10. Melissa McCarthy
Okay, first off, all power to a fully-curved female making big bucks in an industry obsessed with physical perfection. Good for her. On the other hand, McCarthy’s shtick is getting old in a hurry. How many times can you do the same joke? Her big break came in 2011’s Bridesmaids, when she relieved herself in a bathroom sink. Hilarious? Perhaps. Since then she’s done a series of poor films whose scripts were probably lying around for years. They may have even been old Chris Farley projects that just switched genders to meet her demand. So it’s a girl doing the jokes instead of a guy, big deal.
