Piers Morgan, the ever lovable former Daily Mirror editor and man for whom the word smarmy was invented, certainly has gotten his large, soiled knickers in a twist of late.
We’re not even half way through the week and he’s already attempted to take some cheap shots at 2 people who are infinitely more famous and loved than him.
It’s the equivalent of the school weed slagging off the popular kids because they won’t invite him to their fancy pool parties when their parents go to Tuscany for the weekend. Read More >>>
Zane Lowe is an unbearably smug son of a turd and if you disagree with that statement then you’ll probably disagree with most of this article. Ever since the days when he was sitting on a badly green-screened couch, chumming up to the Foo Fighters, Lowe has maintained the air of a man whose every musical opinion is based not on a love of music, but on a love of his own opinions on music.
The Smug-Meister-General of BBC Radio 1′s musical output has a long-running tradition of forcing his opinions down the throats of his listeners by choosing a series of “Masterpiece” albums to play, in their entirety, during his show. Thankfully this only happens once a year.
However, things are different this time.

Yes it’s that time of year where Twitter is all aflutter with talk of moustaches and novels. The nights have finished drawing in and the drunken abandon of Hallowe’en has passed into the forgotten annals of Facebook albums to be ignored until next year.
Winter’s here and it’s a time for soup, fires, books and growing a moustache and forgetting to do it for charity (yeah, you’re supposed to get yourself sponsored, you unbearable poseur). Winter’s also a time of reflection when we look back and realise that we’ve done nothing to inspire or improve the world. You know, that feeling that everyone gets where they want to make the world a better place by forcing their insufferable platitudes upon an uninterested populace?
Well, most people.

With the loss of Jools Holland’s iconic “Later…” until its new series begins in the Spring, BBC bosses are desperately scrabbling around looking for a new show to fill their most important quota of all.
A lot of our readers might not know that the BBC has a number of quotas that they have to fulfil on a weekly basis.
From the news output quota that all terrestrial television channels must adhere to to quotas regarding race, religion and sexuality (possibly) but there is one of the BBC’s quotas that is less well known and that hecklerspray can exclusively reveal to you today. Read More >>>
Stephen Fry is the Dad we wished we all had here at Hecklerspray, mainly because he’s less drinky-drinky-touchy-feely than our real Dads, but also because he’s so loveable and he loves technology.
Fry has always showcased his love for technology and yesterday conducted the first ever newspaper interview via twitter, in which he used the popular but ultimately pointless and constantly broken social network to talk to the only man in the UK with a name more ridiculous than (the sparkly new editor of Hecklerspray) Mof Gimmers. The impossibly smug Johann Hari. Read More >>>
George Clooney may well be a huge ball of smugness, thinking he knows better than all of us – but he doesn’t think that highly of himself, it would appear.
Well, he probably does still think highly of himself. In fact, there’s no ‘probably’ about it.
Anyway, Georgey apparently doesn’t think enough of himself to advise presidential candidate and Paris Hilton/Britney Spears-alike Barack Obama, despite reports emerging that claimed otherwise.
No, it would seem that George Clooney just thinks he’s better than us ‘normies’, as he may well like to call us, and only feels it prudent to educate (‘patronise’) and entertain (‘annoy with smug fat face’) the plebians – not those of a better stock, like candidates for the US presidency.
Well doesn’t that just make you feel a whole lot better? Not only is he not trying to influence possible future leaders, but he will still try and talk down to us as much as humanly possible.
But we’ve seen you in Attack of the Killer Tomatoes, George – we all know what levels you’ll stoop to, and we simply can’t respect you for it. Take that!
