2006 in Review: Annoying Celebrities
Wednesday, December 27, 2006
There was no shortage of annoying celebrities this year. They're the celebs who hog the spotlight for really no reason all. Every time you hear about them you scream, "Who gives a shit?! Just go away!" Let's take a look at the celebrities we hope to hear a lot less from in 2007. The following is strictly a matter of OPINION...
Britney Spears
The paparazzi were working overtime just to follow Britney Spears around this year. The year began with her almost dropping her baby, driving with him on her lap and let's not forget the time she put him in the car seat the wrong way. The year ended with her kicking K-hole to the curb and partying like a drunken teenager. And as she partied, she wore no underwear. Besides the divorce, do really really need to know any of these things about Britney? The constant media coverage of Britney was much more annoying than she was this year.
Paris Hilton
Her shitty album proves what we've known all along: Paris Hilton has no talent. At 25 years old, perhaps she should start acting like an adult instead of clubbing everynight like some 18-year-old who's just gotten her first taste of freedom at college.
Lindsay Lohan
Everyone's favorite firecrotch could not stay out the media this year. Her partying and underaged drinking continued all year long, despite her admission that she had been attending Alcoholics Anonymous meetings for a year. By the way, she's in AA at 20 years old, before she's even legally allowed to drink. Talk about problems.
Jessica Simpson
Besides Paris Hilton, Jessica Simpson may be the celebrity who annoys the Daily Edition the most. Her ditsy, bordering on retarded ways and horrendous singing voice are enough to make anyone change the channel post haste. She spent the year picking up the pieces after a failed marriage to Nick Lachey. She also released that horrible song, "A Public Affair," with its extra annoying video that featured the over-exposed Eva Longoria. All of her nonesense came to a hilarious climax in December when she screwed up the words of Dolly Parton's "9 to 5" during a tribute on the Kennedy Center Honors. Simpson was so embarassed that she demanded she be edited out of the show.
Tom Cruise & Katie Holmes
We could not get enough of "TomKat" because they hid their newborn, Suri, from the public for months. They confirmed the baby was in fact born on the first episode of Katie Couric's CBS Evening News by providing her with exclusive pictures. Tom and Katie finally tied the knot in November with every tabloid magazine show traveling to Italy to cover it. Does any of this really matter at a time of war?
Brad Pitt & Angelina Jolie
Stop adopting children and stop publicizing yourselves everytime you travel to a foreign country. Angelina Jolie seems to have been given sainthood this year. How quickly we forget about what a wackjob she is. Remember her marriage to Billy Bob Thornton? The vials of blood. The bizarre tattooes and PDA's. Let's also not forget about the time she seemed a little too close to her brother at the Oscars. Yet, she is the UNHCR Goodwill Ambassador.
Madonna
Madonna was harshly criticized for adopting a baby from Malawi. It was a story that would not go away. The constant coverage of her adoption, which the average person could give two shits about, easily makes Madonna one of the most annoying people of the year.
Anna Nicole Smith
It's God awful that Smith lost her only son at such a young age this year. But, a wedding just a few days later? And, does anyone really give a damn about who the father is?
The Insider, Access Hollywood, Entertainment Tonight...etc.
All of these shows are trash in its dirtiest form. Do we really need to travel to Italy for Tom Cruise and Katie Holme's wedding? And, do we need to know where Jennifer Aniston was spotted sipping a latte last night? NO! All of this mindless drivel and more is courtesy of such celebrity magazine shows. The worst offender seems to be The Insider. The smarmy Pat O'Brien drools over the likes of Anna Nicole Smith and let's not forget those anorexic twins they drag out every sweeps just to see if they're still alive.
Blogger: The New Version
Blogger may not be a celebrity but its new version which I'm using right now is just as annoying as one. The new version of Blogger seems to be plagued with problems. Publishing a picture seems to be too much to ask and don't try to use html within the text, unless you want to fuck everything up. Next time you want to improve things, Blogger, get all the kinks out before launching.
