The 10 Most Popular People in the 2011
We’ve entered the last month of this year, and it is time to set down our scores and make a quick look back over the last 365 days. Who were the most popular people in this year? And who the most influential? Who became a household name around the world? We have to admit, this was a really tough tear, we lost some really great people and the death of some dictators shock the public on two occasions. Also, we had few scandals, when some private footage leaked in public and an inevitable celebrity divorces which raised all sorts of speculations. The overall and general impression, at least according to this list, is that the year of 2011 was the year of women, because only three, oh… I’ve forgotten Bieber, – four men who managed to get on this list! Let’s see who were the most popular people in 2011:
1. Emma Watson
With the grand finale of Harry Potter in the 2011 and Emma Watson finally turning 21, her popularity went through the roof! Her face was on every cover magazine, she was guest in each TV show, and her fans even started digging for some more obscene photos of their favorite actress. Emma admitted that she was a bit tired of it all, and that she needed a rest from Hermione, since that little witch was following her everywhere she went, for the last ten years. She even cut off her hair to symbolically break up with that character. But it’s not all bad, that little witch earned her several awards and more than £10 million.
2. Amy Winehouse
As we said earlier, the year of 2011 was a year of some really bad losses. In July, 2011 we had to say goodbye to Amy Winehouse, amazing singer-songwriter known not only for her powerful deep contralto vocals and her eclectic mix of musical genres, but unfortunately for her propensity to vices. She was found dead in her house, due to alcohol poisoning on July 23rd and from that moment her name became the ultimate buzzword in media. She somehow miraculously and over the night made the leap from a no good bum for which she was considered while still alive, to the musical genius and marvelous artist.
3. Angela Markel
The year of 2011 was definitely the year of women, as female politicians, musicians, actresses and public figures have completely suppressed their male colleagues. Angela Merkel, the current Chancellor of Germany, President of the European Council and chairman (or chairwoman) of the G8, became one of the most often mentioned politicians in all news lately, and especially with the latest problems in the European Union and the troubles with devaluation of the euro. We have no doubt she’ll manage to overcome all these troubles.
4. Kim Kardashian
We’re not equally proud of all the people from this list. This is just a list of all of those who gained some crazy extra media attention in 2011. Kim Kardashian and her divorce with Kris Humphries after the scandalously short period of time (only 72 days) stirred the public. Many speculated how much she earned on this instant marriage and divorce.
5. Osama Bin Laden
Bin Laden is the first of two villains to whom we said goodbye in 2011. He was the founder of the militant Islamist organization Al-Qaeda, the jihadist organization responsible for the September 11. On May 2nd, 2011, bin Laden was shot and killed inside a private residential compound in Abbottabad, Pakistan.
6. Muammar Gaddafi
The second is Muammar Gaddafi. He was also known as Colonel Gaddafi, and he was the official ruler of the Libyan Arab Republic from 1969 to 1977 and then the “Brother Leader” of the Libyan Arab Jamahiriya from 1977 to 2011. On 20th October 2011 he was captured by a rebel militia and almost immediately deeply disturbing footage, showing him all bloody and in a torn shirt as the rebels kept kicking him and punching him in the face, was released to public. Latter on, it was confirmed that he was dead.
7. Mila Kunis
This beautiful young lady had and enormous break through in the 2011 when her career had a rocket ascent initiated with her appearing in Black Swan, along with…
8. Natalie Portman
Both of them latter took up easier parts in romantic comedy movies, but we’re all hoping to see them in some better roles.
9. Steve Jobs
Steve Jobs, co-founder, chairman, and former CEO of Apple Inc is another great man that has left us in 2011. He was inventor widely recognized as a charismatic pioneer of the personal computer revolution. On October 5, 2011, around 3:00 p.m., Jobs died at his home in Palo Alto, California, aged 56, six weeks after resigning as CEO of Apple. A copy of his death certificate indicated respiratory arrest as the immediate cause of death, with “metastatic pancreas neuroendocrine tumor” as the underlying cause. His occupation was listed as “entrepreneur” in the “high tech” business. During the first few days after his death media praised him, glorified him and rose him to absurd.
10. Justin Bieber
We can’t possibly make a list of most popular people in the 2011 without mentioning Justin Bieber. There is an ongoing craze about him among young teenage girls. I’m not really sure what they see in this guy, but he is insanely popular and somehow everyone seems to be so taken by his religiousness, way of talk and behavior. Honestly, I feel the need to punch him in the face, but… hey, it’s not like anyone has asked me for an opinion.

Top 5 Sexy Female Hackers On Earth
We always heard about Male Hackers.. What about the female hackers? Can you imagine what they can do, if one of them be your girlfriend? See the following Sexy Female Hackers below..
Ying Cracker
Ying Cracker is a teacher from Shanghai. She teach people the basic how to change IP address or wiping office password.
She’s an expert in hacker software writing and charges good money for courses on simple hacking tools. She also charges between RMB 500-5000 in helping other people crack software and usually makes about RMB 15,000 per month in the hacking business and for that, she deserves your respect.
Joanna Rutkowska
Joanna Rutkowska may be referred to as a sellout in the hacker world, but she’s one really hot sellout and still a completely awesome hacker to boot, so you’ve got to give her that.
Rutkowska is a Polish babe who specializes in developing software and tools to counter hackers in the webiverse. So she’s kind of a protector of the common man against machines, Terminator style.
She’s, of course, an elite hacker herself and has launched her own security services startup called Invisible Things Labs (which as far as software goes, actually isn’t a bad name.) Even teaming up with the “good guys” at Microsoft, Rutkowska advised vice president of Microsoft’s Security Technology Unit on tightening the security on Windows Vista (so yes, we all have something we need to forgive her for.)
Kristina Svechinskaya
Kristina Svechinskaya is a New York University student who was arrested on November 2, 2010 for defrauding US and British banks out of millions of dollars — and you thought your ex was insane.
Along with eight other people, Svechinskaya hacked into thousands of bank accounts and skimmed $3 million in total. That’s right. The bra you see her wearing in this picture could possibly be made of diamonds.The group had plans to steal a total of $220 million, you know, just enough to get by. Acting as a “money mule,” the Russian beauty was charged with opening at least five bank accounts which received $35,000 of the stolen money.
It’s no surprise why Svechinskaya is being dubbed the “world’s sexiest computer hacker.” Her seductive gaze and revealing outfits can melt the firewalls off any server (that’s how you say that, right?)
The New York hacker was released on $25,000 bail, though her sentence is still being pushed through the system (which means that hey, $10k in profit.)
If convicted on the plot charges and false passports charges, Svechinskaya can serve up to 40 years in prison, which would really amount to a huge h**l of a waste — but hey, if Mila Kunis gets her Russian accent working, then she may have another Black Swan level movie to star in.
Xiao Tian
Move over male Asian nerdy computer geeks, female Asian nerdy computer geeks are here to stay.
There’s a new tech group in town and God bless them, they’re female and smoking hot. Oh, and dangerous.
No, “Cn (China) Girl Security Team” isn’t the original name for the latest iteration of Power Rangers, it is a Chinese female hacker group that currently has 2,217 members and counting. It’s headed by Xiao Tian (pictured in all her awesomely hot glory to your left), who’s only 19 years old and from the looks of it, has something else going for her besides extremely good hacking skills (great fashion sense, duh.)
This kind of brings in a whole new level of suspension of disbelief in the world’s events. Apparently, I was wrong my entire life because yes, they exist: super geniuses who are also dream girl status.
After this I’m going to get started on my long, thorough and sincere apology letter to Michael Bay.
Xiao Tian created the now-infamous hacking team because she felt that there was no other outlet for teenage girls like herself in the male-dominated world of hacking.
Raven Adler
One look at Raven Adler and you know she’s got some edge. Sure, she’s not a Playboy Playmate, but we’ve all learned from drunken nights and from “growing up” that any really cute goth-looking chicks are not only usually cooler than your run-of-the-mill blonde, but a LOT more exciting where it counts: on the internet.
Raven was the first woman to ever present at the DefCon’s hacker conference, but she doesn’t plan on using her sex to her advantage any time soon. In fact, she has expressed on many occasions her utter dislike of being cast as a “chick hacker.”
