Blaine named biggest loser
31dec03
THIS is no illusion: David Blaine has been voted the biggest loser of 2003, reports Ananova.com.
One in four Britons ranked the American illusionist as the top flop of the last 12 months for his 44-day starvation stunt in a poll of 1,000 people conducted for McCain Foods.
Blaine ranked higher than Iain Duncan Smith, Eurovision duo Jemini and the entire Australian nation as failures of 2003.
Victoria Beckham was voted the fifth biggest loser for her struggle to make it big in America despite the help of her new best friend, record mogul Damon Dash.
Jemini's spectacular zero points in the Eurovision Song Contest won them 13 percent of the vote in the survey of underachievers.
