Universally Loved Celebrities That Some People Actually Hate
You would probably be surprised by some of their answers.
Today, pop culture is full of famous people who have the admiration of young people wrapped around their fingers all over the world. These celebrities are generally known for their popular and outstanding work in their respective industries—be it in film, music, sports, or fashion.
However, there is always a fine line between being famous and actually receiving universal praise. Celebrities might be famous, but only a few are genuinely universally loved.
Everyone seems to adore these celebrities, except perhaps for those small groups of haters, and the world just can't get enough of hearing about their projects and all the other things they do. Nevertheless, some people look past those positive aspects and still feel a sense of discomfort when they see them.
A celebrity can be disliked for various reasons: the star may be perceived as too arrogant and not humble enough, they might seem superficial and self-absorbed, or simply shallow. Some people dislike them just because they don't resonate with their aura.
When a user under the handle u/PythonButSnake asked this question in r/AskReddit: "What is a universally loved celebrity that you don't like?" the people of Reddit delivered and surprised us with their answers (though some were not so surprising). It's easy to see why these celebrities are loved by the general public, but for some reason, they just didn't appeal to these individuals.
Take a look at the highlights of the comments in the post below!
First one on our list: Brendan Fraser.
RedditSome would say he's too conservative.

Keanu Reeves, Betty White, AND Bob Ross? What happened to humanity?
He definitely struck a nerve with this comment, so he further explained why he disliked these three celebrities. He proceeded to say that Keanu Reeves is a bland actor, and Betty White falls into the category of "horny old woman who says unfunny things."
Even though this person was not impressed by their skills and talents in their respective fields, he defended his opinion by stating that he's sure they are all lovely people in reality.
He also mentioned that he finds Bob Ross cringeworthy. Bless him.

A lot of people would probably disagree with those mentioned in this list, but hey, not everyone can see their charm, and that's perfectly okay! What's never okay is hatefully bashing someone simply because you don't like them.
