Default Most Overrated Yanks

1) Oprah Winfrey (tempted to put her for all 5 - after an all expensives, possibly baksheeshed trip around Oz) .She is now the great hope for selling Aussie tourism to yanks despite the fact it's cheaper for them to book a month in a 7* Martinique penthouse inclusive of daily 'head'.

2) Kate Perry - 'musician' (!!) reponsible for yelling out some of the crappest pop songs ever recorded, marrying Russell Brand and producing some embarassingly lewd vids to sicken you even further

3) Barack Obama - disappointment of legendary proportions after some punchy rhetoric. Apparently 75% of yanks think he is a muslim and his real name is Barak O Bomber

4) Sarah Jessica Parker - equine actress symbolising the bimbo-esque Sex in the City series

5) Any scientologist - get a grip , or maybe committed Scientologiste Priscilla Presley for that non surgical skin care face lift claptrap, when it's pretty clear she's had a couple of cranes working on those crows feet.

Is that in the traditional sense of the word, or as in the phrase "Queensland the Smart State"??

He's not American. He was born just north of Toronto and lived in my hometown where he went to my local high school.
