What a list actors/ actresses are notorious for being jerks in real life?
Last Updated: 03.07.2025 07:36
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.
Borderline
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.
Harrison Ford - can be a right grumpy bastard if he’s not enthusiastic about the film he’s in, especially round inexperienced actors.
Joseph Gordon-Levitt - he seems to have mellowed out, but he himself has owned up to being a snobby douchebag when younger.
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….
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.
Teri Hatcher -mean to everyone she works with, turns up late often
Patrick Dempsey - acted like a diva on the set of Grey’s Anatomy. Got himself written out of the show because of it.
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.
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.
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.
'Call of Duty: Black Ops 7' to Star Milo Ventimiglia, Kiernan Shipka - Variety
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.
Mike Myers - a narcissistic a-hole, the kind who fires people for making eye contact with him.
Tommy Lee Jones - miserable bastard, gets into a huff at the slightest thing, total wanker.
Iusto et ipsum nesciunt est qui.
Kristen Stewart - sulky moody brat, cheated on R-Patz with one of her directors
O J Simpson - framed of course by some “Puerto Rican guy” ;)
Steven Seagal - assaults stuntmen, has a habit of molesting female co-stars, sleazy bastard, and difficult to work with.
Dotemu’s CEO on how it makes new games that feel retro - The Verge
Jared Leto - mistakes method acting with being an obnoxious dickhead. Rude to fans.
Christian Bale - infamous for tantrums, and rages
Sarah Jessica Parker - it seems she only ever had issues with co-stars, she’s happier talking to fans despite having issues with shyness.
Shia LaBeouf - beats on his girlfriends. Plagiarized a script.
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.
Kiefer Sutherland - a good number of fellow actors have come out berating his behaviour on-set. Alcoholism probably doesn’t help…
Harvey Weinstein Was Abused, Defense Says in Retrial Closing Argument - Variety
others known for being c-nts: Mickey Rooney, Henry Fonda, Faye Dunaway, Jon Voight, Burt Reynolds, Steve McQueen, Jean-Claude Van Damme
Bill Murray - rude miserable c-nt.
Kirsty Alley - another Scientologist, she insulted a friend that left the looney cult, and made some quip, many have refused to act with her.
What should be done after the attack on Donald Trump to abandon vicious partisan rhetoric?
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.
Mel Gibson - sexist, racist, abusive prick.
Richard Burton - notorious drunk. Picked the wrong man to get into a fight with once: Lee Marvin.
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.
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.
Meg Ryan - self-entitled bitch, gets snippety in interviews for no reason, cheated on Dennis Quaid with Russell Crowe

Jonah Hill - tends to get uppity in interviews. Grumpy bastard.
Josh Duhamel - cheated on Fergie, rude to strangers, got himself kicked off a plane
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.
David Boreanaz - a cheat in his relationships, abusive to others, once accused of sexual harrassment
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.
Sylvester Stallone - another one “deerrrnt look at me”, massive entitled dickhead.
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.
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.
Liv Tyler - ducks fans wanting autographs, cuts in lines and throws a hissy fit when not allowed in] places
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.
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.
Charlie Sheen - a complete fruitcake, abusive, sexist, drug addict, apparently addicted to gay porn too
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.
Edward Norton - notorious to work with, its all me me me, and will rewrite scripts to suit his own needs.
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.
Jennifer Lawrence - mean to fans,, self-entitled spoiled brat.
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.
Jan Michael Vincent - the Airwolf star was a wife-beater, drug and boozehound. Once punched a girlfriend so hard he broke his wrist.
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.
