand!

R62 - Gwynyth's dad was a director and producer in his own right and also close with Steven Spielberg and much bigger names. Harvey knew who she was and her parents' connections. He wasn't going to fuck with that.

In fact, I believe Steven Spielberg is her godfather. I know she spent some holidays at his house growing up.

That's not someone Harvey is going to fuck with. He targeted upcoming starlets with ambition but who did not have many connections.

Having tried as hard as I’m willing to, the only thing I came away with from watching as much as I could stand of the Edward Norton clip at R40, is a complete lack of surprise that he feels it’s necessary to say “You know what I mean” repeatedly.

That said, I am impressed that he was brave enough to use the word “flop.” The poor guy is desperately trying to make it sound like rocket science when what he means is, “I felt really bad cuz nobody liked my movie at first, you know what I mean, but then later it kinda, like, got more popular so then I felt like maybe it just took a while to reach the special people and people mention it a lot now so I feel special again. You know what I mean?”

R62: Yep. Same thing with politics. You don't get to the top of the political pyramid without selling your soul.

R64 why would Harvey give a shit about who her parents were? And no i don't think SS being her Godfather made the slightest difference. The jizz photos aren't Jennifer.

Dorothy Kilgallen.

Supermarkets? Well I wouldn't know anything about those.

The thingie about the crack over tin packaged cheese means Goop’s hit a crack pipe or two in her day.

An artisan blown, glass crack pipe from the finest glass blowers in rural England, but of course!

This won’t mean much to people outside Britain or people who aren’t fans of sport, but; retired footballer and current team manager Frank Lampard comes over a bit like this. He’s not really a dreadful snob compared to many celebrities in other fields, but the yardstick of the world of the English Premier League he is rather (and I’m sure his social-climbing WAG—a former friend of Sparkle—doesn’t help...).

This may be because, unlike 95% of pro footballers, he went to a private school (paid for by his working-class successful father) and had an excellent education, for which he achieved reasonably-good results. This is quite evident in the way he speaks; belying his background, he affects a wideboy Mockney accent much like that of his famous Uncle Harry (Redknapp), but hasn’t altered his posho vocabulary to match. Doing punditry, he routinely talks over others, reiterates points already made in a more circumspect manner, and occasionally blurts out ‘big words’ which leave other pundits (ex-footballers) scratching their heads.

He also had a tendency as a player to become touchy and defensive when lightly ribbed by fans or other players (for example, about his weight), to give lengthy and pretentious post-match debrief comments, and to hold up matches so he could pick nits with referees about very minor rulebook discrepancies for which everyone else in the game did not want to stop play. This gave rise to the slang term ‘lamparding’, meaning to complain or mansplain in a hoity-toity precious and tone-deaf manner, usually in company of people who do not care and think you’re a twat.

All that said, he was one of the best to ever kick a ball, he’s richer than most of us will ever be, and he’s nice-looking as well. So I suppose he’s laughing.

Mariah Carey "The X Factor - Mariah Carey night - LIVE!!!" by Heidi Stephens, www.theguardian.com. November 8, 2008.

R71 - don't be naive. You don't sexually harass or rape someone like Gwynyth without knowing she's going to tell her parents, Steven Spielberg and many others.

As much as you want to believe that narrative that she must have fucked Weinstein, it's just not probable. She had more than enough connections in the industry and was pushed upwards without having to suck him off.

Harvey went after the powerless and vulnerable.

R76 I don't buy it. I definitely think she had to do something for Shakespeare In Love.

R77 - well, your 'belief' is unfounded and blinded by your hatred for her. Look at HW's victims - Gwynyth doesn't fit the profile. And yes, she had power and recognition in the industry due to her parents, despite what you think. Weinstein wouldn't touch her. And Gwynyth certainly wouldn't keep her mouth shut about it.

She was already fucking Brad Pitt around that time.

Fucking hell. Goop doesn’t even need to be present to shit up otherwise interesting threads.

R78 I don't hate Goop. I just don't think her connections were enough to stop Harvey. I don't see what fucking Brad has to do with it. And everyone kept their mouth shut about him. She could have said something years ago but didn't.

R80 - because fucking Brad put her in papers and got her a lot of publicity. It was also another huge star that she had a connection to that she could use in her defense.

You just don't go fucking around with a woman whose godfather is Steven Spielberg, whose parents are well known in the industry, and who also was dating the Handsomest Man Alive.

HW was a predator and targeted up and coming starlets with little connections. For you to twist this around and think that she had no talent and got the role AND an Oscar because of HW is just your imagination.

R80

Tom Ford should be added to this thread. He is so full of himself.

R81 Weinstein sexually harassed her, so her family clout didn't help her always.

Gwynnie could have been a force for good ala' Audrey Hepburn. What a disappointment.

R84 lol yes Brad who "stood up" to Harvey yet continued to work with him after what happened with Angelina (another industry kid).

R86 I'm not defending Brad Pitt, or making him out to be some sort of hero. The point is that Weinstein sexually harassed Gwyneth Paltrow despite her family name or connections.

don't know if this is considered snobby or stuck up, but there is tom cruise, who LITERALLY thinks he is a "big being" the only 2 of them on this entire planet along with his "cough cough" best friend miscavige...

so i'm guessing this is more in the territory of insanity and evil....

Really bitches? 88 replies and no mention of the mean stuck up snob Queen Bee Julia Roberts?

Fishsticks guzzled Harvey's jizz willingly. She's not his classic type but she is skinny with a mouth and cunt. He bought her an Oscar. That is a transactional relationship, not sexual molestation. Just like with Brad.

R88 what a coincidence that he is one of the only two! Imagine that! Lol It’s like declaring yourself a saint.

[quote] “I’d rather smoke crack than eat cheese out of a tin."

Her pretentiousness is revealed even by how she worded that. Americans don't say "cheese out of a tin"--we say "cheese out of a can."

I'm sorry but I don't think it's cute that she's in on the joke of being a fucking snob as some poster claim. It's vile and sad even if you show some kind of self awareness about it. It's almost worst because you know you ar being an asshole.

Lea Michelle

Madonna (even though she started at Burger King)

Julia Roberts

The horrid Cilla Black was described as a "blue-collar snob," and someone quipped she was so grand she resented sharing a car with her chauffeur.

We can't forget our beloved Fanny Cradock, who deigned to teach British housewives how to make mincemeat omelettes and Angry Chinese Egg Men.

She lost her career after being a complete snob to Gwen Troake on TV.

[quote] Goop’s dad took her to Paris when she was in her early teens and justified it by saying something along the line of “You should see Paris for the first time with a man who loves you.”

Tellement mignon!

[quote]“The British are much more intelligent and civilized than Americans.”

Proof that she's dumb.

I don't think even Gwenyth Paltrow is a bigger snob than Julia Roberts.

Anna Kendricks and Blake Lively acting like total snotty mean girls above it all in the Wired Google Search Show.

Gwynnie may come from a long line of rabbis, but it's harder to think of a more goyish pedigree than the upper east side/Spence and dropping out of UC Santa Barbara.

Ellen. She only associates with other celebrities that she feels is on her level.

According to reddit John Krasinski and Jenna Fischer were snotty on the set of the Office.

R103 and look where that got Jenna...

"Gwen seems kind of down to earth in interviews. Her reputation is of course aloof, above it all, but she doesn’t come across that way to me. She is aspirational with her brand, clearly, but is she really a snob?"

I think she probably understands her privilege. And being "above it all" I think would be the reason she'd be fairly "normal" in real life. She wouldn't sink to the level of celebs who have meltdowns with the "little people" BECAUSE she's above it all. I guess I'm saying that even if she IS aloof and snobby, she wouldn't be a terror in real-life situations. She'd "good manners" her way through it or simply ignore it.
