The Rules to Creating a Top 5: Celebrity Edition
My buddy Sasso (used to be called Ron) and I were hanging out, shooting the shit and whatnot, when the conversation turned to Top 5 lists. In our ‘High Fidelity’ moment, we started talking about our top 5 celebrities and he started his off with Kate Upton. I immediately stopped him and had to go over the rules of the top 5 which vary according to whatever the content of the list may be. (For example, there’s a HUGE difference between someone’s Top 5 favorite movies and their Top 5 best movies ever. The first list should consist of movies you can watch all the time whenever you want with no hesitation. The second would solely be based on quality and impact).
In regards to celebrities, it’s more of why you have a thing for rather than who is obviously the hottest. If that weren’t the case, everyone’s list would consist of Angelina Jolie, Jennifer Aniston, etc. Kate Upton is the epitome of a smokeshow. I don’t think there’s a guy with male genitalia in the world who wouldn’t want to dabble with those village feeders. Since she’s all over the place right now, I gave him that. However, I made it clear that his list should be far from generic and each pick justified. Without further ado, here are the rules that one should abide by when making their top 5 celebrity list:
- No specific order is necessary
- Justifications are yours and yours alone. Don’t change your list because someone flips a shit about a certain person on it.
- Age is just a number (This one goes out to my buddy Chaz Bono who loves Dakota Fanning)
- Lastly, and probably the most important rule is The Kirsten Dunst Rule. Don’t choose someone because of a specific year, movie, photo shoot etc.
