Oh, celebrities: they suck, yet we can't stop thinking about them. But who is truly the world's most worthless celebrity? Here at Heavy, we use science to answer these questions. Using a complex series of algorithms that monitor blog mentions, videos, and other Internet and media traffic, we have distilled the world's celebrities into an orderly list of 100 attention-seeking douchebags. Every day, we'll debut another entry on the list, counting down to the ultimate celebrity trainwreck.
We return once again to the world of professional sports for today's trainwreck, but this one takes detours into areas even less savory, such as professional wrestling. Born and raised in Atlanta, Georgia, he quickly rose to the top of his field and was selected as "Player Of The Year" in his All-Star game senior year. Unfortunately, when he went pro he seems to have left his good judgment behind him. Starting in 2005, this guy just couldn't stop getting into trouble at the club, from throwing tantrums to spitting on women. But the coup de grace came in 2007 when, after showering strippers with money, he demanded they give it back because he was just doing it for "visual effect." Can you guess the trainwreck?
Football fans know it's Adam "Pacman" Jones. From his incredible college career to receiving the longest non drug-related suspension in 44 years from the NFL, Pacman's had a bumpy ride. But he's not just a guy who loves to party – his altercations with fellow patrons are violent, childish, and have ruined his career. From throwing a tantrum for being made to wait for valet parking to spitting in a college student's face, everything came to a head in 2007 when he flipped out at Las Vegas strip club Minxx. While partying there with rapper Nelly, Pacman showered the dancers with a rain of small bills, then freaked out when the strippers started to pick up the money (which is basically what strippers do), claiming he only threw it for "visual effect" and wanted it back. Before you knew it, members of his entourage were popping caps into the crowd and Pacman was suspended for the entire season. During his suspension, he signed with TNA Wrestling, who paid him a huge amount of money without understanding that his NFL contract forbade him to have physical contact of any kind. Most recently, Pacman's blown his last shot at pro football, being turned down by the Winnipeg Blue Bombers. Ouch.
