Summer Gossip Awards

While most people like to wait until the end of the year to stop and take a look back at what\'s happened over the previous 12 months, here at handbag.com we like to do things differently. So welcome to our new annual Summer Gossip Awards where we honour the good and the great from the world of celebrity. Whether they want our awards is another thing...

The Worst Name Given To A Baby Award - Cate Blanchett

Everyone knows celebrities can\'t resist a crazy name for their offspring so picking a winner was always going to be tough. But while Nicole Kidman made a late surge for the prize when she called her daughter Sunday, in the end we plumped for Indiana Jones star Cate Blanchett who welcomed her son Ignatius to the world, and a lifetime of teasing we\'d imagine, back in April.

Most Unsuccessful Hair Experiment Award - Amy Winehouse

Love or loathe her, you have to take your wig off to Amy Winehouse who, despite the constant jibes, has stayed admirably loyal to her beehive in the last year. The only blot on her copybook was her ropey dabble with bleach in January. The only good thing we can say is that at least she only kept the look for a few days before seeing sense.

The Air Traveller Of The Year Award - Naomi Campbell

A total shoe-in! No one even came close (or would dare probably!) to taking the honours from Naomi Campbell. As the owner of one of the most famous tempers in the celebrity world no one was surprised by the news that Naomi was in hot water for an air-rage incident at London\'s Heathrow this year. But even by her standards it was a corker, which in the end led to her being fined £2,250 for assaulting police officers. And she\'s still fighting, after accusing airline staff of racism she\'s now facing the possibility of being sued for defamation by the same BA workers.

The \'Are They/Aren\'t They?\' Award - Madonna and Guy Ritchie

First Guy\'s step-mother called them \'total tosh\', then Madonna\'s official spokeswoman flatly denied them and finally the Queen of pop herself spoke out against them but still the rumours of Madonna and Guy Ritchie\'s divorce continue. With it now being suggested that Madonna is behind baseball star Alex Rodriguez\' recent divorce and her world tour about to start, and the enforced separation that brings, expect the rumours to continue for a while.

The \'She Did What?!\' Award - Victoria Beckham

Over the years she\'s put up with criticism of her singing, acting, designing and everything in between but one thing no one could ever accuse Victoria Beckham of is having dodgy taste in men. That all changed in June however when she admitted she once briefly dated washed-up Lost Boys star Corey Haim! Terrible.

The \"Hello Cleveland!\" Award - Usher

First rule of touring? Remember where you are. Audiences tend not to like it if you get that key piece of information mixed up. Everyone knows that right? Wrong, multi-million selling r \'n\' b professional Usher doesn\'t. But he probably does now after he strode confidently on stage at the Radio One Big Weekend and told the Maidstone crowd how excited he was to be in Manchester!

The Lifetime Achievement Award For Weirdness Award - Tom Cruise

No celebrity has given us such great value over the years quite like Tom Cruise. Yes, he\'s had an incredibly successful film career but what\'s really impressed us here at handbag.com has been his increasingly odd public image. This year alone he\'s been mocked for his performance in a leaked Scientology video, accused of brainwashing Will Smith and had his singing and dancing skills laughed at the world over. And long may it continue. Tom, we salute you!

The Slowest Nine Months Ever Award - Angelina Jolie

The Keep It To Yourself Award - Robbie Williams

While his former Take That band-mates lead the way in pop reunions, Robbie Williams, currently kicking back in Los Angeles, has been telling anyone who\'ll listen about UFOs and even claiming to have been visited by aliens three times. Probably time to get back to work, Rob.

The Good Luck With That Award - Michael Jackson

Michael Jackson,celebrity gossip,celebrity news,celebrity pictures,awards Summer gossip awards - Michael Jackson

You could argue these days that you can\'t really be called a celebrity anymore without your own clothing and fragrance lines. Just one look at the Olsen twins accounts (they\'re said to be billionaires) tells you how much money you can make, but not everyone is a success. Latest to join the designing trend is Michael Jackson and frankly, if his range is anything like the clothes he decks himself out in, selling his wares to the public sounds like a task from The Apprentice to us!

The Sounds Like A Nice Guy Award - 50 Cent

50 Cent,celebrity gossip,celebrity news,celebrity pictures,awards Summer gossip awards - 50 Cent

Since the start of 2008, 50 Cent has seemed to be on a mission to challenge the phrase "there\'s no such thing as bad press". In that time we\'ve seen him win the legal right to evict his son from his house, sue a fast food chain for a charity stunt involving the use of his name and even moan about the quality of groupies he\'s received recently. How could we give the award to anyone else?

The Say What? Award - Rupert Everett and Sharon Stone

With teams of press agents and handlers it\'s rare these days for celebrities to land themselves in hot water for poorly thought out quotes. But Sharon Stone and Rupert Everett did so so spectacularly this year it was impossible to separate them. First Basic Instinct star Sharon received global mocking and condemnation when she said that China\'s earthquake tragedy, in which 80,000 were killed, might have been "karma". A month later Rupert was forced to apologise for saying that British soldiers serving in Iraq were "whining wimps". 

Wedding Of The Year - Coleen and Wayne

If an over the top celebrity wedding-cum-magazine photo shoot is what you\'re after, look no further than the Premier League. This year it was the turn of Wayne Rooney and Coleen McLoughlin who got hitched in a reported £2.5m ceremony in Portofino, Italy this summer. Coleen\'s Marchesa dress alone was said to cost £100,000.

Villain Of The Year - Heather Mills

Whether she\'s advising everyone to drink rat\'s milk, giving a headline-grabbing TV interview or announcing her £24.3m divorce settlement from Paul McCartney, no other celebrity holds a candle to Heather Mills in the unpopularity stakes. But with her acrimonious split finally settled and her promising to disappear to the US, will she able to defend her title next year? We\'ll see.
