5 Celebs We Can Do Without In 2009

Tom Cruise Couch JumpingWe love celebrities. We also love to hate celebrities. And then there are celebrities that we just need to get rid of. I had a rather long list including Flava Flav, Brett Michaels, K-Fed, Clay Aiken, etc. However, I narrowed it down to the five celebrities that I just don’t want to hear any more about this year.

I’m sick of them, so sick that if I see something about them on E! News or in a magazine I have to turn it off or stop reading. And then punch something and question the heavens above as to why they exist.

That’s not okay with me. So join me in my quest to rid the world of these offending celebs:

5. Tom Cruise- We loved you in Top Gun, Rain Man, and Mission Impossible, but the whole Scientology/keep Katie Holmes captive thing is down right annoying. There are not little aliens inside of you. You also happen to be a hypocrite: you criticized Brooke Shields for using antidepressants to take care of depression, an illness, and yet most recently were quoted saying, “They say, ‘Get your physical, get your medication, get your physical illnesses handled.’” Which is it Tom? Get your medication or don’t? You confuse me. And Valkyrie sucked. Go back to Xenu.

4. Jessica Simpson- Personally, I love your music, but you’ve become a fallen star. We don’t want to see you sticking your tongue down Tony Romo’s throat or licking cake off of his face. We don’t want to see your attempts to get more attention than your sister, who looks fab post-pregnancy, by the way. She’s overshadowed you, Jess, and good for her because she lived in yours for too long. Either get in the studio or stay out of the limelight.

3. Amy Winehouse- I’m sick of seeing emaciated, cracked out pictures of you. You have had a beautiful voice once upon a time, but the only thing we hear from you now is the sound of whiskey being poured down your troat. Your skeezy husband is just as crazy as you, and we don’t want to hear about him either. You have a problem. Please go to rehab (yes yes yes) and then make a comeback. Just look at Britney – she did it and now she’s hotter than ever.

2. Madonna- I never liked Madge, but I especially don’t like her this year. She cheated on her husband, who I’ve heard is a very nice man, with A-Rod of all people. Now she’s whoring herself out to a male model named Jesus. Not only am I sick of Madonna, but I’m actually afraid of her, too. Have you seen the veins sticking out of her arms? I think everyone can do without that in 2009.

1. Miley Cyrus- Possibly the most annoying “celebrity” of this day and age. The only reason she’s famous is because Billy Ray got her a TV show on the Disney Channel. She can’t act, and she can’t sing either (it’s a shame her songs are so catchy). And maybe her teeth can use a little work. I’m sick of seeing her face on every backpack and tshirt in the mall, and especially sick of seeing pictures of her pulling up her shirt and showing us her training bra. She’s fifteen. And I’ve already had enough.

    Man I hope Miley Cyrus disappears soon. Anyone that has been in the spotlight from a young age that long is destined to end up with a drinking or drug problem… right?

    hahah oh Miley. I never want to see a crazy person saying “Leave Miley Alone!!” on youtube in the future. She can go on to have a show on MTV focused on her living with her parents and deciding to get her own apartment and all the trouble that ensues (Hogans? Daddy’s Girls? all the bad tv we watched over break) as long as she doesn’t crash and burn.

    And Lohan missed the list how?

    I really couldn’t agree more on Miley. She’s a bit gross, yes. But I do think Paris should have made the list!

    Although, I think she’s 16 now.

    And Jessica is on tour with Rascal Flatts right now.

    I definitely agree with you on Miley Cyrus! I am really not that passionate about celebrities, but she is the most annoying girl, EVER and I don’t understand how people don’t realize this!

    Don’t forget Britney! I think her music still has its good moments, but really the whole crazy act and always seeing her in the magazines is getting old, and I’m sure she’s sick of it.

    Actually, Tom Cruise isn’t a hypocrite. Scientologists are against diagnosing and treating MENTAL illness, hence his comment re: Brooke Shields. His later comment was about getting a physical, and getting medicated for PHYSICAL ailments.

    So insane, yes, but not a hypocrite.

    I agree with the list, however, in 2009 I could definitely do without seeing Heidi and Spencer. UGH!

    @Salsa: Yes, but they’re not celebs. Not really.

    And god, get Miley OUT already. I’m tired of hearing her voice that sounds like she smokes a pack a day, and her pretty awful ripped-up tights. Plus, she’s instilled in every girl’s head that they need to drink as much coffee as possible to be cool…seeing as how she’s never photo’d without her handy Starbucks.

Tell us what you're thinking...
