The conversation starts with one simple question and quickly turns into a long list of surprising names, from actors and musicians to TV personalities and athletes. A few replies are blunt, a few are funny, and some are so unexpected they practically invite a second look.

That answer takes the thread in a more serious direction.

Also, Alan Cumming called the BAFTAs “trauma triggering” after the racial slur.

"In fantasy, what we love and what we hate can get very, very close, because it's just about strong, intense feelings that don't really have much of a frame around them."

19. Jimmy Savile

This grandmother had some good instincts. Sir James Wilson Vincent Savile was an English DJ, television, and radio personality who hosted BBC shows.

He raised an estimated $50 million for charities during his lifetime. He was widely praised for his personal qualities and as a fundraiser.

After his death in 2011, hundreds of allegations of sexual abuse were made against him, leading the police to conclude that he had been a predatory sex offender and possibly one of Britain's most prolific. There had been allegations during his lifetime, but they were dismissed, and accusers were ignored or disbelieved.

Savile took legal action against some accusers.

And then the thread circles back to why people react so strongly in the first place.

"It may be a reason they don't want to admit to themselves, but there is a reason for it. Celebrities signify things. They stand for certain values, certain assumptions that we make about them as people, and when we don't like what those celebrities signify, that's when we inherently blame the celebrity themselves and say, 'Oh, I hate that person because they don't align with my values.'"

So, why do you hate the celebs you hate?
