16 Celeb Quirks and Pet Peeves That Are Just Too Relatable

Alright, let’s admit it—everyone’s got that one thing (or ten) that annoys them to the core, even celebrities! Turns out, our favorite stars have some pretty specific pet peeves that range from weirdly relatable to totally out there. These quirks give us a peek behind the scenes of celeb life and show that even superstars have ultra-specific things that just get on their nerves. We’re talking about Cardi B’s refusal to walk, Kylie Jenner’s hatred of paper straws, and Rihanna expecting a “please” before anyone asks for a selfie. So, if you’ve ever wanted to feel a little more connected to the stars, check out these hilarious, unique pet peeves that make celebs feel just a bit more down-to-earth…or maybe not.

1. Keanu Reeves Hates Selfies

Everyone knows Keanu Reeves is Hollywood’s most humble sweetheart, but don’t ask him for a selfie—he’s not a fan. The guy is known for being super chill and generous, signing autographs and chatting with fans, but when it comes to photos, he prefers the old-school vibe. His issue? It’s not just the awkwardness of posing; Keanu has this thing called “hover hands.” He refuses to actually touch fans in photos, keeping his hands a respectful inch away. It’s kind of wholesome and hilarious, tbh. He once said he feels like selfies take away from the moment, preferring an actual conversation over a “click-and-go.” So if you run into him, skip the selfie and go for a real convo—he’ll probably thank you!

2. Beyoncé Has a "No Eating Photos" Rule

In Beyoncé’s world, there’s a very strict rule: no eating pics allowed. Yep, you’ll never catch the Queen Bey mid-bite, and it’s all because she does not want any unflattering photos circulating. Imagine being Beyoncé and just wanting to enjoy a burger, only for a camera to flash—hard pass. She’s reportedly banned any pics of herself eating to keep her flawless image intact. Honestly, it makes sense. Food photos can get a little awkward, especially when you’re chewing or taking a big bite. So, if you’re ever lucky enough to have dinner with Beyoncé, keep that phone down or risk being escorted out by her team. It’s a small price to pay for being in the presence of royalty!

3. Kylie Jenner Hates Paper Straws

Kylie Jenner has had it with paper straws. She’s ranted on social media multiple times about how they basically dissolve the second you take a sip, and she’s over it. Like, imagine trying to enjoy a Starbucks Pink Drink, only to have your straw disintegrate before you’re halfway through. Kylie’s complaints hit home for anyone who’s ever struggled with soggy, mushy paper straws. She’s even hinted that she prefers plastic ones (though she knows they’re bad for the environment). Her solution? Bring your own metal straw, of course! So if you see Kylie, don’t offer her a drink with a paper straw—you’ll probably get a lecture on why they’re the bane of her existence.

4. Jennifer Lawrence Hates Singing “Happy Birthday”

Jennifer Lawrence is hilarious and totally relatable, but when it comes to the “Happy Birthday” song, she’s out. J-Law can’t stand singing it or being sung to—it’s the ultimate cringe for her. She’s even joked about leaving the room if she hears the song start. Honestly, who can blame her? It’s that weird, awkward moment where you’re just sitting there, not knowing what to do with your hands, and all eyes are on you. And singing it? Even worse. She’s said it makes her feel super self-conscious, which is pretty relatable. So next time you see Jennifer at a party, skip the song and just hand her a slice of cake. Trust us, she’ll thank you!

5. Ariana Grande Hates Loud Chewing

Ariana Grande has a major pet peeve when it comes to loud chewers. She’s said it’s one of the most annoying sounds in the world and has zero tolerance for it. Imagine sitting next to Ari, trying to enjoy your snack, and suddenly realizing she’s giving you side-eye for every crunch. She’s not alone in this; loud chewing is basically everyone’s nightmare, but Ari’s made it clear that it’s one of her ultimate dealbreakers. Apparently, she can’t focus if there’s loud munching nearby, so keep your snack quiet if you’re ever around her. Moral of the story? If you’re having dinner with Ariana, maybe stick to soup or something soft—save the chips for later.

6. Kanye West Hates Sitting Front Row at Fashion Shows

Kanye West may be a fashion icon, but front-row seats? He’s not a fan. As much as he loves the attention, Kanye reportedly can’t stand the constant photo-taking and the pressure of sitting front row. He’s once said it’s too chaotic, with people snapping away and everyone watching him watch the show. It’s a little ironic, but hey, the guy just wants to enjoy the show without paparazzi catching every reaction. Instead, Kanye prefers a more low-key spot, where he can appreciate the art of fashion without feeling like he’s on display. So next time you see him at a show, look further back—he’s probably hiding in the second or third row, just chilling.

7. Taylor Swift Can't Stand People Who Don't Text Back

Taylor Swift is just like us—she hates it when people don’t text back! She’s talked about how it drives her crazy to be left on read, especially when she knows the person is online. It’s relatable, right? When you’re trying to make plans or share something exciting, and that little “Read” receipt just stares back at you? Taylor gets it. She’s all about fast replies and hates waiting around for people to respond. So if you’re friends with Taylor, be prepared to keep up with her texts—or you might just end up as the subject of a song.

8. Rihanna Hates Being Asked for Photos Without a "Please"

Rihanna’s pet peeve? People asking her for photos without so much as a “please.” She’s been known to call out fans who skip the manners, saying it feels rude and entitled. Honestly, it’s fair—nobody wants to feel like a photo machine! RiRi wants a little respect and politeness, so if you see her, throw in a “please” and maybe a compliment while you’re at it. It’s not much to ask, and it might even make her day. Plus, being polite is the quickest way to win over Rihanna, and who wouldn’t want to be on her good side?

9. Oprah Winfrey Hates Chewing Gum

Oprah Winfrey has one major pet peeve that she cannot stand: chewing gum. It started in childhood when her grandma would stick used gum on cabinets, and the trauma has stuck. Oprah has said she doesn’t want it near her—ever. Even her staff is forbidden from chewing gum around her. It might sound dramatic, but everyone’s got their thing, and Oprah’s is serious about this. Imagine offering Oprah a piece of gum, only to watch her back away in horror. So if you’re ever near her, save the gum for later!

10. Gordon Ramsay Hates Pineapple on Pizza

Gordon Ramsay’s ultimate pet peeve? Pineapple on pizza. The famously fiery chef has made it clear that he thinks it’s an abomination, and he’s not shy about sharing his opinion. He’s called it a “crime” and “disgusting,” and has even refused to serve it in his restaurants. If you ever want to see Ramsay in full-on rant mode, just mention pineapple pizza and watch him go off. For the record, if you’re dining with Gordon, stick to classic toppings—he’s not about that sweet-and-savory mix.

11. Emma Watson Can't Stand Oversharing on Social Media

Emma Watson is super private, and one thing she hates is oversharing on social media. She’s said it makes her uncomfortable when people broadcast every detail of their lives online. Emma keeps her own posts low-key, mostly about her work or activism, and stays away from personal updates. So if you’re following her expecting juicy details, you’re out of luck. She’s more about meaningful content than random selfies, and she’s even kept her love life pretty private. Respect!

12. Billie Eilish Hates The Word "Moist"

Billie Eilish has spoken out about her hatred for the word “moist.” It’s a classic pet peeve, but Billie takes it to another level, calling it her least favorite word in the English language. She’s cringed on camera just hearing it, and honestly, she’s not alone—“moist” has a way of making people uncomfortable. So if you’re hanging with Billie, maybe skip the word altogether. She’s all about good vibes, and “moist” is just not it.

13. Cardi B Hates Walking

Cardi B has straight-up admitted she hates walking. She’s said in interviews that she wishes she could just teleport everywhere instead. It’s a hilarious complaint, but relatable if you hate those long, exhausting treks. She’s known for arriving places in style, often chauffeured or carried by security at concerts. Cardi just wants to look fabulous without putting in the footwork—can’t argue with that.

14. Will Smith Hates Kissing Scenes

Will Smith may be a movie star, but kissing scenes? Nope, he’s not a fan. He’s talked about how awkward it feels, especially when it’s in front of a crew. He once even asked his Hitch co-star, Eva Mendes, if they could “just skip the kissing part,” though it didn’t quite work out that way. So next time you see him in a romantic scene, remember he’s probably cringing inside.

15. Lady Gaga Hates "Boring" Coffee Orders

Lady Gaga is all about bold choices, and her pet peeve? Boring coffee orders. She’s said that she finds plain black coffee uninspiring and even borderline offensive. Gaga’s known for going all-out in everything she does, so she prefers drinks that are more adventurous. If you’re grabbing coffee with her, expect her to suggest something way more exciting than your usual latte.

16. Chris Evans Hates Being Called "Captain America" Off-Set

Chris Evans may have nailed the role of Captain America, but he’s not about that title off-set. He’s joked that he’s “just Chris” when he’s not in character, and prefers not to be seen as the hero 24/7. So if you run into him, just call him Chris—no shield required.

From Beyoncé’s no-photo rule to Will Smith’s cringe over on-screen kisses, these celebrity pet peeves prove that fame doesn’t make you immune to life’s little annoyances. In fact, these quirks might even make them a bit more relatable—or just plain entertaining. Whether you agree with them or find them hilariously over-the-top, it’s clear that even the biggest stars have things they just can’t stand. So next time something bugs you, remember: even Beyoncé’s got her pet peeves.
