Emily Blunt is officially a pretentious snob

DL would never.

What part of "Blunt" don't lesser-than people get?

She's always been a bit suspect, seeing as she's married to a rightwinger like John Krasinski.

Insufferable cunt. Well suited to Krasinski

I knew I always liked her.

DL is 98% fat shaming, but who wants to pass up a tsk tsk moment

That's it? Who cares?

And is DL of all places really pretending to be offended by that story?

She's apologizing for "any hurt caused" what joke...if i was her i would tell those fatties to fuck off

Oh my!! Puh-lease. Don't say everything on your mind but a little here and there isn't that bad.

Other than her supporting role in Devil Wears Prada, she’s never given a performance that really stood out. I don’t understand why critics always hail her as the best thing in her string of weak movies. Oppenheimer is considered to be an exception, but she’s barely in it and, again, forgettable.

She always gave off twat vibes. She got the American citizenship she wanted and became her creepy husband’s muse.

These bitches should just own being a cunt.

And anyone who thinks they know a celebrity—“I really liked her!!” is delusional.

Apology NOT accepted.

She has a forgettable face.

Chill out, Europeans love laughing at fat American people and their appalling food choices

As a pretentious snob she should feel right at home here at D l.

John Krasinski is a right winger? Who says? There’s a lot of loose talk going around here.

This is so stupid. WHO cares? People are seriously offended by everything.

They’re basing it off that Benghazi movie he did with Michael bay

He was at his peak there, omg.

Years ago, there was a reddit thread in which someone claimed they worked as a PA on The Office. The poster said that John Krasinksi and Jenna Fischer were snotty assholes with crew members. I've always gotten a phony vibe from both Krasinski and Fischer. But, I have to give Krasisnki some credit because he doesn't glom onto The Office as much as Fishcer does.

R16 It has been a matter of speculation for years.

She can’t do an American accent at all.

Wasn't there a blind item that was saying that Blunt and Krasinski are secretly separated ?

Over a decade ago she commented on the huge size of someone?

When I was young I thought it would be really cool to be a famous TV or movie star. Never in a million years would I want that now. I’m sure I’ve said much, much worse.

And nobody wants me to be a movie star, but all of this picking people apart is just driving reasonable people to stay out of ANY roles in the public eye and, especially, never voice an opinion. So the only people talking are idiots. Kids growing up today are never going to hear an intelligent person say anything if they don’t have smart parents with a circle of similar friends. And, even if they do, what are the chances that that circle will have diverse viewpoints?

It was a bitchy thing to say because the woman was on her feet, working and serving Blunt. Not complaining that she wasn’t getting a free extra airplane seat. But who fucking cares?! And she was probably slower than an average sized waitress and will eventually have to quit or even go on disability. Obesity is a drain. But weight management is tough. And much tougher for some than others. Mild shaming is OK and this is definitely in the mild category.

What she said wasn’t even that bad. It was very passive. People really are offended by anything now and it’s ridiculous. You can’t say ANYTHING. You can’t even have your own opinion anymore.

They are mostly all whores, male and female, and will do anything to be famous…and they read a room on a talk show and get a cheap laugh. Unlike the old days all of this stuff is now being resurfaced and times have changed / aka fat jokes…so now they’re reading the room and issuing apologies. But the bottom line is they’re all narcissists who will do anything to make money and retain fame. I wouldn’t take anything they say seriously…most of them have no beliefs / opinions at all…and just believe in themselves.

She seems like a bitch and I don’t think she’s that great of an actor - but her apology for this was more than sufficient. And like someone said - everyone loves to mock fat dumb Americans. She was on a British talk show. So what else is new?

Permanently B list

I never understood why she was considered interesting. I wish Hollywood would stop shoving her and her jug-eared husband in us.

R27 only to someone like you. Shes a household name and A list actress.

Her husband is allegedly an asshole to deal with and she’s a raging bitch behind the scenes. The nice guy act is just that, an act.

I think all the Bostonians that have become stars are massive assholes.

I would love a suck of John's peen

Krasinski is desperate to be an A-lister. It probably won't happen. His nose is quite fugly and distracting. The nice guy act is phony.

When A Quiet Place first came out, a bunch of disability and Deaf organizations were praising Krasinksi because he had been telling people in interviews that he made sure a Deaf actress got the part of the daughter in the movie. Most people are too stupid to realize Krasinski is a phony and I bet at some point he and Blunt will ghost Millicent Simmonds.

She’s always a co-star. Never the star. She can’t carry a film and she’s now 40+. Bye Emily.

DL pretending to be offended at fat shaming....lol....how ironic.

R29 There is no A list anymore, largely because there are no longer A list productions. Had there been a functioning A list, Blunt would have peaked at A- and now is a B.

R33 some actors are better at supporting. Shes one of them. That doesn’t mean she isn’t a star. She is. She’s just not meant to be the lead despite them trying to force that.

She is another one of those stuffy private school rich British people who steal roles from American actors. She is bland, forgettable and simply lacks star quality. Furthermore, she is neither beautiful or interesting.

R35 stupid comment. Blunt has been around for many years now and around when “A-List” productions were still a thing. Prada shot her to worldwide stardom.

A-List exists still and has nothing to do with “productions”. It’s about name recognition etc. now. We are now in 2023. Welcome. Time to leave the 90s behind.

I don't know why anyone would ever think she's nice. There's this movie, "My Summer of Love" (2004 - her first movie?), check it out. She's basically playing herself. That's why she was cast for it.

A list gets first right of refusal on scripts. I'd say they go to Blunt after Margot Robbie, Emma Stone, and maybe still Jennifer Lawrence turn them down.

Not surprising - her husband is a wretched twat.

R40 lmao oh honey. Those actresses aren’t all up for the same roles and you know it.

J Law doesn’t get offered good roles anymore.

A list actors have at least one role where their performance anchored the movie and drove its success/appeal.

Emma Stone in La La Land Robbie in Barbie Kidman in Moulin Rouge Witherspoon in Legally Blonde Zellweger in Bridget Jones Hathaway in Rachel Getting Married and Prada (it was her movie) Roberts in Pretty Woman Lawrence in Silver Linings Bullock in Miss Congeniality Weaver in Aliens Streep in Sophie’s Choice

What movie or role is Blunt memorable for? She’s always someone’s co-star and, sorry, Mary Poppins is still Ms. Julie Andrews. Always will be.

R6, talk about hypocrisy, eh! What a fucking delight this place is! Now proven full of shit, but a total delight for it! Though not, I'd offer, in the way you'd want to be considered so.

It's not her fault the British learn to draw on vocabulary when they tell a story.

[quote]I’ve sensed this “air”

That's just your insecurity fucking you up further, OP.

That waitress is 67 stomach bugs away from her goal weight

[quote]Emily Blunt blasted for calling waitress ‘enormous’ in resurfaced interview: ‘She’s a fatphobic unfunny mean girl’

Well, if calling out fatties makes someone pretentious, everyone on DL...

...oh wait.

R3 I didn't realise he was right wing, but somehow I'm not surprised.

I liked her as Queen Victoria. I can't remember if that was a British movie or what? But she was really good in it. She did have a superior air about her but that fit the character.

And the Devil Meets Prada - she made that movie. I loved her.

I don't get the fuss. She told a story on a British talk show, the same way everybody on DL would have told a story privately around a dinner table. Actually, given it involved fat, she probably told it more gently.

R50, Meryl Streep made that movie. No one saw or heard of Queen Victoria.

She's never had an Oscar nomination. Ever. Not one.

R26- ACTRESS not actor

She's homely.

Big talk coming from someone who starred in "Jungle Cruise," Emily.

She’s beginning to look simian like Faye Dunaway

I like her.

And how is it assumed that Krasinski is a right-winger? Did he say he was?

Loads of plastic surgery since Prada

I will forever love her for the film “Sunshine Cleaning”.

What she said was stupid but also 13 years ago. I just googled her name and this “story” is all over the web. She should just own it and post sexy nudes.

Wouldn’t be surprised if some lipo was done to avoid being “enormous” like the waitress either.

R60, no one saw that.

[quote]She is another one of those stuffy private school rich British people who steal roles from American actors.

LOL... when you can't compete, blame somebody else. Moron.

She made an enormous mistake.

There is no proof John is right wing.

R38 We regret to inform you that you have surpassed your allocation of quotation marks for the year. We look forward to your reset on 1/1/2024.

My advice to Emily: quit with the fillers. Her face is looking funky.

Fillers, unless used minimally, are a bad choice for anybody.

r43 No amount of anchoring could help Rachel Getting Married. It sucked yellow loogies.

R65 Tell us more about John. We're gathered at your feet!

R68, Hathaway has done stinkers. Many. However, she can be brilliant in the right role and she deserved to win over Winslet for “Rachel”.

She was great in Oppenheimer. Hope she gets an Oscar.She called someone enormous 12 years ago. Kill the witch!

Ok, I’ll pile on the husband and the fake nice guy act…

Remember when he started doing that Zoom show during the pandemic called “Some Good News”? Meant to cheer everyone up.

And then he sold it to the highest bidder, CBS/Viacom.

Let’s destroy her because she’s less ultra-perfect than we demand she be!

R1 had it right. Everyone has their low and mean side. Literally everyone. I’m just glad I’m not a celebrity, constantly under surveillance to find those less-than-perfect moments I’ll be entirely defined by.

R72, what did CBS/Viacom end up doing with it? Does it even still exist post-lockdown?

She looks so strange in the picture on the left in the preview. Is it just fillers, r67? The face is so masulinized. She's almost heading into MTG territory.

She's always come across as a snob or as my grandmother would have said "snooty."

She would fit in right at home at DL

Join us Emily!

^masculinized at r75.

That article up thread was a mess. The author wrote on and on about getting right winged vibes off of several career choices Krasinski has made but then shrugs off his Elizabeth Warren fundraising?

It was a thoughtless thing to say, but she was young and probably was just trying to be clever.

Ina Garten interviewed her on her Cooking with Celebs show (or whatever it was called) and was dull - didn't have much to say other than rehashing some old anecdote about stuttering, but she frequently worked her husband ("my husband John always says.."), which I thought was kind of curious. We already know who you're married to - you don't need to bring it up every five minutes.

She dated douche Michael Buble for years - not surprising that she is a cunt.

She’ll enter the postmenopausal virility soon. See Joan Crawford after 1950.

She played bad ass really well in that fighting aliens on earth movie she made with Tom Cruse. Edge of Tomorrow or something similar.

And she was really good in Queen Victoria.i

Another cancel culture victim. Shit so stupid. So what she is a jerk or a real cunt. If she was talking about a middle aged white man who owned a lawn mowing business it would be OK.

[quote]Other than her supporting role in Devil Wears Prada, she’s never given a performance that really stood out.

She's just so bland. I've always been slightly mystified by her fame.

Remind me never to say anything in 2012 that could offend the fatty moral police in the future

[quote] I’m just glad I’m not a celebrity, constantly under surveillance to find those less-than-perfect moments I’ll be entirely defined by.

You don't need to be a celebrity for that in this day and age. If you have social media, that's a hazard in itself. Also, cell phone cameras in every hand, everywhere.

Eat your feelings, fat whores!

I love her! And fat people are gross. She is legend.

She was good in Young Victoria and she was certainly the star of that movie.

I've never heard that the husband was a right-winger and I don't believe it.

R90 Do you love him? Have you told him?

r75 r78 Masculinilated, OK?!

John never bothered to flash his big peen onscreen

Maybe what’s interesting about this episode of celebrity ass-covering is that she or her team were so quick to get out ahead of this story. Proactive PR. I don’t know whether that says something about the intensity of cancel culture or about her/her team’s vigilance about her reputation. It sounds exhausting.

This morning I almost started this thread by saying, “I always thought she was a cunt.” Or, “Cunts gonna cunt.” But I couldn’t decide. And then I thought I’d spare myself the bad karma points. But you bitches just make it impossible to be a good person.

Im an epic God of a multiverse meta AI DL irony. I accept the compliment.

It took her twelve years to apologize. She’s never received any Oscar nominations and she’s in contention for being associated with Oppenheimer, despite contributing nothing whatsoever to that film’s legacy (“go break a leg, Robert”). She’s competing in a weak category this year for Supporting Actress. I hope she doesn’t make the cut. The nominees should be:

Taraji P. Henson The Color Purple

Jodie Foster Nyad

Julianne Moore May December

Da'Vine Joy Randolph The Holdovers

Sandra Huller The Zone of Interest

I doubt she will make it it, but Rosalind Pike is the best thing in Saltburn.

[quote] Julianne Moore

Seriously?

[Quote]She's almost heading into MTG territory.

Magic the Gathering?

Is there a problem with simply using the word "masculine" for some reason?

"Masculinated" is not a word and isn't needed as one. If you think her face looks more masculine than it used to, say that.

I’m meaner than that, it’s just shitty because it’s a poor service worker and she’s a privileged princess

What ever happen to striving for excellence. The fat ho deserved to be shamed.

I said some minor idiotic remark I'm embarrassed about just yesterday. God forbid I get publicly shamed for it 10 years from now.

R71 I think calling Emily "great" in Oppenheimer is a bit of a stretch. Most of her scenes centered around neglecting her wailing brats and yelling at her husband like a frau.

r40 “right of refusal?” Like in sale agreements for condos? Are you dazzling us with jargon? You mean they get offered scripts first.

R99 Finally! It’s “Masculinacious.”

Nah, Emily’s performance is the one thing I took away from zzzzzzzOppenheimerzzzzzzz.

I agree she’s a Julianne Moore in the making. She just needs to embrace the cuntiness.

[Quote]she’s a Julianne Moore in the making

Seriously?

[quote]It took her twelve years to apologize.

JESUS MARY!

She made a flippant throwaway comment on a chat show over a decade ago.

I loved her as the secretary on The Office, Such a cute couple.

Shooting a withering stare at R109.

But did the fat waitress bring her coffee that was steaming hot? I mean SEARING!

She’s the Sarah Miles of this generation.

I agree with the poster upthread who said the worst part is that Blunt is a privileged princess swiping at a server who works at Chili's. Have some noblesse oblige, cunt.

Not all people in the UK or the EU countries are stick thin either. Europe may not have the 600 lb life fatties that the US does but the last time I was in the EU, quite a few were pleasantly plump. France was the only country that impressed me as having a majority of slim people.

Eleven years ago, she said something that was indeed blunt as her name, yet probably true. She apologized profusely when this resurfaced, yet people are still piling on. How exactly do they square that with their "be kind" credo?

It's just become cool to bully different people than were bullied before... that's it.

[quote]you bitches just make it impossible to be a good person.

Another DL motto is born.

I don't really care what she said to be honest, R114, and I am so over the trend of people being dragged for things they said years ago. People change, and evolve - usually for the better. I just like to engage in pointless bitchery!

Some waitresses are really fat, can you imagine that!? And shovel down lots of free food, can you imagine that!?

Exactly, r116, i came here to say the same. Maybe she’s not so nice, but this was a minor comment made 11 years ago, FCS. If you want to carry out a witch hunt, at least go for something more recent.

Aside from questionable talent and meek screen presence, she’s a snobby Brit. Bitched and moaned about becoming a US citizen years ago too.

The UK has Chili’s too. Move back and go try them out, Em.

She will NEVER be President.

So what did she really think of Kelly Clarkson?

I'm glad she choose to make Gulliver Travels with Jack Black instead of the Avengers Black Widow role.

Most old, off the cuff comments that are draggable aren't worth mentioning. After so many years who cares other than those who carry a grudge against an individual. It's usually bullshit.

There are exceptions. We can trace Dump's racist, homophobic, anti-Semitic comments going back decades. It doesn't matter except that it was an early heads up on what kind of douchebag he is.

Sweet hairy fuck!

The botox has wrecked this bitch's face.

Where's that Boston prick husband of hers?

Maybe her kids are growing up to be fat and she’s afraid they will see the video.

John Krasinski looks like he'd be quite a lardball if he didn't work out and diet like a Hollywood star. I imagine him fat would rather resemble John Candy (may he rest in Reese's Pieces).

So where’s the lie? The waitress was fat and she said so. And of course Jonathan Ross isn’t going to get called out on this. He was leading the interview for someone who was just starting out and he wanted a gotcha moment. I like her. I always have. I’m so tired of these politically correct bland actresses. She’s kinda of a bitch and I love it. JK seems like a genuine guy and they have a good marriage. A whole lot of nothing about nothing IMO.

R126 while I agree it's something over nothing, Blunt wasn't just starting out, she'd been famous for almost 10 years at this point. I think if you went through interviews with famous people over the years you'd find lots that would be unacceptable to say nowadays. Times change

R125, Krasinski is Polish/Irish.

R29 A household name? Zsa Zsa Gabor is a household name. All my daughters are!

OP et al No one takes this seriously.

The dominant strain of entertainment and gossip blogs and rags rely on following social media palace intrigue (as well as forensics) to create articles and drive clicks (Such and such unfollowed so and so). It’s just lazy content creation. No one gives a shit that a minor celebrity clawing her way up referenced a fat American waitress 12 years ago, a time when one was still allowed to call fat people fat.

It’s just the entertainment industry eating itself, puking it out, and calling it content creation.

It’s funny how she went to great lengths to explain she was forced to make Gulliver’s Travels but offers no explanation why she made that film with The Rock and the rest of her shit resume.

The only reason she’s apologising for this is because she’s on the hunt for an Oscar.

If she wins anything this awards season I hope they have Chrissy Metz and Precious present it to her.

R133, there is the stage to think about. It may buckle under.

What has she or John K done specifically that so many people say they are entitled assholes.

[quote]I liked her as Queen Victoria. I can't remember if that was a British movie or what? But she was really good in it. She did have a superior air about her but that fit the character.

She was also great in Paweł Pawlikowski's "My Summer of Love," as a privileged boarding school student who treats her working-class lesbian lover (and everyone else she encounters) like shit.

This is a whole lot of nothing. Was she a snob? Sure. Big deal. I do think it's funny she makes fun of weight when she's always looked kind of thick to me, for a film actress anyway. Probably looks thin in person though.

I just don't understand her fame. Not ugly by any means but has that British plainness that so many Brits have, and she's totally free of charisma to boot. Haven't seen much of her work beyond Devil Wears Prada but it seems as though she's only able to play bitchy snobs.

She was punching down. Way down. What a cunt. Boy, the burden of carrying that privilege must get to her at times, the poor thing.

When someone tells you who they are, take them at their word.

All the fat chicks are bitching about Blunt now.

She's fine. She's a decent enough actress, preferable to many of her American counterparts. Of course she's fat-phobic, what did you expect? Many people who put in the effort to diet and exercise and are disciplined enough to keep their own weight at a "cinema ready" level are going to notice great big fat people. All of us notice them, how can we not?

She's quite stocky and thick for an actress imo.

The only way to make amends is for Ms. Blunt's people to track down the tubby waitress and send her a gift hamper of Ozempic.

R52 (not R50 here); I agree with you; one of my favorite roles Meryl has ever played.

That said, I do think Blunt is impressive for standing out in the film ESPECIALLY as it starred Streep and Hathaway.

Blunt is no Hathaway. She’s a plain Jane Brit wannabe Hollywood star.

R142 and r50 are vanilla white boys with toothpick dicks

"Emily" should become cockney rhyming slang for what she is.

She is horrible in Pain Hustlers. Chris Evans looks like a Shakespeare thespian next to her.

That Florida accent…🤮

She’s not popular in the USA. She should be an Eastenders supporting actress.

I like her. Liked her in Prada, the movies where they had to be silent, the one in Yemen, and the Tom Cruise Movie for people who hate Tom Cruise. Sorry it’s Sunday morning and I’m sick as a dog. Googling is off the table I’m afraid. But she’s great.

Unless she's really chunked out of late in no way would I consider her thick.

She's been fine in the few movies I've seen her in but her filmography isn't particularly impressive. Same goes for AnnE
