THG Celebrity of the Year: Who Is It?!?

Posted on January 1, 2018 by Benny Hollywood| Leave a comment

It's that time of the year again. Namely, the end. With 2017 just about over, editors at The Hollywood Gossip are finally prepared to reveal our 10th annual Celebrity of the Year. But not without a lot of build-up and drama first. Let's do this down below! 1. A Tradition Unlike Any Other Forget The Masters. THG running down our top stars of a certain calendar year has been a long-anticipated and much-balleyhooed tradition since we started doing it in 2007. 2. And Who Was the Winner Way Back Then? It was an easy call, considering Britney Spears started the year by shaving her head and ended it by being at the center of one pregnancy rumors after another. 3. Who Else Has Taken Home the Honor? To name a few: Kim Kardashian, the entire cast of New Moon, Justin Bieber and Kristen Stewart. 4. Who Won It Last Year? Taylor Swift. Hard to believe, right? Considering how quiet she’s been in 2017? But the singer had to take a long break after all that went down a year ago. 5. Who are the Contenders This Year? Many think 2017 was the worst year in the history of mankind, largely because of the person sitting in the White House. So we need to start there… 6. But This Ain’t Happening Granted, Donald Trump likely had a bigger impact on 2017 than anyone else out there, but we refuse to give him any sort of distinction. We won’t reward the President with our top honor. View Slideshow
