But she was booed, hard. Performing in Glasgow, Scotland, with her band, The Pretty Reckless, the singer told the crowd they were “the craziest in the whole of England.” Ouch … Hey, at least Taylor was trying to compliment the audience . The Daily Record says “people began to cheer as they presumed she was going to say Scotland, but when the penny dropped, all you could hear was boos.” “I think she needs geography lessons,” said offended fan Stuart Neilson. “There isn’t any excuse. Surely someone backstage could’ve said something to her.” Apparently not realizing the mistake, the band continued to play undeterred, albeit baffled, without an apology.

Celebrity of the Year Finalist #5: The Kardashian Klan!

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.

Heck, youngsters Kylie and Kendall Jenner even got in on the act . Say what you will about this talentless, attention-starved family – and, Lord knows, THG often does! – but the success and the popularity of the Kardashians cannot be denied. Kardashian Konfiential hit number-four on The New York Times Bestsellers’ list in its first week of release; the sisters have close to 10 million Twitter followers; and, get this, Kris Jenner herself has 504,157 people reading her Tweets at last check. In related news, there are 504,157 people on the planet that really need to get a life. And therein lies the mystery and appeal of the Kardashians. They epitomize the celebrity gossip culture of the 2000s. Paris Hilton started it and then Speidi milked it like crazy for a few months.
