Top 10 Most Annoying Celebrities of 2009 December 29, 2009

10.  Tom Cruise – I can’t help but roll my eyes when I read or see anything related to Tom Cruise. Perhaps it’s the fact that I truly believe he has his wife Katie Holmes under some sort of Scientology-related spell, or that he apparently just set aside $75 million for his next child, when I think of Tom Cruise, I immediately think obnoxious. He’s only #10 because he managed to reproduce one of the most beautiful Hollywood offspring ever. Tom, Suri just saved your ass.

9. Perez Hilton – My my Perez, you’ve become quite the hypocrite. You bash Isaiah Washington (Dr. Burke on “Grey’s Anatomy”) for calling his co-star a “faggot.” Okay, fine. But then you posted that ridiculous video accusing will.i.am of the Black Eyed Peas of punching you, when it was really someone else. You then called him a “faggot” and never even apologized when you found out it wasn’t him. But what really pisses me off is the fact that you have NO boundaries whatsoever. With the recent passing of actress Brittany Murphy, you let that fat mouth of yours run wild. You publicly berated her to no end when she was alive, then have the audacity to kiss ass by offering your condolences to her family and acting sad and shocked, all the while insisting that her death was the result of drugs. If it was, that’s a private matter. But who the hell are you to make such a strong assumption? Oh, and not to mention that since you’ve found “fame,” you’ve hired three ghost writers to update your site… three people who can’t seem to spell anything correctly.

8. Taylor Lautner – The first of two “Twilight” stars to make this list, I’m convinced Taylor Lautner’s only famous because he has a sick six pack. Sorry tweens, but it’s true. He has nothing to offer but a pretty face. And don’t even get me started on his hosting gig on “Saturday Night Live.” He can’t act for shit.

7. Tiger Woods – Obviously Tiger Woods wouldn’t be on this list had it not been for his recent… indiscretions. The whole situation is way too overexposed, from the headlines to the number of hookers (sorry, it’s true) that have come out claiming they’ve slept with the golf pro, it’s just like “Whoa, enough already!” I was sick of caring after Day 3. I don’t care that his ship is still docked. I don’t care that he’s losing endorsements. I mean, we’re talking about a golf player here. It’s not like it’s a football player or anyone important. Just kidding. Kind of.

6. Lindsay Lohan – Poor Lindsay. She’s the butt of every joke, so much so that it’s kind of a right of passage to put her on any list like this.  From her shiteous TV movie “Labor Pains” that was supposed to be released on the big screen, to her disastrous attempt at working as a fashion designer with the Ungaro collection, all signs are pointing to “FAIL.” Why would I want to wear anything Lindsay Lohan designs when she looks like a coked up addict all the time?

5. Speidi – Oh my God, if I ever saw Spencer Pratt on the street I think I’d hit him. And I’m not even lying. His blondeness scares me, especially when he rocks that God awful beard thing. And Heidi Montag-Pratt, who was once so sweet, has turned into a legitimate moron. I don’t think I’ve ever witnessed someone so stupid. Ever. But I think Heidi is a product of “Cruise Syndrome,” where her husband controls everything about her a la Tom Cruise and Katie Holmes. The only reason they’re only # 5 is because Spencer is frickin hilarious on “The Hills.” He may be a huge asshole, but at least he’s a funny asshole. But I also can’t help but side with Spencer with wanting to get a vasectomy. Maybe what the Mayans predicted in 2012 was the spawn of Speidi, because I’m pretty sure everyone in Hollywood would run for the hills. No pun intended.

4. Jon Gosselin – He really REALLY pisses me off. I don’t know if it’s those huge cubic zirconia’s he’s wearing in his ears or that he’s still wearing Ed Hardy t-shirts, but holy shit is this father of eight annoying! He suddenly shuts down production on his show when TLC decided they wouldn’t feature him as often and he’s constantly roaming around places like Las Vegas and Los Angeles with a flock of girls surrounding him. Hasn’t he learned to keep it in his pants eight kids ago? And get off of my TV screen and go support the football team you have at home, you jackass.

3. Rihanna – I’m sick of people sticking up for Rihanna because Chris Brown hit her. Didn’t she throw the first punch anyway? Okay, I’m not promoting or condoning domestic violence, but it seems to me that RiRi is making a buck off of this bullshit. And she finally decides to go on “20/20” to talk about the incident the week her craptastic album is released? Coincidence? Don’t think so. But the real problem is the fact that she’s not even talented. This chick can’t sing, I mean really. And her songs are equally awful. But it’s like “Ohhh, because she’s BFF with Jay-Z and Kanye she must be the next Great One.” Nah. Stop shoving her in my face. And there’s nothing I hate more than when people try so hard to be different. Stop with the hair changing and absurd clothing choices. No one’s buying your shtick.

2. Kristen Stewart – Why is she an actress? Seriously. Kristen Stewart is the most ungrateful witch in the industry, and I’m being nice. She has zero personality, has the most obnoxious, monotone voice, and can only crack a smile when Rob Pattinson is around (who’s fug too, by the way). “Twilight” is crap, plain and simple. The books were so-so to begin with, and now Twi-hards are going buck wild over this chick as Bella in a bunch of films that suck.  And I swear, if she bites her lip one more time, in one more movie role, I’m going to write to someone.

1. Taylor Swift – Some may agree with me on this. Or I may lose friends over this choice for the #1 Most Annoying Celebrity, but I stand by my decision. Ugh, Taylor Swift. I give her props for being a decent songwriter at the tender age of 20. Her songs are catchy and pretty well written, but she can’t perform live for shit. She’s pitchy and never on key most of the time, so the fact that she’s winning these Entertainer of the Year awards and being nominated for Best Female Performer of the Year is enough to make me wanna vom. And she’s everywhere. EVERYWHERE! On TV, magazines, the internet. Stop crying over boys in your songs and start writing about something more meaningful… like how long it takes to straighten your hair and that’s why you always wear it curly like a five-year-old. And what makes me even more mad is that people like her because she’s the “anti-Miley.” At least Miley sluts it up once in a while. I don’t trust anyone who doesn’t have a wild side at 20-years-old.

Highlights from the MTV VMAs!

Filed under: MTV Video Music Awards — Alexandra @ 10:14 pm

Look RIGHT HERE to catch up on all the crazy stuff that is happening at the VMAs as we speak!

– During Taylor Swift’s acceptance speech for “Best Female Video,” about 15 seconds in, Kanye West jumped on the stage, grabbed her microphone and said the following: “Yo Taylor. I’m really happy for you. I’m gonna let you finish but Beyonce had one of the best videos of all time. One of the best videos of all time!” The camera panned to Beyonce, who looked mortified, and back to Taylor, who looked embarrassed and scared. He was quickly escorted off stage and booed. But poor Taylor’s speech was cut short! Click HERE to see it all happen!

Britney Spears won the award for “Best Pop Video” and accepted her award via telecast because she’s on tour. HOWEVER, could it be that she’s secretly performing tonight?! A little birdie told me so. She’s actually on a HUGE break from her tour. Was she backstage pretending to be on tour? I think so!

Green Day pulled up audience members during their set. Classic.

Diddy and Jamie Lynn Sigler presented the award for “Best Male Video.” Diddy mentions Kanye West’s name and the audience booed, chanting “Taylor, Taylor!” Diddy opened the envelope to announce the winner and hesitated. It’s Kanye, isn’t it. Nope, Diddy psyched us all out, because T.I. won!

Cyndi Lauper literally just appeared in a taped skit with Eminem and Tracy Morgan. Love love LOVE her!

Pink performed “Sober” and did an entire acrobatic routine up in the air while singing…  with a pink pastie over her left boob. She was incredible!

Beyonce won the “Video of the Year” award, and mentioned how much it meant the first time she took the stage. She then brought Taylor Swift so Taylor could give a proper speech. Such an amazing moment. Beyonce’s a classy lady. She has my respect.

 

Is Britney Performing at the VMAs?!

Filed under: Britney Spears,MTV Video Music Awards — Alexandra @ 10:03 pm

There’s a poem on Britney.com that’s making the rounds. Could it be that my BritBrit is performing at the Video Music Awards tonight?! Check out the poem below:

Y’all keep shouting, “Gimme, gimme, gimme more,”
But little do ya know, some surprises are in store.

No matter how many gallons of Celebrity Juice you drink,
There’s more around the corner, so much more than you think.

So please quit breathing heavy, I hate to hear you sigh,
I know I drive you crazy… oops! I did it again, didn’t I?

As much as I lov3 contests, that isn’t what this is about,
I’ll tell you soon enough, ’cause I hate seeing B fans pout.

Now listen very closely, turn your radar up on high,
It’s something fr3sh and new, ok? I’d never tell a lie.

So sit back and relax, be patient one more tim3,
The answer can be found within this little rhyme.

 

Megan Fox Gets Slammed!

Filed under: Celebrity Stupid,Megan Fox,Say What?! — Alexandra @ 1:44 pm

Not like that,  get your heads out of the gutter.

Megan Fox is known to make some outlandish comments during interviews, even referring to working with director Michael Bay as working with Hitler. Ouch.

But some crew members from Transformers have come to Bay’s defense. They’ve written quite the scathing letter to Miss  Megan and it was posted on Bay’s official website by some guy named Nelson, who is the administrator of the site.  It is definitely a MUST READ:

“This is an open letter to all Michael Bay fans. We are three crew members that have worked with Michael for the past ten years. Last week we read the terrible article with inflammatory, truly trashing quotes by the Ms. FoxMichael Bay. This letter is to set a few things straight. about

“Yes, Megan has great eyes, a tight stomach we spray with glycerin, and an awful silly Marilyn Monroe tattoo plastered on her arm that we cover up to keep the moms happy.

Michael found this shy, inexperienced girl, plucked her out of total obscurity thus giving her the biggest shot of any young actresses’ life. He told everyone around to just trust him on his choice. He granted her the starring role in Transformers, a franchise that forever changed her life; she became one of the most googled and oogled women on earth. She was famous! She was the next Angelina Jolie, hooray! Wait a minute, two of us worked with Angelina ‘ second thought ‘ she’s no Angelina. You see, Angelina is a professional.

“We know this quite intimately because we’ve had the tedious experience of working with the dumb-as-a-rock Megan Fox on both Transformers movies. We’ve spent a total of 12 months on set making these two movies.

“We are in different departments; we can’t give our names because sadly doing so in Hollywood could lead to being banished from future Paramount work. One of us touches Megan’s panties, the other has the often s–ty job of pulling Ms. Sour pants out of her trailer, while another is near the Panaflex camera that helps to memorialize the valley girl on film.

Megan has the press fooled. When we read those magazines we wish we worked with that woman. Megan knows how to work her smile for the press. Those writers should try being on set for two movies, sadly she never smiles. The cast, crew and director make Transformers a really fun and energetic set. We’ve traveled around the world together, so we have never understood why Megan was always such ‘ the grump of the set?

“When facing the press, Megan is the queen of talking trailer trash and posing like a porn star. And yes we’ve had the unbearable time of watching her try to act on set, and yes, it’s very cringe-able. So maybe, being a porn star in the future might be a good career option. But make-up beware, she has a paragraph tattooed to her backside (probably due her rotten childhood) easily another 45 minutes in the chair!

“So when the three of us caught wind of Ms. Fox, pontificating yet again in some publication (like she actually has something interesting to say) blabbing her trash mouth about a director whom we three have grown to really like. She compared working with Michael, to ‘working with Hitler‘. We actually don’t think she knows who Hitler is by the way. But we wondered how she doesn’t realize what a disgusting, fully uneducated comment this was? Well, here let’s get some facts straight.

“Say what you want about Michael ‘ yes at times he can be hard, but he’s also fun, and he challenges everyone for a reason ‘ he simply wants people to bring their ‘A’ game. He comes very prepared, knows exactly what he wants, involves the crew and expects everyone to follow through with his or her best, and that includes the actors. He’s one of the hardest working directors out there.

“He gets the best from his crews, many of whom have worked with him for 15 years. And yes, he’s loyal, one of the few directors we’ve encountered who lowered his fee by millions to keep Transformers in the United States and California, so he could work with his own crew.

Megan says that Transformers was an unsafe set? Come on Megan, we know it is a bit more strenuous then the playground at the trailer park, but you don’t insult one of the very best stunt and physical effects teams in the business! Not one person got hurt!

“And who is the real Megan Fox? She is very different than the academy nominee and winning actors we’ve all worked around. She’s as about ungracious a person as you can ever fathom. She shows little interest in the crew members around her. We work to make her look good in every way, but she’s absolutely never appreciative of anyone’s hard work. Never a thank you. All the crewmembers have stopped saying hi to Ms. Princess because she never says hello back. It gets tiring. Many think she just really hates the process of being an actress.

Megan has been late to the sets many times. She goes through the motions that make her exude this sense of misery. We’ve heard the A.D’s piped over the radio that Megan won’t walk from her trailer until John Turturro walk’s first. John’s done seventy-five movies and she’s made two!

“Never expect Megan to attend any of the 15 or so crew parties like all the other actors have. And then there’s the classless night she blew off The Royal Prince of Jordan who made a special dinner for all the actors. She doesn’t know that one of the grips daughters wanted to visit their daddy’s work to meet Megan, but he wouldn’t let them come because he told them ’she is not nice.’

“The press certainly doesn’t know her most famous line. On our first day in Egypt, the Egyptian government wouldn’t let us shoot because of a permit problem as the actors got ready in make up at the Four Seasons Hotel. Michael tried to make the best of it; he wanted to take the cast and crew on a private tour of the famous Giza pyramids. God hold us witness, Megan said, “I can’t believe Michael is f—ing forcing us to go to the f—ing pyramids!” I guess this is the ‘Hitler guy’ she is referring to.

So this is the Megan Fox you don’t get to see. Maybe she will learn, but we figure if she can sling insults, then she can take them too. Megan really is a thankless, classless, graceless, and shall we say unfriendly b—-. It’s sad how fame can twist people, and even sadder that young girls look up to her. If only they knew who they’re really looking up to.”

“But ‘Fame’ is fleeting. We, being behind the scenes, seen em’ come and go. Hopefully Michael will have Megatron squish her character in the first ten minutes of Transformers 3. We can tell you that will make the crew happy! -Loyal Transformers Crew

UPDATE: According to JustJared.com, Michael Bay removed the letter from his website, but said the following: “I don’t condone the crew letter to Megan. And I don’t condone Megan’s outlandish quotes. But her crazy quips are part of her crazy charm. The fact of the matter I still love working with her, and I know we still get along. I even expect more crazy quotes from her on Transformers 3. Michael

Interesting, interesting. I’m thoroughly amused.

And replacing Paula Abdul is…….

ELLEN DEGENERES!

“DeGeneres will sit alongside Simon Cowell, Randy Jackson and Kara DioGuardi and offer her own unique perspective to the contestants throughout the competition,” Fox television said in a statement.

“I’m going to have a day job and a night job,” DeGeneres said at her talk show taping Wedneday. She also assured her audience that The Ellen DeGeneres Show will continue. “This is so exciting for me.”

I’ll definitely watch this season, now!
