2. Perez Hilton
Perez Hilton, whose real name is Mario Lavandeira, is a blogger who is known for getting the dirt on celebrities. He is likely the most popular web-based celebrity, mainly for giving his unsolicited opinions on stars and using irreverent (and slightly immature) humor to bring more attention to his blog. More than 7 million people visit Perez Hilton’s blog every month, making his website one of the 500 most-visited sites on the Internet. Hilton also has millions of Twitter followers, which helps him spread the news of his latest celebrity gossip even faster. Perez Hilton has also used his fame to bring more attention to social issues such as same sex marriage, and made the news himself when he lost a considerable amount of weight. He is currently worth about $30 million.
