What type of actor is C-list? Soap opera actors? If Mandy had not done Tangled, she would be on par with C list right now.

Sorry but Mandy is most certainly at C level even with Tangled, it kept her from being on the D list.. Jessica Simpson is B level..

I just started thinking about Mandy today and what she is doing.. I realize Xtina is on the voice, Jessica is on fashion star and Brit will do the x factor.. So Mandy popped into my mind like "Okay what reality show she got coming"???? .. Mandy has always gotten the short end of the stick when it came to Xtina, Brit and Jessica.. sucks because I think Mandy is a good singer and total sweetheart..

Well yeah I wouldn't argue that Mandy isn't C list although I would say she is C+ if the rationale is that soap opera actors are C-. But Jessica Simpson being B list? Are you serious? Just because you are a tabloid obsession does not mean you are considered prestigous in terms of your career. She only became famous because of a reality show and I consider reality show stars to be D listers. If they were famous for anything before that, maybe D+. But only teenyboppers knew who Jessica Simpson was before Newlyweds, that is truth.

Mandy has been in horrible romantic comedies but she still does movies that get released and she was a guest star in the cliffhanger of a critically acclaimed show.

And personally saying that Mandy got the short end of the stick? I don't necessarily agree. Many actors would love to have a movie like Tangled on their resume.

Not only that but many people still like the movie A Walk to Remember. Even though critics slaughtered it, it has resonated with general audiences and has aged well 10 years on.

Britney, Christina and Jessica will always be known for being sexed up pop stars. Jessica will be known as the airhead, Christina the slut and Britney the trainwreck.

D list actors are hardly ever talked about on a daily tabloid basis. Magazines still cover Jessica Simpson for a reason.. I hate to say it but she is still B level... well B- I guess . Jessica giving birth was on the news all day .that day.. If Mandy gave birth.. i'm sure there would be a small blurb in the paper and that's it. Hardly anyone knows she is a married woman and have been so for 2 years.. I can't argue that Jessica only blew up after newlyweds.. But when has Mandy ever had that moment in the sun??? She never truly became a big household name like Jessica, xtina and Brit..

and Tangeld, anyone could have done the voice and the movie still would be big.. people did not go to see Mandy.. I like her to blow up with an album or a movie where she is acting... but lets face it.. she tried and it only got so far.. which is why I feel she got the short end..

In popular usage outside the film industry, an "A-list celebrity" simply refers to any person with an admired or desirable social status.[4] In recent times, the term has given rise to any person, regardless of profession, in the limelight. Even socialites with popular press coverage have been termed as "A-list" celebrities. Similarly, less popular persons and current teen idols are referred to as "B-list."[5] The next ranking on the Ulmer Scale is a "C-list." An article on Entertainment Weekly describes a C-list celebrity as "that guy (or sometimes that girl), the easy-to-remember but hard-to-name character actor."[6]
"D-list" is the lowest rating on the Ulmer Scale[7], and it is often used to describe persons whose celebrity is so obscure that they are generally only known for appearances as so-called celebrities on panel game shows and reality television. The term is often exaggerated to successive letters of the alphabet for comic effect. Kathy Griffin, a comedian who became widely known for her frequent appearances on such programs, uses the term in a tongue-in-cheek manner for her TV series Kathy Griffin: My Life on the D-List. Some celebrities who begin their careers in this way eventually rise in fame to upper levels of the B-list or, depending on the definition, even the A-list; examples include the members of the Kardashian family and Paris Hilton.

From wikipedia.

Wow what a world we live in when someone like Kim Kardashian or Paris Hilton are considered A-listers because they bait the media, whilst talented but lesser known people get sidelined as lesser-lettered celebrities because they're not famewhores.

She's barely hanging on to B-list status at this point. I don't know if she just has bad taste or what, but she needs to stop doing these truly AWFUL romantic comedies.

yeah she's almost at C.
