The Decade In Review

Band of the Decade
This honor goes to The Strokes though many other bands qualified.
They took downtown cool to the masses and revolutionized
modern day rock in a style conscious way.
RollingStone named Is This It the #2 album of the decade.
Honorable mentions
Radiohead
The White Stripes
and Coldplay

Rapper of the Decade
Eminem
No one can match Eminem in record sales, popularity, or skill,
though he did fade out near the end of the decade.
Honorable Mentions
Jay-Z
and Kanye West

Entertainer of the Decade
Britney Spears
Britney became a household name and stayed in the spotlight,
despite her several mishaps (K-Fed, shaving head, no underwear etc). She definitely made some of the catchiest pop
songs of the decade - "Toxic", "Opps I did it again", "Womanizer".
Honorable Mentions
Justin Timberlake
and Beyonce

Fuck Up of the Decade
It's a tie between Amy Winehouse
and Pete Dohertry.
Both were hooked on drugs, shouting obscenities, wandering around
without shoes, and basically creating a ruckus wherever they went;
Total fuck ups that the press ate up.

Movie Series of the Decade
Harry Potter
HP is iconic as far as fantasy films go. Though not as well made as Lord
of the Rings, HP created mass fandom through out the entire decade,
and there is still 1 more film left.
Honorable Mention
Lord of the Rings

TV Show of the Decade
American Idol
AI dominated ratings and created several superstars in the process
ie- Adam Lambert, Kelly Clarkson, Daughtry, Carrie Underwood.
Honorable Mention
Dr. Phil
