Not the Brightest Moments for These Celebs

Posted by T. Joelson

For decades, people have been fascinated with celebrities, whether they’re actors, msuiciaans, athletes, or even politicians. For better or for worse, we always seem to know what these folks are talking about. That’s a lot of pressure for people living in the public eye. With that kind of visibility, you’d think they’d pick their words more carefully, but nope! Some celebs have absolutely no filter, and as a result end up making some pretty stupid statements! Unfortunately, all the dumb things they say heard by thousands around the world. Just goes to show that it doesn’t take brains to be famous.

Take a look at the absolute dumbest things celebrities have said!

twitter

Britney Spears

We’d like to congratulate Britney Spears on getting out of her conservatorship. While under her dad’s thumb she was subject to a lot of unnecessary medications that she stated made her a bit loopy. This quote is what we can only assume is a direct result of her court-mandated substance abuse. 

thegaurdian

Now that Britney has been freed, we are hoping someone has broken the news to her that Japan has more than just fish. We also hope she gets around to taking a geography class. Imagine the shock she must feel upon finding out Japan is not in Africa. Presumably, she must be in as much shock as we were upon reading this unfortunate string of words.

Elizabeth Hurley

The world of celebrities is a world we’re completely content with not being a part of. You might be asking yourself why that is. Quotes like this one really just grind our gears. Marilyn Monroe was an iconic and beautiful star of her time, and is still widely known today, imagine disrespecting that.

azquotes

If your name is Elizabeth Hurley you don’t have to imagine it because you can just do it! First, Hurley starts off by saying how fabulous Marilyn looked and then turns around and fat shames her. It may be difficult for celebrities to let other people shine, and that’s why they say such heinous things about one another. 

Kate Moss

Kate Moss was known for being a cocaine connoisseur at the height of her career, so we’ll attribute this quote to the drug addiction and the impossible body standards in Hollywood. Can you imagine being so brainwashed by the Hollywood machine that you think something like this could ever be true? We hope she moved on from this mindset. 

bbc

Has Kate Moss ever been introduced to a food truck festival, a late-night diner or even just a really good ice cream on a hot day? By the looks of it, no she has not. This kind of mentality fuels eating disorders and a super unhealthy body image, we definitely don’t recommend it. 

Geri Halliwell

Do you guys know the difference between ethnicity and religion? If so you’re two steps ahead of Geri Halliwell. This sentence is confusing on so many levels, people are still trying to decipher what exactly she meant by this. In case Geri was unaware, you cannot change your ethnicity, so her mom is indeed still Spanish, whether she is aware of that or not.

quotefancy

Becoming a part of a religion does not change your ethnicity, because again, that can’t be changed. It has been said Jehovah’s Witnesses are placed under a lot of restrictions, and by the looks of it, obtaining a proper education is one of those many restrictions. 

Jaden Smith

We weren’t sure how much of an education child actors got, then we saw this Jayden Smith quote and were no longer curious. In Jayden’s defense he probably just wants to bring everyone else down to his level. This whole thing is not entirely his fault, between filming Karate Kid and guest singing on a Justin Bieber song who has time for an education?

businessinsider

Evidently not Jayden! While we would all like a more intelligent society, we wouldn’t want one where everyone has the intellectual abilities of child actors. On one hand, it sounds quite horrific, on the other, being that empty headed sounds like a world of peace. 

Brooke Shields

There have been a lot of campaigns and slogans committed to ending cigarette smoking. This may be one of the worst ones we’ve ever seen. Yes, Brooke, smoking does kill, so far so good! Here’s where it gets a little messy when you’re killed not only do you lose an important part of your life..but you lose the whole thing. 

whatculture

The jury is still out on whether or not Brooke Shields knows exactly what killing means. Honestly, nobody should tell Brooke Shields the truth, just let her continue to live her life in a blissful sort of ignorance. Anyway, if you guys were looking for a good anti-smoking campaign we suggest you look elsewhere. 

Justin Bieber

Justin Bieber is known for many things, closing car doors on his wife, weird hair, and evidently being a moron. When faced with the question of political parties, one would only assume that that question is geared towards the country you live in, you know, the one whose decisions directly affect you. 

youtube

This line by Bieber came directly out of left field, it’s truly the definition of never let them know your next move. On a related note, how come he knows so much about Korea, but not enough about the place where he actually lives. There is a slight chance Bieber fever did cause some permanent brain damage, and we’re seeing the effects of that right now. 

Dalai Lama

Have you guys ever done something a little bad and then justified it by saying something along the lines of “it’s okay, I’m no Dalai Lama”? We have great news if you have, because it would appear that the Dalai Lama himself is also no Dalai Lama. What’s the point of being a man of peace if you’re going to say something so unhinged?

msn

We doubt there is even one person on this planet who has gone to the Dalai Lama for his striking good looks. Not to be hypercritical but this seems just a tad bit judgy for someone who is supposed to have reached the highest level of enlightenment. 

David Beckham

You know what really grinds our gears? When people say how celebrities are just like the rest of us. The rest of us would never say something as moronic as this, it’s honestly insulting to us normal folk. Even Beckham took about 20 too many soccer ball hits to the head, no concussion, no matter how bad, would ever produce a statement as ridiculous as this one. 

mirror.co.uk

Did it never occur to him as he was saying the word CHRISTened that it pertained to a certain religion? Did even one religion pop up in his head when that word rolled right off his tongue? This was definitely an off day for the sports star. 

Lena Dunham 

We haven’t seen a great deal of positive press surrounding Lena Dunham, and after seeing this quote we understand why. For some reason Dunham has decided to build her brand off of uncomfortable and off-putting statements, actions, and interactions. Abortions aren’t really something to wish for. She makes abortions sound like a fun little treat. Imagine she just replaced the word abortion with “smoothie”.

thecut

Makes sense since she’s treating them like you can get a punch card and after the 9th one you get the 10th free. It’s possible Lena just wanted to feel included in something, but by all accounts, she couldn’t have come up with a less dumb way to do it? 

Cameron Diaz

Celebrities have this weird thing for wanting to sound super edgy and profound. More often than not they just say something really dumb and make a fool out of themselves. Enter Cameron Diaz who has been noticing that when she drops things they fall, and that she cannot fly from a very young age. 

cosmopolitan

In an attempt to impress the general public, she made a complete mockery of herself. The question of whether or not she has been noticing her breathing remains unknown. We can only hope that Diaz and every other celebrity takes this as a lesson before providing a soundbite that will live on in infamy. 

Bill O’Reilly

Bill O’Reilly is a political commentator known for his conservative viewpoints, so it makes sense that he’d posture an argument in favor of religion. However, when one attempts to come up with a convincing argument for whatever they’re discussing, they need to use actual evidence. Bill ended up talking himself into a corner with this one.

themarysue.com

We don’t really understand what Bill was trying to prove, if anything he just confused us more. He sounds like a mediocre oceanographer at the very best. While we’re not convinced that religion isn’t a scam based on this information, we are more inclined to go look at some tide pools. 

Arnold Schwarzenegger

Anyone here know the definition of “gay”? If so, maybe you could ring up Arnold Schwarzenegger to give him a crash course so he can sound a little more informed. We all know by this point most celebrities don’t actually say what they think, they say what people want to hear so they can win the public’s favor. 

rollingstone

Schwarzenegger didn’t know what it meant to be gay, so he obviously just strung this mess together instead. The only good thing about this quote is that it invalidated his opinion on the matter seeing as he knew nothing about it. If ignorance is bliss, he’s in heaven!

Steve Harvey

Evolution is hard for some people who don’t know how to think, like Steve Harvey for example. Steve isn’t necessarily known for being the brightest bulb out there, but this one is just a whole new level of idiocracy. Most middle school children know more than Steve when it comes to evolution. We just can’t believe he dares to judge people on game shows for their answers when he’s spewing this level of ignorance.

abc

Here’s a fun little idea, let’s put Steve in their shoes just to watch him come up with more quotes like these. At the end of the day Steve’s job is to entertain, and we certainly found this entertaining. 

Paris Hilton

Paris Hilton built her entire brand off of being a dumb heiress, so this quote isn’t that surprising. London is in fact in England, unbeknown to Ms. Hilton. But as they say, you can either be beauty or brains. Paris is the daughter of some very wealthy people, so you would think they would do their best to educate her, but this is just more funny.

hollywoodreporter

The best part of this is that she actually corrected whoever said she went to England, like if she had just let it go and said nothing she would have been absolutely fine. We just hope she knows Paris is in France. 

Kim Kardashian

If the Kardashians have anything in this big blue world, it’s the audacity. Kim Kardashian got herself and the rest of her family a ride to the Hollywood gravy train, and we all know just how she did it. They air every single piece of dirty family drama, their social lives, and even their children’s lives for the world to see. 

glamour

We’re curious Kim so please let us know, in what way does that deserve respect? The way Kim got to where she is today isn’t exactly the most tasteful. In our book that doesn’t quite earn you anything. Someone needs to bring Kim K back down to reality. 

Gwyneth Paltrow

There is a lot in this world we find confusing, and Gwyneth Paltrow tops the list. In case you haven’t heard, Gwyneth considers herself this all-knowing health and lifestyle guru. She determines health by how outlandish and expensive something is, because obviously the more you spend the healthier you are, right?

abcnews

That may be how she drew this absolutely horrendous conclusion. Crack is indeed very expensive, while cheese is relatively cheap. It can be assumed that because crack is more expensive, Gwyneth deemed it better for her. Don’t you just love the way celebrities’ minds work? We can’t say we’d rather take life-altering drugs over dairy, but you do you Gwyneth!

Christina Aguilera

Christina Aguilera has a beautiful voice, she’s truly a talented individual. It’s so great she has this talent, because quotes like these are things we’d rather forget. She quite literally states the location of the festival, and then proceeded to ask where it was being held. Talk about a brain fart moment! We’ve all had them before, but thankfully none of us are famous.

brainyquote

Hopefully, someone directed Aguilera to the film festival. We’d be afraid to send her there on her own, she might end up getting lost! Hey, just because you’ve got an epic set of pipes doesn’t mean you’re going to be an expert when it comes to geography.

Sean Connery

Preschool is usually the time when we get the talk about using our words, and that violence is never the answer. It would appear Connery missed that day of school. It is pretty funny that he starts off his quote with “I don’t think”, and honestly he could have just left it at that. 

scotsman

Critical thinking, or even just thinking in general isn’t something some people are capable of, and most of these people just so happen to be celebrities. We know Connery was from a different time, but no matter what decade you’re from you should know that solving problems is better done with words rather than slaps. 

John Lennon

Christianity is the most popular religion in the world. You know what’s not a religion? A band like The Beatles. It’s obviously safe to say The Beatles were one of the most popular bands of all time, but to think you’re more popular than Jesus is a little self-obsessed. Imagine being that famous and having your ego inflated so much you genuinely think people care more about you than their religious figures. 

britannica

This was one weird way to lose some fans. John Lennon must have known something we don’t, or he just wanted some super weird and obscure plan to lose a bunch of fans. We’re guessing Christian fans of The Beatles are bigger fans of McCartney. 

Dan Rather 

We’ve said it once, and we’ll probably have to say it again, being famous doesn’t mean you’re smart. A sequence of events means following a specific order, this information is obviously not known to Dan Rather. Do these celebrities’ publicists not try and educate them? At a certain point it’s almost as though the teams for these celebrities are praying for their downfall. 

brainyquote

There’s no better way to do it than by making sure they look like complete fools when speaking in public. If we were Dan Rather we would start watching our backs, or at least hire people who would make sure we looked a little more educated when speaking in public. 

Tara Reid

Tara Reid is most known for her role in the American Pie series.  In this statement, she was trying to highlight how she makes everyone else look smarter by comparison. She definitely accomplished getting that point across! It’s hard to tell whether she was being funny or serious, either way, it sure was entertaining. 

azquotes

It’s pretty safe to say that the word Tara was looking for here is “rocket scientist”, alas she landed on the less intimidating “rock scientist”. It’s especially funny because this is a commonly used phrase, chances are this isn’t the first time she’s messed this up. But it IS the first time it’s been documented, and we will be forever thankful for the chuckles. 

Megyn Kelly

Megyn Kelly is one of those people who is aggressively stupid, but believes their intellect is equivalent to that of a Harvard graduate. It’s possible Megyn is dumber than previously thought, so we should first let her know that Santa isn’t actually real, he’s a figure meant for children to enjoy, not middle-aged adults. 

thegaurdian

Second, it has been said that Jesus was born in the Middle East, a place where people are not exactly white. Of course, Megyn Kelly would never listen to any history expert, probably because she thinks she can never be wrong. We’d try to argue with her but honestly, we’d have better luck conversing with a concrete wall. 

Linda Evangelista

On today’s episode of celebrities not knowing the meaning of things, we have Linda Evangelista. Linda says she doesn’t diet and then proceeds to say she doesn’t eat as much as she would like to, almost like… a diet. This could have been Lindas’ way of trying to make it seem like she doesn’t buy into the toxicity of diet culture, which is a smart move, but she killed it by not knowing how to use her words. 

nbcnews

We are curious,  if she doesn’t think eating less is dieting, then what does she think dieting is? There’s always the possibility that this is in a whole different ball park when compared to other celebrity diets. 

Jessica Simpson 

Breaking news, but people from Texas can in fact be anorexic. How wild is it to believe that your experience in one place isn’t the experience of everyone else? It’s one thing to be self-absorbed, but to think you speak for an entire state on something many people go through is a whole new level of ignorance. 

theindependent

Those who struggle with anorexia typically don’t broadcast it, so it was a bit off of Jessica to then ask if there are people from Texas who struggle with it. This is yet another example of celebrities not knowing how to think outside of themselves. Hopefully someone explained just how prevalent eating disorders are. 

Kayne West 

Kanye West has proved himself to be quite the eccentric and out-there performer. We have seen many public meltdowns, poorly worded tweets, and extreme Instagram posts come from him in the last few months. This quote doesn’t seem all that surprising when put into that context. Though we wonder how he managed to become a rap icon without doing any thinking?

brainyquote

Every recent scenario with Kanye West only proves this quote to be more and more true. Shoutout to Kanye for staying true to his brand, though we think he might do better if he used his little gray cells every now and then.

Farrah Abraham 

This entire quote was a journey we certainly weren’t prepared for. Starting off strong, Farrah doesn’t know what feminism is, awesome. Next, she says she’s pretty feminine, that’s not what feminism means buts it’s great to know she’s in touch with her femininity. Finally, she then equates feminism with being a lesbian, which was completely out of left field. 

eonline

If she didn’t know what feminism was that’s fine, she could have just asked instead of jumping to two very confusing conclusions. Quotes like these are the funniest because it just makes us want to ask these celebrities to explain basic things and see what outlandish response they come up with. 

Carl Everett 

If this guy had paid a lick of attention in any of his schooling he would know there is indeed evidence of dinosaurs existing. Now we assume he would then ask why nobody ever saw them. We would then reply that they’re extinct, but their fossils remain and that is how we know they existed at one point in time.

sportscasting

Now what can be said about concrete evidence on the existence of Adam and Eve? There’s a lot less to go off of. We’re not knocking his religion, but maybe he wants to articulate a bit before throwing out an irrational argument. 

50 Cent 

Grandparents are some of the most precious people in this world, so not only is this next quote dumb, but it’s also downright disrespectful. We’re not sure what kind of guidebook people get when they become famous, but no way refusing to take out the trash is in it. Nobody, no matter how much money they make, is exempt from common household chores. 

twitter

This was a very lame way for 50 Cent to publicize the fact that he sucks at respecting his elders. The day people start to put their status over their elderly loved ones is the point in time where we need to evaluate ourselves as a species. 

Shaquille O’Neal

Shaquille O’neal is known for many things, being a successful basketball player with many lifetime achievements, acting in memorable movies like Kazaam and many more. But being able to memorize lines and shoot hoops doesn’t mean you remember everything you saw and did. He had made an awkward mistake when being asked about a recent trip. 

wikipedia

A reporter asked if he visited the Parthenon During his trip to Greece he assumed it was a club and not the former temple on the Athenian Acropolis. We’re sure at some point in history this place was bustling with people and could’ve been considered a “club” of sorts. It would seem that Shaq had to brush up on his cultural studies.

Sienna Miller

There are a lot of people who dedicated their lives to making campaigns against cigarette smoking. Over the years, many celebrities chimed in and gave their two cents on the matter, but this one may be the worst point of view we’ve ever seen. No Sienna, that’s not how cigarettes work, they don’t get less harmful the more you like them.

globalhappenings

That’s not how anything works. Imagine using that quote but on a different topic “the more positive approach you have to war the less harmful it is” sounds crazy. Honestly it makes us wonder how much she really knows about smoking. Maybe it was just wishful thinking? 

Craig T. Nelson

Some celebrities think it’s cool to be edgy and show no sympathy for those in need. Some might say something like “well I had a hard time and no one helped me, so why should we help anyone else?”. In their reality, the harder your life gets the stronger you will be, just so long as you work hard enough. Unfortunately, that’s not how life works.

trakt.tv

And someone has to tell that to Craig T. Nelson. Instead of impressing the general public, he made a mockery of himself and probably even lost a few supporters. It’s unclear whether he realized his mistake or not but let’s hope that others will see this as an example of how to not treat others.

Madonna

When celebrities get famous and gain a large enough fanbase, some tend to lose their sense of modesty. They start feeling like the world revolves around them and the sun shines out of their butts. In many of these cases, it’s important to snap them back to reality and show them how wrong they are. 

biography.com

Madonna definitely has a reason to lack modesty, she’s been a major icon in the music industry for years. But asking fans to “scrape” together $300 to come and see her show is a bit much, especially when you consider the traveling and accommodation expenses some people would need.

Mitt Romney

This quote reminds us of the 1999 home videotape of a boy fumbling over a sentence about dreaming. Much like Romney the kid tried to say a simple phrase “Have you ever had a dream where you could do anything?” Instead he went on fumbling for a full minute. Sometimes it’s hard to get a thought out when you’re passionate about something.

vox.com

Much like in the movie Inception, Romney entered the deep levels of patriotism where Americans believe in America where Americans believe in America. Someone has to tell him that life is not an action movie directed by Christopher Nolan. Maybe it would’ve been helpful to have some notes when giving this soundbite.

David Hasselhoff

Most people might know David from one of two places, either Baywatch where he saved countless lives or that one time he helped Spongebob and Patrick get back to Bikini Bottom. Either way, he’s had a very long acting career. Though some people say that staying under the sun for too long can hurt your brain.

vox.com

Maybe someone with more indoor time can tell David the definition of “inbred”? We all know that most celebrities don’t really think before they speak, they’re so used to reading lines that they probably forget to articulate before saying something. Let’s hope for his sake that he didn’t really mean to say inbred and it was all a big goof.

Axl Rose

In his younger days, Axl was at the top of Rock & Roll music with his band Guns & Roses. They swept the world off their feet with incredible guitar solos and great vocals. Their years of fame were characterized by doing a lot of drugs, trashing hotels, and having chaotic performances which sometimes ended in a mass fight.

setlist.fm

Before his downfall with Erin Everly and the band, Axl had a monogamous relationship, he dedicated several of his songs to his now ex-wife and even let her star in some of their music videos. Somewhere along the road, he developed a more refined rock-star palette where he would prefer to have more than one woman in his life, which explains the quote.

Jason Kidd

It’s a known fact that just because you’re important doesn’t make you smart. A lot of people confuse the two and tend to look up to famous people and bask in their wisdom. Although Jason is a successful basketball coach, he clearly didn’t pay attention in math class when they were talking about angles and degrees.

cbssports.com

Although he won numerous awards for his contributions to the basketball world, we think it’d be beneficial for him and his team if he took a little break from coaching and had a little review of elementary school material. After all, an educated coach means an educated team. Is that important in basketball?

Jessica Simpson

Jessica Simpson made a name for herself in the music industry with hits like “I Wanna Love You Forever”, as well as on reality TV with her former husband Nick Lachey. In fact, it was on that show that this quote came to be! Apparently, the singer was confused by the branding of this particular tuna manufacturer. 

wikipedia

We guess we can understand the confusion in the name, but how could anyone mistake the taste of tuna for chicken? It’s a food known for having a pretty strong flavor and smell. Though since then Simpson has realized that having a camera on you 24/7 isn’t a great idea, it captures too many foot-in-mouth moments! 

Lukas Podolski

Maybe when you’re a soccer player you run the risk of taking one too many hits to the head. We don’t know if it’s the number of concussions, bad education, or just lack of knowledge but no one should ever produce a statement as ridiculous as this one. Clearly, this man has never seen a chess game in his life.

spiegel.de

First of all, let’s address the obvious mistake, everybody knows there are no dice involved. Second, how can someone compare a game that’s about strategy, sacrifice, and brain power to such a physical sport? Maybe there’s something about football we don’t know…

Megan Fox

This starlet is best known for her role in Transformers which, let’s face it, wasn’t that big or memorable. But it would seem that on top of being a hot Hollywood star she’s also a fart connoisseur of the highest order. Is this another talent she can list on her resume? How did her Transformers co-stars feel about this?

hollywood.com

Though we have to give her credit, not everybody is comfortable talking about their vast knowledge of farts. It takes a brave heart and even braver person to publicly admit that their clothes smelled like farts the entire time they were on set. You don’t need to humble yourself Fox, we all know why your wardrobe on Transformers smelled so bad.

Britney Spears

We all know Britney Spears didn’t have the easiest career. She was constantly hounded by paparazzi to the point that she had a severe mental breakdown. But on a positive note we did get to have the famous “Leave Britney alone” video which was amusing for a while. It was soundbites like these that gave people something to talk about. 

goodreads.com

We get that her early career was a mess and her dad subjected her to a lot of unnecessary medication which made her loopy. But when you hear someone say something as ridiculous as that you can’t help but laugh. We still love Britney even if she had a few dumb quotes like these.

Justin Bieber

This singer is known for many things. Having a mop-like hairstyle, acting like a jerk in public, and having the most love/hate career ever. One of the most infamous things he did in his early career was comparing himself to Kurt Cobain. It was at the time when everybody was hating on him for his looks and music, so you can only imagine how much backlash this got.

vanityfair

Comparing yourself to one of the greatest musicians of all time when you’re at the start of your career is never a good idea. It only shows how much ego was pumped into him by the people around him. He probably believed this when he said it, too! 

Kanye West

If there’s a winner when it comes to crazy soundbites it’s Kanye West. When he’s not busy working on his music it seems like he tries his best to say the most ludicrous and out-of-touch things you’ve ever heard. This entire article could’ve been about quotes by this man, that’s how many there are. It’s no wonder he was a part of the Kardashian clan for such a long time.

goodreads.com

If you consider his giant fanbase and how people go crazy over his music, it’s not surprising he would say something like this. He probably thought that it was very philosophical. But if he would’ve took a moment to think about it he would’ve realized how dumb he sounds.

Kim Kardashian

Everybody is afraid of something, and we all have that one “biggest fear” that we hope to never deal with. Whether it’s heights, creepy crawlies, public humiliation, the list can go on and on. There’s no shame in being afraid of something bad happening to you, but there is a little shame when your biggest fear is stretch marks.

tvgag.com

Getting old is a big concern for many whether it’s about getting wrinkles, white hair, bad eyesight or other diseases. For a celebrity this physical deterioration is especially devastating to their career. But stretch marks? Lots of people have those! That’s a pretty lame fear if you ask us. 

Tara Reid

You’d think that someone who was in seven Sharknado movies would know a little bit about sharks and other aquatic life. We can’t really hate her for assuming that whale sharks are a direct result of a shark and a whale doing the deed. But we can poke a little fun at her for assuming such a bizarre thing can occur in nature.

webpronews.com

It’s like thinking that spider monkeys are an unholy lovechild of a spider and a monkey. Some animals have a name that suggests they were made in a lab, but that’s obviously not the case. Who do we have to blame for these confusing names?

Don King

When a boxer says something dumb we don’t really bat an eye, “it’s probably the head trauma” we tell ourselves. But when someone who (presumably) has an undamaged head says something this stupid, we all lose our minds. He might be ninety years old but the legendary boxing promoter Don King is still going strong and doesn’t plan on quitting any time soon.

quotefancy.com

Some people manage to keep their minds sharp through their old age, but it’s not easy for everyone. So although he made it on our list, we can’t really hate on the old fella for making an honest slip of the tongue. Who among us didn’t have an occasional brain fart here and there?

Tyrese Gibson

Technology can be difficult sometimes, we just can’t keep up with everything that’s coming out. The older we get the easier it is to be left in the dust while everybody continues to the next best app or device. But when a 40-year-old thinks an app is actually a person, you can’t help but giggle a little bit.

twitter

To be fair, who uses Pandora these days? More people associate this name with the jewelry company than anything else. If you want to listen to music you go to Spotify or ‎Apple Music, can’t really blame the guy for not knowing a third-rate music app.

Kendall Jenner 

Kendall Jenner is famous for making her signature look a huge part of her brand. When faced with the question of what defines someone, it’s common to pick a hobby, your profession, perhaps your children. But this member of the Kardashian/Jenner clan picked a totally different aspect. We wonder if she knows that she’s not reinventing the wheel with this one.

usmagazine

What’s less common is filing down your whole “thing” to your “tits”, as she puts it. We get it, a lot of her brand is her body, but to make it her whole personality seems a bit too much. We are curious if she actually has any hobbies or if she just stares at herself naked in the mirror all day. 

Mike Tyson 

While it is possible to fade into oblivion, it is not possible to fade into a new ethnicity or nationality. How someone could mess this up that badly is beyond our realm of understanding, but definitely provides some great comedic relief. Mike Tyson is a boxer so perhaps he took one too many hooks to the head and it knocked this knowledge clear out of his brain. 

reddit

Do you remember that one time someone told George Bush that 4 Brazilians were killed, and he responded by asking how many a Brazilian was? This Mike Tyson quote holds that same energy, except this isn’t as bad in comparison. 

Lena Dunham

Have you guys started planning your funerals yet? Neither have we, and we’d like to keep it that way for the time being. Lena Dunham has been caught at the center of lots of controversies for saying bizarre and offensive things. Dunham herself isn’t even a part of the LGBTQ+ community, while it’s great that she’s an ally, the parade isn’t the right place for her funeral. 

Reddit by u/AristonD

The parade is to celebrate people in the LQBTQ+ community, and even they wouldn’t have their caskets displayed like this. Much to her dismay, we don’t think anyone is going to arrange this for her. She’s going to need a backup plan because this one ain’t happening. 

Bebe Rexha

If you say you haven’t wanted to time travel, we don’t believe you. It would be the experience of a lifetime to go back and see how people lived in our favorite era. Of course, there are some major issues with this. It’s unfortunate but human history is riddled with terrible historical events.

A lot of people are fascinated with Paris, the culture, the food, and even the unique personality of the French. Paris in the 1940s wasn’t exactly the place to be. France collapsed during WWII and was under German occupation. Bebe should take a trip to modern-day Paris and go learn about its history instead.

Kesha

Kesha is a gift to this world. Not only is she a kind human who produces great music, but she also produces great tweets. She’s been in the industry since she was young, so naturally, she missed out on some important science lessons. She now takes all her burning questions the public, and for that, we’re very grateful.

We hate to be the bearers of bad news, but there’s no such thing as clear hair. It would be pretty cool if there was, but that’s not how the body works. We wish it was real, that way we wouldn’t have to spend so much time on hair removal products. We’ll wait here patiently to answer more of Kesha’s questions. 

Kourtney Kardashian 

Kourtney Kardashian was once branded as being the least interesting in her family. We disagree with that statement wholeheartedly, have you taken a look at some of the wild things she’s said? Most people don’t spend their waking hours pondering insect genitalia. Then again, most people aren’t like Kourtney Kardashian.

Now that she’s put the question out there we have to admit we’re also a bit curious, but more curious as to why she’s asking. Even if this question is a little weird, we commend her for taking an interest in something new. We bet other people are just as curious! Can you answer this Kardashian’s burning question? 

Justin Bieber 

If you’ve ever been too afraid of asking a question for fear of it being dumb, just channel the energy of Justin Bieber. He doesn’t care what people think of him as long as he gets his answers, and we salute him for that! We too have had this question and we’re sure you have as well.

If they didn’t want to confuse people so much they shouldn’t have named this state after an island. We should however inform him that a “road” and “Rhode” are not the same thing. The state was named after a Dutch explorer who called it “red island” after the red clay lining its shore.  

Britney Spears

Before social media, our weird thoughts lived only inside our heads, now we have the chance to let everyone in on the inner workings of our brains. This is especially cool because we get a whole different view of our favorite celebrities. Britney is a pop idol with some very interesting thoughts.

It seems like she had a lot going on when she said this, her haid was full of global issues as well as one of the world’s favorite singers. We’re not sure what global warming has to do with Lady Gaga, maybe Britney knows something we normal folk don’t. But to answer her question, no, global warming is not a good thing. 

Kim Kardashian

If you insist that you know how everything in the world is made, we won’t believe you. Nobody takes the time to look into the process of how each of their favorite foods is made. Personally, we’ve known that pickles are made out of cucumbers, but it’s okay that Kim learned this later in life, after all, everyone goes at their own pace! 

Twitter

It’s a good thing she has her fans to let her in on all these fun facts. Now that she knows how pickles are made do you think she’ll try and make a business out of them? If so, what do you think she’ll call them? We’re betting our money on KIMckle.

Paris Hilton

If you’re a celebrity, there are many “normal” people things you can’t do, like shopping. Part of this is because the paparazzi follow celebrities everywhere, making it difficult to get anything done. The other reason is that they’re so rich they can pay people to run their errands, what a life!

It makes sense that Paris wouldn’t know exactly what Walmart sells, but this seems a bit far-fetched. Paris Hilton is actually a very educated individual, but her public persona is built off this idea of being “dumb”. We’re still waiting for Walmart to send her an invitation for her to come to check them out. 

Post Malone

When you really love someone’s personality or work, you’ll excuse any of their little bad habits. Post Malone is hilarious, has a great voice, and a unique style. It looks like he’s put so much focus into his songwriting that some other basic knowledge has escaped him.

Maybe singers who are going on tour don’t get the chance to eat fresh produce. The lack of vitamins may have made him delirious. Of course, that’s just our theory. On second thought, he was probably dabbling in some recreational substances when he typed this out. Either way, we can definitively say that a meatball isn’t a fruit. 

Kevin Durant

Do you like to go clubbing? It’s not everyone’s cup of tea, some people prefer a more relaxed night in. If you are someone who enjoys clubbing, you go at it full force meaning you put on your best outfit, and dance the night away. Kevin Durant seems to take a different approach to the party scene.

Why he’s watching TV in the club is unclear, and why he picked the History channel is even weirder. Durant is a skilled basketball player, and it appears he doesn’t have much time to look into the details of seismology. Maybe he can take it up as a hobby when he retires.
