You've heard of those people you love to hate, right? Well these are celebrities that I 'Hate to Love'. Those celebrities that are otherwise wonderful performers, until someone sticks a microphone or camera in front of them and they open their mouth. Then, their wackiness takes over and you start shaking your head. Some part of you still wants to love them and their body of work. However, you are somehow less likely to admit it, now that their Arrogance, America-bashing, Capitalism-bashing, and general wackiness have been made public.

10. Sheryl Crow - When the music is playing it is hip and upbeat. However, when the music stops, the lyrics change from "If it makes you happy" to "The best way to solve problems is to not have enemies." (And I think the best way to solve poverty is to have money.)
9. Robert Altman - Altman, who brought us lovable movies such as 'MASH' and 'Popeye', has a habit of biting the hands that feed him. One of his latest outbursts included this gem: "When I see an American flag flying, it's a joke. There's nothing in America that I would miss at all." He wouldn't even miss all those American movie patrons whom he uses to make his fortune.
8. Robert Redford - Sundance is a decent screen actor, and draws them in at the box office. Still, his work with EMA (Environmental Media Association) and his attempted lecturing of George Bush make him someone you hate to love. Why can't actors like Redford who have to much time on their hands go make salad dressing or something useful, and keep their hands off my SUV.
7. Norman Lear - Lear brought us wonderful shows like 'All in the Family', 'Good Times', and 'The Jeffersons'. Still, not satisfied with being inviting into your living room, he's invaded your garage and is keying your shiny new SUV. Lear, who owns a 21 car garage, is a primary sponsor of those SUV/Terrorism ads that have been running lately.
6. Danny Glover - Glover, who has starred in numerous big Hollywood thrillers, blames American imperialism for spreading violence in the world. His on-screen excitement is tempered with his off-screen antics and wild claims of government sponsored slavery and oppression. The kicker was when the 'Lethal Weapon' and 'Predator 2' star claimed, "I've been an advocate for peace my whole life."
5. Ed Asner - As a life long fan of the Mary Tyler Moore show, Ed Asner is a wonderful comedic actor. When the laughter stops, however, Asner gets on his soap box and starts spouting off against our war on terror. I've always thought that peaceniks have their place in life, and that place is France.
4. Dustin Hoffman - Hoffman is a quality actor. Kramer vs. Kramer, the Graduate, Rainman, and most of his other films are quality pieces of work. Unfortunately, sometimes when Hoffman is awarded for his achievements, he starts to delve into the political foray, as if we actually care what he thinks about foreign policy.
3. George Clooney - TV's 'Booker' from 'Roseanne', is a quality actor filled with wit and charm. Despite his decent performances in 'A Perfect Storm', 'Three Kings', and TV's 'ER', Clooney stuns fans off the screen with his wild claims and antics. His recent assertions that he is "graphically and fully informed about world events", and should therefore be taken seriously, and his poking fun at Alzheimer's Disease and 'Moses' from 'The Ten Commandments' makes him someone I really hate to love.
2. Robin Williams - Williams used to be a cutting edge comedian. His jokes were hilarious and timeless. Yet his recent televised specials have consisted mostly of cheap, dated, political one-liners. Political comedians like Dennis Miller and Jay Leno do their work on a nightly or weekly basis, and are usually pretty fresh. Williams' reversion to a Dennis Miller style is just pathetic and sad.
1. Barbra Streisand - Barbra is the queen of wackiness. While I don't personally enjoy her singing, there is no doubting her talent and her fan following. Still, it pains me to even look at wacky web site where she spouts her strange political views. Highlights of her wackiness over the past few years include a strange letter to Dick 'Gebhardt', mistaking Iraq for Iran, and mis-quoting Shakespeare.
1. Michael Jackson - If Barbra is the queen, then Michael is the King. The story of Jackson is known oh so well. For all his talent and entertainment value, it is sad to see the wacky man he has become. Over the years he tried purchasing the elephant man, and he opened his own private amusement park. Recently he's admitted to sleeping with children, and he insists he's had only one or two plastic surgeries on his face. His recent ABC interview concluded that he is a man that is far removed from reality, as if we didn't know that already.

Honorable Mentions:
Alan Alda, Tom Cruise, Mike Ferrell, Woody Harrellson, Bill Mahar, Susan Sarandon
