Daily News lists Top 50 Dumbest People in Hollywood

[sharon_b]

And the most contrived list of the week award goes to ...
Entertainment Weekly magazine, which waded through the intellectual wasteland of Los Angeles to create a list of the 50 smartest people in Hollywood, released the list Thursday.

"Knocked Up" creator Judd Apatow leads the brainiac pack, with Ben Affleck holding up the back end at No. 50.
The mag asserts that smart could mean any number of things: "It encompasses book smarts and street smarts, financial genius and emotional intelligence."

Picking through the cerebral corridors of America's most vapid city seems a daunting task.
An easier route: The "Top 50 Dumbest People in Hollywood."
Dumb doesn't necessarily correspond to a low IQ. There are poor life choices, style slipups and mishaps under the influence to take into account.

Topping a highly unscientific Daily News list of the "Dumbest" is Lindsay Lohan. The reason: poor movie choices ("I Know Who Killed Me"), delinquent behavior and bad taste in men.

The rest of the top five:

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 okay 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.

The other "winners":

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

Britney should be higher on that list, y'all!

[Mira]

This list is so much more accurate than that 50 smartest people list I posted!

[DitaPage*]

Adrienne will blog about this i imagine.

[Gen X EJC]

this is pretty much the only top whatever list where I can honestly say I agree with all of the choices.

dayum.

[Anne2007]

I think they forgot Katie Holmes and Tom Cruise. Tom had a lot of people fooled before he jumped the couch.

other than that, pretty accurate list.

[McJag]

I am surprised they could narrow it down.

[brownfx]

Who did Paris Hilton pay to stay off that list.

[carrie2008]

Great list, though I am also shocked Paris wasn't on there especially for her little jail episode this summer...

[smf]

agree w/ list ,it should be longer though

[Sm0kah0ntas]

This list is totally ridiculous!! Raging bigots bundled together in the mid 20's, Jennifer Love Hewitt is 17, while someone like Paris Hilton is not even mentioned

Glad I don't buy this trash!
