Speaking of Celebrities in Disgrace, visit our Film Website…
BREAKING: Paris Hilton arrested in Las Vegas for possible cocaine possession; Glenn Beck & Tea Partiers stir controversy; Levi Johnston ‘takes back’ his Public Apology to the Palins while Bristol P. takes a gig Dancing With The Stars…
WHO WILL BE DISGRACED CELEBRITY OF SUMMER, 2010? 
As summer hits its homestretch heat, we race to decide who will ‘win’ Disgraced Celebrity of Summer, 2010. Till the end of August, you can leave your votes as COMMENTS on any Post. There’s no shortage of suspects.
Mel Gibson and Lindsay Lohan spent the early part of summer vying for first place in our Race for Disgrace. But now Mel has acted like a ‘perfect gentleman’ after crashing his Maserati and Lindsay is raking in a million for her first post-jail interview.
Repeat offender Levi Johnston (who tied with Jon Gosselin for Disgraced Celeb. of Fall, 2009) may score an unprecedented Double-Dip Disgrace after his brief re-engagement to Sarah Palin’s dsaughter Bristol went down in flames amidst new Baby Daddy scandal rumors. This week, tireless fame-chaser Levi has filed papers to run for Sarah Palin’s old job as Mayor of Wasilla, AK.
Meanwhile, Mama Grizzly Sarah Palin angered many by Tweeting a defense for Dr. Laura’s racially charged radio rants. America’s sometimes-Sweetheart Jennifer Aniston found herself in hot water over her own offensive words.
BP Oil CEO Tony Hayward took our ‘highest honor’ last time as Disgraced Celebrity of Spring, 2010. Now, Jennifer A’s ex Brad Pitt is calling for an even harsher punishment for BP exec.s: the Death Penalty! But don’t let Brad Pitt be the only overheated underqualified Judge here.
We can ALL weigh in on who ‘owns’ DISGRACE for the Summer of 2010…
PS: Thanks to CAITLIN for alerting us to SPENCER PRATT, who gets her vote!

Dr. Laura.
Thank you, W, for kicking off our voting.
Just to get us rolling, we had another vote for DR. LAURA cast by ‘Judith’ via Facebook.
Let the games begin, with two opening votes for Dr. Laura–
E.
Spencer Pratt from “The Hills” is so vile, I have to vote for him. He just won’t go away, and now a sex tape “scandal” has materialized to extend his pathetic 15 minutes of infamy. As if ANYONE wants to see him naked. My eyes! My eyes!
Hi Caitlin and THANKS for being on the cutting edge here and adding this name to the mix–
hmm; will have to check this out online–
Spencer, that’s one passionate vote for you in the Race for Disgrace–
E.
PS: Just got a link up on Spencer and his sex tape scandal– yikes!
mel gibson may have been a gentleman with his car but not with his wife. he still gets my vote.
Hi Livvy–
I hear what you are saying– if even half the allegations against him are true, he is no gentleman at all.
Mel Gibson gets my vote too. Dr. Laura offended with words but Mel Gibson is accused of doing worse. And there is taped evidence of his violent temper. This is no way for the father of a baby to act.
HI Kathy K–
Good point about words versus actions. Actions speak loudest, and Mel G’s alleged actions truly are disgraceful…
A PHOTO FINISH
BETWEEN DR LAURA
AND MEL GIBSON
Works for me!
Nicole “Snooki” or any other member of Jersey Shore is certainly disgraceful–I’m not sure if she is a celebrity.
HI Barb–
Oh good, I was hoping we’d get a vote for Snooki–
the only thing I DO know about her is that, yes, sadly, by today’s standards she is in fact a ‘celebrity’…
Thanks for putting Jersey Shore in play!
Elizabeth
Okay, I could lean off Lindsay and vote for Pratt, but he’s not a celebrity in my eyes, just a wanna be. Now, I would vote Mel but all we’ve seen in the news is a bunch of hearsay and fake photos from his ex-girlfriend.
I’m still on the Lindsay wagon for disgraced celebrity of the millennium, anyone who walks into court with FU painted on her finger nails, gives the WORST crying speech EVER to a judge and then walking out of jail and rehab way before her time. She’s still under the impression that she’s more special than anyone else. I give her another two weeks before another drunken fall into a cactus bush. I’ll give her a month before she files a Chapter 11.
Hi Wendy: Wow, stirring words here! Yes, let’s not forget Lindsay’s FU to the judge– hope she can get it together and not meet your excellent prediction of 2 weeks before a drunken fall. Not sure about that Chapter 11, though: supposedly Lindsay is getting a cool million for her first post-jail interview…
Cheers– Elizabeth
PS: and I also liked what you said via Facebook about LL:
“Lindsay Lohan because she will continue on through the rest of 2010″
So true that Lindsay’s ‘got legs’…E.
PS from FACEBOOK:
Happy to have SHEILA weigh in via Facebook with this pithy vote:
“Mel because he is too angry to fail”
Well put, Sheila– and you may just inch Mel over the ‘top’ here…
Elizabeth
Ooo, hm, I think I might have to lean towards Levi now, worst quote ever, he’s disappointed that running for mayor is going to cut into his hunting time for “SHEEP????” Does this mean he’s going to shoot anyone that watches his reality show?
I just posted up on your facebook page. Paris Hilton could now be added to this list. She now takes the cake over Lindsay any day. Let’s see, Cocaine possesions, DUI, can’t do her jail time because she’s claustraphobic, crying like a baby because she had to do jail time (Daddy’s money couldn’t buy her out) busted for Marijuana possession in South Africa, but it wasn’t “HER” pot. Stalker at her door carrying knives, BF confronts him with gun, two days later busted in LV, he gets a DUI for cocaine in his system, she gets possession. Her explanation, YUP, it wasn’t her purse.
I think I need to change my vote to Paris Hilton. Talk about taking the lead in the final stretch.
I remember her interview with Larry King after she was released from prison. She said, with a straight face, that she had NEVER done drugs. He asked her the question a second time, because even *he* didn’t believe her. And she repeated that answer. At the time, I laughed out loud because I know someone who did drugs with her. (Sorry, I can’t give up the name of that celeb — I’m anti-drug, but I like this person a lot — just wish this person didn’t do drugs!)
If someone can find the clip of Paris on Larry King saying she’s never done drugs, that would be AWESOME!
Hi Caitlin–
You can be the first Paris vote here and yes, I’m sure someone right now is digging up the Larry King clip. Poor Paris can’t seem to keep it together, either in or out of jail.
BTW, Caitlin, you as blog psychic PREDICTED THIS– you said in your psychic post that Paris was ‘too quiet’ and that can’t be good; right again…
Hi Wendy–
Yes, glad there’s another Levi voter out there– Levi is really reaching new heights or depths–
and yes, of course, Paris has veered into contention, truly a Poor Little Rich Girl; she’d better hope for a super lawyer this time– So true on your comment; you capture it all!
Thanks Wendy and keep watching; lots of celeb. meltdowns happening– E
I wonder if there is some automated way to vote for Levi Johnson every quarter?
Hope all on this site are planning to tweet Jimmy Fallon tomorrow night.
Greetings Penny2–
LOL; yes, that is how I feel about Levi too! He is ‘in a class by himself’ here. As a fellow flabberghasted blogger noted when Levi ‘took back’ his public apology to the Palins: ‘Can you even DO that?’
There are many things Levi has done that in earlier eras you couldn’t do, such as gain fame and fortune by not using a condom…
Now my own Public Apology: I’ve been off at the beach and I do not know what is up on Jimmy Fallon; is Levi going on there? Perhaps you can enlighten me…
But I love your 4ever support of Levi, who already was a ‘winner’ here on the blog when he and Jon Gosselin memorably tied for Disgraced Celebrity of Fall, 2010– (see the Post ‘Dueling Dudes of Disgrace’ featuring a priceless shot of Levi & Jon G. hangin’ out together…)
PS: Oops– now I see you mean the EMMY awards– yep, I was at the beach and not ‘on’ that one, but I welcome comments from those who did watch.
Who was best dressed? Any scraps of scandal?
Geez, what’s this, Spencer Pratt in the limelight, YET AGAIN? coughsurprisingcough. Seems as though the jig is up. Spiedi caught vacationing in Costa Rica. Who takes a plane to Costa Rica to return two dogs, and he says she didn’t want them, if that’s the case how come you were both caught together there? Next we have the spiedi sex tape. Vivid head honcho has now called Spencer out demanding a 30 second sampling before committing. I knew it, Spence opened his mouth too soon and they had to rent camera equipment to make the tape pronto in Costa Rica and make it look like it was done months ago.
Elizabeth. How long do I have to make up my mind and am I allowed to vote more than one person? LMFAO.
I would not want your readers to think I regularly watch Jersey Shore, but after hearing so many jokes about the show, and being a person who vacationed there every summer for 16 years, we watched it one time, and it wasn’t funny–it was raunchy, degrading and disgraceful. My husband had vacationed there for 30 years, was equally appalled and adds his vote for Nicole Polizzi “Snooki” as the most disgraceful summer celebrity. The real shocker is that this disgusting show will be on 24 times this week! The state of New Jersey wants it gone.
Hi Barb–
OK, we will rack up TWO big votes for SNOOKI– and no, we’d never suspect so sharp a mind as yours to be hooked on Jersey Shore. I know what you mean: Atlantic City used to be a classy family-friendly resort. What did Jersey ever do to deserve Jersey Girls? I’m shocked myself to hear that show will be on 24 times in one week– surely overkill and backlash are not far around the corner. Hang in there and THANKS to your husband for jumping into the fray and voting too–
ELizabeth
I’d have to say Mel, although my heart still breaks because I remember how beautiful a man he used to be. I’d like to say Levi Johnston, just because I’d like SOMEthing to happen to wipe him off the cultural radar.
However, I like him better than those Palins who I really hope take a family trip to Bermuda and get lost in the Triangle.
Greetings Tart and Soul–
Sorry for the delay in getting your comment up; for some mysterious reason, it got put in my Spam folder. But I found it and I have to say I agree with this:
“my heart still breaks because I remember how beautiful a man he used to be.”
So true! I loved the man in MAD MAX. It is truly sad to see the road he is taking now.
And yep, I too wish we could loose the Palins in the Triangle (well, except for Bristol and that cute baby of hers!)
Thanks for coming by and will hope to keep you out of Spam next time; I like your Tart and Soul name! Cheers– Elizabeth
