In the spirit of the Fourth of July holiday, PopEater teamed up with The Insider to ask our audiences who their favorite American is and who they were shamed by. Over 163,000 votes were cast in our two polls. Thanks PopEater faithful!
As it turns out, Sandra Bullock really is America's sweetheart. With 63 percent of over 81,000 votes, Bullock walloped the competition. Oprah came in a distant second with 24 percent of votes.
On the other side, however, are the most embarrassing Americans. Heidi Montag and Spencer Pratt easily took that crown, garnering 37 percent of over 83,000 votes. The soon-to-be-exes triumphed over the philandering Tiger Woods, who had 33 percent and Jon Gosselin, the troubled father of 8, who placed third with 15 percent.

you have an IQ of two-digits. Go kill some more brain cells.
I hope you don't DRIVE to the movies after drinking those beers, Ryan. I suspect you do, though, judging from the intelligence of your post.
Couldn't care less about Sandra Bullock, so to hell with that poll. Really, nothing more than an average actress dumb enough to marry an obvious lowlife like James and this is people's portrait of some kind of ideal American. Further proof of how celebrity obssessed and generally shallow many in this society truly are.

What killed me was that lip-lock with another girl. Another Hollywood phony.
Celebrities are famous for there antics generaly and not for being standup heads above the rest people. I can see Oprah being on this list because she has funded many great causes and her story is one of hardship untill she made her mark.
As for all the rest of the celebrities that where mentioned
I see no reason to even concider them. My guess is that the poll provided a choice and was not a general question.

Sandra is loved by america for many reasons. One she is very pretty but not overwelming. Two she can act serious and funny and make it work. The people that work with here love the fact she take all the tension from the work area. Now the most great thing about Sandra is this ,she has a great heart. everytime there is a disaster in the world Sandra gives out a million dollars This is better than those who got the millions that sing a song and ask you to give but in the end no money from them

that joke America's favorite? Wow this country is filled with fools.

Sandra did more than marry (and stay five years with) a Nazi-loving dirtbag. Jesse is also a violence-loving, dog-fight-loving, homophobic, bully who has cheated on every woman in his life. If Sandra goes back to THAT, she's an idiot.

Sandra is divorcing her husband. Many women fall in love with one man and end up with another. This does not make the woman a liar or an idiot, just the lump she's married to.
Sandra Bull is right. It fit's America perfectly. A lying, smiling pretty white face with a Nazi thug in her bed. Ohhhh I didn't know he was like that? how did you not know about this guy you have been married to for how many years? Yes perfectly American. Racist sideshow that we can't admit and then we try to act like it's not our fault when the truth is exposed. Perfect American metaphor.

Keeping in mind who they polled for this article (it won’t be the Rhodes Scholar recipients) it simply reflects how really vacuous many in the country are. Bullock is a nut case and given her involvement with James both during his previous marriage and then afterward, subsequently marrying him. Not the sharpest tool in the shed or the best American
