Celebrity of the Year Finalist #8: Lindsay 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. Through it all, she feuded with her family, was dumped by various partners and producers, stayed out late a lot and pushed her frail body to the limit. She posed nude for more random magazines than we can even recall, stayed up very late, was a terrible influence to her sister and made excuses a lot. We’re so glad she’s still with us and hope that one day soon, she can get back to entertaining more than just celebrity gossip websites (thanks, though). Dancing With the Stars is reportedly a’callin’ and we hope she can answer the bell. It could be her ticket back to success like it has been for others. In honor of this THG fave, all she’s provided us and all the hopes we’re pinning on her for next year, here’s a look at some Lindsay photos from 2010 …

Portia de Rossi Turns Down Dancing With the Stars; Same-Sex Partner Idea Shelved For Now

Dancing With The Stars producers aren’t quite ready fora same-sex couple on the ballroom floor after Portia de Rossi didn’t pan out, according to reports. “If Portia agreed, this would have been a done deal,” an ABC insider says . Ellen DeGeneres’ actress wife “was the only star that really could have pulled this off without completely offending the program’s conservative viewers.” Ellen still dances a lot on her show, at least . Portia was rumored to be going Dancing next year, but turned down overtures from the network for unknown reasons. As a result, the show “isn’t in a rush to have a same-sex dancing couple just to get attention and publicity.” The show has a soft spot for stunt casting – Kate Gosselin and Bristol Palin are just the newest, best examples – but DWTS isn’t out to push the envelope. “With all the debate going on about Don’t Ask, Don’t Tell now, this would have been the perfect time to do this,” one Hollywood casting director said. “Yet, Dancing With the Stars has never been about pushing the envelope. It’s a huge hit precisely because it doesn’t make anyone uncomfortable.” Some sources feel the backlash over Palin’s surprising finals run on the show caught producers by surprise and they’re looking to avoid conflict. “After Bristol, I predict it will be the most boring stars next season,” an insider says. “When you have a hit this big, everyone is scared to mess it up.” What do you think of same-sex DWTS partners?

Kim Kardashian and Gabriel Aubry: It’s (Already) Over!

You can rest easy now, Halle Berry. Kim Kardashian is no longer trying to steal your life . Sources tell Life & Style that Kardashian has already called it quits with short-term boyfriend Gabriel Aubry, with whom she was spotted on a couple dates last month. “Kim feels like Gabriel was just using her for her fame,” an insider told the magazine, adding that the 34-year old model “is older than Kim is looking for.” Of course, Kim isn’t just sitting at home on Saturday nights. Another source says there’s a “real spark” between her and New Jersey Nets forward Kris Humphries . They first dined together in early November and also went out in NYC this past weekend. “Kim likes him much more than Gabriel,” says a friend. “He’s normal, so much fun and cute. He’s perfect for what Kim wants right now, which is some fun dates and some fun times.” And courtside seats so the camera can find her, naturally.

Celebrity of the Year Finalist #10: Michael Jackson

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. We present Celebrity of the Year finalist #10 … Michael Jackson ! It seems hard to believe the King of Pop, who passed away in 2009, might be bigger in death than he was in life, but MJ defies conventional wisdom. Beyond the investigation into his death, there are side plots – the well being of his children , the insanity of his family – as well as a musical legacy. Not only has his passing renewed interest in vintage Michael Jackson hits, his estate has capitalized on the fervor with a forthcoming album, Michael . With the release of that previously-unreleased material, of course, has come even more controversy. Is it real? Is it fake? Is MJ rolling in his grave ? The only thing we know for sure about Michael Jackson is that truth is often stranger than fiction, and that you can always expect the unexpected. That’s why MJ’s #10 on our list, even if he’s not around for it. Few have made a bigger impact.
