Actors you can't stand

Is there an actor you can't stand? Something about their name, look or acting that bothers you? Does their voice drive you up a wall? Can't find the remote fast enough when a movie/show/commercial starring them comes on? Post it here.

For me, it's Martin Lawrence. After Martin, I can't watch anything with him. I don't find him funny anymore. He looks kinda pervy to me

my BFF HATES Charlie Sheen-such a conflict of interest as I love Two and a Half Men.

Sandra Bernhardt weirds me out too.

Halle Berry.

Her roles in the Black films in her early days hid the fact that she's not a good actress.

Drew Barrymore and Katie Holmes...mainly because they both talk out of the sides of their mouths. That really bothers me for some reason.

Agreed on Drew Barrymore. I understand she's been through a lot, but she just seems so fake. Like she's playing dumb or something; she speaks way too deliberately.

Tom Cruise. He took a turn to Weirdville and then dived into the Deep End. I also can't stand how he spews all this crap about depression and medication is bad for it, blah blah blah. Until you've walked a mile in somebody else's shoes, you need to keep your mouth shut!

I also can't stand Jim Carey. The scene in "Liar, Liar" where he beats himself up in the bathroom literally made me sick. He used to be mildly funny until then. Now I can't stand to watch any of his movies.

I can't stand either of them.

And Jessica Alba. I'm not even sure why I don't like her, but I don't.

CO-freaking-SIIIIIGN. All my guy friends think she's their vision of a perfect 10, and I'm like WTF? I don't get it.

Megan Fox too. Where's the appeal there?

Robin Williams as a comedian. Any movie with Brendan Fraser is guaranteed to be flop.

Agree with both of these.

Brendan Fraser isn't even remotely entertaining. I hate watching interviews with him, also. He tries to be funny at times, but he definitely isn't. He's more awkward than anything else.

And I must add to the list... Janeane Garofalo. I was so disappointed to see that she was a new character in '24' this season (as I was when I had to put up with her in 2 episodes of my favorite show of all time... 'Seinfeld'). And she has become even more obnoxious because of her latest political rants. Ugh.

Who is Megan Fox, anyway? What show/movie is/was she in? I keep seeing her name all over the place and I have no clue who she is.

She was the female "lead" in the first Transformers movies. Basically a pretty face. Who knows if she can act?

http://www.imdb.com/name/nm1083271/

She was most recently in Transformers.

Exactly what I thought until about a week ago when I looked her up online. Everyone kept saying "Megan Fox is so hot".. I finally figured out she's from Transformers. From what I saw in that movie, she's good at screaming and running, but as for some "real" acting... she needs to do a lot more to impress me.

As far as actors? Hmm...John Travolta, I just don't like him, he gives me the creepy vibe. As does Russell Crowe - aside from his antics.

Jessica Lange. I don't know why she gets the acclaim she gets. I don't think she can act her way out of a paper bag.

Ben Stiller. Just annoying.

Agreed w/ Sarah Silverman, although calling her an "actor" is really pushing it.

As far as old school actors, Grace Kelly was gorgeous but I can't stand her speaking voice.
