24. Monica Lewinsky
Wed May 7, 2014, 05:41 PM
May 2014

Um, I really don't get her complaints. The only reason anyone ever found out about what she was doing was because she not only blabbed about it to her friends, she BRAGGED about it. One friend of hers at the time claimed that she referred to herself as "The President's cocksucker." She's the one who made it a story, one which blew up in her face. There's even an episode of Law & Order from the 90s which refers to someone having committed a "Lewinsky". Her father threatened to sue NBC but his anger was aimed in the wrong direction.
