It's fascinating how most of us are somewhat acclimated to the fact that there are some terrible people out there, but when it comes to famous personalities, whether that would be talk show hosts or full-on Hollywood actors, our judgement gets a little clouded. Who can blame us – it's hard to imagine celebrities living a morally incorrect life when their life seems to be so flawless. We're used to seeing them on big screens, where no mistakes are allowed, so we automatically assume they could do no wrong. 

What doesn't help is their ability to have any potential scandal go away. Odd things they might've done get proclaimed as rumors, and the fans continue praising their favorites for their endless talent. 

However, this Reddit user decided to dive into the celebrity drama world and asked fellow users to reveal why they've happened to lose all their respect for a well-known personality. The post received almost 30K upvotes and over 24K comments worth of names.

Oprah Winfrey

Oprah Winfrey

I'm surprised no one has mentioned Oprah Winfrey yet. Not only did she give a major platform to Dr. Oz & Dr. Phil, she also was good friends with Harvey Weinstein and kept her mouth shut about him, then went on to give a pro-Me-Too speech at the Oscars after he was arrested and got thunderous applause.

10,000 upvotes with a cherry on top. She gave us two shysters who have wreaked havoc. Dr. Oz is loathed by actual medical practitioners, and Dr. Phil is only slightly less loathed by psych professionals.

I mean that's hardly surprising. If she's going to treat the people she *needs* in order for her show to have viewers like trash, of course she's going to treat people she's paying even worse.

She has always done the "be kind" thing and yet she has taken pleasure in terrifying many of her guests, bullying them, mocking them, insulting them. Then doing games on the show that involve terrifying and humiliating the audience. And behind the scenes, she apparently bullies and terrorizes her staff. Not sure why anyone ever liked her.

I never liked her or her show. I only see clips of her show on Facebook. She seems to be a try hard and is rude. I find it cringey. She thinks she is above her guests and her jokes or scripts are not even funny or entertaining . This is just my opinion and observation.

This unbagged trash is basically famous for being gay, do I have that correct? No talents or skills there, just a gay chick. Not much else to offer, except her generally toxic opinions. Kind of like Oprah. Fat, black, hates men. A disgruntled manatee with an opinion. Exactly what Hollywood was trying to serve up then. By these standards, I should easily be able to get my own show based on my hetero tendencies, my crush on an undisclosed office girl, and being able to beat up dr Phil in seconds flat, lol!

No, you don't have that correct. She was a stand up comedian and had her own sitcom, all long before she came out. Even though she came out on her sitcom, it wasn't until the 4th season. The Puppy Episode" was an enormous ratings success, won multiple awards and became a cultural phenomenon. That show helped reduce societal prejudices against LGTBQ. However, she's a huge a$$hole now, I agree with that. It seems you have similar tendencies

Plenty of people have a mental illness and most of them don’t carry on like this self absorbed overgrown spoilt brat. People like her give people with mental illness a bad image using it as an excuse for bad behaviour

Prince

Prince

He met his ex-wife when she was sixteen (and declared he was going to marry her right then) and then put her on birth control at nineteen after they had “a really deep friendship” (yeah right) for three years. He later made her do an interview a week after their son died, threw that son’s ashes away, refused to let her get medical care for a miscarriage, and dumped her by the time she was twenty four. I love the man’s music, but I wish people would talk more about the hell that he put Mayte Garcia through.

Rebel Wilson

Rebel Wilson

My brother is a d-tier actor in Australia. Has worked with Rebel Wilson a fair bit. Said she’s the most unpleasant person he’s ever encountered. Makes everyone treat her like an absolute diva and runs through assistants like Epstein through massages. I didn’t have an opinion about her before he told me but it’s not an uncommon sentiment in the acting world.

She had a body double for a film they were both in. She lost a bunch of weight before filming and became really opinionated about having somebody who accurately represented her idea of her body. She finally settled on somebody (this is usually the role of the casting crew based on your height and weight but she insisted she had final say). The body double showed up on set and Rebel decided the woman had put on weight between casting and filming. She grabbed the poor woman’s hips and stomach on the set and yelled at the casting crew for bringing “a hippopotamus on set” to represent her.

Read up on the FK Twigs thing and it sounds like he might be a narcissist: meet someone with all the traits they lack who is successful and popular, love bomb them (over the top romancing): isolate, break them down so they don't know which way is up and keep it up til they've got everything they need from the abused then discard them. She's lucky she had independent finances and was able to get out, many don't. Abuse isn't always physical.

Lea Michele

I got pretty into the TV show Glee in 2020 and I didn't know most of the cast beforehand, so It's not like I was a fan of anyone, but after I heard about Lea Michele's ugly behavior I was truly appalled. I don't know how anyone can support her.

In a nutshell, she disrespected a ton of people she have worked with, ever since she was a little girl. She threatened to fire people, belittled the staff, called them cockroaches, told a coworker she would "sh*t in her wig" and other nasty things. Shame, since she's a talented singer.
