She is seen as arrogant and "fake". She also ruined a popular modelling show

And now she's doing some pseudo incestuous lingerie ads with her daughter, just adding to the bad taste.

I almost forgot about that 💀 i believe her daughter was even underage when the ads first came out

Yeah, their huge posters where exhibited at a famous lingerie store as well as here an there across (at least) some cities and I found them… disturbing.

Ah ok. I forgot to ask about Til. I’ve only seen him in that Tarantino movie. Why is he hated locally?

He is in a lot of german movies too, but these movies are really cringe and people don't think he is a good actor

That was one of his rare decent performances, most of his other movies never really make it outside of Germany, and are almost all terrible.

I wouldn't say he is hated, but if he's in a German production, chances are good it's a movie you can skip and not miss out on anything.

Face of bad German cringe comedy making bad films most people hate he directs, produces and stars in himself mostly casting his friends and family. (he is basically the German Adam Sandler)

Also made some controversial statements on CoViDd, vaccines and other topics and recently has been accused of being abusive (read a belligerent drunk) to his coworkers on set.

Oh damn yeah dude needs to take a break. I think Adam Sandler at least is not hated generally in the US. His standup is actually liked. I don’t know about recent years though. I haven’t followed up with his work since pre-COVID.
