It’s the last day of the year and time for Bumpshack’s annual list of ‘The 10 Most Hated Celebrities of 2009′ according to myself and some of your favorite celebrity bloggers I surveyed and gathered opinions from for this list.
The inaugural edition of Most Hated Celebs, back in 2006, is one of our most popular posts of all-time. The story was featured on TMZ, hundreds of blogs, radio, tabloids, TV, and was highlighted by my appearance on MSNBC Live.
Several bloggers joined me again this year to help discuss the ‘Most Hated Celebrities,’ as well as many friends, who sent me their lists of who they thought should make the final cut.
Over 32 names were submitted this year for the list and you will find photos and celeb bloggers reasons on why the ‘Top 10′ was so hated in 2009 below. You will also find a bonus list of the ‘Most Hated’ celebs #11-20 (complete with blogger snark as well).
Without further ado here is the ‘Top 10 20 Most Hated Celebrities of 2009′…..
The 10 Most Hated Celebs of 2009
- Kanye West (70 votes, last year #6) - Imma’ let you finish but Kanye West was the ‘Most Hated Celebrity of 2009.’ Kanye - which is Swahili for ‘the only one’ - took egocentricity to a new level in 2009 when he interrupted Taylor Swift’s acceptance speech for Best Female Video at the 2009 MTV Video Music Awards to tell the audience “Imma’ let you finish…” that Swift didn’t deserve the award because, “…Beyonce had one of the best videos of all-time.” It’s one thing to take shots at former President Bush over Katrina, but when an intoxicated Kanye attacked the innocent singer/songwriter of broken-hearted, lily peace country songs he outraged dozens of his fellow celebrities and millions of viewers and fans of Swift. Kanye spent the next month crying on Jay Leno’s couch and apologizing every chance he could before the rehab angels summoned him for a 30 day detox. West is the Ty Cobb of Hollywood — extremely talented with beats but almost hated by all. - Bumpshack (Joshua Holmes)
- Chris Brown (56 votes) - Where can we begin with this guy? What’s not to hate? This natural born douche reached an all time low when he beat his [then] woman, Rihanna to a bloody pulp. Later on he had the balls to call her out for sharing her story, saying that it should have remained between the two of them. Brown then released an album after this massive scandal, goes to Walmart and sees it missing from the shelves and blasts the store on Twitter. He then discovered it was sold out (who the hell is buying his crap?!) and deletes his Twitter. I don’t know who I hate more. Chris Brown or the justice system for letting him off with a little trash pick up. No one who beats a woman should be selling albums. - Backseat Cuddler (Jenn G)
- Jon & Kate Gosselin (54 votes) - Jon and Kate Gosselin have always had their fair share of detractors, but having their marriage implode in the media over the last twelve months has this couple on just about everyone’s hate list for 2009. Prior to the breakup Kate was the main attractor of vehement disgust because of her over-bearing personality and brow-beating of the quiet and seemingly innocent Jon. But, getting out from under Kate’s thumb allowed Jon Gosselin to show his true colors - the colors of an 18-year-old college kid that just wanted to get drunk and have sex. Numerous young mistresses surfaced including his “main girl” Hailey Glassman, who even went on a trip with Jon to France for a vacation aboard the “Douchetanic,” a yacht owned by fashion designer and Douchebag icon Christian Audigier. Kate stayed at home trying to keep the show alive while Jon went out and partied and the end result has been a huge increase in the number of people repulsed more by Jon than Kate. Now “Jon and Kate Plus 8” has been reduced to “Jon and Kate Plus Hate” as the world looks down its nose in disgust at the couple that seems to have ruined their own family in the pursuit of money, fame and bong-puffing 22-year-old party girls. - Starcasm (Asa Hawks)
- Spencer Pratt & Heidi Montag (Speidi) (40 votes, last year #2) - Even Al Rocker can’t stand to breathe the same air as Heidi Montag and Spencer Pratt. Perhaps it’s the culmination of their stupidity that makes us hate them. These are the morons who confused Jesus with Harry Potter and prayed with Patti Blagojevich for him to use his baby Christ powers to smote Janice Dickinson on “I’m a Celebrity Get Me Outta Here.” While Heidi’s hypocrisy makes kittens cry, her Robodouche of a sidekick flaps his jaws with the impression someone actually cares what crap falls out of the whine hole located in his creepy flesh beard. It’s easy to hate these two and I am pretty sure they were on Bush’s Axis of Evil list. - Hollywood Dame (Cara)
- Tiger Woods (35 votes) - From most complete athlete and family man to party beast with a poor taste for cocktail waitresses, golfer Tiger Woods completely shocked the world when his dark and seedy side was revealed. The 34 year-old married to a beautiful former model, Elin Nordegren, apparently kept a double life of a sex addict, who would do absolutely anything and anyone for another fix, in conflict with the image of the perfect man. Why we hate him? Because he sold us billions of dollars in products, through his endorsements, based on his image when in fact Tiger was even sluttier than Michael Jordan in his prime. - Gossip Teen (Gossip Gal)
- Michael Lohan (23 votes) - I have never seen someone try to gather fame off his children like this man does. Although the ‘jump from the bridge’ stunt on Twitter was from a fake Michael, the real Michael opened up his own account shortly after and started to threaten people that he was going to sue them. I suggest he shouldn’t be such a fame mongrel and stay out of the spotlight. His name dropping and incessant blabbing about Lindsay’s drug addictions that she may or may not have is getting boring. Move on!! - Knocked Up Celebs (Taylor Blue)
- Octomom (21 votes) - Nadya Suleman aka Octomom has become one of the most hated celebrities due to her decision to have fourteen children without having a job to support them. But why should that be Suleman’s concern when she can rely on welfare to feed her children? This woman somehow managed to talk some quack doctor to implant eight embryos when she had six young children at home already. Octomom obviously found her fifteen minutes of fame but at the cost of her own children. This woman also wants to be Angelina Jolie but the only similarity is the big lips and bus load of children. - Stupid Celebrities (Monya)
- The Kardashians (17 votes, last year #15) - Kim Kardashian is certainly toned, and she is definitely very pretty. Yet I see her as a royal diva, the kind that only eats green M&Ms that aren’t visibly touching any other color and refuses to use the bathroom unless there are rose petals in the bowl. If you really think about it, all of these new found riches for the Kardashians can be traced back to one single moment: the release of Kim’s sex tape with D-grade rapper Ray J. If it weren’t for that tape being “leaked,” Kim never would have become famous and her sisters, Khloe and Kourtney, never would have been discovered. It’s time to place the blame with the culprit, Ray J. - Allie Is Wired (Allie Shain)
- Lindsay Lohan (16 votes) - It is often hard to tell if Lindsay is that ‘hated’ or if people just feel so sorry for her and the downward spiral she continues to whistle, smoke, snort, and slide down. Sadly, most fans and observers expect a tragic end to Lindsay’s life, much along the lines of Anna Nicole Smith or Brittany Murphy. Her on-again/off-again girlfriend Samantha Ronson only appears to intensify her instability. Maybe it’s time Linds gave men another chance to screw her life up. Lohan’s mother, Dina, and #6 on this list (see above) have only caused damage to LiLo in their attempts to cash in on their own parasite fame. Her once promising career is lost in the Bermuda Triangle of child stars gone wrong until she can sober up and surround herself with people that will bring her calm and tranquility. - Bumpshack (Joshua Holmes)
- Carrie Prejean (15 votes) - In a world of dualities, Carrie Prejean is the queen. What we hate about her is something we all possess, yet loath about ourselves—hypocrisy. In 2009, we collectively reminded her that those who live in glass Malibu Barbie houses ought not cast stones, lest they shatter another reflective surface from which to admire themselves. - Right Celebrity (Jenivieve Elly)
