Classic Hollywood Feuds That Ruined Careers

Feuds and animosity are usually kept private, but that’s almost impossible to do in the world of Hollywood. If two stars dislike each other, it’s likely to become apparent one way or another. It may end up in the press or tabloids or feature in an autobiography written years later.

Many of the events that start Hollywood feuds are similar to those that spark animosity among “normal” people. They include rumors, fights over men, and competition for coveted roles.

Each Hollywood feud transpires uniquely. It depends on how willing the stars are to work together despite their differences, the nature of their relationship, and several other factors.

Attempts at peace may fail like they did with Marlon Brando and Frank Sinatra. They can also succeed like they did for Debbie Reynolds and Elizabeth Taylor.

A feud can make a project better or ruin a career. Vivian Vance vs. William Frawley used their distaste for one another to play a more believable married couple, but animosity ended famous duos like Abbott and Costello.

Family fights are common within Hollywood as siblings attempt to one-up each other. This was certainly the case for Olivia de Havilland and Joan Fontaine.

Feuding doesn’t discriminate based on gender. Men and women like Ginger Rogers may develop a distaste for each other. Two men like Orson Wells and William Randolph Hearst may fight over business matters. Two women who aren’t related, like Bette Davis and Joan Crawford, may fight over men or become jealous of the roles and awards one of them receives.

The press loves Hollywood feuds and tends to stir up the drama. They’re a juicy story for fans but can leave the stars with deep wounds that may never heal.
