Whether we like to admit it or not, our society is pretty obsessed with celebrity culture. Almost half (44%) of UK adults admit they spend too much time caring about celebrity gossip. What's more, 80% say they know more about celebrities' lives than about their own parents.
But you don't need to obsessively follow a celebrity to form an opinion about them. Sometimes, all you have to do is to meet them and you'll be able to immediately clock whether they're cool or mean. Recently, one netizen asked in an online thread, "Who is the worst celebrity you have ever met and why?"
And people didn't hesitate to spill the tea on the rudest and most entitled celebs they have personally met. Perhaps these experiences might squash the perfect image you've had in your head of some famous people?

Ezra Miller.
Ran into him at a bar in East Village. He was lurking watching my friends play pool..we didn’t know it was him yet. I offered him my turn because he looked like he wanted to play
Dude hits the pool ball so badly, takes the pool stick and messes up the entire table, picks up a ball and throws it down the hallway, then almost impales my friend with the pool stick before running away
Woman at the bar scoffed at the situation. Turns out she was an off duty bartender at the bar and he comes in and does stuff like that often
This was 2022/23ish.

Jennifer Lopez
If you happen to be a member of the staff working a venue she performs at you are not allowed to look at her and are supposed to physically turn away from her if possible (as of 2016 when this happened).

Gwyneth Paltrow. Rude. Obnoxious. Ungrateful.
Made the cast and crew wait hours for her. Lied about walking around in a fat suit during Shallow Hal.

Kris Jenner. The woman is a nightmare to work with. Kim had an attitude, but she knew what she wanted and could verbalize it without derailing into multiple unrelated tangents. Kylie was sweet. Started every conversation with "How are you and your kittens?".

My friend was a theater major at our Cal State school. They got the chance to go to the set of the Gilmore Girls for one of their directing classes, as apparently that episode's director was a friend of the teacher's. The director asked the cast if they wanted to have lunch with the students and Lauren Graham said "why would i want to have lunch with a bunch of nobodies?". She was not a nice person.

Mike Wolfe from American Pickers. He was in the same cemetery tour group as me in New Orleans. He kept rudely interrupting the tour guide demanding to be taken to the tomb from Easy Rider. The tour guide kept telling him we’d get there closer to the end of the tour but Mike Wolfe threw a hissy fit and was ruining the tour for the rest of us so the tour guide gave in, stopped our tour to take him to the tomb. His tantrum inconvenienced 10-12 other people and he couldn’t care less.

Christie Brinkley.
Unless you were one of the rich and/or famous, she'd treat you with sneering contempt for no reason at all. Absolutely the worst celebrity I've met, and I've met many.

I have bad luck with science guys I guess. Bill Nye was a total jerk on the plane in the seat next to mine. Just a miserable dude. Neil Degrass Tyson harassed my wife who was a bartender at a hotel so bad, that she had to have the cooks walk her out, and he was lurking in the banquet area when they did.

LeBron James. Nice enough but he doesn't tip. At all..Anywhere..The more offensive thing to me was he didn't want to pay 275 for a bottle of Grey Goose so he pulled a Karen and made me go and get the manager.
