The notoriously potty-mouthed redhead let the four-letter word loose as she co-hosted CNN’s live New Year’s Eve Special with Anderson Cooper, slipping the F-word into a discussion about “balloon boy” Falcon Heene as she fumbled his first name.

When is CNN gonna learn?

10. KANYE WEST
"Kanye... Ima let you finish... but Tiger had one of the best meltdowns of all time!"

9. LINDSAY LOHAN
This is the year that Lindsay became officially irrelevant. Dropped from her label, horrible reviews of her fashion line ... she's this side of her non-existent reality show being canceled.

8. MORGAN FREEMAN
71-year-old Freeman made headlines after getting into a car crash with his alleged mistress ... and then came the rumors about an affair with his 27-year-old step-granddaughter.

7. MACKENZIE PHILLIPS
Detailing a long-time affair with her father, John Phillips, Mackenzie's book made us cringe.

6. CARRIE PREJEAN
In the 2009 Miss America pageant, Prejean denounced gay marriage and put her upstanding values on display. Also on display ... nude photos, an alleged sex tape, and her stripped ... of her crown.

5. ROMAN POLANKSI
After decades on the lam, the controversial director was arrested in Switzerland.

4. CHRIS BROWN
Beating a woman is NOT acceptable ... enough said.

3. JOHN AND KATE GOSSELIN
Who would have thought that 8 children and cameras in your home 24-7 would put a strain on a marriage. Crazy!

2. DAVID LETTERMAN
After an extortion attempt by the boyfriend of one of Dave's former personal assistants/lovers, Letterman had to go public with the whole mess.

1. TIGER WOODS
2009 is the year we learned that the world's greatest golfer is also quite the player ... and as the list of Tiger's mistresses grows, his bank account shrinks.

Think anyone should be added/removed from the list?

More of a dog fan myself, but cats have their moments too...

I would take this a step further and go to put the jacket on someone without them knowing lol... Jerk move, I know.... But you would laugh too if you were the one watching

Hands-down, the best Christmas lights display I've ever seen!

Brilliant idea!

Can't imagine how long it took to "orchestrate" everything... probably about as long as it's going to take to pay off the electric bill!

Bet the dad works for a lighting company or somethin'... lol

I challenged all the Jingle Ball 2009 performers to a draw off! Who's better with a Sharpie, me or the performers?

It all started with Tyler from Barenaked Ladies . . .

Then Nick from All-American Rejects showed me what he thinks I really look like . . .

Then it was Jason Castro's turn . . .

And Ingrid Michaelson proved she's an artist off-stage and on . . .

Thanks to all the performers for sharing their drawings with us!
