The Worst Celebrity Blogs-8

Margaret Cho

Margaret Cho's online body of work might not have made the cut, but then we found the all-important menstrual stain post, as well as the Mr. Cameltoe unitard layout. Perhaps it was the blog entry in which she confessed to holding herself back from a "throw down" with an elderly woman that made us decide that the comedian was perfect for our list of infamy. And that was just January...

Ross the Jay Leno Intern

You might know him as Ross the Jay Leno Intern. We see as him as the guy that might make you reconsider your relationship with sharp objects. Many of his blog posts are of the video variety, and unfortunately for everyone north of two-years-old, Ross has affectionately dubbed the collection "Talky Blog." Just to drive the stake in further, an assortment of text-based posts actually go on about Talky Blog Awards, or they just kill us by introducing more Talky. We found the one about an ill coworker entitled "Daria is Sick" was really relevant to all of us. If you live in Ross World, that is...

Pat Sajak

Who would've thunk it? The host of Wheel of Fortune, the quintessential American game show, is an avid blogger. Sajak earns our nod for worst celebrity blog for repeatedly taking a heroic stand against reason. Unfortunately for scientists and the experts who brought you the Kyoto Protocol, one of good old Pat's posts denies humankind's hand in creating global warming and seeks to spread the truth to all who will read. Not to mention the fact that he feels like it's so hard espousing his views when the doggone liberal media distorts his -- we mean, the truth all the time. And don't get him started on the evil internet...

Rosie O'Donnell

Wait, didn't Rosie O'Donnell recently make our Best Celebrity Blogs story? She did! But we decided that Rosie's work is a two-headed monster, equal parts wonderful and loony. Those of you that caught our "Best of" piece might remember how scared, lonely and used we felt when Rosie tried to channel Sylvia Plath. For the rest of you, these lines from a post called "No More" should explain why Rosie's inner poet should stay inside and not play with the other kids:

searching
from near and far
an HDTV
some fancy car
restaurant hot spot
drug de jour
too much now
there is no more

Jeff Bridges

Jeff Bridges makes the list as a lesson in potential squandered to all the youngsters out there. The man who brought you The Dude in The Big Lebowski maintains a blog that conceptually seems kind of cool. Various sketches of things like surfing penguins and a doodle of Bridges succumbing to a dental chair make up the site. Unfortunately, his Dudeness cops out on us by linking these drawings to news sites, trailers and Amazon.com pages instead of giving us more personal, inventive substance with his style. Take note out there: If you tantalize us with an artsy, original blog façade, you should link to more of yourself, not less. Where were you when we needed you, Jeff?

Victoria Beckham

Ah, narcissism. It could be said that blogging is all about people indulging themselves in...themselves. Victoria Beckham, former Spice Girl and wife of LA Galaxy soccer star David Beckham, reinforces such a notion with a blog that features endless photos of herself in Paris, on Ugly Betty, at Fashion Week, on magazine covers, going on ad nauseum. Eschewing the idea that a blog might discuss, opine, inform or share the deeply personal, Beckham's blog takes the cake for most vanity ("This is how you pose for pictures," she tell us.). If you want a fun activity, though, just go through the pictures and see how many you count before there is an image of someone other than Posh Spice.

Courtney Love

Courtney Love's disaster of a blog makes William Faulkner's stream-of-consciousness technique look straightforward. The former frontwoman for the now-defunct rock band Hole fully embraces tangents and rambling in her posts, discussing important things like her bangs and a messy financial situation in one extra long sentence("i have faith that the integrity of the three men i must depend on to get the facts of this thrown out thrown uyp psyhco puzzle will communicate to each other- i must say Sparkarts Naveen is a dammed GENIUS and theres a reason to not have forums at onesx website- its just a bucmnh of trouble why not offer more music and cool merch"). Large, indecipherable blocks of text, misspellings ("absouloute") and a general incoherence lead us to crown Courtney Love's journal as the Blog Most Likely to Implode.

Avril Lavigne

Turns out that Avril Lavigne isn't so complicated. It seems that her handlers got ahold of her MySpace account and convinced her that ceaseless promos and tour date info actually constitutes a blog. Sorry to burst the bubble, but a non-blog blog just doesn't cut it, especially when the only entry supposedly written by the rock star herself discusses concert ticket availability. But she does hope to see us at the show...
