Crash II
Poor Lucille Gatchell.
People hate you enough when you drink-drive.
People hate you even more when drink-drive, and you cause a crash.
But to drink drive, cause a crash, and hit Sandra Bullock?? One of the most apparently kindly, inoffensive, likeable women in Hollywood? Sucks to be Lucille.
My first thought when I heard about it was "poor drunk bitch...everyone likes Sandra Bullock." I mean, there are a brazillion people she could have hit that wouldn't have bothered anybody. Tobey Maguire, Penelope Cruz, Vince Vaughn, Nicole Kidman, Bradley Whitford, Heather Locklear, John Cusack, Gwyneth Paltrow, Fergie, Brittany Murphy, Jennifer Lopez, Charlie Sheen, Thomas Haden Church, Calista Flockhart, Jim Belushi, Pierce Brosnan, Patricia Heaton, Jamie Foxx, Adrian Grenier, Madonna, Andy Dick, John Travolta, Paris Hilton, Tom Cruise, Jerry Seinfeld, Leonardo DiCaprio, Ben Affleck, Scarlett Johansson, Bill Pullman, Jeremy fucking Piven...the list goes on. Sure, these people all have fans - hell, I'm a fan of a few of them - but if they were hit in a drunken car collision the response from most people would be nothing more than "aww...hey! Heroes is on!"
But Sandra Bullock strikes me as one of the few people who nobody would wish harm to. I don't know, maybe you all hate her and I'm way off base; but I'd put her with Alyson Hannigan, Christopher Walken, and Samuel L Jackson as universally liked people.
Are my person opinions of these four people skewing my view? Or is there really such thing as unhateable people? And are there any more? I nearly added Christina Applegate and Ellen to the first four, but decided against it because while I like them both, I can see they are both high risk for hateability.
