Megan Fox
No one can deny that Megan Fox always looks stunning on the big screen, and due to this, she has attracted a lot of traction from people, with some even describing her as a goddess on screen.
However, individuals who have directly interacted with her in real life somehow beg to differ and she has been known to sometimes challenge the director’s decisions, leading to friction on set( including the set of "Transformers"). This tension has made working with her difficult for other people as it can be destructive and mentally taxing thus complicating everyone’s professional lives.
Blake Lively
While many people adore Blake Lively's on-screen presence, reports indicate that she can be quite particular about her roles and how they are presented. This can be very difficult for everyone on set as it requires all the other things in the script to change so that she gets what she wants.
It is alleged that during the filming of "Gossip Girl," she got into it with writers as she wanted to make changes and specific requests over and over again, causing tension. The pressure involved with keeping up with this can create a stressful environment for those collaborating with her, making it a difficult task. Bet you didn’t think she’d make the list did you, unlike this next obvious entry.
Lizzo
Many people know Lizzo for her powerhouse voice and her advocacy for body positivity but unknown to many is how she can be very difficult to work with, especially under stressful situations.
Reports suggest that during her 2019 tour, she had too grand of a vision for her shows that many people ended up being burnt out and involved in confrontations with her, making it hard to work with her. This can be regarded as a case of transference where the stresses of celebrities are passed on to cast members, leaving them feeling stressed, demotivated, and ready to quit. Perhaps she learned the art of frustrating crew members from this next person.
Bill Murray
Bill Murray is a comedy legend and all his fans, because of this, would expect him to have a fun personality in his real life and not onset only. However, this is not the case for him. He has been reported to have a difficult personality due to his unpredictability. On one occasion, during the filming of the popular "Lost in Translation," he was even said to have disappeared for hours, leaving the crew members very displeased.
This behavior can be very difficult to take, especially in the film industry, which thrives on order, structure, and routine so that deadlines can be met in time. Therefore, working with Bill Murray has been said to be a very difficult task. I mean, if you were the producer for one of his movies and this happened, would you still be fan-balling over him?
John Mayer
This talented music mogul is loved and celebrated for his music by many. However, behind the scenes, many people are displeased with his inability to hold his tongue, making him a difficult character to work with. His strong opinions and lack of a filter have led to uncomfortable situations in the studio, causing tension between him and his other band members.
This need to speak about everything and anything that has made other singers feel overshadowed, unprioritized, and somewhat ridiculed. This is a strong reminder that regardless of what we may think, we still need to be delicate in expressing ourselves as this can hurt the people around us, making us unbearable to be around. Talking about being unbearable, ever heard of this next guy?
Bruce Willis
If you keep up with the Hollywood scene, then it is obvious that you know how this icon has contributed so much to the Hollywood scene through his impeccable acting skills. However, this doesn't make him any easier to work with as he has been known to impose his standards on other people also due to his very high demands. Even during the filming of the flawless “Die Hard,” crew members aired out their frustrations due to his alpha character and impositions.
This pressure of working with him has created quite a challenging atmosphere when it comes to working with him, which has somewhat made it less exciting for those who know him and have been around him. As bad as Willis can be, he doesn’t hold a candle to this next person.
Steven Seagal
This skilled martial arts actor, who has featured in many action-packed movies, isn't an exception when it comes to making life hard for the people he works with. Similar to Bruce Wills, he is said to have an alpha complex and requires things to be done a certain way that he likes, regardless of everyone else’s views and opinions.
An example of this is the clash that he allegedly had with directors on the feature “On Deadly Ground,” which led to a very tense atmosphere during its filming. This lack of collaboration somewhat drains everyone, making it very dreadful to work with him due to his difficult nature.
Jennifer Aniston
Growing up, I'm sure everyone wishes they had direct contact with their favorite celebrities. Whether it was just sitting next to them or getting the chance to just work for or with them and gaze on all their glory in a front row sit position ( maybe you still wish for that ). This could be the case for several people who have tried working with different celebrities only to find themselves frequently stressed or quitting because it wasn't as flowery as they pictured in their brains. You see, some celebrities are known to be very difficult to work with regardless of their looking all friendly on the big screen. Here is a list of 10 celebrities who are famous for being monsters off-screen.
With the way that Jeniffer Aniston radiates warmth and charm on-screen, I’m sure you are struck as to how she could be part of this list of difficult celebrities. Well, reports from different sets claim that she has a different character in person. Many crew members have spoken out about how she can be quite demanding, expecting perfection from everyone around her, which has been, in some instances, so unsettling that it caused tension on the set. This pressure that is caused by her perfectionism on set has made it difficult to work with her, as alleged by many people, as it can create a stressful atmosphere. However, despite all these allegations, we can't take away how talented she is and regardless of her being difficult to work with, many film producers are still hunting for her as she is good at what she does. So maybe fix the attitude, Jen, we still love you!
Lindsay Lohan
For actors like Lindsay Lohan, her reputation for being difficult to work with is well-established and it is not a secret among celebrities and fans who follow the different blog posts about celebrities. She has been said to be an unpredictable individual who has intense mood swings and can sometimes even arrive on set late and unfocused, making it difficult for all the other crew members.
Many co-stars who have worked with this have confirmed this behavioral shift, and because of this, her behavior sometimes ends up overshadowing her talent. All of these difficulties probably stem from her problems ranging from legal troubles, substance abuse issues, mental health issues, and tumultuous family and friendship relationships. This is a classic case of personal life problems messing up with your professional life. Yikes! Still she has nothing on the next person our list.
Kanye West
Kanye West is not new to the scene of controversies despite his immense talent and creativity. Many find that working with him can be notoriously difficult as he is strongly opinionated, unpredictable, and at some point even rants at crew members, leaving them on edge and downtrodden.
Countless people have mentioned how working with him is high risk as you never know what will trigger his outbursts, making this work environment extremely stressful. So, given the chance, would you risk your mental and emotional health to work with this legend for a day, or would you prefer to enjoy him from afar? I think I know your answer…
