Here is Barbara Walters' 2012 list. Ben Affleck (actor and director) Honey Boo Boo (reality show star) Chris Christie (New Jersey Governor) Hillary Rodham Clinton (Secretary of State) Gabrielle Douglas (Olympic gold medal gymnast) E.L. James (author of Fifty Shades of Grey) Seth MacFarlane (actor) One Direction (band) Prince Harry of Wales (prince) David Petraeus (US Army general) - Most Fascinating Person of 2012. Honey Boo Boo made the list. How about that. According to Walters: "A lot of people will say, 'For heaven's sake, this is ridiculous, this is a child at 5 or 6 years old entering beauty contests.' But the relationship between Alana and her mother... that's the story, the two of them." She gushed, "It's very touching." "Honey Boo Boo is not an obnoxious little girl. She's sweet and loving with her mother and loving with her sisters [Jessica, Lauryn and Anna]," Barbara continued. "And now Anna has a new baby, and the baby has [three] thumbs... but so what? It'll make you smile." http://www.q929fm.com/Barbara-Walters-Picks-Honey-Boo-Boo-for-Most-Fasci/14951888 Interesting that someone like Barbara Walters considers an ordinary little girl to be more fascinating than, say, the presidential candidates. Only in America?
