Top 11 Celebrity Messes Online



Open Mouth, Insert Foot, Then Other Foot


What Happened: The first America's Next Top Model, bride of Peter Brady (Christopher Knight), and former Hooters waitress Adrienne Curry can add another title to her resume: wacko blogger. In a recent post on her blog, Curry rails against Black History Month and BET -- even though "they play my favorite show of all time, 'In Living Color'" -- on the theory that both the holiday and the network are segregated and constitute discrimination. While there is certainly room for a dialogue on the topic, Curry misses that boat and instead spends paragraphs listing other groups who, in her view, suffered more and complained less than African Americans. Not exactly the diplomatic way to start a conversation -- not that anyone was probably interested in Curry's views on modern race relations, anyway.

Career Impact: Can't be good. As she's in the strange nether world of C-List celebrities who seem to exist more by mere osmosis from more successful and celebrated people, so it's hard to say where her fame or money really comes from. It's safe to say she won't be asked to the NAACP Image Awards this year, however.
