Tiger ‘Wins’ - Zooey Wins

Tiger takes home our coveted prize, Disgraced Celebrity of 2009

Who knew? At the beginning of 2009, Tiger Woods would have been a total non-contender for Disgraced Celebrity of the Year. But one 2AM quarrel-gone-wrong (or was it?) and the mighty Tiger has crashed into Infamy. Our Blog voters have awarded him Disgraced Celebrity of 2009.

On the lighter side, based on # of Blog hits, ZOOEY DESCHANEL who debuted on our Blog as ‘It Girl,’ is the Blog’s 2009 champion ‘Hit Girl.’
‘Congrat.s’ in quote marks to Tiger Woods.

Zooey Deschanel: Our Hit Girl/It Girl

All-cap. CONGRATS to Zooey Deschanel. Thanks to Zooey & her followers! Watch for more Zooey here in 2010.

Emily Deschanel, like Zooey, is a Rising Star of 2010

And what about that new year? Who is ‘teeing up’ behind Tiger, as falling stars? Blog fave, CAITLIN, suggests we watch for a Disgrace comeback from Paris Hilton, since she’s been ‘laying low and that can’t be good.’

Lea Michele: Rising star on Glee

I’m keeping my eye on Mr. Brad Pitt– the grey goatee, the glazed dazed stare. And what of rising Stars? How about Emily Deschanel? Or Lea Michele of GLEE?

Who are your Rising and/or Falling Star predictions for 2010?

DISGRACED CELEB - The Dark Side And Our Race

Will Zooey Deschanel be our Blog's 'Hit Girl' of 2009?

What a year it has been in the anals of Disgrace. And now the time has come to pick Disgraced Celebrity of 2009. On a lighter note, we’ve also been counting blog-hits and it looks as if our Hit Girl of the Year may well be Zooey Deschanel, star of our ‘It Girl’ post. More on Zooey soon.

First let’s visit the Dark Side and our Race for Disgrace. Not only did 2009 mark the birth of this Disgraced-Celebrity-Enabling blog, but the birth of a whole new mutant breed of Balloon Boy celebrities, who arrise out of thin air, talentless, bourne aloft by nothing more than high-octane cases of Attention Desiring Disorder.

The Heenes, the Salahis, the (now ‘ex’) Gosselins. From thin air they came and soon will vanish. Then at the other end of the celebrity spectrum, we have the SuperStars who SuperStumble. Take Tiger.

Will he join the likes of Disgraced Celebrity of the Summer, Sarah Palin, or Disgraced Dudes of the Fall, Levi Johnston & Jon Gosselin?

Chris Brown took an early lead in the year's Race for Disgrace

(All of these worthies, BTW, still eligible to take the year-end prize). Don’t count out Chris Brown(right), Roman Polanski, Mark Sanford, Kayne West– & Charlie Sheen.

Cast a vote in COMMENTS, before they all fade into thinnest air. As wise woman Judith Podell wrote to us: “Tiger Woods in terms of magnitude of Fall From Grace, but Levi Johnston is so much more entertaining. On the other hand, there’s the Schadenfreud factor with Tiger…it’s been a good year.”

PS: To jog our memories, look at the year’s Celebrity Arrests…as well as Celebrity Shockers.
