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.
How hard is the modeling business on the brain, really? One would think that standing around looking pretty would be kind of low-stress, but the sheer number of trainwrecks and burnouts coming out of the pretty pictures game implies a little differently. Today's trainwreck has been a trailblazer in the game, becoming the first Black model to appear on the cover of Vogue Paris and guested on a Vanilla Ice single. But as her fame declined, her insanity increased, and she became notable for hilarious incidents of physical abuse directed at her hapless assistants, including beating them with telephones and threatening to throw them out of cars. Who's the temper-tantrum trainwreck? Check your answers after the jump.
Yes, Trainwreck #67 is Naomi Campbell. The gorgeous British-born model was one of the fashion powerhouses of the 1990s, even playing Michael Jackson's love interest in his video for "In The Closet" (and I don't know what to read into that). But she just can't stop beating the crap out of the help! 2000 – beats her assistant in a Toronto hotel room with a phone and threatens to throw her from a moving Peugeot. 2005 – slaps a different assistant and beats her about the head with a BlackBerry! 2006 – assaults her housekeeper with a jewel-encrusted cell phone! 2008 – attacks cops at Heathrow Airport! What's next, leading a coup against a small nation? She's currently battling bankruptcy rumors, so that could happen!
