Tussauds: Model Jordan Most Pointless Celebrity
Thu January 8, 2004 12:48 PM ET

LONDON (Reuters) - Forget her obvious assets. Curvaceous model Jordan has been picked as the most pointless celebrity in Britain by visitors to Madame Tussauds.

In the annual poll conducted at the waxworks museum, she won the dubious honor in a close run contest with reality TV favorite and British "Big Brother" finalist Jade Goody.

Third place was taken by pop wild child Britney Spears.

"Judging by the results of our poll, I don't think we will be creating models of either Jordan or Jade," said a Tussauds spokeswoman. "But Jordan does have two good points."

After his World Cup-winning kick, rugby star Jonny Wilkinson toppled England soccer captain David Beckham to be picked as Most Popular Sports Personality.

Beckham also failed to defend his top spot as Most Fancied Man. The winner was Brad Pitt with "Gorgeous George" Clooney at No. 2.

George Bush was picked as The Most Feared Person, followed by Tony Blair. Osama bin Laden, the world's most wanted man, could manage only third.

The poll was conducted in November and December with up to 1,200 British visitors queuing to get into Madame Tussauds.
