15 celebrities who aren't the biggest fans of Christmas

Larry David made his feelings about the holiday season abundantly clear in a 2021 AirMail essay. “That’s why I detest all holidays but none as much as Christmas. There’s the loathsome music. The movies with their ridiculous, treacly sentiments. The presents —thinking about them, shopping for them (never without resentment), and the attendant pile of garbage that accumulates from opening them, an environmental disaster simultaneously taking place in living rooms across the country.”

In 2016, Miley Cyrus made an emotional post on Instagram about how Christmas makes her "deeply sad." The Hannah Montana star said the season is "filled with so much excessiveness [and] greed" before saying she wants everyone to experience "love and acceptance" worldwide.

“I f—king hate Christmas," Ozzy Osbourne revealed in a 2009 interview. "I f—king hate it. Everything stops. When I used to drink, it was a good excuse to get f--ked. Now, I just hate it.” I wonder how he feels about his Christmas jingle with Jessica Simpson these days. 

Despite her 2011 holiday-inspired album, Lady Gaga revealed she could do without the snow and Santa outfits. "I hate the holidays," she said in 2010 while performing on the Monster Ball tour.

Hugh Grant has been anti-Christmas for years. In 2019, he revealed that he and his dad would "go deliberately to a Muslim country" for the holidays every year to escape the season.
We'd play golf and come back when it was all over."

“No Christmas," Christopher Waltz, who starred in No Time To Die, told The Backstage Experience in 2014. "That’s my biggest wish, no Christmas.”

Not many people say they have a "profound loathing" for Christmas, but Colin Firth does! "It’s sad, really," he told Daily Mail. At this time of year, I am careful not to switch on the radio because those novelty jingles make me homicidal and plunge me into the heart of Scrooge territory."

Ozzy Osbourne isn't the only celeb who hates the "consumerism" of the Christmas holiday. He told Celestrellas in 2010 that "the feeling that you have to do things that you normally don't have to do at any other time of the year" upsets him deeply.

Noel Gallagher wasted no time letting his fans know how he feels about Christmas in a 2017 YouTube video titled "A Christmas Message." He said there's “too much food, too much ‘We Are The World,’ the jumpers, the TV presenters," and "the f—king weather."

"I hate Christmas," Marilyn Manson told the Associated Press during a 2016 red-carpet interview. He even shared that he's spent every holiday season "without a Christmas tree."

The First Lady of the United States is tasked with many jobs during her reign in DC, but one that many look forward to is the unveiling of the Christmas tree and the White House holiday theme. However, that was the least Melania Trump's worries in 2020. “I'm working…my [expletive] off on the Christmas stuff, that you know. Who gives a f–ck about the Christmas stuff and decorations? But I need to do it, right?” she was heard saying on a leaked audio recording.

Marion Cotillard told Kelly Ripa in 2016 that she's "not a Christmas person" and hasn't been since she was a young child. The actress even said she used to fight with her mom "because I didn't want to get presents." She went on, saying her parents couldn't "stand having me amongst the kids not having a present."

Rod Stewart, singer of the album Merry Christmas, Baby, isn't a fan of the snow or Christmas decorations. "Rod doesn’t love Christmas," his wife, Penny, said in 2021. "He can't wait till the decorations are down and his house is back to normal."

Jennifer Aniston doesn't necessarily hate Christmas, but it wasn't her favorite time of the year as a kid. "My dad’s whole side of the family is Greek, so I would dress up as a little Greek girl, and then on Christmas, after taking belly-dancing classes, I would do that," she told Entertainment Weekly. "It had nothing to do with Christmas, even. It was just, ‘Let’s humiliate Jen on Christmas.'”

The luxury fashion designer Karl Lagerfeld didn't mince his words when asked about celebrating the holidays. "Holidays were invented for people who go to the same place every day and do the same thing," he told the Irish Independent. They need a break. I don’t need that. I have a lot of variety in my life.”
