Food Network, talk show TV chef Rachael Ray is said to be devorcing her husband John Cusimo.
High on the list of “rachael ray” searches, we’re seeing “rachael ray divorce john cusimano,” “rachael ray divorced,” “rachael ray getting divorced,” and “rachael ray divorce rumors.” Both men and women from ages 35-44 are concerned, but the men happen to be a smidge more interested.
Ray responded to the rumors about the state of her marriage with John Cusimano in July and again in November, but the speculation won’t go away.
What are the common words that vex our searchers? We applied our best spell checking skills to the data and came up with this list of the top 20 misspelled words in Search…
Everyone has certain words they struggle to spell correctly. Mine happens to be (unfortunitley) doh When it comes to spelling, we’re not perfect—you can count on us to occasionally botch recieve (sic), thier (sic), and relavant (sic).
The superb spellers at the Bee (Scripps National Spelling Bee) will rake in even more What’s Hot Today this year with the finals being televised in prime time on ABC. Searches on “spelling bee” have doubled over the last week and we’ve seen related search spikes on “national spelling bee,” “spelling words,” and “commonly misspelled words.”
Perhaps the whole sex video-as-path-to-stardom thing isn’t so bad after all. Well, there is the whole losing-of-dignity issue, but who needs dignity when you can reap publicity? Searches on socialite Kim Kardashian soared in February when a purloined sex tape made the rounds online and on DVD.
At the time, we figured she’d slip her lacy undergarments back on and slink off into obscurity. However, Kardashian has displayed startling staying power in Search thanks in part to gossip blogs. The wags of the Web have been fueled by the story of the fame-hungry gal and her flings.
Thanks to her infamy, the brunette stunner has set up shop in our top 2,000 search terms and her latest beau caused Buzz to boil over. Rumors of a relationship with Saints star running back Reggie Bush caused a 139% increase in Kardashian searches. Of course, related searches on Kim “pictures,” “video,” and “nude” all jumped in the wake of this tantalizing tidbit.
What’s next for Kim? Blue skies and puppy dogs. Vivid Video reached a settlement with her and will stop distributing her sex tape at the end of May. And with the elusive Bush by her side, she’s ready to break out big in What’s Hot Today yet again.
