Terrible celebrity endorsements: What Lara Bingle, Snoop Dogg and Mr T have in common

From Z-grade "celebrities" like our very own Lara Bingle, to multimillion dollar stars like Snoop Dogg, it seems some celebrities have no shame -- as long as they get paid.

Nicole Ritchie and T-Mobile's Sidekick



Famous because she's the daughter of Lionel Ritchie (oh, and one of Paris' best pals, apparently) Nicole Ritchie doesn't seem the greatest choice as an ambassador for the T-Mobile Sidekick, launched as the Telstra hiptop slide in Australia. The Sidekick was an extremely popular smartphone in the US for teenagers and people in their early 20s, but could they afford the ridiculous, hideous diamond encrusted case Ritchie is carrying in this picture? And why would teenagers want to grow up idolising a Hollywood brat anyway? Perhaps T-Mobile should find Nicole a day job, and a few extra kilograms.
