RDJ Named EW's Entertainer of the Year

The new issue of Entertainment Weekly features their list of the top 25 entertainers of the year, with Robert Downey Jr. being named #1. I can't really argue with their choice. He gave an energizing performance in a summer blockbuster, turning him into an A-list action star after having already spent over two decades in the business, and followed it up with well recieved performance in a comedy. The rest of EW's list, however, is kind of all over the place.

2. Tina Fey - yes definitely!
3. The Cast and Crew of The Dark Knight - of course

4. The Gossip Girls (Blake Lively & Leighton Meester) - kind of high?

5. Stephenie Meyer - enough with Twilight pimping!

6. Lil Wayne - I guess...I don't know?

7. Rock Band - zzzzzzzzzzzzzzz. I don't understand the popularity.

8. Sex and the City Women - sure, though the movie was a let down quality-wise

9. Jonas Brothers - shouldn't talent and not just popularity be taken into account

10. TV's Talking Heads/Political Pundits - yeah to Maddow, Behar, Matthews

11. Meryl Streep - always!

12. Stars of the Bravo Network - sure, especially Tim Gunn

13. James Franco - interesting pick

14. WALL-E - adorable, should have been paired with Po from Kung Fu Panda

15. Coldplay - eh, really? I like them, but still...eh?

16. Elizabeth Banks - this pick makes me happy

17. Yunjin Kim and Daniel Dae Kim - I love the two of them, but I find it odd

18. Kid Rock - yawn

19. Jon Hamm - should be a lot higher, especially after SNL

20. Facebook - I'm on it, but I still find it annoying

21. Katy Perry - fine, whatever

22. Richard Jenkins - I love the fact he's finally getting attention

23. Boring Ogre Face - go away already!

24. Leona Lewis - over Estelle, Adele, and Duffy....I think not!

25. Neil Patrick Harris - this pick also makes me happy, now give him an Emmy
