It’s that time again! Barbara released a portion of her annual ‘Most Fascinating People’ list and as usual, some of the names are quite surprising — including ‘Fifty Shades of Grey’ author E.L. James!
The cute British boy band One Direction and the scandalous author E. L. James are some of the more interesting names on Barbara Walters’ annual “Most Fascinating People” list for 2012. Good choices, Barbara! The View host announced most of the list on Nov. 19, and Barbara Walters’ 10 Most Fascinating People will air on Dec. 12. Read on to find out who else she considers “fascinating.”
The other lucky people deemed fascinating include actor Ben Affleck, Secretary of State Hilary Clinton, gymnast Gabby Douglas, New Jersey’s Governor Chris Christie, Family Guy creator Seth MacFarlane, along with 1D and Fifty Shades of Grey author E. L. James!
So who was snubbed from the list? Honey Boo Boo! Barbara’s co-host’s on The View asked why the reality star didn’t make the cut, and Barbara agreed that “she is a phenomenon, she is fascinating,” but not everyone can make the list. Maybe next year, Honey Boo Boo!
The number one fascinating person of 2012 will be announced on the show. Who do you think it will be? Justin Bieber?
What do YOU think of Barbara’s list, HollywoodLifers?
