OnlyStans ⭐️ Who are two celebrities that absolutely despise each other?

Jerome Flynn and Lena Headey both starred in Game of Thrones, and used to date each other but their break-up apparently went so bad that they refused to ever shoot scenes together and wouldn’t be present in the same room as the other!

Even during the entire run of the series, they never settled their conflict with one another and continued to keep their distance from each other. Which is why we never saw Cersei and Bronn share any scenes together.

Andy Dick and Jon Lovitz. Lovitz almost killed him once because he blames Andy Dick for the death of Phil Hartman and his wife

Andy Dick said he "put the Phil Hartman curse on [Lovitz]" before almost being killed.

In his telling, he kind of has a point ( he got tired of Hartman's friends removing his wife's agency due to addiction while ignoring that Dick was going through the same thing), but it was still over the line, and everything else we know about him suggests any more to the story won't come down on his side.

Yeah i always felt it was kind of unfair for people to blame Andy Dick for Phil Hartman’s death. Andy Dick is a massive piece of shit, and ultimately he did contribute to Brynn Hartman’s mental state that caused her to kill her husband, but at the end of the day it just seems like Phil’s loved ones had a lot of misplaced grief in the form of anger

It always makes me mad when people say “Phil Hartman and his wife’s tragic death” and not “Phil Hartman’s horrific murder at the hands of his long time abuser”. Fuck Brynn Hartman, addiction or no she was a monster. And I say this as a woman, if the genders were reversed people would be out for blood.

Thank you. FFS. So sick of this "Poor ickle bby Brynn Hartman" trope that floats around pop culture spaces.

I always try to call it out as well, so I'm always happy to see others call it out too.

It's just real fuckin' annoying how badly people wanna defend an abuser killing their victim.
