How can it be possible that the actress with the most nominations in Oscars history isn't also the most beloved? Once you become a big fish in Hollywood, you're sure to run into a few sharks who'd like to chomp down on your sweet success. Professional rivalry, politics, and good old fashioned jealousy all play a part. Here are some of the celebs who've had issues with Meryl Streep. They say if you don't have something nice to say, don't say anything at all, yet that hasn't stopped Susan Sarandon from airing out her grievances to the press. The Thelma & Louise star got a little salty when talking about Streep in an issue of Fame magazine — but she doesn't want you to think it's because she's jealous.
According to the mag, Sarandon was peeved at what she perceived as Hollywood's worship of the Into the Woods star. She explained,
"Everything goes to Meryl first. It's the law. I am one of those who think Meryl is a great actress. I don't elevate her to the goddess level, but she does get first crack at all the women's roles. If other women had the same shots she's had, they could equal her."
Sarandon then decided she wanted to make a personal dig, too, adding,
”If her household runs as perfectly as her press would have us believe, I'll slash my throat."
It's not like the Big Apple-born celeb hasn't had a successful career of her own — Sarandon's been nominated for 81 awards and has won 55 of them. Not a bad track record.
