Taylor in A Place in the Sun and Who's Afraid of Virginia Wolf are two of my favorites of hers. In the 1960s and later I agree she became mostly a way to sell gossip and celebrity magazines.
“Meryl Streep was [Hepburn’s] least favourite actress onscreen,” Berg writes in Kate Remembered. It seems that Hepburn was fixated on Streep, utterly dumbfounded by the praise of an actor she deemed sub-par. Berg recalls Hepburn deriding Streep’s technique: “‘Click, click, click,’ she said, referring to the wheels turning inside [Streep’s] head.”

Seems to me, Kate was jealous of Meryl Streep. Many top entertainers got to the top by being fiercely competitive.
That harsh attitude of judging other peers never leaves them, not even after they have ceased being bankable actors.
Musicians too. Joni Mitchell is well known for her jealousy of Bob Dylan. She called his success “fake”.

I have to agree. I think Streep winning the Oscar for Kramer vs Kramer, which Streep was barely in, was a travesty. I’ve never liked her.
