Kids put Britney and Paris at top of Santa's naughty list

Categories: Development, Media

With Santa up north working on his naughty and nice list, American kids have been asked for their input. In an online poll conducted by E-Poll Market Research, 1,107 kids ages 2 to 17 were asked to define 'naughty' and 'nice' and help Santa figure which celebrity goes on which list.

First, the naughty list. The kids surveyed defined naughty as "not listening to parents," "being mean & bullying" and "being snobby." And just who did they think should make Santa's naughty list? As bad as they are, Swiper the Fox and the Grinch are were not chosen as the naughtiest celebrities. That honor went to none other than Britney Spears, followed closely by Paris Hilton.

For the nice list, children aged 2 to 12 deemed Hannah Montana as the nicest celebrity, with older kids putting Angelina Jolie at the top.

When asked what they think naughty children should receive from Santa, the kids were most charitable. Rather than a lump of coal, they feel that naughty kids should get at least one gift and "get another chance to do good for next year." And what gift would these children most like to give other kids? "hugs," "kisses" and "love." Awww.
