| Celebrities are often a mainstay of American culture. So which ones have been "naughty" and which ones have been "nice" this year? CNN conducted a poll and came up with some interesting answers.
This past weekend CNN asked Americans who they would put on their Christmas lists -- who was naughty and who was nice? Topping the CNN/USA Today Gallup poll was Britney Spears. 67-percent of those polled say she was naughty. That quick Vegas marriage and divorce didn't help her image, but there's more.
"A lot of mothers of small kids dislike the example she's setting for their daughters. The wife of the Governor of Maryland -- in jest -- said she wanted to shoot Britney Spears," CNN said.
Remember last year's Super Bowl halftime show? Thanks to the infamous wadrobe malfunction, Janet Jackson comes in second. 64-percent of those questioned say she was naughty.
A close third is Paris Hilton. Her starring role in an amateur sex video landed her just one percentage point behind Jackson in CNN's Santa Claus poll of public opinion.
In fourth place is Martha Stewart. 57-percent of those polled say the jailed homemaker was naughty.
Also worth noting is Barry Bonds and filmmaker Michael Moore were in the high 40s. And so was Donald Trump.
"Trump's an interesting character. The country was split. Around half thought he was naughty and half thought he was nice," CNN said.
So who topped the list of good guys? 90-percent of those questioned say Tom Hanks and Pprah Winfrey were nice. Tiger Woods and Mel Gibson were right behind them, polling in the upper 80s. | |
