"Ellen Degeneres is a bona fide b*tch. Incredibly rude, my Uncle worked with her(he's an architect) on some project and she treated her help like total cr*p. I couldn't believe it at the time, but I've heard similar accounts of her bad behavior over the years."
The professor explained that this tension between celebrities’ imagined ordinariness and extraordinariness seems to drive much of this fascination. “Because of their intense visibility, celebrities become almost like mirrors for their audiences who look for their own images in them; sometimes audiences see idealized versions of themselves in celebrities or versions to which they aspire.”King continued: “Other times, comparisons to celebrities can leave fans feeling inferior. That sense of imagining or defining ourselves in relation to public figures, whether we find it pleasurable or painful, is a big part of much celebrity fandom.”

What’s also interesting about celebrity culture is that famous people also have a great deal of presence in people’s everyday lives—in film and television, on magazine covers and advertisements, and across social media. “And yet,” King states, “most people never actually come into contact with celebrities and experience them at a distance or only virtually.”In this way, they are visible to us but almost always out of reach. “This tension between presence and absence also seems to drive people’s desire for celebrities,” she explained.

#4 Keith Urban
My dad is a pilot and he frequently deals with celebrities. His company has all the staff sign NDAs, but my dad usually doesn't even know who the celebrities are unless they've been in the news. He said that Nicole Kidman and Keith Urban are incredibly rude to their own staff. Personal assistants were terrified of them. - trolldoll26#5 Katie Price

ANYWAY,
One day she had a British "celebrity" called Katie Price onboard. Ms. Price is famous for... umm.. having boobs and falling out of various bars, I think.
So, Ms. Price comes on board, spots Dolly, and proceeds to spend five minutes listing her demands for the flight - namely that she should have total privacy, that anyone coming near her should be escorted away, and that no crew approaches her unless she calls them, and that Dolly herself would be held responsible if she was bothered at all, heads would roll, etc..
Dolly waited for her to finish her demands and then said "Certainly madam. And you are.......?"
tl;dr No name "celebrity" makes OTT demands on the plane, gets cut down to size by an elderly Northern lady. - [deleted]
#6 Tyra Banks

She comes into town for an ANTM cattle call. Demands we repaint the office she was going to use (for three days) makes our pregnant programming director cry, flips her shot and tries to get me fired when I wouldn’t get her bottled water.
My response was “have one of your people get it, I have to get back to the board, commercial break is up in 40 seconds.”
On the opposite side, Ashton Kutcher and Mila Kunis are two of the nicest celebrities I’ve ever had the pleasure of meeting.
We had just gotten “that 70’s show” in syndication and they came out for promo shoots. Super friendly. - Phantom_61
#7 Jim Belushi
Years ago, we kids waited for Jim Belushi and John Candy after they shot Only the Lonely in Chicago. I asked Belushi for an autograph, and he literally called us a bunch of pieces of sh*t, stupid kids, and to get the F out of there. Then came Candy with a big old smile and cigar hanging out of his mouth, and he spent the next 10 minutes signing autographs and thanking all his fans. - urboy23#8 Hugh Jackman

However, the other actors didn't care about that. The NICEST ones by FAR were Hugh Jackman and James McAvoy for what I saw.
For McAvoy, one of my friends was one of the extras right behind him in a scene and we were shooting 14 hours a day in cooking 40 degrees enclosed green screen bordered set in bright sunlight. We were running in high heels and wearing winter jackets... Basically a hellish day. And we couldn't sit anywhere! Well, McAvoy saw my friend wasn't doing right and he let her sit in Professor X's chair and have a bit of his water bottle. And with that said, the dude would just talk and chit-chat with everybody, despite the very strict non-conversation with actors contract we signed. He's just so chill.
Hugh Jackman literally signed autographs in between shots and high-fived a bunch of people all the time.
Michael Fassbender told all set workers passing by him after a very long day of work battling in water to have a nice day. I was a huge fan of his at the time and it made my whole year at that point.
F*ckin Peter Dinklage was dancing disco during the heatwave day to cheer people up.

Snoop dog was cool. He left a bunch of booze and weed behind in his suite. The housekeepers got a bunch of top-shelf hootch and weed after he left.

Around 1998, Julia Roberts and Benjamin Bratt stole a cab from me and my girl on a really cold winter day in the West Village, NYC. They were laughing as they drove by, and we both gave them a perfectly synchronized middle finger, which was fun. - [deleted]

He pretended people weren't there until they paid his manager fifty bucks.
My wife's parting shot as we walked away? "Loved your work on Celebrity Rehab."

#18 John Mayer

John Mayer is a whiney man-child that just wants to smoke weed and watch South Park and play Call of Duty all day. Met him at an awards show thing about 10 years ago. WOULD NOT STOP quoting some sexist joke from South Park. Everybody around was just laughing awkwardly because it was weird. Also, every word out of his mouth was a sarcastic joke, but like a MEAN sarcastic joke about somebody that I was supposed to find funny. But they weren't funny. They were just weird. And mean. Got mad at me and called me a butthead when I didn't laugh.

I met him at a Walgreens Pharmacy in San Antonio. I was trying to get batteries but he was getting batteries too. He was in my way.
So I said “excuse me, could I just get through really quick-”
He stopped me mid-sentence and said “Nah, I don’t take pictures. Just let me do what I gotta do.”
“My bad. I’m just trying to “.
“Hey, look. I don’t want to take pictures right now so just stop.”
He left.
I got my batteries.

We didn't even realize who she was till they were walking away. She should really be careful who she talks to like that, someone might actually go for the punch.

Same-store - Tyler Perry said he would “buy me and sell me” after I told him that the OnField 5950 Yankee hat was dark navy blue and not black - even though he demanded a “black Yankees hat like they wear on the field”.
Snoop Dogg, Michael Vick, Terrell Owens (esp Terrell Owens, and Birdman were cool as f*ck.
