2016年最没有礼貌的名人

BAD SPORTSMANSHIP

 

Recipient¹: President-elect Donald Trump² and Hilary Clinton (joint winners)

 

Well, at least Hilary has won something this year. I'm sure she's thrilled.

 

At the time of the third presidential debate in October both candidates churlishly refused to greet or bid farewell to the other in the custom of the handshake.

 

TERRIBLE TIMEKEEPING

 

Recipient: Their Royal Highnesses The Duke and Duchess of Cambridge (joint winners)

 

Despite the reported success of the Duke and Duchess of Cambridge's official visit to Canada back in September, timekeeping needs to be looked at for future trips.

 

There were multiple instances of the glamourous royalty³ keeping Canadians waiting, including the arrival, where the family took a whole 20 minutes to disembark in order to be greeted by the Canadian welcome party.

 

The Queen would have been down the stairs like a shot as soon as the aircraft came to a final halt.

 

They also arrived 40 minutes late for the official welcome and were running late to an event in Vancouver, too.

 

WORST GREETING

 

Recipient: Canadian Prime Minister Justin Trudeau

 

Full marks to Prince George for giving the patronising high-five of the Canadian prime minister the eye.

 

Who greets a member of any royal family, however young, with a high five?

 

BEST THROWING TOYS OUT OF PRAM⁴

 

Recipient: His Royal Highness Prince Harry⁵

 

Who can forget Prince Harry's unprecedented⁶ communique to the media a few months ago over the then speculation⁷ over his girlfriend Meghan Markle?

 

Whatever happened to ‘Never complain; never explain' – the unofficial motto of the House of Windsor?

 

The media are annoying, we get that, Your Royal Highness, but there may have been more dignified⁸ ways for you (and the establishment you represent) to air your concerns.

 

WORST HABIT

 

Recipient: Britney Spears

 

Britney, YOU drive me crazy for appearing on Loose Women smacking⁹ gum like it's 1998 as the panel interrogate¹⁰ you.

 

Have some respect for those who are promoting your work and hosting you to remove the gum before the interview begins.

 

Frankly¹¹, this sort of behaviour means you are very much still a girl and definitely not yet a woman.

 

WORST USE OF SOCIAL MEDIA

 

Recipient: Lindsay Lohan

 

Nothing tops the insensitivity and stupendous lack of awareness¹² as Lohan's insensitive post five months ago.

 

The actress posted on Instagram a seemingly heartfelt missive after the attacks in Nice and Turkey. But she paired it with a photo of her in some skimpy lingerie attempting to look seductive.

 

LEAST LADYLIKE

 

Recipient: Kim Kardashian

 

No Bad Manners Awards could be complete without a mention of a Kardashian, could it?

 

As the socialite arrived at Kylie Jenner's 19th birthday party in August she alighted her sports car in such a cack-handed (cack-legged, I suppose) way that meant that more was glimpsed than intended.

 

Kim, it's so simple and entry-level Finishing School stuff: keep knees and ankles together and swivel.
