Barbara Walters Most Fascinating People Of 2008 List Partially Revealed

Barbara Walters annual “10 Most Fascinating People” special is set to debut on December 4 on ABC, so to drum up some early buzz they released most of the names. Actually 7 of 10. The list is drawn from the year’s most prominent names in entertainment, sports, politics and pop culture, blah, blah, blah. Note the No. 1 Most Fascinating Person of 2008, hasn’t been named yet but of the people so far released I will put my leading candidate at the top of the list. So in otherwise no particular order here they are.

Michael Phelps
Frank Langella
Tom Cruise
Tina Fey
Will Smith
Rush Limbaugh
Miley Cyrus

Last year Harry Potter author J.K. Rowling took the number one spot.
