Top 10: The dumbest celeb tweets of 2011

Twitter provides us with a treasure trove of stupid statements from celebrities, and for that we are thankful.

Whether it is the unqualified analysis or the grammatically hysterical, these celeb tweets won spots on The Daily Caller’s list of the dumbest tweets of 2011:

10. Alec Baldwin

Alec Baldwin is no stranger to offensive comments. But in this tweet, he ridicules the readers to a site where he regularly contributes columns. That’s no way to talk to your readers, Alec:

“The reading comprehension level of the HuffPo comments folks is alarmingly low. I mean, downright awful.”

9. Charlie Sheen

Charlie Sheen has a laundry list of dumb and/or hilarious tweets. But Sheen really did a number when he attempted to direct message Justin Bieber his cell phone number, but actually publicly posted it to his five million followers.

“310-954-7277 Call me bro. C.”

8. Kim Kardashian

She may make millions off her Twitter endorsement deals, but her attempt at a joke enraged hundreds of Beliebers after she posted the “Dancing With the Stars” 1-800 number and called it Justin Bieber’s in an attempt to drum up votes for her brother Rob, who was a contestant on the show:

“OMG, I have @ JustinBieber’s phone #!!!! 800 8683402! CALL HIM! He’s taking calls for the next hour!!!”

7. Jessica Simpson

The sometime singer is not known for her brains, but she made zero sense in this tweet. Maybe it was jet lag?

“Sometimes learning the language in my head can be just as hard as communicating with someone foreign. alone time on flights get me everytime.”

6. Kenneth Cole

The fashion designer wrote an ill-advised tweet regarding the Arab Spring uprisings earlier this year. We think he should stick to making shoes, not jokes:

“Millions are in uproar in #Cairo. Rumor is they heard our new spring collection is now available online.”

5. Mary J. Blige

We hope the R&B singer was joking when she posted:

“Why is it that people understand estimate my intelligents?! They should never do that!”

4. Ashton Kutcher

The actor was reprimanded by hundreds of Twitter followers after he remarked on the firing of Penn State football coach, Joe Paterno, for allegedly covering up the sex scandal involving former assistant coach Jerry Sandusky and underage boys:

“How do you fire Jo Pa? #insult #noclass”

It wasn’t the first time he said something dumb (on Twitter or otherwise). Kutcher has since handed over his Twitter account to one of his staffers.

3. Charlie Sheen

We could have filled this list up with only Charlie Sheen tweets. His infamous tirade early this year made headlines everywhere. He had some great moments, but this is our favorite:

“I am on a drug, it’s called Charlie Sheen. It’s not available because if you try it you will die. Your face will melt off and your children will weep over your exploded body.”

2. Gilbert Gottfried

The comedian was fired from his job as the voice of the Aflac duck after he posted a series of insensitive tweets about the tsunami in Japan.

Among the offenders:

“I just split up with my girlfriend, but like the Japanese say, ‘the’ll will be another one floating by any minute now.'”

1. Paris Hilton

We know, we know. It’s shocking that the heiress made this list for saying something stupid. But it was just too good to be true when she tweeted:

“No, no. I didn’t go to England. I went to London.”

Readers,

Instead of sucking up to the political and corporate powers that dominate America, The Daily Caller is fighting for you — our readers. We humbly ask you to consider joining us in this fight.

Now that millions of readers are rejecting the increasingly biased and even corrupt corporate media and joining us daily, there are powerful forces lined up to stop us: the old guard of the news media hopes to marginalize us; the big corporate ad agencies want to deprive us of revenue and put us out of business; senators threaten to have our reporters arrested for asking simple questions; the big tech platforms want to limit our ability to communicate with you; and the political party establishments feel threatened by our independence.

We don't complain -- we can't stand complainers -- but we do call it how we see it. We have a fight on our hands, and it's intense. We need your help to smash through the big tech, big media and big government blockade.

We're the insurgent outsiders for a reason: our deep-dive investigations hold the powerful to account. Our original videos undermine their narratives on a daily basis. Even our insistence on having fun infuriates them -- because we won’t bend the knee to political correctness.

One reason we stand apart is because we are not afraid to say we love America. We love her with every fiber of our being, and we think she's worth saving from today’s craziness.

Help us save her.

A second reason we stand out is the sheer number of honest responsible reporters we have helped train. We have trained so many solid reporters that they now hold prominent positions at publications across the political spectrum. Hear a rare reasonable voice at a place like CNN? There’s a good chance they were trained at Daily Caller. Same goes for the numerous Daily Caller alumni dominating the news coverage at outlets such as Fox News, Newsmax, Daily Wire and many others.

Simply put, America needs solid reporters fighting to tell the truth or we will never have honest elections or a fair system. We are working tirelessly to make that happen and we are making a difference.

Since 2010, The Daily Caller has grown immensely. We're in the halls of Congress. We're in the Oval Office. And we're in up to 20 million homes every single month. That's 20 million Americans like you who are impossible to ignore.

We can overcome the forces lined up against all of us. This is an important mission but we can’t do it unless you — the everyday Americans forgotten by the establishment — have our back.

Please consider becoming a Daily Caller Patriot today, and help us keep doing work that holds politicians, corporations and other leaders accountable. Help us thumb our noses at political correctness. Help us train a new generation of news reporters who will actually tell the truth. And help us remind Americans everywhere that there are millions of us who remain clear-eyed about our country's greatness.

In return for membership, Daily Caller Patriots will be able to read The Daily Caller without any of the ads that we have long used to support our mission. We know the ads drive you crazy. They drive us crazy too. But we need revenue to keep the fight going. If you join us, we will cut out the ads for you and put every Lincoln-headed cent we earn into amplifying our voice, training even more solid reporters, and giving you the ad-free experience and lightning fast website you deserve.

Patriots will also be eligible for Patriots Only content, newsletters, chats and live events with our reporters and editors. It's simple: welcome us into your lives, and we'll welcome you into ours.

We can save America together.

Become a Daily Caller Patriot today.
