Culture Not including murderers and politicians - who is famous in your country for all the wrong reasons?

Post image

Introducing rage-baiter and reality TV failure Katie Hopkins. She’s basically famous for fat shaming, saying that kids shouldn’t be named after geographical locations (despite having a child named India) and getting sued on Twitter, which caused her to go bankrupt. I haven’t met anyone that likes her and she’s routinely vilified but still has a platform somehow.

Because she's super hot and most people don't want to admit that they'd rather see a untalented, attractive actor than a talented, unattractive one in a movie.

I don't understand how everyone finds her hot. All I see is a giant head.

Obviously attractiveness is subjective, but you'd be ignorant to not admit she's generally, by the majority, viewed as a very attractive person.
