you know who i really dislike, despite the fact that i have never met her and cannot give you one good reason for disliking her, except for the fact that i think she’s a shitty actress? that’s right, Sean Young.
i can’t put my finger on it, but she annoys the hell out of me, to a really insane degree. anyway, for some reason, despite the fact that she’s sort of a has been/never was, Entertainment Weekly is doing a cover story on her (why? i don’t know…i don’t ask these questions anymore…mostly because nobody answers me). so i am kind of loathe to give her the free press of my dozens and dozens of readers (that’s you!) but i posted the link to the full story below.
she’s so pathetic in the interview that i actual started to feel a little sorry for her, but then she just continued being whiny and annoying and fake and psycho and comparing herself to Julia Roberts (are you kidding?) and saying she has at least as much charisma as George Clooney (are you KIDDING?!) and so my ‘sorry feelings’ evaporated like fine mist and i just went back to hating her again. this is one of those few times that Hollywood seems to agree with me and has forcibly kept her on the sidelines…it feels good when a powerhouse like Hollywood finally agrees with you. it feels like delicious satisfaction and let me tell you, i could get used to it.
as a sidenote, i’ve been compiling a list…you know how i love lists dear reader…of the “10 Most Overrated Actresses”…Sean Young would be #1 on it, but since she isn’t really “highly rated” i guess she’ll just have to get an honorable mention, as only women who are actually getting good roles in Hollywood (for no reasons understood by mankind…or, well, me.) should be on the list. anyway, here’s a link to the full story, in which you can feel writer Karen Valby’s palpable disdain for her, you can feel Valby trying to like her and Young just cutting her off at every pass:

ps – no picture of Sean Young because i hate looking at her (even though she says “humor and beauty are two things that come naturally to her” yuck – i just threw up a little bit) and i don’t want her image posted on my blog…ever. it was painful enough to write her name and link to a story…
UPDATE: this is not a “cover story” in Entertainment Weekly, it is just “a regular story”…the cover i saw in the current article (but didn’t bother to read the caption on) was a cover story they did on her back in 1992…she didn’t warrant a cover story back then to my mind either, but at least she could have been considered “entertainment news” back then. sorry for the error!

She may suck, but I kind of liked her as Harrison Ford’s android lover in “Blade Runner”. But then, maybe that was just her real personality coming through; doing a vapid emotionless robot with good outfits and retro hair works for her.
There are better people to hate than Sean Yound… let’s say Renee Z. perhaps?
-
i hate to give away the whole “top 10 overrated actresses” list that is COMING SOON, but Renee Z. will ABSOLUTELY be competing for top honors. yuck.
i guess my Sean Young hate was rekindled by an Entertainment Weekly article on her…again, i ask the world, why? and yet again it refuses to answer.

Hollywood is full of decent actresses who hunker down, study hard, make friends with talented would-be filmmakers and earn themselves a comeback by paying their dues. This is not Sean Young.
One thing I noticed about the interview – she spent two hours talking about herself, self, self. She is not interested in film as a medium, or working with talented people. She’s just interested in me, me, I, I, I. Even Heather Graham deserves more kudos than her (and don’t start me on that…)
Goodbye, Sean Young. May you rot in obscurity as a footnote in 1980’s trivia contests.

well said Proofer!

Now that she’s been carted off to rehab after her disgusting scene at the Director’s Guild awards (2008), I guess we were right along. Ta-ta, Sean!
-
Let’s just hope she doesn’t end up on Celebrity Rehab or something…that seems like a trick she would pull. 😉

I disagree about Sean being a terrible actress. She’s been bad in some movies ( of course the movies were bad, too) but she’s been great in others. I particularly love her as Ted Danson’s bitch of a wife in “Cousins”. I think she thrives on really good direction. She seems to be bitter about her bad luck ( breaking her collarbone and losing the part in Batman, being unable to accept the Sharon Stone part in Casino because she was pregnant, and, well really maybe it wasn’t exactly bad luck, but having the tabloids pounce all over her for the he said she said brouhuaha (don’t know how to spell that) with James Woods. By the way, he ended up having to give her a $$$ settlement in that case. Hmmmm…) anyways please don’t hate Sean!!! She just tries too hard. And loves her cocktails.
