We're very, very close to the end of 2010 and the beginning of 2011, so without further ado, I present to you for the 20th time...
The Top 20 Things That Were Trending in 2010

20. Brett Favre (imagine if those cell phone pics of "Lil' Brett" were sent to Erin Andrews instead)

19. Simon Cowell leaving "American Idol" (to quote Will Ferrell's Alex Trebek, the show has reached a new low)

18, and in her 12th consecutive appearance because we still love her so much. Britney Spears (let's move on)

17. Tiger Woods (as somebody tweeted earlier this year, the Masters promos would've been more enjoyable if Jim Nantz narrates those text messages)

16. Ke$ha (her hits this year: money in the bank!)

15. 3D televisions on the market (Bring on laserdisc! Oh, wait...)

14. Miley Cyrus and Selena Gomez (now that they're both 18, you can no longer feel guilty to pleasure yourself to them...that, or to the sight of Miley taking a hit)

13. Cheryl Cole (who may join Cat Deeley next year when she act to the States when our version of X Factor comes our way)

12. Lebron James's decision to join the Miami Heat (which should've been called "Cold In Cleveland")

11. More celebrities on Facebook (I'm trying to find out which ones are good at Farmville)

10. The Discovery Channel gunman standoff (apparently his demand is that Shark Week becomes Shark Month)

9. The iPad (imagine the Flintstones having loads of fun with that tablet)

8. Sandra Bullock, Christina Milian, and Christina Aguilera (all of them single MILFs and loving it!)

7. Lady Gaga (her "Little Monsters" have made her the queen of Twitter)

6. TIE: The BP oil spill and the Iceland volcano (one was tough to clean up, the other was tough to pronounce its name)

5. Betty White (still the object of male fantasies after so many decades...that is, if you're 80 to 100!)

4. Backstreet Boys and New Kids On The Block about to tour together (let's get ready to party like it's both 1989 and 1999!)

3. Wild weather across America (117 degrees in Los Angeles, an ice storm here in Alaska, and a post-Christmas blizzard on the East Coast...I feel like moving to Hawaii!)

2. TIE: Sarah Palin and Wikileaks (one was the darling of the Tea Party movement and had a daughter on a hit show, the other was not a darling of governments everywhere)

And the #1 thing that was trending in 2010 and will continue to be in 2011...

1. Justin Bieber (like him or not, you can be sure that even with his rumored romance with Selena Gomez, we'll be hearing much more from him next year than this year!)

With that, that's the AllenBlog's 2010 Year In Review. So long, stay strong, and HAPPY NEW YEAR!!!!
