People I Would Like to Personally Thank For Being Chemically Imbalanced.

by rachaelgking on June 16, 2010 · 79 comments

Liza Minnelli, living legend, aspiration for drag queens everywhere, and putting Beyonce to shame with her “Single Ladies” rendition in SATC2.

One of my most favoritest crazy birds in the world. From Arrested Development to making Michael Jackson the best man at her fourth wedding to her brilliant Snickers commercial with Betty White, this diva just won’t quit, and I freaking love it.  

But last night on Kathy Griffin’s premiere, the montage of Liza’s laugh… well… I guess you just had to be there. Nonetheless, this chick has been crazypants through the ages, and I just plain adore her for it.

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~  

Britney Spears, just plain being Britney Spears.  

She hasn’t even done anything that batshit lately, but let’s be honest, she’ll forever have an honorary place on this list for our generation. Like 9/11 and Katrina, so too will this horrifying image forever be etched into our minds:  

Oh, Brit Brit. Please stop procreating. Xoxo, LiLu

Although apparently she has just been accused of “physical harassing” of one of her bodyguards… by nakedness.   

Never a dull moment with you, chica.  

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~  

Kelly Bensimon, Real Housewives of New York.  

This one can’t really be explained in words. Mostly because she doesn’t know how to use them. At least, not in coherent sentences.  

Listen, lady friend… when Bethenny Frankel pities you, you’ve pretty much hit rock bottom. But never fear… I’m sure Dr. Drew’s already got a room prepped for you on Celebrity Rehab. 

Wow. Just… WOW

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~  

Megan Fox, Passion Play, kicked off of Transformers, and new possessor of a tribute to Mickey Rourke” tattoo.  

I almost didn’t include her, because I’ve always felt she’s so desperately trying to be old-school Angelina (you know, Billy Bob Thornton boning, vial-of-his-blood carrying, make out with your brother Angelina). But then I saw faux-Mickey’s tweet re: the tattoo, and frankly, it’s worth it just to share that:  

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~  

Miley “I’m Not Trying To Be A Slut” Cyrus, Hannah Montana, musical artist, and posing all sexy-like with her dad.  

It's Miley!

“I’m really comfortable with my body,” she says. “I feel more comfortable dressing with a little less, which is just how I’ve always been. Now I’m able to do that a little more freely and, also, I’ve just grown up to be this way too.”  

via Zap 2 it  

At least it's a onesie?

That’s fine, little lady. I honestly have no problem with a gal wanting to whore it up every once in a while; every girl has her “promiscuous year” in college. (Except me, Mom. What’s a penis?)  

All I’m asking is that you OWN it. Go all Xtina: The Dirty Years on us! Stop worrying about what everyone thinks and just admit you’re slutting it up for a while, even if it is only musically.

Can’t cheat on daddy, after all.  

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~  

Danielle Staub, Real Housewives of New Jersey.  

Every week, I think this crazy ass bitch can’t get any crazier. And every week, bless her heart, she proves me so very, very wrong. To the point where I took a “Which Real Housewife of New Jersey are you?” quiz, and B told me, quite seriously, that if I got Danielle… we were through. 

Honestly, I wouldn’t even blame him. (No worries, I’m Dina, apparently. Though I kind of see myself as more of a Caroline. *shrugs*) 

Just watch as much as you can stomach… you’ll get the idea.

Danielle, I hereby crown you Crazy Ass Bitch of the month. We salute you!

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~  

Honorary mentions: Speidi and the Gosselins, who have blessedly somehow disappeared from the news lately. Maybe there’s hope for your souls yet!  

…NAHHHHHHHHHH.

Thank you for the Miley Cyrus picture.

I’ve been hunting for new wallpaper on this laptop.

You saved me a trip to her website.

You mean the one and her dad?

Yeah, I thought so.

2 Hayley June 16, 2010 at 10:10 am

Thank god I got Dina. If I got Danielle, I was gonna have to take the quiz over again. I stopped watching RHNY. They’re too fucking crazy for me.

What! They’re my favorites. Unlike RHONJ, they’re ALLLLLLLLLLL cah-razy.

3 Melanie's Randomness June 16, 2010 at 10:11 am

LOL!! This is an awesome post!! Danielle from the Realhousewives of New Jersey is more crazier in person. I’ve met her. Oh Britney became such a nut! I love it!

MET her??? I’d be jealous, but I’m too shocked that you came out of it alive. ;-)

4 Kat Storm June 16, 2010 at 10:12 am

Oh, Brit Brit… I love you, and when I’m famous, the first thing I’m going to do is take you to the store and buy you a pair of panties.

…That probably comes across way creepier than I meant it to.

Nope. It was just right.

Also, bring me.

5 Nikki June 16, 2010 at 10:16 am

LMAO I’m sitting in class cackling right now!

I’d pick Kelly over Danielle ANY day of the week. At least Kelly *AL SHARPTON!!* is harmless, Danielle on the other hand… there is NO telling what that crazy bitch is going to do next.

Did you hear the REAL reason why Dina left the show? Danielle is a sick piece of garbage. Team Manzo FO EVAAA

oh and I got Dina as well, THANK GOD!

Dina LEFT?! *googling*

6 shine June 16, 2010 at 10:18 am

Oh Megan Fox. But she’s marrying what’s-his-name from 90210!

Also, please kick Miley Cyrus out of reality. I. Can’t. Take it.

As long as she keeps making songs.

I’m sorry!!! I need them to work out too!!! *shame*

7 Liz @ Dogs & Wine June 16, 2010 at 10:20 am

I love that fake Mickey Rourke twitter. I swear to god, much like DRUNKHULK, it makes my day just a bit better.

Also RHONY is just chock full of the cray-cray, and I love it.

That Mickey twitter is like, one of TEN I have come straight to my phone. SO GOOD.

8 k8 June 16, 2010 at 10:30 am

What? You don’t think Glen Beck is crazypants?

I follow everything Britney and I’m not ashamed of it.

I kind of feel like we owe it to her. Like we created a monster, and now we need to take care of it, or something.

9 magnolia June 16, 2010 at 10:31 am

oh, i love it when people are crazier than me. makes me feel better about myself and my insane life. :)

This is pretty much the formula I use when choosing every show I watch. It works out quite well (for my self-esteem).

10 Rachel June 16, 2010 at 10:41 am

Kelly and Danielle both need to come back down to earth. And I just read a comment that Dina left the show, WHAAAAAATTTT???? I haven’t watched this week’s episode yet, dammit to hell she was my favorite one. (Well, tied with Caroline.) The NY reunion has made me DIE laughing all over the place. Kelly, please put down the meth pipe… (spoon?? or whatever..) Thank you.

Caroline won’t let Dina leave. FAMILY STICKS TOGETHER!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

11 Grace June 16, 2010 at 10:44 am

holy crap! Danielle is a shit show! And Miley Cyrus creeps me out. She’s not even 18. I can’t believe that her parents let her dress the way she does. and the photo shoots. ick. ick. ick.

I’m pretty sure Billy Ray is the new Joe Simpson. Soon he’ll be talking about his daughter’s rack and making sure she’s not wearing panties when she leaves the house.

12 Yankee Girl June 16, 2010 at 10:51 am

Thank you for adding Megan Fox to this list. I thought I was the only one who thought she was nuts and a total wannabe. It’s good to hear I am not alone.

I’m no Angelina fan, either, so someone TRYING to be Angelina? Extra pathetic in my book.

13 Corinne June 16, 2010 at 10:54 am

oh dear lord. Yes, yes yes yes yessss X a million. I have to admit (i can’t believe I’m doing this) I’ve kinda been missing Spiedi from The Hills. The show is not near as enjoyable without their crazy-asses. Although, rumor has it they broke up…we’ll see.
But I love this list. And I agree with all of them. although, I have to admit that ms. hannah montana/miley cyrus does give me some extremely catchy songs to work-out/drive in the car to. (can’t believe I just admitted that, either).

I know! The Hills is nothing without their dramz, but that crystal shit was too much even for me.

And I LOVE Miley’s songs. Nothing gets me through the end of a run like “Party in the USA.” What?

14 J June 16, 2010 at 10:58 am

Danielle is INSANE. I have a pretty good stomach for insane ladies on reality TV but she just scares me. Bottom line.

As long as she stays on THAT side of the TV, I’m watching.

But in real life? I’d run like hell.

15 Kristina P. June 16, 2010 at 11:02 am

OK, here is my theory on Kelly. She had a horse accident years ago, and I honestly wonder if she has a Traumatic Brain Injury. She absolutely acts like someone who has. I mean, there is crazy, and then there is honestly and legitimately CRAZY.

Danielle is crazy, Kelly is Crazy.

I would agree with this assessment, Dr. P. BUT I also think that Danielle is more likely to cause bodily harm… so it’s a toss up, really.

16 Justin (Oats) June 16, 2010 at 11:05 am

Not so sure if chemically imbalanced is the right classification… I think they’re just wired all wrong. Chemicals cannot fix these lovely ladies (except Britney since she’s bipolar), no really nothing can fix these human models of atrocity :)

And I wouldn’t have it any other way.

17 Annah June 16, 2010 at 11:08 am

Honestly? I think the only redeemable part of SATC2 was Liza Minelli’s bit of Single Ladies. She f*cking rocked the house! Work it sistah! As far as Miley Cirus… no words honey. I think she is the next Britney for sure. Do I see one common denominator? Crazy parents who let their children’s leash become a little too loose if you know what I mean… *muah* Kisses

That was the only three minutes of SATC2 I watched without wanting to gauge my eyes out. She was disturbingly fabulous.

18 molly June 16, 2010 at 11:10 am

This list is so awesome. Now I must go see Kathy Griffin’s premiere. Heart her! (yeah, ok, obv i don’t heart her enough since i didn’t know about the premiere. doh.)

You know Bravo, it’ll be on 43 times today ;-)

19 Stacey Paradise June 16, 2010 at 11:12 am

Kelly Bensimon and Danielle Staub are the reasons why I nearly pee my pants with laughter every week. Those bitches be CA-RAZY.

P.S. I just took the quiz and got Caroline. Shew. Relief!

Seriously. What WOULD we do without them??

20 Andygirl June 16, 2010 at 11:13 am

You are completely awesome!

Aww! Thanks darlin!

21 Amy --- Just A Titch June 16, 2010 at 11:15 am

My biggest dream is for Celebrity Death Match to be resurrected so that Danielle Staub and Kelly Bensimon and fight one another. And we can all drink Mexican versions of margaritas! VIVA LA COUNTESS!

Also, in my house, we like to do a lot of Lucille 2 impressions, mainly, “Buster! How grand!” a la the auction. Liza is amazing.

You know how Austin Powers does that thing with “Turbulence! Turbulence!”

Yeah… I do that, except I shout “Vertigo! Vertigo!”

22 Lindsay June 16, 2010 at 11:21 am

There is so much crazy on the Real Housewives shows! It’s like a train wreck I can’t stop watching. Love it!

It’s a bumpy ride, but so worth it.

Just so long as I don’t spill my wine.

23 Wendy June 16, 2010 at 11:24 am

I think I love you more now than I ever have. Why? Because you are also a reality whore like me. So, love chicken, I agree with all of this. I mean, Kelly, Danielle, Brit, Miley, and Liza are the poster children for all kinds of crazy. But DAHLING, you forgot LuAnn (Money Can’t Buy You Class???) and Kim from RHWOA….she’s just a hot mess of crazy bitchness. :)

I know. We should have a post-off between their songs! Only problem is, I actually *like* “Tardy for the Party”… don’t tell anyone.

24 Wendy June 16, 2010 at 2:59 pm

@Wendy,

I’ve been known to sing the chorus to my class when we are doing something important first thing in the morning.

Your secret is safe with me. :)

25 Emily Jane June 16, 2010 at 11:24 am

“(Except me, Mom. What’s a penis?)” I LOVE YOU.

I totally wish I could see that last video! Some kinda lame “sucks to be you because you don’t live in the US so you can’t watch me” message popped up :( But LOVED this.

Silly Hulu. I tried to find it on youtube for you Canucks, but to no avail. Just trust me when I say it’s magical. SCARY magical.

26 Krysten June 16, 2010 at 11:38 am

YES! But done forget about Lindsay Lohan! That girl is RIDICULOUS!

I know, but she’s kind of past the point of entertaining… girl’s just sad. I was watching Mean Girls the other day and she’s barely recognizable. Fix yo shit, Lilo!

27 Delilah June 16, 2010 at 11:43 am

Kelly from NY Housewives omg! She cracks me up. Aahh wish I could get the Brit image out of my head.

Never. It is a part of all of us forever now.

28 Nikki June 16, 2010 at 12:22 pm

Miley in a onsie is classic. I think I see a snapable crotch on that little number. Or is that for easy access? She’s even holding up 3 fingers for her age. SO precious!

29 Hope June 16, 2010 at 12:36 pm

I can’t tell if Megan Fox is really dumb, trying too hard or both.

30 Maxxy June 16, 2010 at 12:37 pm

Hey,

Linked you from Sleepyjanes place. Love the post. I’ll come past and maybe catch up with some older posts later. Oh, and if Miley wants to whore it up at my place, she’s more than welcome. ( As long as she comes over when the wife’s out !!! LOL ;) )

31 Gnetch June 16, 2010 at 12:39 pm

I used to have nightmares of the bald Britney Spears. I have gotten over it just recently. But now that I saw it again, I think I will have to skip sleep tonight.

;)

32 Frugal Vicki June 16, 2010 at 12:53 pm

Okay, slutty would be one thing…but this outfit is just an embarrasment. Seriously. What was her goal here?Was she attempting to start a new trend? Because if so I want to be “untrendy” forever. heaven forbid we start following in the footsteps of Miley Cyrus

33 Eric June 16, 2010 at 1:05 pm

Some crazy women might be crazy hot, but eventually the crazy will catch up to you and kick you in the nuts, crazily.

34 Mike June 16, 2010 at 1:33 pm

I don’t need whacked out celebrities. I’m man enough to admit my chemical imbalance comes from me.

And Chuck Norris.

And David Caradine.

No, not David.

Ok, David.

35 Ellen June 16, 2010 at 1:47 pm

Kelly and Danielle should be besties. I seriously feel sorry for their children! And yeah, Megan Fox sucks. (No, I’m not jealous). When she was at an event promoting Jennifer’s Body, she said “It’s better than it look!” Idiot.

36 poodlegoose June 16, 2010 at 1:51 pm

Thank you for this list. I love that you added Kelly & Danielle on here, because as much as I’d like to talk about them with my husband, he just doesn’t want to hear about how crazy they are. Don’t you EVER call me crazy.

37 Alice June 16, 2010 at 1:57 pm

i refuse to like miley’s songs, but i have no such compunction about britney. i do hope she stops being so.. um.. well, totally nutso, but HOT DAMN does she put out some catchy tunes.

38 colby June 16, 2010 at 1:58 pm

You totally had me when you got to Bravo. Kelly is just – well – I don’t have the words. She’s so enveloped in her own reality that I fear an alternate universe may manifest just for her . And maybe for Danielle, too. Or they could be in the same.

39 randi June 16, 2010 at 2:46 pm

that whole megan fox thing is just super weird.. like way creepy weird…

miley cyrus.. makes me wanna throw up……!

40 Shana June 16, 2010 at 2:59 pm

I haven’t been watching the housewives of NJ this season but I have got to catch up. Everyone keeps telling me how nuts Danielle is and I have to see that mess for myself.

41 Vodka and Ground Beef June 16, 2010 at 2:59 pm

Where the fuck has your blog been all my life? I LOVE it. I’m blog rolling your ass. HI-LARIOUS stuff.

I totally agree about those crazy housewife beyotches?? Kelly Benn Simone Killborne whatever the f her name is has lost her mind. She is too great to watch. What is her deal? Seriously, what is her deal?

Great stuff.

42 Kellie June 16, 2010 at 3:34 pm

Miley’s onesie looks very different from the onesies I’ve got for my little girl although they contain about the same amount of fabric. Just sayin.

xoxo

43 The Only Girl June 16, 2010 at 3:35 pm

Crap – I get the “clip isn’t available from your location” message for these videos! Which sucks. ‘Cause I love me some Crazy!

44 Little Fish June 16, 2010 at 3:59 pm

Dear Lilu,

Who said the “Dirty Years of Christina” were over?!

Her latest song off the new album:
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=BiEAy1LoOTk

I mean, c’mon. You don’t even need a plate when you swing with Christina!

Later Gator,
Little Fish

45 Michelle June 16, 2010 at 4:11 pm

Oh LiLu, thanks for brightening my day!

46 Dict June 16, 2010 at 4:17 pm

I was just getting over Britney’s temporary bald spot (yes, it took that long…) and you had to post that picture here. Thanks…

and now to show you that I was joking: LOL.

47 Wonderful June 16, 2010 at 4:22 pm

Actually, I just read Ryan Seacrest’s tweet that Kate Gosselin might be on the next Bachelorette. Can you say BAD IDEA?????????

48 allison June 16, 2010 at 4:54 pm

yes! first, kelly binsomon is the worst. i start to feel anxiety watching her…in a “bethenny is going to totally shut her down” anxiety kind of way. and you are so right, if you have bethenny’s sympathy…you are nuts! also took the quiz…and i am caroline. so i guess this means we are sisters? welcome to the fam!

49 thatShortChick June 16, 2010 at 5:14 pm

I used to think that Danielle from RHONJ was sad/crazy, in that she’d been given some hard knocks from her divorce and prior life as ‘Beverly Merrill’ (p.s. there’s a twitter account for Beverly Merrill, @BeverlyMerrill, and its all kinds of hilarious) but now, I see that she is a crazy, manipulative, predator and that makes some scary ish.

but Kelly, oh my dear. she’s a good kind of crazy to watch because she’s foolishly unaware of herself and the prospect of vocabulary. I would like to know what happened to her in 1979 though.

50 Alyxherself June 16, 2010 at 5:17 pm

Can’t cheat on daddy.

Just…

I mean…

Whoa.

51 LB June 16, 2010 at 5:52 pm

Girl, you’ve been on a roll here lately. What did B put in your Raisin Bran? LOL!

I <3 you…and Britney Spears, that crazy heifer.

52 katelin June 16, 2010 at 6:31 pm

i absolutely love this list and couldn’t agree more about the crazy. i would maybe add that judge from SYTYCD, i don’t watch but man do i love when joel mchale makes fun of her, it’s ridiculous and she’s amazing.

53 sheree June 16, 2010 at 6:46 pm

OMG, i lvoe your blog and this just cracks me up!

kelly and danielle are crazy beezees!

54 Citygal June 16, 2010 at 6:50 pm

Oh how I love me some Housewives of NJ. Danielle is insane. I saw her last week on a Philly street. Her face looks so hard, like she’s been chain smoking since she was three. I will miss Dina though :(

55 sheree June 16, 2010 at 7:00 pm

PS started following your blog – i thought i already had – i love your blog! you crack me up!

56 amanda June 16, 2010 at 7:33 pm

HAHA! dude! that picture of britney makes me sad. she’s better now. give her some credit, yo. she is forever my girl. {mmm, i’m not ever embarrassed to say that}

and miley? she has some catchy songs. but since i’d willingly spread my legs for joel, he can tease all he wants.

57 Dawn June 16, 2010 at 8:01 pm

I forgot how disturbing that photo of Brittney was!! What a sight!!!

58 ally June 16, 2010 at 8:16 pm

i don’t know why i hate that talk soup guy. the brit pic made me feel sad though. i interviewed her when she was just starting out. poor girl.

59 tara June 16, 2010 at 8:54 pm

LOL. great post! i still cant believe miley’s parents encourage her to continue “being herself”.

60 nicopolitan June 16, 2010 at 9:03 pm

I don’t actually own a television so I have to prioritize my TV watching by what I should download off the internet. This here? It’s like my new TV Guide! Wait does that magazine even exist anymore? Regardless, yes. I had no idea some of these people existed, frankly, but I will gladly follow the trainwrecks.

Awesome.

61 E June 16, 2010 at 9:29 pm

lol to funny!! And yeah Speidi has been absent from the Hills lately….. kinda even makes the show bearable

62 Lucy June 16, 2010 at 11:34 pm

It is their IMBALANCE that keeps them in our lives for better or worse (LOL)

63 Nicole @ LaughOutLoud June 17, 2010 at 12:30 am

OH this made me giggle. SO hard.

I love how we can look at celebrities, and be like DUDE my life’s not that bad right?! haha.

64 siovhan June 17, 2010 at 12:43 am

Megan Fox drives me bat crap crazy. She’s an AWFUL actress and a completely crazy person! This list is SO acurate …. it’s a little scary. OH! And the Real Housewives ladies make me want to punch a baby.

65 Bri June 17, 2010 at 8:46 am

agreed. agreed. agreed. hilarious.

66 Tiffany June 17, 2010 at 9:24 am

This post was so funny~
Kelly Bensimon was so crazy on RHNY. I think part of the reason Jill and Luann turned on Bethenny is because they were jealous she got her own show.

67 Allison June 17, 2010 at 9:26 am

I agree with all your pics, although I believe Omarosa will be making a comeback and will need to be added to your list.

For crazy ass Danielle, I think you left off one of the best parts – her “secretly-stolen-sex-tape” taped conveniently last year and conveniently released as the show is airing. You devil, you.

68 Shelley June 17, 2010 at 9:31 am

I’m concerned that one day Milania (Theresa’s daughter on RHWofNJ) will turn into a Danielle or Kelly. Have you seen the way that 3 year old poses for the camera??

69 Dmbosstone June 17, 2010 at 9:37 am

So will you have similar feelings towards some of the Real Housewives of DC?

70 Hermia June 17, 2010 at 9:43 am

Ah God, I do wish Liza was my crazy aunt! *sigh*

And Miley *argh* she’s annoying me! This whole Britney line of “that’s how everyone dresses back home…gee whizz, what’s the problem”. She’s a goddamn dirty whore…like you said, own it!

And yaw, what was up with Meggers and her Mickey Tribute……lol, I just read that back…Mickey Tribute, priceless!

71 cari June 17, 2010 at 10:37 am

wow. i just read another post about crazy people, but these were all men. and all these child stars, seriously, they ALL go crazy i think. it’s the media attention. i swear it.

72 April June 17, 2010 at 3:42 pm

Um, hello! Have you seen the new music video Miley has out? Can’t Be Tamed? Seriously, how old is this girl? Here’s the link. Now you can watch it for yourself.
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=sjSG6z_13-Q

73 LA Cochran June 17, 2010 at 5:53 pm

I loved that Liza was so nice to Kathy when she was in way over her head and how Liza was willing to coach her. But, yeah, that cackle is priceless!

74 sammy June 17, 2010 at 7:28 pm

haha hilarious post!

even my kids have grown weary of miley cyrus so thank the lord for that!

75 KT June 18, 2010 at 10:19 am

LOVE LOVE LOVE the crazy bitches on the various Real Housewives. Here’s hoping the DC version that starts in August will have a couple of them!

76 Pauline June 18, 2010 at 11:40 am

“Miley “I’m Not Trying To Be A Slut” Cyrus, Hannah Montana, musical artist, and posing all sexy-like with her dad. ”

LOL. Ew. What is with today’s pop singers all trying desperately to be EXACTLY like Madonna circa “Truth Or Dare?” Sex has been done to death ladies, try to find something else to show the world!

77 Des June 19, 2010 at 2:07 pm

Your blog continues to impress me. You’re such a strong writer, and your posts are always engaging.

78 meleah rebeccah June 21, 2010 at 1:16 pm

I LOVE Kathy Griffin with my whole heart!

79 mel June 23, 2010 at 10:06 pm

I’m been saying FOREVER how Miley and Billy Ray are a little too close. :p Just. Ew.
