> [@Gagundathar](#): > > Kim Kardashian. > Do I need to elaborate? Kim and the like would be a lot less in the public eye if people stopped bitching about how much they are in the public eye. The vast majority of my exposure to these sorts of celebrities is people complaining about them. ---

Nancy Grace. The world would be a much more pleasant place if she were abducted by aliens and transported to the nearest black hole. ---

Without a doubt, Donald Trump. I used to think he was amusing and even enjoyed the first season of **The Apprentice**. Now he’s just a loudmouthed a-hole. ---

Many celebrities are harmless, if not annoying. But my beef is with the media that puts them in the magazines and the idiots who buy those magazines. ---

It’s so hard to pick just one. As much as I despise Nancy Grace, she was pretty funny playing herself (with no exaggeration, sadly) in _Raising Hope_. But if I had to pick one talentless actor who should never have had a career (or a wife) like he’s had, it would be Jerry O’Connell. The man is barely talented enough to stuff grocery bags, yet he’s had a long and fairly successful Hollywood career. That he married Rebecca Romjin is just the icing on the cake. ---

> [@detop](#): > > Jenny McCarthy My first answer. She’s the only active celebrity I can think off-hand whose discredited efforts have likely caused actual harm to large numbers of individuals, and will continue to do so for the foreseeable future. ---

This wasn’t, for me, nearly as difficult as I might have thought: **Andrew Dice Clay.** I can’t think of any performer I despise more. mmm ---

A few years back, a friend was working on a web start-up that was a news site. It didn’t have original content, but it linked to other news sites’ content so that a person could theoretically get all sides of a story. He sent me link to a beta version and asked for suggestions. My main suggestion was an option to block news about certain people. That way I would never see news about Paris Hilton, Kim Kardashian, Mike Tyson, etc. I did have a request for exceptions, such as death notice or sex tape. Sadly they did not incorporate my suggestion.
