This list has everything from people wanting their 20 minutes of fame to people who only think they are famous or still popular. The first list is from a survey done by Time Magazine and the second list is my personal choices for this honor, see if you agree with either list:
Joe the Plumber
Ashley Alexandra Dupré Eliot Spitzer's Call-girl
Levi Johnston (father of Bristol Palin’s child)
Henry Hager (husband of Jenna Bush)
Jason Castro (season 7 American Idol)
Josh Hamilton (outfielder for Texas Rangers)
Tricia Walsh-Smith (internet divorce lady, who posted rants on YouTube)
Martin Eisenstadt (the hoax writer, when means he does not really exist)
Dina and Ali Lohan (mother and sister of Lindsay Lohan)
iPhone Girl (girl from the iPhone ads, apparently she got more attention than she wanted and for good reason)
Now the list above was cute, but none of those people are what I would call celebrities. So here is my list of celebrities who have outlived their stardom:
Paris Hilton
Paula Abdul
Nicole Ritchie
Kim Kardashian and her sisters Khloe and Kourtney
Vanessa Hudgens
Renee Zellweger
Cameron Diaz
Megan Fox
I like my celebrities to have a little class and end up in the news based on their work, not their personal lives or current arrest. The thing about celebrities is that they will eventually let you down. I only know of one of my favorites who has never dishonored himself or his family and that is Kent McCord (Adam-12 and Farscape). Why can’t all celebrities have a little class and stop acting like they can do whatever they want?
You rarely hear of a celebrity doing anything good, if they made the news it is either in an interview or because of something negative. Some of it is just gossip, but there is usually a small thread of truth to the gossip. In the list from Time Magazine, I see several people who are only famous because of whom they are connected with (Dina and Ali Lohan, Levi Johnston, Henry Hager and Ashley Alexandra Dupré).
Can anyone out there name someone I missed?
