10 Hollywood Celebrities Who Didn’t Earn Their Fame by lozairio(m): 4:04pm On Dec 23, 2014
What does being famous even mean anymore? Celebrity
Apprentice, Dancing With the Stars and Celebrity Rehab are
all shows that are supposed to involve celebrities, but most of
these so called stars are just famous for being famous. In
today’s society there are a lot of celebrities who have fame but
haven’t really done much to earn it. Being famous for nothing
is usually a symptom of having certain family relationships,
having starred on some reality show or just being rich. Either
way, too many people today are famous for no reason.
Although some of the people on this list have attempted to do
something with their fame, they just aren’t very good at
anything. Without any real talent, these people have managed
to become household names in a fairly short period of time,
which is kind of impressive in itself. Since there are truly so
many talentless stars it was hard to come up with a list of just
ten. Although many people deserve to be on this list, as in 90%
of all reality stars, ten lucky fame seekers have made the cut.
The following ten people all made the list for different reasons
and have successfully managed to completely ingrain
themselves into the minds of millions of innocent individuals.

10. Kevin Federline
Kevin Federline is a former backup dancer who became
famous for marrying Britney Spears in 2004. The father of her
two sons appeared in the film You Got Served, and shortly after
his movie debut he was served with divorce papers from Miss
Britney.
After Britney’s public breakdown in 2008, where she shaved
her head and attacked paparazzi with an umbrella, Kevin got
custody of their two sons.
However, Kevin’s fifteen minutes of fame lasted a bit longer
than planned when in 2010 he participated on season 7 of
Celebrity Fit Club after putting on a significant amount of
weight. He is now married to Victoria Price, who he dated for a
few years prior and is flying under the radar…for now.

9. Bristol Palin
Bristol Palin, daughter of former vice presidential candidate
Sarah Palin, made headlines when she revealed she was a
pregnant. The unmarried teenager made this announcement
during the 2008 U.S. presidential campaign. Her baby daddy
Levi Johnston and her were supposed to be getting married but
never did.
After her mother Sarah lost the election, Bristol decided her
fifteen minutes weren’t quite up and in 2010 she appeared on
Dancing With the Stars. Despite her lack of talent and skill on
the show she managed to finish in third place.
She was still not done. Bristol then released a memoir entitled
Not Afraid of Life: My Journey so Far. If you thought that
was the last of Bristol, you were wrong because in 2012 she
made her acting debut, starring on Lifetime’s Bristol Palin:
Life’s a Tripp, a very hard role for her to play, it being based
on her life and all. She then retuned to Dancing With the Stars
as part of the All-Star cast.
She has been pretty quiet, but who knows she may pop back
into our life shortly, she never seems to want to give up her
fame.

8. Paris Hilton
Who doesn’t know who Paris Hilton is? Great-granddaughter
of Conrad Hilton, Founder of Hilton Hotels, Paris is a woman
with many useless things on her resume.
Paris became a household name in 2003, when a sex tape
starring the hotel heiress was made public. 1 night in Paris, co-
starring her then-boyfriend Rick Solomon, rocketed Paris to
fame and later that year she paired up with childhood friend
Nicole Richie in the reality show The Simple
Life which earned both Paris and Nicole international
recognition.
Paris is an example of someone who does a little bit of
everything and a whole lot of nothing. Known for her
trademark line “That’s hot,” the heiress has released an
autobiography, had a supporting role in a movie, had her own
reality show ( Paris Hilton’s My New BFF), launched a shoe,
handbag and perfume line, had a failed singing career and is
now a DJ.
Paris Hilton is a perfect example of a celebutante; she did not
earn her talent, she inherited it, like many others on our list.

7. Nadya Suleman
Nadya Suleman got the attention of people around the world in
2009 when she gave birth to octuplets (8 kids). Only one other
set of octuplets were born in the United States of America.
After these children came into the world, a lot of controversy
surrounded them and the circumstances of their birth. The
reason for the high order multiple births led to an ongoing
investigation by the Medical Board of California, focused on
the specialists involved in Nadia’s treatment.
The world turned against the mother when they discovered that
she already had six children and was unemployed, living off
public assistance. She conceived all of her children through in
vitro fertilization (IVF), which she confirmed in 2012.

6. Amber Rose
Amber Rose made her debut in the spotlight as Kanye West‘s
girlfriend, before Kanye became Kimye. Amber claims she is a
model and recording artist but her resume is far from
impressive. It includes cameos in music videos and being a
guest judge on Drag Race.
After Kanye and her called it quits she had no problem finding
another rapper to help her rise to fame. Her and famous rapper
Wiz Khalifa married after she gave birth to their son.
Now famous for having a shaved head, Amber Rose and Wiz
Khalifa have ended their marriage. Let’s see who her next
victim is…

5. Farrah Abraham
Farrah Abraham became famous from the hit shows 16 and
Pregnant and Teen Mom. Born in May of 1991, this 23-year-
old star has quite a resume; teenage mother, aspiring author
and musician, porn star and stripper. Impressive.
When Farrah became pregnant at sixteen and her baby daddy
died in a car accident (which gained her sympathy from the
audience), she became one of the stars of Sixteen and
Pregnant. However, as the show went on, she became more and
more promiscuous, leaving her child at home with her mother
very regularly, and it has all been down hill from there.
With numerous body enhancements and regular appearances in
the tabloids, Farrah was enjoying her newfound fame, until the
show came to an end in 2012. To nobody’s surprise, Farrah
released a sex tape in 2013 and has been in the tabloids ever
since. She really needs to get it together!

Some people's fame was earned before they were even born. Op, hustle and become rich and your own kids will be come instantly famous because of your accomplishments. Unless, of course, you intend to subject your kids to poverty and mediocrity.

4. The Kardashian Family
In 2007 the Kardashian family invaded the lives of so many
people and they haven’t stopped since. From high-strung
“momager” Kris to 17-year-olds who drive nicer cars than
most 50-year-olds, the Kardashian family brings new meaning
to the word obnoxious.
Their reality show launched this family to superstardom and
they have been rolling in money ever since. As if they weren’t
already beforehand. The Kardashian family is one of the most
hated and loved families in America, and whether you are
Team Kardashian or anti-Kardashian, you find yourself talking
about them because they are literally everywhere!
The Kardashian family exemplifies the American dream on
steroids.

3. The Real Housewives
The Real Housewives is a media franchise compromised of
numerous reality television series which all air on Bravo. This
show documents different affluent housewives in different
prestigious areas around America.
However, these women are always making headlines. Weather
it’s for attacking another housewife or being convicted of
white-collar crimes, these women are very entertaining and
even more talentless.
With new episodes airing every season, the fame of
these housewives just keeps rising. Some of these ladies have
even gotten their own spinoff shows like Lisa Vanderpump’s
new hit show Vanderpump Rules and Kim Zolciak’s Don’t be
Tardy for the Wedding.
With new housewives being added to the mix frequently, it’s
exciting to see who will be the next of these rich and famous-
for-nothing ladies to become even more rich and famous!

2. The Cast of Rich Kids of Beverly Hills
s
Similar to The Real Housewives, the cast of Rich Kids of
Beverly Hills is famous for being rich. The only difference
between the two sets of cast members is that these cast
members are “kids.”
This show that first aired in 2014 on E! follows a group of
twenty-something-year-old millionaires showing the world
how the more fortunate live.
The show follows these young adults as they travel, party and
basically spend their parents’ money. The show’s newly
famous cast members include Dorothy Wang, Morgan Stewart,
Brendan Fitzpatrick, Roxy Sowlaty, Jonny Drubel and Earvin
“EJ” Johnson.
If self-righteous spoiled brats irritate you, this show is
definitely not up your alley. This talentless group of friends
fame is becoming increasingly famous, and we wouldn’t be
surprised if soon they come up with a Rich Kids of Miami or
even better a Rich Kids of New York! Let’s see what the future
holds.

1. Kim Kardashian
Okay, so I know the Kardashian family is on this list, but Kim
Kardashian needs her own category. She is the most
photographed woman in the world and she became a household
name because of her sex tape. Although Kim is beautiful and
well dressed, she has no reason to really be famous. At the age
of 34, she has been married 3 times, and clearly the third time
was the charm because she seemingly found her perfect match
in the one and only Kayne West. The only difference between
her and her hubby and baby daddy is that he is actually a
talented artist.
Kim Kardashian is the epitome of someone who is famous just
for being famous, and thanks to her mother and hip
hop husband she is one of the biggest stars on the planet!
