This is a question Celebrities part II

Five years ago, we asked if you've ever been rude to a celebrity, or have been on the receiving end of a Z-List TV chef's wrath. By popular demand, it's back - if you have beans, spill them.

Theatre Life
My job as a marketing assistant in a theatre means I meet various celebrities and for some reason it’s always the soap stars and has beens that are the biggest pain in the arse. I have been lucky enough to meet some lovely people and Sean Lock, Dara O’Briain, Jimmy Carr and The Proclaimers were all charming and down to earth, The Chuckle Brothers were also great ... although they do look even more like paedophiles in real life than they do on Television.

One person that was truly dreadful was an ex-Emmerdale star who appeared in panto at the theatre a couple of Christmases ago. She was rude to everyone, arrogant and demanding. At one point we received the souvenir brochures and I had to take them round all the dressing rooms for the performers to see, after knocking on her door she yelled “come in” and once inside I was confronted with her in her underwear barking orders at her assistant. She took one look at the brochure and threw in on the floor and demanded I fetch her some coffee, even though it wasn’t my job to bring her coffee I did have someone take a cup to her, she thanked me for this by demanding I was fired.

She did this with pretty much every member of staff for the entire run of the panto, one night blaming the stage door security for the fact no one had asked her for an autograph once during the panto’s run and demanding they were fired.

I don’t know why the c-list, soap star celebrities are the worst but they always are, this years panto stars Lisa Riley and I’m hoping she will be less of a nightmare to deal with.

Oh and Phill Jupitus appeared at the theatre in March and he was one of the biggest pricks I’ve ever met, Marcus Brigstocke was on the same bill and was lovely.
