Teen Starlets and Psychotic Harlots - by Chloe Tejada

Britney Spears was pushed down to second place and teen queen Miley Cyrus took the throne as the number one search in entertainment. From stolen half-nude snapshots to the highly-publicized Vanity Fair fiasco (that also involved - shocker - nudity) it's no wonder Canadians want to know everything about Disney's good girl gone bad.

But we still can't get enough of Britney. Her crazy antics (which include locking herself and her son in her bathroom, being hospitalized twice in a month, being psychiatrically evaluated and making a career comeback) have fascinated Canadians making her the second most searched entertainment topic.

On a sadder note, the year started off with the tragic death of Heath Ledger. Fans searched for the actor as the sad events of his death unfolded, making his name one of the top searched for actors.

It seems as if Canadians want to be young again - or at least feel young. Teens such as the Jonas Brothers and the cast of Hannah Montana topped searches. Do we really like their music or is it really the behind-the-scenes gossip that makes us search for more? For American Idol fans it's definitely the scandals and backstage cattiness rather than the music that makes us wanting more. And music lovers searched the net for pop star Rihanna who stayed out of the gossip rags but came out with hit song after hit song such as fan favourite 'Disturbia.'

Rihanna aside, several other hot female celebs topped searches with Canadians looking up sexy Jessica Alba, Transformers star Megan Fox and bad girl Lindsay Lohan. All three have had their share of drama the past year but somehow we think that people are more interested in their photos than the gossip. Speaking of drama: one hit TV show stood out above the rest and it wasn't Gossip Girl. Longtime soap opera The Young and the Restless topped entertainment searches. Guess we can never get enough of our guilty pleasures.
