Friday Timewaster

January 17, 2003 7:09 AM

Have you ever pondered just how annoying Mick Hucknall is? and who you might consider to be more annoying than the Simply Red Frontman? Here's a chance to let off some steam with some bar room style rants about the most irritating celebs doing the circuit. There are some fairly obvious one's here and here and some threads that don't do much for Anglo-American relations here. A nice way to waste a Friday afternoon - provided you're not offended by the language

Hey I dig Stars...

Don't hate the player, hate the fame.

There's a site dedicated to how annoying certain celebrities are.. it's a bit like AmIHotOrNot. See Am I Annoying.com

Who was the most annoying of 2002? Why.. Martha Stewart of course! I am very sad that the lovely Ainsley Harriott came second though.

Erm, I completely forgot to mention in the title that it's a rather amusing example of cybersquatting as well....

A couple of months ago I bothered to download some 80s era Simply Red songs. My wife berated me for including the music in my playlist, due to Mick's public statements. I, however, still like the music, and am continuing to ignore the person behind the scenes.

I like Simply Red. Can anyone post a URL which contains Mick's public statements? I'm not sure what the fuss is all about.

The Dell Kid is the most annoying....to quote Maxim, I believe, "If you skinned him, he'd still make an annoying rug".

The Alec Baldwin entry is not anywhere near long enough.
