Women we love to hate
Some women bring out the bitch in all of us, and although men like to reduce our bitchiness to a dislike of any woman who is skinny and gorgeous, it is far subtler than that. Here are our top eight celebrity women we love to hate, and our reasons why
Nicole Kidman The Let-Down Catherine Zeta Jones The Bigmouth Gwyneth Paltrow The Snob Liz Hurley The Phoney Jennifer Lopez The Egotist Naomi Campbell The Psycho Victoria Beckham The Wannabe Madonna The Fanatic Sod girl power, what women really enjoy is rolling their eyes in disbelief as they witness some jumped-up tart fall out of a dress, or a supposedly intelligent beauty profess undying love for a clearly hopeless dud of a man.
To be loathed by your fellow sisters you have to possess a complex formula of irritating character traits that make it impossible for women to root for you. Men will look on bemused, hoodwinked by a pair of fake breasts or a demure smile, but we can see through it all.
All these women have one thing in common, plenty of success - after all, there is absolutely no fun to be had in savaging a dead sheep (Whitney Houston is successful and obnoxious but predominantly sad).
These infuriating women owe a proportion of their fame to their ability to provoke. The bitch or the cow is staple fodder for today's celebrity culture. They put meat on the bones of gossip columns and celebrity rags.
There are plenty of fabulous female stars whom women are either indifferent to or actually like. Gorgeous babes like Uma Thurman, Michelle Pfeiffer, Charlize Theron, and Cate Blanchett, who possess qualities like humility, discretion, intelligence, and class. We will even give props to 'It' girls with no talent if they have a sense of humour and don't pretend to be something they are not.
So sit back, latte in hand, and enjoy a good bitch fest.

Seriously? You hate Nicole Kidman cause she doesn't look like she is twenty anylonger and you think she didn't divorce right? And an artist wouldn't pose for Chane? You know this because Russell Crow says so? I happen to think Karl Laugerfeld is an awesome hoot and thats really stupid. Don't tell Russell.
Liz Hurley isn't telling you everything? Um, should she? Do you know her or something?
Christ Lady. You are an insult to women. If you really want someone to hate try our first lady with her constant hate of our country and kitten heels. If you need someone to hate. I thought this would be funny, but actually, I feel sort of sick after reading this. Sure, I get bitchy about people. I did cringe when Princess Diana batted her bambi eyes at everyone. But Im sort of seeing its gross. Thanks for curing me.
You should add Kimora Simons. Ive unfortunately seen her reality show 'Life in the Fab Lane' and if she's being herself... she's the most obnoxious b-tch I've ever seen. She also seems very hard to work with. She's probably constantly firing people. She comes off as a 'toxic boss.' Also that older model who is a brunette... she's the one who claims to be the 'first super model ever'.... she's also irritating as h-ll.
Just to be fair though, I'll mention who I like... Cindy Crawford, Julia Roberts, Lucy Lou, Angela Bassett, Sandra Bullock, Jennifer Aniston etc...
Correction:
Whitney Huston WAS successfull and IS STILL Obnoxious, but now is predominately sad.
She once was Successfull. Now she's just the butt of jokes and unfortunately, a victim of domestic violence thanks to her equally washed up husband, Bobby Brown (ex actually???)
