One must look lower: It's the shoes. Paul is THE most irritating pop star because of his choice of footwear. We all know that footwear is key.




Touche. You'd think looking lower would come naturally to an old political guy like me, too. But what do you suppose Craig Dawson would have made of Paul's feet on the cover of Abbey Road?

   This is gonna sound really bad but I think McCartney has gotten a bit annoying recently. I dont mean to offend any one who disagrees, it is just my opinion.

Paul has been in the media for so long that maybe that's why he was voted? I mean sometimes the media just over does things especially when it comes to celebrities.  They would announce everytime one goes to the pooper if they could.  So, maybe it's not that Paul is irritating, it's more like the media is just announcing every little thing that he does, and since hes ben around for so many years, the people are just getting irritated and bothered about hearing about it?

The only thing more annoying than trainers with a suit is bare feet. Gad, how annoying!!!! *votes for Paul again*

brain dead_genius, you can't be alone in your opinion if Paul won this contest-- and won it over stiff competition, too. I mean, come on, Britney  Spears didn't even place. There has been a serious miscarriage of justice somewhere if Ms. Spears didn't even make it to the finalists.

No, the bare feet was a "clue" so you can't count that against him, hh.

maybe its that he's just had his heart broken and also lost a small amount of his fortune to heather mills and the public all sympathized with him, then they see him with another young woman just after the settlement.

There probably like "when will he ever learn " and maybe slightly irritated by it ?

Ooh, I like your theory, Fendertele.

Of course, my opinion is worthless, as I can't even tell a valid source of annoyance from an important clue!

My guess is that people are just sick of hearing about Paul's divorce and Heather's carrying on.

I think Paul keeping a respectful silence about his divorce as got up the media's nose , their irritated he has'nt dished the dirt to the press re Heather . To use the phrase "Holier than thou " is media code for " Give us dirt "

It's lazy celebrity journalism that pleases bored writers and readers, but it'll be forgotten as soon as the crowd moves on to the next big rage of the moment. In the long run of Paul's career, I think the whole Heather business will be relegated to the status of minor post-Linda embarrassment. By that I mean I can imagine biographers taking a lot of interest in Jane and Linda, but not so much in Heather.

Oh, how disgusting! That last thing I want to hear is two people moaning about each other. We all have better things to do.

but on the bright side bad publicity is still publicity, and probs worked out in favor for his album sales as before the whole divorce thing with heather he wasn't in the papers or public eye for a good while, so maybe it brought him to attention of a lot of youngsters.

Perhaps but... can youngsters relate to divorce? Isn't that an icky thing old people do?

Still, you're probably right. It's hard to see publicity is bad, if you rely on an audience to purchase your work.
