If given the opportunity to sit down for a beer with any famous female figure, which famous women would you most want to get a drink with? Similar to the list of celebrity men you'd want to have a drink with you're not picking these ladies because you want to get them drunk and see where the night goes. You're choosing who out of all the interesting famous people on the planet would be your ultimate pick to grab a beer with -- actresses, models, music artists, comedians, directors, politicians, athletes, and even billionaires could all be great choices.
You have to consider, when picking who you'd want at the barstool next to you, who you would have the best time with, the things you would talk about, likability, what you would have in common (do you like the same sports teams, movies, food are you from the same state), fun personality, most down to earth and who would make the best drinking buddy. Do not focus solely on looks.
There some of the most well-known, famous women on the planet on here, including Olivia Wilde, Pippa Middleton and Katy Perry. These are three very different women, but all you'd want to spend time with. So which of these famous ladies would you have the best time with?

List of the most desirable qualities in a woman, what men really want and how to become popular as a female. This list will help women in understanding men because the items on this list have been voted on and ranked by the public. The best qualities in a woman are important to consider when choosing or seeking a mate and even when beginning a friendship. The best qualities in women could also be the best qualities in a person, but tweaked for qualities a woman should have.
When it comes to meeting new people, it's important to consider how their qualities and personal traits align with your own; there's no sense in forging a relationship with someone who doesn't share your values and qualities. This list of the top qualities in a woman is meant to sort out the good qualities a woman should have and list them in order of the most important qualities for women to have.
Some people would say that the best quality a woman can have is her patience or her nurturing skills. Others would argue that a woman's best quality is her independence or free spirit. When considering the qualities to look for in a mate, many different traits will come into play, but the qualities in a woman nearer to the top of this list of the top qualities in a woman are some of the basic qualities to look for in a girlfriend or mate.
What is the best quality a woman can have? What are the most important personality traits in women? What are the top qualities a good woman has? Defining the top qualities for women is highly subjective and will change from person to person, but this list of the greatest qualities for women to have seeks to take opinions from a variety of users and compile them into one list highlighting the best qualities in women. If you see an essential quality for a woman to have isn't listed, feel free to add it to the list and make sure to vote for the essential qualities for a woman to have.

The best World War 2 movies remind us that perhaps no single event has had a greater impact on the future of filmmaking than World War II. It arrived at the dawn of a new era in glossy, professional mainstream filmmaking, and it affected literally every facet of daily life in North America, Europe and Asia, where most of the world's films were being produced. World War 2 has remained a constant subject of fascination for filmmakers from the 1940s to the present day. If you're interested in more movies you can watch right now on Netflix then check out our lists on the best action movies on Netflix, best drama movies and best comedies on Netflix.
Though "WWII Films" could be classified as a separate genre from the general heading of "War Movies," they take on a lot of different styles, forms and tones. There are authentic WWII recreations, epic takes on the history of the entire period, personal stories about the soldiers, spies, revolutionaries and resistance fighters who fought the war and, naturally, sagas about the civilians of the time whose lives were forever changed by the conflict.
Many of the WW2 films on this list - from "Patton" to "Casablanca" to "Saving Private Ryan" - have secured their place among the most iconic films of all time. Which of these good films are the best? Rerank your own list to nominate your favorites for this CrowdRanked collection of the best WWII films, and then be sure to vote on your favorites.

You love anime but what tops this list of the best anime series ever made? The blanket term "anime" in the US can refer to any animation originating in Japan, and specifically differentiates a few aspects of Japanese animation from more Western styles. (This includes the Japanese propensity to feature adult themes and stories in animation, as opposed to Western "cartoons" aimed primarily at children, as well as the exaggerated, fantasy-oriented and colorful style of Japanese animated visuals.) "Anime" can refer either to animated films or TV series, furthering the confusion. (Anime is often incorrectly used to refer to Japanese comic books as well. These are actually known as "manga," though many anime series are based on or inspired by popular manga.) Check out the best anime of 2014 for newer recommendations!
Anime TV series first found popularity outside of Japan in the 1980s and have continued to find larger and larger audiences in the West. A number of anime shows originating in Japan - such as Cowboy Bebop or Dragon Ball Z - have found enthusiastic audiences for dubbed versions in English speaking countries. (Pokemon, a series inspired by Nintendo's blockbuster series of video games, has been an ongoing hit franchise in both Japan and the US.) The anime style has grown so popular in the US, it has stared to significantly influence the style and aesthetics of American animation. Shows such as Avatar: The Last Airbender, Afro Samurai and Samurai Jack have borrowed heavily from anime in terms of pacing, subject matter, and design.
This list collects the best Japanese anime TV series of all time. American series that have been influenced by anime, such as Avatar: The Last Airbender, are not included.

Are you drunk? Do you own a bunch of guns? Are you a racist, hateful jerk? Do you own a 300-foot yacht? If you answered yes to any or all of those questions, you might be on this week's list of the Worst People! Because this week, we're full up on drunk idiots with guns, racists, grifters, people who want to "take our country back" by blowing it up, and guys doing terrible things related to the high seas.
As always, these aren't the murders and terrorists of the world - those are always the worst people. Instead, these are the idiots, and the lunatics, along with the people who think the KKK was just ducky, gay teens should stay in the closet, protected coral reefs are their private playgrounds, and the only thing better than driving drunk is driving drunk while armed.
Here are the Worst People of the Week - vote early and vote often for the lamest of the bunch.
http://www.ranker.com/list/worst-person-of-the-week-012916/mike-rothschild,
Gwyneth Paltrow
What Happened: The actress's lifestyle website Goop published a long interview with nutritionist and "holistic healer" Ann Louise Gittleman, who detailed how people can take drastic steps to protect themselves from "cell phone toxicity and wifi poisoning" - medical conditions that don't actually exist.
The Details: Paltrow's site has long been criticized for the space it gives to unscientific concepts like detoxing, cleansing, and quack medical treatments. The interview with Gittleman is particularly egregious, as it serves no purpose other than to scare people into thinking their cell phones are going to fry their brain with radiation.
Gittleman herself has no background in electronics or science; instead, she has a PhD in holistic healing from a non-accredited college. The interview links the minor amount of radiation from cell phones and wifi with cancer, a link that numerous reputable health and science organizations assert does not exist. She claims that children who go to schools with wifi capability are at risk for a host of mental and physical disorders and that pregnant women are especially vulnerable to "cell phone toxicity." And she throws around meaningless terms like "digital dementia", "electromagnetically clean", "second-hand radiation," and "electropollution," all of which are made up.
While it's not clear if Paltrow played any part in the interview (it's a Q&A with no byline), she's the editor of the site, and as such, should know better than to foist such dangerous gibberish on her readers.
Paul Allen
What Happened: The co-founder of Microsoft was accused of wiping out 80% of the coral reef in West Bay in the Cayman Islands with the anchor chain of his yacht.
The Details: Allen's 300-foot yacht is said to have dragged its anchor chain through the protected reef, demolishing over 14,000 square feet of it. He then fobbed the blame off on local Port Authority, claiming his crew docked the yacht where they were told to, and moved it when alerted to the damage they'd caused.
Despite laws on the books that allow for fines against ships that destroy coral reefs in the area, it's unlikely Allen will face any legal or financial consequences for his environmental damage.
Sally Kern
What Happened: The Oklahoma state rep sponsored a bill that would bar suicidal LGBT youth in the state from seeking out a gay-affirmative counselor - despite such teens having higher rates of depression, mental illness, and suicide.
The Details: Kern is infamous for being among the most anti-gay elected officials in the country, consistently defaming gay people and sponsoring radical legislation that would curtail their rights. Among her efforts this legislative session are a bill that would forbid HIV-positive people from marrying, and another bill that would protect so-called "conversion therapy" - a discredited and debunked form of "gay conversion."
The most dangerous bill Kern is sponsoring is one that would bar any school official from referring a student to an “individual, organization or entity” if the matter “pertain[s] to human sexuality." It would force students to get parental permission to go to counseling, effectively outing students in the closet and barring access for students going on their own. Essentially, it forces depressed gay teens to either out themselves or suffer in silence.
Fortunately, most of Kern's bills die in committee and never make it to law.
Joseph Stetson
What Happened: Stetson was allegedly drunk and armed with a pellet gun when he was arrested in Oregon on his way to the Malheur Refuge standoff to help kill federal agents.
The Details: The standoff has involved no shortage of deranged characters, from ringleader Ammon Bundy to the anonymous man shrieking on a livestream for people to kill agents at roadblocks. But Stetson epitomizes the mindset of the men and women who took over the remote birdwatching facility - drunk, armed, and looking for a government employee to shoot.
In this case, Stetson was driving erratically and was taken into custody when he stopped at a gas station. While being arrested, he claimed he was a former Green Beret whose records were personally sealed by Ronald Reagan, that he was the last hope for humanity, and that he'd kill all of the officers who arrested him. As a felon convicted of burglary and menacing, Stetson is likely prohibited from owning an actual firearm.
Michael Misiewicz
What Happened: Navy commander Michael Misiewicz pleaded guilty to a staggering range of corruption charges, admitting he leaked military secrets to a defense contractor in exchange for cash, prostitutes, luxury goods, and even tickets to a Lady Gaga concert.
The Details: The Navy is currently carrying out a massive purge of corrupt officers, with over 100 personnel under investigation, and nine already pleading guilty. Misiewicz was accused of giving a Singapore-based defense contractor access to classified ship movements in his role as deputy director of operations for the 7th Fleet. Knowing when specific ships were docking in Singapore allowed the contractor to jack up prices, bilking the Navy out of over $20 million.
In exchange for the classified information, the contractor gave Misiewicz cash, plane tickets for him and his family, luxury goods, and VIP concert tickets. They also arranged with local escort services to book prostitutes in luxury hotels for Misiewicz during visits to Singapore and Thailand.
Bruce O'Brien
What Happened: Massachusetts resident O'Brien was frustrated by the slow speed of the snow plow he was driving behind. So he got out his gun and opened fire while passing it.
The Details: The 60-year-old man was driving drunk in the middle of a snow storm, when he got caught behind a plow doing its plow thing of clearing snow so people like Bruce O'Brien could drive. After a while, O'Brien got antsy and passed the plow in the oncoming lane. To indicate his displeasure, he then fired three shots, though it wasn't clear if he was firing in the air or at the plow itself.
The snow plow driver called police, then followed O'Brien, who was arrested and hit with a slew of charges, including assault with a deadly weapon.
Tommy Benton
What Happened: Benton is a Georgia state Representative who introduced two bills, one to protect Confederate statues, and the other to make Robert E. Lee's birthday a state holiday. He also praised the KKK and compared anyone attempting to remove the Confederate flag to ISIS.
The Details: First elected to the Georgia House in 2004, Benton has spent his career trying to protect Confederate heritage and symbols. Among his proposed bills - most of which have no support - is a proposal to rename Martin Luther King Drive in Atlanta after a Confederate General who helped found the KKK.
In his most recent onslaught of bills, he proposed to forever protect the Stone Mountain carvings of Lee, Stonewall Jackson, and Jefferson Davis; and to formally recognize Confederate Memorial Day and Lee's birthday as state holidays. Most of the controversy, however, came for comments he made denying that the Civil War was fought over the issue of slavery and praising the KKK's ability to keep order.
Benton, a retired history teacher, told the Atlanta Journal Constitution that the Klan “was not so much a racist thing but a vigilante thing to keep law and order. It made a lot of people straighten up,” he said. “I’m not saying what they did was right. It’s just the way things were.” Democratic lawmakers in Georgia called the comments unconscionable.
Richard L. Martin
What Happened: The 59-year-old Postal Service employee was arrested after attacking his supervisor with a chair while shouting racial slurs.
The Details: While Martin has a history of mental health issues, he'd never been violent at work until this incident, in which he walked into his boss' office, punched her in the face, then went after her with her chair. He then ran out of the post office and was on the loose for almost an entire day before being arrested upon his return home.
Martin had accumulated enough years of service to retire with a full pension - at least until this incident.
Daniel E. Musso
What Happened: The 54-year-old New Hampshire man was arrested trying to buy nearly a quarter of a million dollars worth of grenades, explosives, and "rocket-type stuff" that he would use in a one-man quest to bring back "the original Constitution."
The Details: Musso was long known to the FBI as a gun-rights activist and militant, having been arrested and Tazed for disrupting an anti-gun rally and heckling a man whose daughter was murdered. In early 2015, he'd given a gun dealer thousands of dollars in his quest to buy automatic weapons, explosives, and body armor. He was soon approached by an undercover agent, and set up a buy of grenades and plastic explosives. All in all, it would involve over $200,000 worth of material that Musso intended to sell to other militants.
Musso claimed he was part of a group of people who would use violent methods to make the US return to the "original Constitution" and that he needed a bunch of grenades because the government was on to him. He was charged with possession of an unregistered firearm.

The '90s bands and solo artists that populate this list cover all musical categories.
From the East Coast/West Coast rap wars, to the grunge era, to low-fi garage rock, to '90s rock bands, the Lilith Fair sound, and the teen pop takeover - 1990s music was rich with experimentation and style. Where else but in the MTV in your head can you find top artists like Nirvana, Wu-Tang Clan, No Doubt, A Tribe Called Quest, Oasis, Bikini Kill and Britney Spears in one place?

The Academy Awards are the highlight of the year of cinephiles. It's when the Academy honors those they see as the absolute best of the best. To even receive a nomination is a staggering accomplishment. Naturally, when the stakes are that high, and you're up on the stage accepting the award... you may not be thinking clearly. For those poor people it's traumatic, for viewers at home it's a moment to relive on YouTube forever.
Most of these weird oscar acceptance speeches had only the best intentions. Whether they decided to go too political; to express a deep, deep love for a family member; or to quote the movie for which they won, it surely all sounded good in their heads. These Oscar speech fails come from some of the best and brightest in the industry - after all, everyone has an off day.
These are the strangest, most cringeworthy, most awkward, and all-around worst Oscar speeches in Academy Awards history. Vote up the weirdest of the weird below!

Angelina Jolie
Year: 1999
Film: Girl, Interrupted
Award: Best Supporting Actress
Angelina Jolie brought her brother to the Academy Awards as her date. Cute right? Well... It would have been but she opened up her speech with, "I'm so in love with my brother right now." Not "I love my brother"; she's "IN LOVE" with her brother.
Cher
Year: 1988
Film: Moonstruck
Award: Best Lead Actress
According to this speech no one loves Cher as much as Cher does. She broadly thanks the whole crew, but then proceeds to thank those who made her look good, including her makeup guy who "had a lot to work with." She also thanks her fellow nominees because "she feels really really good, because they were so great."
George C. Scott
Year: 1971
Film: Patton
Award: Best Lead Actor
George C. Scott chose not to accept his award, not to make any political points, but as a stand against the Academy itself. Instead, the Academy had someone accept the award on his behalf and discuss... just how great the Academy is.
Jack Palance
Year: 1992
Film: City Slickers
Award: Best Supporting Actor
This is one of the weirdest speeches ever, but in a great way. Jack Palance was not a young man when he won in 1992. He was in his seventies at that point, and starts his speech off mentioning producers worrying about his health. He then proceeds to walk to the side of the stage and bust out one-armed push ups in a suit, then come back and make sex jokes about it. He was truly a man amongst men.
James Cameron
Year: 1998
Film: Titanic
Award: Best Director
James Cameron's speech opens with the same general thanks and fanfare. There's even a great joke about his parents being his "original producers." He's doing a decent, if slightly boring, job until the end, when he loudly and awkwardly announces he's the "KING OF THE WORLD!" then starts wooing and yelling but with weirdly dull eyes.
Marlon Brando
Year: 1973
Film: The Godfather
Award: Best Lead Actor
Marlon Brando was a near shoe-in for his incredible performance as Don Corleone in The Godfather. He used the opportunity to get an important message across and sent someone close to the cause in his stead: an Apache woman who spoke clearly, succinctly, and honestly about their cause.
Melissa Leo
Year: 2011
Film: The Fighter
Award: Best Supporting Actress
Leo managed to make interacting with Kirk Douglas, who presented the category, feel even stranger than it already was. Then she dropped an F-bomb and rambled for what felt like hours. To close, she went with some weird yelling about selling motion pictures. To top it all off she took Kirk Douglas's cane and acted like an old lady.
Shirley MacLaine
Year: 1984
Film: Terms of Endearment
Award: Best Lead Actress
Mix self love, a pinch of entitlement, and a dash of strange on stage spirituality. Shake for three minutes, and you have this crazy speech.
Roger Ross Williams
Year: 2009
Film: Music By Prudence
Award: Best Documentary Short Subject
Bet you didn't think Best Documentary Short would get a mention on this list, but it's not often someone gets full on Kanye'd at the Oscars! Director Roger Ross Williams was off to a great start, when he was joined on stage by his very own producer, Elinor Burkett (with whom he shared the award). Regardless of her status as a winner, there's no denying how strange it is to see the Oscar stage rushed and the winner interrupted. (Jump to the 4:00 mark for their category.)
Jane Fonda Can't Find the Words
Year: 1972
Film: Klute
Award: Best Actress
Jane Fonda is known for being vocal and a spitfire. So that this speech came from her is surprising. After a healthy round of applause, she graciously glances to the audience, gets out maybe three sentences and leaves.

This list features the best television neighbors of all time, answering the question "Who is the most memorable TV neighbor?" Featuring our favorite next-door friends like Kramer (Seinfeld) ,Barney Stinson (How I Met Your Mother), Ross Gellar (Friends) and Wilson Wilson (Home Improvement). Vote up your most-loved sitcom neighbor to determine the best TV neighbors of all time!
We've all watched a sitcom neighbor on the TV set and secretly wished we could live next door to them: they've been our best friends, mentors and, at times annoying jerks that we still can't seem to get enough of. Who didn't cringe every time Steve Urkel entered the set and opened his mouth, whining, "Did I do that?" Who didn't want to live in Mr. Roger's Neighborhood and listen to his stories? And who didn't fall in love with Winnie Cooper in The Wonder Years when she and Kevin Arnold shared their first kiss?
We've even had prolonged secret love affairs with our favorites because, let's face it: it's much easier to be involved in a relationship when someone lives a door away instead of in our own living rooms! And besides, most of our most-adored TV characters were perfect, never even having a bad hair day. So whether it was the girl-next-door that captured your heart or the handsome hunk that made you daydream, here's the list of America's greatest television neighbors. You decide if you'd want to live near them, or as far away as possible!
