	I'm actually glad I didn't do that well on this one! :)

	FreakyFlyBry:	Aug 25th, 2010 at 04:27 GMT	3 points
	How did I forget Martha Stewart? That was all over the news then!

	masaeaida:	Aug 25th, 2010 at 04:48 GMT	11 points
	Soon-Yi wasn't Woody Allen's adopted daughter--she was just his partner's (adopted, though I don't think this qualifier is necessary) daughter. Otherwise, great!

	PEE WEE

	Masaeida: you do realize that its pretty much the same? He was her father figure since she was three, its the same psychologically as incest. @OP: Good quiz, please accept oconner without the apostrophe

	I love that sporcle allows us to just type in "Peewee Herman" for Paul Reubens, because I can never remember his real name.

	No, it's Tonya. Fun quiz!

	lalalala:	Aug 25th, 2010 at 05:35 GMT	25 points
	Let's count how many people over inflate their self-worth and go "OMG aren't I so cool, I did terrible on this quiz! Bow to my superiority because I'm such a shut-in!" (Here's looking at you, rockhopperlad.)

	how is lindsay lohan not on this quiz somehow?

	masaeaida:	Aug 25th, 2010 at 06:37 GMT	4 points
	@CaptainAmerica50: I completely agree with you, but I still think the clue should be technically accurate.

	Detektor:	Aug 25th, 2010 at 06:45 GMT	8 points
	@CaptainAmerica50: Difficult, since they met when she was ten, but I agree with the general sentiment. The quiz should be factually accurate, though.

	confused:	Aug 25th, 2010 at 06:59 GMT	6 points
	Oh lalalala, I do terribly on many, many quizzes - if I can bomb one without having to feel wretchedly inadequate, I'm not arguing! Nicely done quiz, Tats.

	Just learned something new about Jackie Chan.

	Sadly, two of them have passed at an early age.

	How could you leave out the biggest scandal of all, OJ Simpson?

	Also Roman Polanski raped an underage girl (but is still idolised by certain sections of the media) - Gotta be worth a shout?

	Jade Goodey?!?!!? not a celebrity.

	dudemanbearpig:	Aug 25th, 2010 at 11:41 GMT	11 points
	Q: Who are the three most famous people to be shot in the back of the head? A: Abraham Lincoln, John F. Kennedy, and the guy who sat in front of Pee Wee Herman.

	Fidelio:	Aug 25th, 2010 at 11:59 GMT	4 points
	@CaptainAmerica50 - No, Woody Allen was most certainly not Soon-Yi's "father figure" since she was three. When she was three, she was living in Asia, and it would be years before she even entered Mia Farrow's life and moved to the U.S. And while it's impossible for outsiders to ascertain exactly how she viewed Woody Allen growing up, she's said that it's "laughable" that she ever saw him as a father-figure. If you want to call the man a sleaze for cheating on his girlfriend with her daughter, go ahead...but the quiz is absolutely false, and so is your claim.

	The clue says SOME thought this neurotic director Bananas when he married his much younger adopted daughther. I think EVERYONE thinks he is Bananas after doing that!! Dirty Pervert!!

	Saxonthebeach:	Aug 25th, 2010 at 12:19 GMT	5 points
	Hehehe... "hole in one wasn't enough"... totally going to be giggling about that all day.

	TL333s:	Aug 25th, 2010 at 12:21 GMT	7 points
	Why nothing before the 90's? And who the hell is Jake Goody?

	Kicking222:	Aug 25th, 2010 at 12:23 GMT	3 points
	@TL333s: If you notice, there's one scandal per year- the quiz's creator could've gone further back had they chosen to, but they didn't, and I'm completely fine with that. Really good quiz, but I'm a bit depressed that I knew all of them except for the "Big Brother" one- and I could even tell you who he said the (supposedly) racist remarks about. Clearly, I have issues.

	BonnieH:	Aug 25th, 2010 at 12:27 GMT	0 points
	I'm ashamed I did so well. I couldn't come up with Fleiss' name, though I certainly remembered the story and the other three I missed I never heard of. I probably wouldn't have done so well without the hints within the clues. Thank you! The Tiger Woods one still has me laughing.

	@dudemanbearpig: eeeewwwww!!!

	bjork attacked a reporter? didnt hear about that one

	sub:	Aug 25th, 2010 at 14:06 GMT	6 points
	for 2007, you could've used Michael Vick and the dogfighting ring, or Anna Nicole Smith and "who's the daddy", or even Marion Jones admitting to steroid use.

	tk925:	Aug 25th, 2010 at 14:23 GMT	10 points
	Martha Stewart was in prison for obstruction of justice and making false statements to federal investigators, not insider trading.

	AlexKrycek:	Aug 25th, 2010 at 14:40 GMT	3 points
	@smater_than_you, with all that Lindsay Lohan has done, she could have a scandal quiz soley devoted to antics.

	Bob91351:	Aug 25th, 2010 at 14:47 GMT	4 points
	Considering I have never even watched Big Brother USA, there was NO WAY I was gonna guess somebody from the UK version...

	drthunder07:	Aug 25th, 2010 at 15:18 GMT	7 points
	On the scale of all the weird sh** Michael Jackson has done, the one picked rates about a 2

	DogMagic:	Aug 25th, 2010 at 15:39 GMT	-1 points
	Why the hell must I type Ashley Simpson-Wentz? I don't think they were even together at the time.

	sammyb:	Aug 25th, 2010 at 15:54 GMT	-3 points
	Even though I did so badly, I think you could remove most of the 'nudg' nudge wink wink' capital letters, because as soon as you see Fame and Toxic by example, you know it's Britney without having to read the whole sentence.
