Reuters and Ipsos teamed up to poll America on their most well-loved and their least favorite celebrities, and can you guess who won the number one spot in America’s heart? Here, I’ll give you a couple hints. This girl got a golden opportunity a few years back in a commercial, and she went on to have a pretty impressive resurgence in popularity. I say resurgence because she’s been around for a while. Because she’s old.

Have you got it?

A photo of Emma Watson

I know, it’s sad, right? You’d really think that Emma Watson would be too sassy to put up with some triflin’ man, but it happens to the best of them, I suppose. Everybody loves love these days.

But how exactly is Emma’s new beau bad for her? Well, it seems like back in 2006 he achieved an impressive feat by having two run-ins with the police in the same week – once for speeding, and once for underage possession of alcohol – and also some friends are reporting that she’s being “completely consumed” by him. Uh oh.

From Star via Celebitchy:

“Emma is incredibly smitten with Johnny,” a pal tells Star. “Unfortunately, she’s fallen for a guy who isn’t as clean-cut and straight-laced as he seems. Johnny is a typical Hollywood bad boy and player, and her friends are worried she will get hurt.”

But the 21-year-old actress doesn’t seem to see any faults in her new boyfriend and has become “completely consumed” by him, says the pal. “She’s even thinking about blowing off her studies and not returning to school. She wants to just travel with him instead.” Emma is scheduled to attend England’s University of Oxford this fall. But Johnny, who met the Harry Potter actress on the set of The Perks of Being a Wallflower, may not want to shift his priorities for his British babe.

“People think he’s usng her to raise his profile,” the friend explains, voicing concerns that all Johnny will do is hurt Emma. “All she has ever wanted was to fall desperately head over heels in love, and she feels like she’s finally found that. She won’t listen to her pals and is falling for all the sweet things he’s saying.

Oh, Emma, please. Not returning to school? Just consider this: what would Hermione do?

Do you remember that time that Rolling Stone checked out some album sales and YouTube hits and such and decided that Lady Gaga is the Queen of Pop? Well, they did that one more time, except this time they checked out a bunch of dudes to see who’s the most popular rapper.

Who do you think it could be?

A photo of LeAnn Rimes

You guys know how much we love good ol’ LeAnn Rimes over here. Nothing brings my cattiness out like this girl does, and you know what? I kind of like it.

Anyway, it turns out that LeAnn is going to be giving the world one of the biggest gifts imaginable come September: a brand new album! Do you think she’s going to have some moving songs about her one true love? Do you even think she’d be able to muster up enough power to sing all that great anymore? I don’t know if it even matters, because it looks like LeAnn kind of wants to fail.

From In Touch via Celebitchy:

Nowadays, it’s not exactly controversial for a woman to juggle a husband and a career. A friend tells In Touch that LeAnn is actually struggling with her decision to start working again, four months after her whirlwind marriage to Eddie Cibrian.

“She hasn’t spent any time away from Eddie since they first got together,” the friend explains. Now, oh-so-in-love LeAnn has recorded a new album, due out in September, but she seems to be on the fence about wanting it to be a success!

“She has a lot riding on this,” another pal explains. “She has concerns about whether her old fan base is still there for her. Yet she also knows that if the album is a hit, she’ll have to go on tour, without Eddie.”

And that’s what she finds most troubling: “LeAnn said that the thought of being away for days or even weeks at a time makes her feel lonely,” says the friend.

Oh, LeAnn.  What happened to that “comfort to be trustful,” huh?

A photo of Rihanna

Just look at this girl. It seems like every single day, we’ve got new pictures of Rihanna looking like a damn fool. I don’t know what’s gotten into her, but I think somebody needs to volunteer to have a good long sit-down to explain to her exactly what she’s doing wrong. Here, I’ll start:

Me: Rihanna, girl, you know sometimes I can sort of tolerate your music sometimes, but you need to reconsider all your fashion choices from here on out, because I just saw some pictures of you looking a mess in some furry jumpsuit.

Rihanna: RUDE BOY BOY RUDE BOY BOY TAKE IT TAKE IT RUDE BOY BOY.

Me: This is the opposite of what I wanted.

So yeah, any help with talking some sense into Rihanna would be greatly appreciated.

HOW LAME is it that Chris Brown still has a career? Like, I can totally understand the instinct to needle him on Twitter, because the dude is an entitled twerp.

So Fox News’s Andy Levy started a little Twitter spat with Chris Brown, and—no, duh, because this is the Internet—Chris Brown’s jillion fans went on the offensive. Dear fans: Fox News’s Andy Levy is sorry. (But not really.)

I hope you brought along your sense of irony!
