The New York Daily News celebrity ‘stupid’ list

Published on December 4, 2007 at 5:25 AM

Most beautiful list, least attractive list, if something works it gets copied. Now we have the smartest and dumbest entertainers. In response to Entertainment Weekly naming the smartest celebrities in Hollywood, The New York Daily News has put their ‘dumb’ celebrity list together.

Entertainment Weekly proclaimed “Knocked Up” creator Judd Apatow as its smartest celebrity with other stars such as Steven Spielberg, Will Smith and Meryl Streep also making the list. EW based its list off of “book smarts and street smarts, financial genius and emotional intelligence.”

The Daily News qualified that ‘dumb’ not only mean low IQ but that other factors must also be taken into account including “poor life choices, style slipups and mishaps under the influence.”

Lohan got first prize for her “poor movie choices, delinquent behavior and bad taste in men.” Lohan shares her “dumbest” honor with stars such as , Kim Kardashian, Jessica Simpson and David Hasselhoff.  And yes Britney did make the list, verifying some semblence of this list’s credibility.

New York Daily News’ List of Dumbest People in Hollywood
1. Lindsay Lohan – poor movie choices (“I Know Who Killed Me”), delinquent behavior and bad taste in men.

2. Kim Kardashian – because it is sad when you leak your sex tape and nobody cares.

3. Spencer Pratt – who thinks his life on MTV’s “The Hills” is reality – and believes we think so, too.

4. Jeff Kwatinetz – the man that gave the OK for Britney Spears’ disastrous MTV Video Music Awards performance.

5. Shia LaBeouf – the 21-year-old “Transformers” star, for getting arrested while refusing to leave a Walgreens pharmacy.

6. Heidi Montag, reality television star

7. Jessica Simpson, singer

8 . Kiefer Sutherland, actor, recurring drunk driver

9. Tori Spelling, former teen actress/daughter of a media mogul

10. Rumer Willis, daughter of two famous people

11. Nick Hogan, son of pro wrestler

12. Courtney Love, aging rock chick, disaster

13. J.R. Rotem, music producer and possible Britney Spears baby daddy

14. Britney Spears, pop star, train wreck

15. Brad Garrett, comedian, paparazzi hater

16. Ken Paves, celebrity hairdresser, hanger-on

17. Jennifer Love Hewitt, actress

18. Brad Womack, indecisive Bachelor

19. Michael Jackson, former singer, mess

20. Cash Warren, celebrity boyfriend

I could nitpick this list all day but my biggest curiousity is why Cash Warren made the list.  Normal looking guy has Jessica Alba for a girlfriend and that makes him dumb?  I always considered Jennifer Love Hewitt to be a pretty smart cookie, I guess she lost style points in the ‘I am not fat’ flap (no pun intended?).
