d have given you a blank stare with the mention of the name Chris Crocker. But all of these names emerged in 2007 to be ones everybody recognizes. Since 2007 was a year that made so many accidental celebs appeared on AOL Search, I thought it would be interesting to make a list of all of these names. It is always fun to recap and reminisce as the year ends.
OK, Kardashian is not as obscure as some of the people who made our list, but 2007 was definitely her break out year. The bootylicious socialite made headlines for everything from dating Reggie Bush to posing for 'Playboy.' Eventually all of this publicity landed her a reality TV gig with 'Keeping Up With the Kardashians.' '07 propelled Kim from obscure rich girl into a family name.
We also see both of the Malakars make the top ten list this year. It is really interesting to me that with all the Sanjaya fever, his sister still got more searches than he did. Maybe it was the rumor of her naughty online pics? Both were cut from 'Idol' but they still stole a piece of our hearts.
Lots of viral video stars made our list. Remember Crazy Chris Crocker asking us to "Leave Britney Alone"? There was also Obama Girl and her tribute to Barack. I honestly did not understand the whole Chocolate Rain craze, but he also makes our top ten.
Be sure to check out all of our top searches on the Year End Hot Searches site.

Kardashian is known for her homemade porno, which, though she cried about it during her interview on Tyra, was out promoting it all year!! And that's the ONLY reason anyone knows of her.

Have heard of only two of these people and decided they must be paying for their own airtime. I wouldn't. Is there a real audience out there for them?

What a monumental waste of time, chasing after celebrity as a way of life. I couldn't care less about who these people are; if they ever achieve something truly noble then maybe I'll want to know.

Kim Kardashian had all the trappings of success and a beautiful future.
a famous well respected Father. a famous world reknown Step Father. Heir to millions. Heir to a business called DASH that her lovely Mother started. Plus a beautiful exterior appearance and I'm sure, a great heart. Truly readers, Kim Kardasian had it all. But she had to go out and blow it by taping an explicit sex tape with a way-below-her-level rapper
whom no one has heard of and then that tape get out to the worldwide market. Vivid Entertainment Knew a diamond in the ruff when they say it. The tape is every guys fantasy, yet it makes Kim look very very cheap. and I am here to write, she is not. but she really really blew it. she is a lady, who got caught up in the world of lust and sexual excitment.
This is the only reason E picked up the show, the only reason she is in Playboy and the only reason she is famous and the ONLY reason she will ever be remembered. The tape sold to millions and they see her with a homie who is so very very "street." So it makes it impossible to understand how such a beautiful girl could let a thug like that have her body. oh kim, while you could care less about my opinion, I feel so sorry for you. You will always be remembered as the beautiful girl looking Egyptian girl, who ruined her life, by taping a sex scene with Not a movie star, but a low down homie that know one knows who displays an attitude as gettin' it from ya and it makes you look like a very foolish young lady. Honestly Kim my friend, I would love to know you and be your friend and ask you, What were you thinking?
were you thinking?

I have only heard of Larry Birkhead and Miss South Carolina...and I don't think I'd like to be known for what either of them did to get their "celebrity"...lololol

Cindy Margolis owns the all time title in this category. This bombshell's 15 minutes of fame has lasted 12 years!

Hopefully most of these people will disappear again in '08! I don't know about anyone else but it seems to me the only person on there for real talent is Kat Von D.

Who ever searches Sanjaya or Tila Tequila has no life. These people, like Obama Girl are NOT celebrities. They are people who are searched on google.
Does anyone have a poster of the guy who made Chocolate Rain? I didn't think so.

manya re too dumb to knwo hwo to stay incognito, because they dont know the cost of fame!! Many times it can cost you your freedom to come and go as you please, and sometimes even your livelihood. many lsoe their sense of direction and ower to live! And many commit suicide becasue the stress is so overwhelming.
