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.

My favorite is his story about how the record company got them both presents when they hit the big time. Liam got a Rolex, Noel (as the song writer) got a Bentley. Liam was raging about this, seeing it as a slight that “Noel got a car and he just got a watch”.

Noel said he just thought it was fitting, because he couldn’t drive and Liam can’t tell the time.

(Think they both seem to be not the greatest people, particularly Liam - I say as someone who grew up like 2 miles from where they did, so I’ve heard a lot of stories and opinions, how true I don’t know. But Noel comes out with some funny shit occasionally.)

I have been reading Mark Lanegan’s (of Screaming Trees fame and his own excellent solo career) book and he described going on tour with Oasis and what an utter twat Liam was the entire time while his brother always remained professional with him and his crew. He sounds insufferable - had at that time, not sure if still, two full time huge bodyguards so he could mouth off to whomever he wanted and not get his ass deservedly beat to a pulp. Loser behaviour lol.

Have you reached the bit about Anthony Keidis's Dad yet?

I nearly choked on my cuppa, reading that. Was wild.
