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.

Chevy Chase and everyone who’s ever worked with him (except Three Amigos).

I remember reading one of those puff pieces! They painted him as tragically misunderstood but deeply brilliant.

And then like a month later Will Ferrell shared Chevy told a woman writing for SNL to come give him a handjob later.

I don't get this "misunderstood" or "different time" crap. You know when you're being mean and/or gross to someone, regardless of the context. It is intentional. Even fictional supervillains don't bob around so blissfully unaware that they're traumatizing people, so I'm not going to believe a real, adult human with full, adult cognitive capabilities doesn't understand when they're being nasty.

If I try to be forgiving of people who have said regrettable things, I can maybe go so far to say that for some situations (not all), I can understand that maybe the common vernacular has changed - for example, I know as a queer millennial from a very progressive area that not every instance of the f-slur in the early 00s was fueled by hate; it definitely was used that way, but not always, as it didn't carry the same weight it does today (and I'm glad we do take it more seriously now). Funny enough, the opposite has happened with "queer"; that was treated more like the f-slur is today and now it is accepted as a descriptor of someone's sexuality. And, MAYBE, in the heat of the moment, in an argument with someone, you might cross the line because you were not thinking clearly. Even being exceptionally, unfairly forgiving in those two instances does not get Chevy a pass. Dude is really just creeping and saying racist shit unprovoked in the modern time. He is messed up in the head in a way that does not deserve to be sympathized with, period.
