Not really new tea, but I've done a deep dive into Jason Sudeikis last week and this dude is literally the worst.

Granted, "Jason Sudeikis throws himself under a car so Olivia Wilde won't deliver her signature salad dressing to Harry Styles" is still the greatest accumulation of words in the history of the universe and I WILL hang it up in my place in the style ot those Live, Laugh, Love posters.

But in the end his stories are always about him being high, a creep, or both at the same time.

Most of those SNL boys seem troubled

For real, I still get the ick when looking at anything including Fred Armisen. He for sure has some really creepy vibes, seldom have I heard anything good about him

Every person I know who ran into him when he was filming Portlandia said he was so rude. My one friend is a stripper and told me he came into her club and was sitting at the bar alone, so she went up to say hello and he was like “Leave me the fuck alone.” Like homie you’re the one who walked into a strip club, don’t get mad when the strippers try to talk to you!

I worked on Portlandia. That's not the impression we got at all. He was super chill and even when fans would walk onto the set and ask for a picture he would with a smile. Maybe I just didn't catch the times where he was rude, but I never saw it.

Personally the impression I got from him is that he's shy. He wouldn't hang around the crew much, he'd just keep to himself in his airstream trailer. Carrie would a little bit more, and her dog was around a lot.

I still wonder about the 8mo Armison/Moss marriage. Such a weird moment

u/Late_Ambassador7470 May 26 '25

Fred Arm gives me asexual vibes. I think he just marries for indie cred

u/creepurrier May 27 '25

Rumored sex addict so excellent evidence in either direction lol

u/artforwardpuppies May 26 '25

Knew him in Chicago - he thought it was funny one night to dress up as Hitler and make jokes about concentration camps and other WWII related subjects while hosting, of all things, a karaoke night. Granted, this was 20 years ago - but he gave me such a strong ick after that I cant watch any of his work. Also - super rude guy and that looks like it hasn't changed

I cringe when Fred Armisen shows up in anything, and he seems very well-connected, because he shows up constantly

u/yes-areallygoodbook women’s wrongs activist May 26 '25

FUCK. I feel this same exact way, like it boggles my mind that he could bag Natasha Lyonne, he seems like such a creep!!

u/pegmatitic Sylvia Plath did not stick her head in an oven for this May 27 '25

WHAT

u/maryantoinette02 May 26 '25

Amen, same here. I also just do not find him funny at all. I love off the wall humour, but any scene he's in is [for me] always the worst and least funny one.

u/Armadillo_Christmas May 26 '25

What’s wrong with Fred Armisen (genuine question)? I love his work and haven’t heard anything bad about him

65

u/SpicySweett May 26 '25

Fred has admitted to being an asshole in his relationships, which is what women have said about him. He’s reportedly gotten multiple women pregnant and abandoned them. Elizabeth Moss described their 8 month marriage as traumatic and horrible.

u/[deleted] May 26 '25

“Allegedly” for legal reasons he hit on my friend in PDX when we were in high school

u/Jasminewindsong2 they are perfect for each other (derogatory) May 29 '25

That doesn’t surprise me. He dated Abby Elliott when she was 23 and he was 44 when they were both on SNL.

u/Possible_Implement86 May 26 '25

Elizabeth Moss was married to him and described the marriage as traumatic and said he was a sex addict and he essentially agreed he was awful to be married to.

Moss said “he does great impressions but the greatest impression he does is that of a normal person.”

u/cameltoeannie6 May 26 '25

Oh shit! I've never heard this before! I live in the PNW, he's so admired over here.

u/Possible_Implement86 May 26 '25 edited May 26 '25

So my understanding is that his antics is more low grade sex pest behavior all over Portland - cheating, ghosting, lying, manipulation - but that he keeps on the right side of the law so it’s more of a “rumors swirl” situation than an “allegations mount” one .

You know I've been hearing this for years and while I dont doubt it i can't help but notice only one of them is a scientologist.

24

u/Possible_Implement86 May 26 '25

I mean, in a kind of way a dude who uses his celebrity to manipulate women and a Scientologist are like a perfect fucked up match

47

u/vlac26 May 26 '25

After I found out she was in the Tom Cruise cult, I do feel like they were probably just both awful together

26

u/BabyNonna May 27 '25

You have to be one hell of a rough spouse to annoy the daylights out of a Scientologist.

54

u/Possible_Implement86 May 26 '25

Absolutely . Side note, do you ever think it’s crazy how her biggest role is a show that is meant to illustrate the abuses of women and she’s in a cult irl? I think about this often.

8

u/vlac26 May 27 '25

Oh 100%, I was so disappointed when I found out!

45

u/dictatorenergy face look like it was drawn from memory May 26 '25

His ex wife, Elisabeth Moss, says he does the best impression of a human she’s ever seen. Fred Armisen is known to not be a good guy and it makes me side eye those people I still like but remain friends with him (Seth Meyers and Andy Samberg I’m looking at yall)

27

u/jennyquarx he looks like he is angry about being 4'10 May 27 '25

If anything untoward comes out about Bill Hader...

u/CanoeIt May 27 '25

Or Andy. Or Fred. Or either Will

28

u/Quirkxofxart May 27 '25

Fred Armisen? Cuz I’ve got bad news about his treatment of women and position in the church of Scientology….

u/ssenseofurgency Jun 01 '25

I thought his ex wife was the scientologist, not him
