Fox News- Rob Schneider claimed that Bill Murray "absolutely hated" the "Saturday Night Live" cast when he guest-hosted the NBC comedy sketch series. The 58-year-old "SNL" alum recalled the 72-year-old actor's loathing for the show's cast members during an appearance on SiriusXM’s "The Jim Norton & Sam Roberts Show" Thursday.  "He wasn’t very nice to us," Schneider said of Murray. "He hated us on ‘Saturday Night Live’ when he hosted. Absolutely hated us. I mean, seething."

The "Grown Ups" star went on to say that Murray, who is also a former "SNL" cast member, particularly detested Adam Sandler and the late Chris Farley. "He hated Chris Farley with a passion. Like he was just seething looking at him," Schneider said. He speculated that Murray's hatred for Farley may have stemmed from his disapproval of the latter's lifestyle, which Schneider compared to that of the late John Belushi. 

"The Animal" actor also told the hosts that Murray "really hated Sandler, too." Schneider said that he "couldn't say exactly what it was" but added that Murray "just wasn’t into that groove of it, you know?  "And Sandler was just committed to it, and just like, as soon as he would get on, you could see the audience just ate him up."

So this story came out the other day along with one of Bill Murray greeting Geena Davis with an unwelcome massage, which makes Murray look like an asshole and a creep. Just some weird stuff but honestly it doesn't surprise me. I mean look at that the guy. Murray was 100% the old ass guy who came in to SNL, thought he was better than everyone and didn't like these young kids being young stars on the show. I feel like Bill Murray was born with gray hair straight from the womb and is just always angry. 

I feel like a lot of these celebrities aren't actually friends at all. The only ones that are friends are the ones Adam Sandler puts in all of his movies. You never hear any good stories about a lot of these actors but old Billy Bag makes a ton of sense since it's always felt like he's an asshole. Rob Schneider saying all of this live only hammers that home.
