Why she might be annoying:

    She and her sister Joan Fontaine never really got along.
    Their jealousy erupted when both were nominated for the 1941 Oscar, and when Joan won, the feud grew and they never spoke to each other again.
    Their hatred goes back to their childhood, at age 9, Olivia wrote a mock will stating 'I bequeath to my sister Joan the ability to attract boys, which she doesn't have at present.'
    She adored Errol Flynn who wanted her so bad, as a prank he stuffed a dead snake in her panties.

Why she might not be annoying:

    She fought the studios long term seven year contracts, it reached the supreme court and she won (1945).
    The victory freed many of the entertainers who were locked up to their studio.
    She is left handed.
    The De Havilland aircrafts were designed by her cousin Sir Geoffrey de Havilland.
