“Hey hey, you you!” Did you hear that we released our 2017 Most Dangerous Celebrities List? This year marks the release of our 11th annual roundup of the Most Dangerous Celebrities—that is, the stars that are most likely to land you viruses when searched for online.

Can you guess who took this year’s number one spot? Singer-songwriter Avril Lavigne! Our annual study showed that 14.51% of searches for this starlet’s name led everyday users to malicious websites. So much for her “Happy Ending!”
