Who is the most pointless celebrity?

[AB Asks]

A new formula has emerged to work out who is the most pointless celebrity. The formula uses such factors as the person's earnings and how many people have searched their name on Google. It seems now that all you need do is get a boob job and a footballer boyfriend to be famous. Who do you think is the most pointless celebrity?

[squarebear]

Anyone from Big Brother. Those who think that appearing on a TV show makes them a celebrity. What happened to the old celebrities who sung, dance or told jokes?

These "new style" celebrities are just there in your face. They don't do anything worthy of being called celebrity.

[Katie~77]

You make it sound like it's easy to have a boob job and a footballer boyfriend. Can you imagine waking up next to Wayne Rooney every morning?????x

[Reverandfunk]

It would be like Planet of the Apes

[gina32]

jonathon ross, whats he all about??

[Reverandfunk]

I agree with Big Brother, closely followed by celebrities in the jungle, X factor

[Panic Button]

At least the Jungle people have a previous reason for celebrity status.

The BB people like Jade Goody have no reason to clutter up the pages of magazines.

[squarebear]

Exactly Panic Button. Good grief, they even gave a TV show to that girl who screamed all the time (was it Nicki?). Why? What is the point in that?

[China Doll]

In no particular order...

People from Big Brother
Any band/popstar formed from shows such as X Factor
People who are famous for having big boobs
Paris Hilton

[Reverandfunk]

I think it is a sad reflection of our society when we make a "thing" like Jade a multi millionairess

[MatydaLover]

Many famous people are known for what they have done ... David Beckham is famous for his football, Ernest Shackleton for his leadership, Dame Judy Dench for her acting.

If someome is known just for being a "celebrity" and not for anything they have acheived, then I say all "celebrities" are pointless.

but wouldn't all those factors be just as useful in identifying a real celebrity?

[Octavius]

Surely the formula should be based on talent and societal worth, not wealth and popularity?

[Octavius]

This week, my candidates for the most pointless celebrity will be mostly Peter Doperty & Amy Mingehouse. Actually, make that the �years�.

Both worthless and talentless, but apprently quite wealthy, and according to every paper out there, very popular.

It's ME! Here I am in action http://www.theanswerbank.co.uk/ChatterBank/Que stion481540.html

[Doc Spock]

Just seen a book advertised, lewis hamilton biog called "my story"

wtf is that.

I drive cars fast, I beat other people I have a lot of money and am pi55ing of to Swiss land.

It must be the only biography consisting of 4 lines.

[Reverandfunk]

Callum Best is a good one, bald, ugly and his dad was a drunk

[Octavius]

I dunno Rev, Chantelle Houghton�s may have had less lines, just used a bigger font.
Apparently according to a recent survey, Jordan (Katie Price) was the most pointless celebrity, beating Jade & Britney only by the breadth of a g-string.

I have worked through the formula with some slight adjustments as I have suggested above and can conclude that the most pointless celebrity ever ever (ad infinitum and beyond) is Kerry Katona. So there you have it, conclusive undeniable scientific and mathematical proof.

[Pippa68]

There are far too many to mention..the majority of celebrities are pointless and I wouldn't spit on them if they were on fire.

Apart from Simon le Bon.

[LoftyLottie]

All of them that have 'Celebrity' status, but have never actually achieved anything else 'prior to' having celebrity status (including those who have achieved celebrity status by virtue of being the child or partner of a true celebrity.

That rules out dozens and dozens.
