Lindsay Lohan of the Year

With 2011 quickly drawing to a close, it is with great pride that THG unveils its 10 finalists for its prestigious, arbitrary, 5th Annual Celebrity of the Year award.

These celebrities gave us their best, their worst, their nude pics and sex tapes (sometimes) and their scandals (often). This month, THG honors that greatness.

We kick off the top 10 with a perennial train wreck ... Lindsay Lohan!

THG's take on what a Lindsay Lohan motivational poster would look like.

The past year was a wreckalicious one for Lindsay Lohan, who used to be an actress (we think), and who came in at #8 on last year's COTY list for the same reason.

Yes, for almost as long as we can remember, she's been best known for being a mess. But a prolific one. Nobody violates probation and racks up legal bills like LiLo!

Heck, if she weren't in court every freaking month and without gainful employment, we wouldn't be gearing up to see Lindsay Lohan nude in Playboy this month!

For that, men everywhere thank her. Now let's review the year in Lohan ...

With 2010 drawing to a close, it is with much pride that THG unveils its 10 finalists for its prestigious, Fourth Annual Celebrity of the Year award.

These stars all gave us their best, their worst, their nude pics (sometimes) and their scandals (often). This month, THG honors that greatness.

Following the revolting but necessary inclusion of Danielle Staub at #9, we present Celebrity of the Year finalist #8 ... Lindsay Lohan!

Lindsay Lohan's default expression throughout most of 2010.

The past year was a wreckalicious one for Lindsay Lohan, who used to be an actress at one point. These days, she's known mostly for ... being a disaster.

Still, the fact that she defied death and appears to be on the right track at last - she's been in rehab for months with no end in sight - is worthy of props!

If you searched for "Lindsay Lohan jailed" from mid-July on, chances are you'd find a THG story. She was locked up this summer for a probation violation.

She was then spring, entered rehab, left rehab, failed a drug test, had a warrant issued for her arrest, was briefly jailed and then ordered to rehab again.

As 2008 winds down, it's time to reflect upon those - from household names to relative unknowns, from A- to D-list - who made this year so memorable.

The Hollywood Gossip is unveiling 10 finalists for its 2nd Annual Celebrity of the Year award. They've given us their best, their worst, even their nude pictures in some cases. Now it is time for us to give something back with this moving tribute.

We previously profiled those scantily-clad lovers of old men, The Girls Next Door. Today, we present Celebrity of the Year finalist #7 … Pretend lesbians!

Remember the days where a woman simply had to be railed on tape by her boyfriend in order to achieve fame and fortune? That notion is so 2007, as the past calendar year proved that the public is almost immune to simple heterosexual sex, no matter how explicit.

As a result, aspiring celebrities had to go the extra mile in 2008... by grabbing the extra breast!

Indeed, faux lesbianism has been all the rage, highlighted by off-and-on pretend couple Tila Tequila and Courtenay Semel. As soon as one of these unattractive specimens go a month without making headlines, you can be sure to catch them groping one another in public, eyes searching for the nearest photographer.

Look, there's a camera! Grab my ass!

Other celebs that supposedly traded in penis for vagina - at least for the duration of a headline being written about the switch - in 2008 included Aubrey O'Day, Brittny Gastineau and, of course, Lindsay Lohan.

The outbreak of temporary carpet munching has grown so severe that MTV has created a reality series out of it. The Ikki Twins, Rikki and Vikki, wouldn't have jobs at the moment if they didn't consider women among potential suitors on A Double Shot at Love.

Will this trend continue in 2009? Millions of guys certainly hope so!

As 2007 draws to a close, it's time to reflect and pay tribute to the stars who made this a year to remember. On that note, The Hollywood Gossip is announcing its 10 finalists for its first annual Celebrity of the Year award.

They've given us their best, their worst and, in a more than a few cases, their naked pictures. Now it is time for us to give a little something back with this special feature, because without these celebrities, we are nothing.

We previously profiled scantily clad Busty British Blondes at #4. Now, without further delay, we present Celebrity of the Year finalist #3 … Lindsay Lohan!

Lindsay's actions - or lackthereof - over the last couple months almost caused her to drop out of the top three. After her arrest for DUI and cocaine possession, the Firecrotch Queen actually did drop out of the news for a bit.

Fortunately, her first half of 2007 ensured a high spot for Lohan on out countdown.

This mediocre actress is best known for doing both drugs and men. Many, many men. Her rumored conquests over the past 12 months include Riley Giles, Calum Best, Criss Angel, Stavros Niarchos, AJ Lamas, J.R. Rotem and some guy named Spencer Guilbert.

Lohan's naked run-ins with every guy she meets, along with her clothed encounters with police, have led numerous celebrities to chime in with advice. The Sports Gal says she ought to go into porn. Lindsay's former bodyguard says abusive parents have led to this star's demise.

But with Dina Lohan in her corner, we have no doubt Lohan will soon find her way....
