Daily News lists Top 50 Dumbest People in Hollywood

[demonicus69]

And the most contrived list of the week award goes to ...

Entertainment Weekly magazine, which waded through the intellectual wasteland of Los Angeles to create a list of the 50 smartest people in Hollywood, released the list Thursday.

"Knocked Up" creator Judd Apatow leads the brainiac pack, with Ben Affleck holding up the back end at No. 50.

The mag asserts that smart could mean any number of things: "It encompasses book smarts and street smarts, financial genius and emotional intelligence."

Picking through the cerebral corridors of America's most vapid city seems a daunting task.

An easier route: The "Top 50 Dumbest People in Hollywood."

Dumb doesn't necessarily correspond to a low IQ. There are poor life choices, style slipups and mishaps under the influence to take into account.

Topping a highly unscientific Daily News list of the "Dumbest" is Lindsay Lohan. The reason: poor movie choices ("I Know Who Killed Me"), delinquent behavior and bad taste in men.

The rest of the top five:

2. Kim Kardashian - because it is sad when you leak your sex tape and nobody cares.

3. Spencer Pratt - who thinks his life on MTV's "The Hills" is reality - and believes we think so, too.

4. Jeff Kwatinetz - the man that gave the okay for Britney Spears' disastrous MTV Video Music Awards performance.

5. Shia LaBeouf - the 21 year-old "Transformers" star, for getting arrested while refusing to leave a Walgreens pharmacy.
