Miley Cyrus, Kanye West Voted Worst Celebrity Influence

January 31, 2011
Miley Cyrus, Kanye West Voted Worst Celebrity InfluenceKanye West has been voted one of the worst living celebrity influences, it's been announced.

Miley Cyrus topped the poll, conducted by AOL's Just So You Know, for a second year with 58% of the vote.

The website targets one of teen star Cyrus's core audiences, 9-15 year olds.

In December, Cyrus, who made her name in Disney's Hannah Montana, was at the centre of a tabloid scandal when footage of her smoking a bong emerged online.

West came second in the poll, while Britney Spears was third, reports the New York Daily News.

Other celebrities who made the list included Amber Portwood, Chace Crawford, Lindsay Lohan and Demi Lovato.
