From trashy to trashier
Anna Nicole Smith
The Trashy Siren
Tacky history
From former Playmate of the Year to one of the most popular litigants of our time, Anna Nicole Smith just can't seem to stay away from trash. Born Vickie Lynn Hogan in 1967, the girl from Texas has gone from stripper to Guess model to Playboy playmate - and that was before things got really bad.
Just when you thought the blonde bombshell had bottomed out, the 26-year-old Smith married an 89-year-old oil tycoon - for true love, of course. He passed away just 14 months later. A bitter and bitchy seven-year court battle followed as the buxom Playboy playmate fought her dead husband's family for her share of the tycoon's millions.
Vile style
In the early days, the voluptuous Smith achieved a Marilyn Monroe look that was kitschy and almost cute. In recent years, however, she's gone too far. The make-up's got heavier, the hair higher and even her most famous assets seem to have taken on new proportions.
Trashy TV
And now, following in Ozzy Osbourne's illustrious footsteps, she's starring in her own weekly half-hour reality series, now airing on Sky One. The Anna Nicole Smith Show has been given an all-access pass to every area of the buxom blonde's life, complete with trips to the bathroom, the therapist's couch and her boudoir - sparking rumours of several naked, on-camera romps.
'People won't be able to stop watching once they tune in,' said the ever-modest Smith. 'My life is a roller coaster, so hold on and enjoy the ride!'
Christina Aguilera
The Trashy Mouseketeer
Tacky history
This young pop tart began her career on American TV's Mickey Mouse Club with fellow Mouseketeers Britney Spears and NSync's Justin Timberlake. Her bangs may have been a little big but she was sweet, innocent and trash-free in those days.
Fame came young (she won a Grammy for best new artist at the ripe old age of 18) but unfortunately, Aguilera, now 21, just hasn't managed to keep her image in check.
Vile style
Although she's always had a tendency for heavy make-up, this songstress seems to have let her vixen status go to her head lately, prancing around in lingerie not only in the privacy of her own mansion but on red carpets and award show stages from coast to coast. Much of the problem seems to be wrapped up in her hit 'Lady Marmalade' single last year. In a nod to the song's Moulin Rouge connection, she began appearing (along with Pink, Mya and Lil' Kim) all dolled up in fishnets, garter belts and corsets. The look, however, carried over from performances into real life.
The tiny singer (she's only 5ft 2in) also went through a period in which she attempted to make up for lost height with humongous hair.
