15 Most Offensive Movie Characters

8. Ruby Rhod (Chris Tucker) - The Fifth Element

The Character: A shrill-voiced, flamboyant, ambiguously-gendered talk show host who was partly modeled on Prince, precisely because the character was originally supposed to be played by the legendary musician. Why He's Offensive: Because to anyone unfortunate enough to own a pair of ears, he's an absolute assault on the senses, his every second of screen time consisting of high-pitched squealing, gaudy outfits and an overall presence best described as "offputting". Now, Tucker was clearly directed by Luc Besson to act as super-annoying and obnoxious as possible, but intent can't really save this one: the mere sound of his voice is enough to make most fans' skin crawl, and his singing and general uselessness in terms of the plot only make him all the more offensive. Does He Ruin The Movie?: No, but he has a damn good try at it. Thankfully Tucker bows out every now and then to let Bruce Willis just do his thing, but every time he does appear, the movie would be much better if he was just erased from the script.
