If there's one thing Hollywood is never short on, it's egos.
In an industry where collaboration is key, putting those egos in the same room can sometimes
produce disastrous results that range anywhere from stressful productions to full-on fistfights.
Here are some celebs that learned the hard way that they should probably never work together
again.
Nicki Minaj and Mariah Carey
When it comes to being a diva, no one does it quite like Mariah Carey, so when American
Idol producers put Carey on the judges' panel with Nicki Minaj, they must have known the
sparks would fly.
"Would it be frightfully tiresome if somebody brought me some ice?"
During auditions in Charlotte, North Carolina in 2012, tensions exploded when Minaj hurled
profanities at Carey after growing tired of her behavior.
The back-and-forth was captured on video and leaked to TMZ.
"I told them, I'm not putting up with her f---ing highness no more!"
After the epic blowout died down, the two eventually went back to acting like professionals.
In the lead-up to Idol's 15th season, BET reported that Carey claimed the feud was fake
and cooked up by producers.
However, Idol producers made it clear to E! News that the feud was all too real, calling
it a "nightmare experience."
They also know exactly who was to blame.
Producer Nigel Lythgoe revealed,
"Nicki was not the problem."
David O. Russell and George Clooney
In 1997, George Clooney was primarily known for his television role on E.R., and his career
in film was by no means a sure thing.
So it was a pretty bold move when the TV doctor went toe-to-toe with director David O. Russell
on the set of Three Kings.
In a 2000 interview with Playboy, the actor claimed that he grew tired of Russell constantly
berating crew members, and the situation reached a boiling point when the director allegedly
kicked an extra.
According to Clooney, he approached Russell and attempted to diffuse the situation, which
did not go well.
After a screaming match, Russell allegedly headbutted Clooney, Clooney fought back, and
the two had to be physically pulled apart.
Clooney told Playboy,
"I had him by the throat."
Russell and Clooney managed to make it through the rest of production.
However, Clooney swore he'd never work with Russell again.
In 2004, Clooney told Premiere,
"Quite honestly, if he comes near me, I'll sock him right in the f---ing mouth,"
Definitely keep those two apart.
Tina Fey and Paris Hilton
Even with a long career cracking jokes about celebrities, Tina Fey seems to walk a fine
line that keeps her in their good graces.
She's still close with Lindsay Lohan, which proves Fey can be pretty forgiving when it
comes to celebrity antics.
However, during Fey's time on Saturday Night Live, Paris Hilton was apparently an absolute
nightmare of a host, and Fey didn't hold back when asked to share her thoughts on the hotel
heiress.
In an interview with Howard Stern, Fey said what she really thought.
"She's a piece of s---."
According to Fey, Hilton embraced her stupidity and demanded to star in a sketch as Jessica
Simpson because Hilton allegedly hated the singer.
Fey claimed The Simple Life star barely acknowledged the cast, and in Fey's words, her "...cheap
weave left nasty wads of Barbie hair on the floor."
"Always dress like a princess.
If you do, you'll be treated like one."
James Franco and Tyrese Gibson
While filming Annapolis, co-stars James Franco and Tyrese Gibson feuded so badly that Gibson
openly told Elle in 2007 that he wished he could blow up Franco's house.
According to Uproxx, the tension between the two stemmed from Franco's method acting, which
even Franco admits was way out of control in his early acting days.
In an interview with Playboy, Gibson said he felt like it was more than just method
acting when Franco refused to break character while practicing the film's boxing scenes,
which often involved Gibson repeatedly getting punched.
Gibson said,
"I never want to work with him again, and I'm sure he feels the same way.
It felt very personal.
It was f---ed up."
In his defense, Franco claims he attempted to make up with Gibson, and he takes full
responsibility.
As for Gibson, he's remained mum on the subject, and we don't see the two working together
again anytime soon.
Bruce Willis and Kevin Smith
In 2009, Kevin Smith took a massive pay cut for a chance to work with Bruce Willis on
the buddy comedy Cop Out.
It was also the first time Smith directed a movie he didn't write, but he was up for
the challenge if it meant working with Willis.
Unfortunately, some dreams die hard, and that's the way it went for Smith.
On an episode of WTF With Marc Maron, Smith described working with Willis as "soul crushing."
He said Willis was essentially zero help and wouldn't even sit for the movie poster.
In a lengthier interview with SBS Australia, Smith said he knew from day one that Willis
was completely checked out for two reasons.
First, he was supposedly intimidated by Tracy Morgan's ad lib skills.
"Call me back.
OK.
I had the phone the wrong way.
I was talking to the back of the phone.
No wonder she cheating on me."
Smith said,
"You could just see the colour draining out of his face."
Secondly, Willis allegedly only cared about the money, which is something that Smith had
not dealt with before with other actors.
Smith said,
"Willis was [a] straight up paycheck player.
Nothing wrong with that, it's not against the law, but if you're going to get paid to
do the job, do the job.
He didn't want to do that."
"He's not interested anymore.
After the 'Cop Out' experience, I was like, 'If this is what it's like working with the
best, I'm gonna go make cartoons.'"
We're pretty sure the two are happier without each other.
Charlie Sheen and Selma Blair
In 2013, Selma Blair threatened to sue Charlie Sheen and Lionsgate for wrongful termination
after she was fired from Anger Management.
According to TMZ, Blair believed Sheen had her written off the show after she complained
about him holding up production by being a "slacker" who never memorized his lines.
However, sources also said that Blair's time on the show was always going to be short-lived,
and when Sheen heard about her complaining, it happened even sooner.
According to Radar, that process allegedly involved Sheen firing Blair via text and calling
her a certain c-word.
While Blair and Lionsgate presumably reached a settlement, Sheen was still salty about
the situation in 2017.
While appearing on Watch What Happens Live!, he was asked to rank his favorite female co-stars.
He praised Heather Locklear and said Lindsay Lohan was, quote, "fun to look at."
As for Blair and Jenny McCarthy?
"Yeah, I would like to kind of mash those two up together and just, kinda just do that,
just kick them to the curb.
They deserve each other."
Kiefer Sutherland and Freddie Prinze Jr.
It's no secret that Kiefer Sutherland loves booze.
The actor has four DUIs, and he literally wrote a love song dedicated to alcohol.
On top of that, he's kind of short, which proved to be a frustrating combination for
Freddie Prinze Jr., who reportedly hated working with Sutherland on 24 so much that he wanted
to quit acting.
Prinze told ABC News,
"Kiefer was the most unprofessional dude in the world.
That's not me talking trash, I'd say it to his face, I think everyone that's worked with
him has said that."
After leaving 24, Prinze surprisingly went to work for wrestling promoter Vince McMahon,
which he admitted was a different kind of crazy, but still preferable to working with
Sutherland.
He said,
"At least [McMahon] was cool and tall.
I didn't have to take my shoes off to do scenes with him, which [24] made me do.
Just put the guy on an apple box or don't hire me next time.
You know I'm 6 feet and he's 5'4."
In a statement to TMZ, Sutherland's rep said this was the first the actor had heard about
Prinze's grievances, noting that Sutherland enjoyed the experience and wishes him the
best.
That isn't exactly a denial, so we're pretty sure these two aren't going to play partners
again anytime soon.
Bill Murray and Lucy Liu
When Charlie's Angels: Full Throttle ramped up production, Bill Murray was noticeably
absent from the sequel, despite playing series regular Bosley.
According to The Playlist, the actor was allegedly brutal to Lucy Liu during the first film,
having stopped a scene to insult her acting, which resulted in Liu throwing punches.
After that, Murray refused to appear in the sequel if Liu was involved, and he found himself
replaced by Bernie Mac — or so the story goes.
When asked about the incident almost a decade later by The Times of London, Murray simply
said,
"Look, I will dismiss you completely if you are unprofessional and working with me…
When our relationship is professional, and you're not getting that done, forget it."
Murray also said that Charlie's Angels director McG deserves to be, quote, "...pierced by
a lance..." and Murray admitted to holding a grudge against Harold Ramis, one of his
oldest friends and closest collaborators, for more than 20 years.
In other words, don't hold your breath for a Liu and Murray truce.
Shia LaBeouf and Alec Baldwin
In 2013, Shia LaBeouf and Alec Baldwin were set to appear in the Broadway production of
Orphans until LaBeouf was fired from the show because of "creative differences."
In a lengthy interview with Vulture, Baldwin described his version of events.
He claims that LaBeouf showed up to the set with a "jailhouse mentality" and began sending
Baldwin videos in which he recited entire scenes from memory.
Eventually, the situation went nuclear when LaBeouf told Baldwin during rehearsal that
he was "slowing him down."
At that point, Baldwin asked to be removed from the show, but the director chose to fire
LaBeouf instead.
A year later, LaBeouf told Interview that his method acting had gotten the best of him.
He also said that his goal was to, quote, "...intimidate the f--- out of Baldwin."
He even admitted to following Baldwin home after he got fired from the play.
Needless to say, the situation got way out of hand.
According to LaBeouf, the two actors have since made amends, but we don't suspect Baldwin
will be working with LaBeouf anytime soon.
No matter how hard LaBoeuf might beg.
"What are you waiting for?
DO IT!"
Tom Hardy and Charlize Theron
Mad Max: Fury Road may have been a box-office success and a hit with critics, but behind-the-scenes,
stars Charlize Theron and Tom Hardy did not get along — at all.
In interviews, Theron wasn't shy about confirming the rumors that she struggled with Hardy,
and director George Miller even admitted that Theron and Hardy didn't have the best relationship,
according to People.
While sitting down with Esquire, Theron went even further by bluntly revealing that the
two actors, quote, "...f---n' went at it..."...which she blamed on both Hardy's personality and
filming conditions that involved them constantly working on a moving truck in the desert.
In 2017, co-star Zoe Kravitz confirmed the feud between Theron and Hardy, which she partially
blamed on the grueling production.
On Watch What Happens Live!, Kravitz revealed,
"Yeah, they didn't get along, they didn't get along, and we were also in the desert
for so long.
I think everyone was tired, and confused."
Both Theron and Hardy are game for another Mad Max film, so buckle your seatbelts, folks.
