Disdain

The British seem to do disdain better than we do. Examples:
MADONNA

...To people determined never to forgive her for being an ex-dancer from Michigan she’s only ever as good as her collaborators....

KYLIE MINOGUE

The concept of “Kylie” – the logo, the all-conquering hits package with feathers on its head, the brand of nice pants – can occasionally appear so synthetic it’s easy to forget that there’s a human being at the centre of the phenomenon.

BRITNEY SPEARS

...Obviously, her ongoing refusal to wear underwear while exiting cars hasn’t helped her cause, but there have been enough mental-health red flags – the head-shaving, her crying jags while filming the video for new single Gimme More – to leave you wondering whether she really needs the pressure of releasing a career-saving album right now....
