Welcome to the 2009 PopSugar 100! It is our third year making the list, and this time we decided to spice things up by having readers vote on a playoff format bracket to narrow down the list from 128 finalists all the way to number one. Our bracket matched up everyone from Heidi Montag vs. Angelina Jolie to Robert Pattinson vs. Jennifer Aniston. More than 20 million votes were calculated to make the 2009 PopSugar 100 truly unique in showcasing just who had the biggest year in Hollywood — as it turns out, no one is immune to Twilight fever! Robert Pattinson makes his debut at number one on the list — check out the full 100 here!
You can also sort it by number of fans, who is most commented, and what the list looks like using our Pop Factor!
To see the top five, some of fun facts, and the biggest movers and shakers of the list, just read more.

I was hoping Johnny would be #1. Oh well
1I'm just glad Reese Witherspoon didn't win. It should've been Kate Winslet, though.
I guess Robert Pattinson had a great year. Who knew about him this time last year (other than the Harry Potter fans and I saw him in the Bad Mother's Handbook a few years ago). So congratulations to him.
2hoping kate would be number 1 too cos it was truly her year but reese??
3but love rob still
I'm not crazy about anyone in the top three.
4gross
5I was hoping Reese would get it, but Robert is fun to look at, so I am still happy.
6It means more pictures of Robert Pattinson in plastered in every pages of PopSugar.
7Robert Pattinson # 1? Geez, I didn't see that coming...
8I don't like ANY of the people in this top list! Ick.
And why the eff was Robert Pattinson #1? Twilight isn't THAT awesome [sorry, fans]. I'd rather have Reese at the top spot. Though, looking at the top 5...where's the diversity???
9of course he is, its popsugar, and its own list is irrelevant outside of its walls.
lets not waste our time in the future on this nonsense.
10Wow, does he get like a movie deal or something? Haahaa....the top five all look like Justin Timberlake. I smell trout!
11boooooooooo
12i'm PSYCHED that my boy is #1. as much as i love and adore reese - he really is the best for right now!
13ugh, seriously, what were people thinking?
14woo hoo yay for Robert!!!
15so disappointing... i mean, i don't dislike Robert or anything, but №1? seriously? c'mon!.
never could understand this massive obsession with the whole "twilight" franchise...
16I am not too crazy about Pattison but I love Reese and Jen. I am glad they took second and third place however, Kate Winslet clearly had a bigger year. I would've put her (Kate) in the #2 spot and then Reese and Jen.
17happy for reese though. in my personal list she stands so much higher than Rob..
18boooooooooooooooooooooooooooo
19
20Who cares? I was not into this whole voting thing. Most of these people are pretty shallow.
21Awesome!!! Yay Rob. What I really wanna know is who get the Chanel bag??? Technically Angelina would have been number 1 again because she generated the most comments so I am satisfied. Soo wh gets the bag???
22It's cool that Rob win
he deserves it. And for me it's not about Twilight. It's
about him.
23Robert Patterson? Seriously? What an absolute joke.
24Yaaaaaaaaaaaaaay!
25Yay! Rob gets #1 he's always been #1 in my eyes! Sorry but well deserved!
26I like Twilight but I don't like him. Sorry, but he just does not do it for me.
27Jennifer Anniston just bores me.
28this is ridiculous. did 13 year old girls do all the voting? seriously this guy is so overrated.
29My vote was for Johnny Depp but I figured Rob would win. no one is hotter than he is right now. Just a little too young for me IMO
30Well the guy is definitely interesting but I think that there's been just too much hype about him. I mean, come on, yes he is hot, yes he is funny but No. 1? Really? After he played in *Twilight*? The *Twilight*?
Way too overrated.
31yay rob!
32Glad Rob was number one. I knew he would be, he was always either 1st or 2nd
33Agree with Margo. I used to love Twilight and Rob, but now I am so sick of it all. Honestly, if it were up to me, no Twilight person would be in the top 100.
34What is the world coming too? It's sad when a fad actor can win something like this over someone like Kate Winslet who has worked her butt off to get where she is.
35
36Kate winslet should be #1..then jen and Rob..
37Well the good thing is that we wont see anymore popsugar 100 posts for at least a year.
38no suprise there, but I love Robert Pattinson!
39yay for robert!!!!!!
40Wow, never saw that one coming.
41I don't understand how any of these celebs made the list personally....oh well.
42Agree with "Love Angelina" - who won the Chanel bag??
43...but who won the bag?!
44ummm>>> i guess he should be no. 1 even tho i dont like him one bit>>>a lot of little girls love him>>>but reese?!?!who even thinks abt her anymore
45Surprise, surprise. BTW Johnny is the coolest guy ever.
46I'm become jaded to all things Twilight, and have particularly wearied of seeing Robert's fug mug. Make it stop!
47
48wooooww..congrats rob!!! you truly deserve it!!! you are more than awesome!!!
49I'm pretty sure that if you held a real voting competition in popularity, there would be a lot of shifts. This convoluted popsugar system often forced people to pick the lesser of two they disliked, or vote against someone they did like, because of odd pairings. I found the whole process and results dubious.
