I did this paper about 5 underrated and 5 overrated historical figures for AP World History. I was just wondering...who do you believe is the most overrated or underrated entertainers (singers, actors, directors, etc) in the entertainment industry and why? You can also put up overrated or underrated movies, songs, etc.

Overrated - Umm let me think Jessica Simpson ( Do you really think she that stupid in real life)
Underated - I dont know. I think that if a celebrity has a low rate the reason is probably because they suck or just did something wrong to disappoint their fans.

This is just my opinion. Im not even sure.

That 70's show is funny! Mmmm... Ashton.

Well, Jessica Simpson is definately overrated as is Britney Spears. Hmm, who else...
Anna Kornikova,
Boa (sorry guys, but she sucks),
Usher,
50 Cent (he just sucks) and G-Unit (they all suck),
Paris Hilton (she's not even that cute, she reminds me of a little boy)...

Joss Stone is underrated. She's got an amazing voice!

i can't say nirvana is underrated. kurt cobain is a name synonymous with grunge. unless, you are speaking of nirvana as in the mental state.

I completely forgot about that! I love how everything in there relates to Eminem. thumbsup.gif

Heh...at first, I thought it said "overrated" and I was going to agree with you, but pinch.gif I would say they're overrated. Same with Jet. I'm thinking, "No, you can't bring back the good old rock n' roll, trust me. It died; leave it be."

One big underrated thing is: createblog!
Other underrated stuff I thought of:
"Ill-Ustrated" laugh.gif
Keira Knightley
Natalie Portman
Saving Silverman
"Wild Boyz"
JTHM
Steve Zahn

Other overrated stuff I thought of:
Mean Girls
Anime (haha I'm sorry if I offended anyone)
Ruffled skirts
Skate/BMX shirts (if you don't actuall skate or ride)

Bah...all I can think of for now...trust, me more to come.

I didn't see this. No, because there are plenty of people that think they're overrated. _dry.gif They think the only reason Nirvana is known is because Kurt [didn't] kill[ed] himself.

"Ill-Ustrated" definitely is underrated-- I think Vh1 is underrated. I love VH1. (Right, Kathleen?) _smile.gif I also think that Cartoon Network is underrated and that Disney Channel and MTV are overrated. Nick@Nite is also underrated. _smile.gif

Well, that's good because perhaps people will stop liking him and he can marry Kathleen. _smile.gif

Oh, and I meant to add Eternal Sunshine of the Spotless Mind as being underrated...no one has ever watched that movie, but trust me, it's great.
