Who is a jerk in hollywood

Things on set are also pretty bad because of course they are. Ex-managers have come out to say that Depp feels like he doesn't have to learn his lines anymore, which is absolutely the one thing an actor should be doing.

Some of this may be because he's worked extensively with Tim Burton who gives him creative freedom , but that doesn't excuse not working with other directors who put a lot of effort into their films. Josh Duhamel may star in a lot of rom-coms, but the rumors all point to him being a less-than-stellar husband. Maybe they've infected his mind at this point. He supposedly cheated on his wife, Fergie, while they were together.

Why anyone would want to disrespect those humps like that is beyond us, but apparently thought he could do better than Fergie. It shouldn't come as a surprise to learn that this marriage ended in divorce. To add to this, Duhamel also is rude to strangers, which at least is a step up from being rude to loved ones. During a flight, he refused to turn off his BlackBerry despite warnings from the flight attendants. After a lengthy delay, he was escorted off the plane, to the relief of everyone involved.

It's about time that celebs learn you can't break the rules just because you're rich and famous. Well, technically you can, but you can't be this brazen about it.

Why are the funniest guys always the meanest too? Why just two? Don't worry about it--freakouts rarely make any sense. He also makes his private assistant stand in his parking spot to ensure no one else parks there—other than him, of course. You would think that someone as famous as him would have a better system than this. The user explained how Stiller fired one employee because he thought there wasn't enough sugar in his coffee.

The man is clearly particular about his drinks. She might be a decent actor, but she's really going to have to up her game if she wants to engage in diva behavior. You can only get away with that if you're one of the biggest and best of Hollywood, which she certainly is not. She dodges fans to avoid being bombarded, which is understandable. One time, she cut in line to see an exhibit when other people had been waiting four to five hours.

The least she could have done was have someone stand in line for her! You've got to think these things through, Liv! After the guard refused to let her in way to go guard! That might be disappointing to hear, but it's par for the course when it comes to Hollywood stars and their bad behavior.

Zeta-Jones is known for not tipping at restaurants, despite being worth millions. One Reddit user explained, " I used to work at Mandalay Bay in and she expected you to wait hand and foot on her and then zero tip for anything you did. An oversight is one thing as we understand that it happens with celebrities, but not to this extent. Catherine Zeta-Jones also shuts down gyms at hotels so that she can use them in privacy.

God forbid any plebians see Empress Zeta-Jones sweat! This even happened at a condo, which is really a step up in terms of nutty behavior. None of the tenants could use it the whole time she stayed, which hopefully resulted in plenty of angry letters to the condo board.

How can you shut down someone's home like that? That's a new kind of awful. Before being fired from Two and a Half Men in because of his erratic behavior, Charlie Sheen was the highest-paid actor on television. It's always the highest that falls the hardest. Apparently, they were not pleased with his bracket. He's also known for destructive tendencies, drug addiction, bad-mouthing other celebrities, and mistreating his romantic partners.

This includes former wife, Denise Richards, who would eventually divorce him because of drug and abuse allegations. She also accused him of looking at gay porn, and while that in itself might not be jerk behavior, it did provide a fun, bizarre wrinkle in the public breakdown of their marriage.

While filing a restraining order, his third wife wrote that "I am very concerned that [Sheen] is currently insane. Bones and Buffy fans might not want to hear it, but David Boreanaz is allegedly not the nicest guy to work with. But after reading this list, is there anyone in Hollywood that is actually fun to work with? He has a history of being rude to crew members, which is the icing on the jerk cake. He was also sued for sexual harassment by an extra on the set of Bones, but the case against him was eventually dismissed.

In addition to his on-set troubles, Boreanaz hasn't been a great guy in his love life, either. He admitted to cheating on his wife, Jamie Bergman, who was pregnant at the time. Something tells me he won't be winning father of the year any time soon. In a really odd twist, the woman he was cheating with was the same woman that was allegedly one of Tiger Wood's mistresses as well. I hope Woods wasn't too devastated.

Music, movies, TV—Christina Aguilera has done a little of everything that Hollywood has to offer, and fans have loved her for decades. It's a disappointing development, but it's not particularly surprising. Fame and jerky behavior seem to go hand in hand, no matter how much we wish it wasn't true, and Xtina is no exception to this rule. On-set rumors swirled when she announced her departure from The Voice , and several of her fellow judges allegedly couldn't stand working with her.

No one genuinely expects a reality show star to behave like Mother Teresa, but Laguna Beach cast member Kristin Cavallari could probably stand to improve her behavior more than a little bit. Apparently, she has a problem interacting with her fans, which is one of the few things that's actually expected of a celebrity. These people look up to you and all you can manage to do is bite their heads off?

Not a great look in a business that's all about fans. Apparently, she once teased a fan behind their back after they asked for an autograph. He can't find a single person to say a good word about him these days, but it's shocking that it took so long for his facade to crumble and his fans to scatter. The paternal persona that he had created for himself made the allegations against him all the more shocking. At this point, Cosby has been accused of sexual assault by more than 60 women, with some of their stories dating all the way back to the s.

Justice may not be perfect, but it seems like he's finally getting a little bit of what he deserved--even if he deserves much worse. In , he was convicted of three counts and sentenced to up to ten years in prison. That's a start, we guess. Sparkly vampires might not be everyone's cup of tea, but a job is a job--even in Hollywood. That being said, it's behind the scenes where her most audacious behavior seems to pop up.

If there's one thing that actors are good at, it's putting up a deceptive mask when the cameras are rolling and dropping it immediately once the director calls cut. No one wants to work with someone that's just a bundle of negativity, but it appears that Stewart just can't seem to internalize the message.

She also cheated on her then-boyfriend, Robert Pattinson, with the director of the films they were starring in. If that doesn't cause some on-set awkwardness, we don't know what would! All in all, things aren't going great for her.

Joseph Gordon-Levitt might not be a jerk these days, but even the actor himself admitted that he had his moments in the past. I thought girls my age were very frustrating. I was in danger of becoming a hopeless ivory-tower douchebag. It's sort of what teenagers are best at, and hopefully, no one will seriously hold his younger days and questionable behavior against him.

Most of us are a little mortified at how we used to act when we were younger. That's what really counts, isn't it? Audiences may have loved '90s action star Val Kilmer, and who can blame them?

The guy could kick butt. But people behind the scenes had their fair share of Kilmer horror stories. But that's just the opinion of one person, isn't it? It may be, but Schumacher is far from the only person dishing on Kilmer's bad behavior on set. Another director, John Frankenheimer, went on record with a little Kilmer bashing himself and had this to say after working with Kilmer on The Island of Dr.

Frankenheimer pulled no punches, and we don't doubt that he was telling the truth. However, it looks like all the fame eventually went to his head, as it always seems to do to actors. Maybe creating an industry where we pump lots of fame and money into individuals wasn't a great thing after all.

It clearly didn't do any favors for Snipes. In isolation, the post-it notes thing might be a little funny and quirky, but hits different when coupled with his apparent murder attempt on the director. That's the one person on set that you definitely don't want to strangle! Unfortunately for her and her aspirations, she wasn't famous enough to weather the controversy unscathed.

Her career took a definite hit after stories about her began to be made public. In , it came to light that she was cheating on her then-husband, Dennis Quaid, with her Proof of Life co-star Russell Crowe—who also made this list! Hollywood truly is like a small town full of terrible people. Her career has suffered ever since, and rumors of trouble on-set have continued to haunt her even when she does land a role.

She has a habit of acting entitled, even though her best days are far behind her. It's too late for that kind of behavior! Even though she was the star, Sarah Michelle Gellar made no attempt to hide her hatred for several of the storylines in Buffy the Vampire Slayer. Strangely, show creator Joss Whedon didn't take too kindly to her badmouthing her own role. This, coupled with the fact that she surprised cast and crew with her announcement she was leaving the show after season seven, led to lots of on-set drama--especially between Gellar and co-star Alyson Hannigan.

Additionally, some have criticized her controlling approach with husband Freddy Prinze, Jr. She allegedly cut his former friends out of his life after the couple was married in That's definitely a sign of a healthy and totally normal relationship.

One friend even alleges that Gellar herself called to inform them that their friendship with Prinze was over. That being said, the two are still married, so maybe Prinze Jr. Kiefer Sutherland. Jesse James. William Shatner. Gwyneth Paltrow. Reese Witherspoon. Tommy Lee Jones. Terrence Howard. Katherine Heigl. Edward Norton. Christian Bale. Zooey Deschanel. Lucille Ball. Shia LaBeouf. Mike Myers.

Chevy Chase. Julia Roberts. Sandra Bullock. Tom Cruise. Patrick Dempsey. Ellen DeGeneres. Jonah Hill. But when Murray wants to be, he can lay the jerk down as thick as anyone. Take Phil Connors in Groundhog Day , for example, the weatherman who at the beginning of the movie uses his superpower to trick women into bedding down with him, but by the end of the movie is the kind of guy who really has to figure out a women before he can get her to bed down.

Even Steve Zissou comes around in the end. Though he seems to be a really sweet guy when you talk to him, there's no doubt Schwartzman has a proclivity for prickliness. But hey, sometimes it just takes a jerk to get things done, to shape minds, to challenge our views.

Either way, he was a tough guy to like initially. As was the titular Philip in Listen Up Philip , which is basically a study in how far you can push your protagonist to the objectionable extreme and still have your audience stay with a film. Another one of those phenomenal actors who can do anything. And sometimes that means playing despicable, horrible, no good, very-bad people.

Indeed, Spacey has shown quite the penchant for playing horrible bosses, in films or TV shows that are pretty much about horrible bosses, the most obvious being Horrible Bosses. Here's a guy that was such a big jerk, that even when he was on your side, he was a jerk, as he showed countless times as the aforementioned Ari Gold on Entourage , the agent with the mouth that spat worse words than many of us knew existed. Unfortunately, he got out of that dumpster.

There have been so many wonderfully plump jerk roles in Hollywood history, many of which certain actors gravitate towards, for one reason or another. With so many jerks to choose from, we expect to see many arguments made below for who else should be on this list.
