Found this interesting so what the heck are there others?

Alec Baldwin

"30 Rock" funnyman Alec Baldwin found himself in hot water with the Philippines in 2009 after he made a joke about sex trafficking in the country. "By being on the bureau's blacklist, Baldwin is forbidden from entering the country as he is deemed an undesirable alien," a representative for the country's Bureau of Immigration said in a statement.

Gary Glitter

After being released from a Vietnamese prison for committing obscene acts with minors, 1970s glam rocker Gary Glitter was banned from entering a total of 19 countries, including Cuba, Cambodia and the Philippines. He currently resides in the United Kingdom, where he was placed on the Sex Offenders Register for life.

Filipinos can be bit touchy, and with a law on books where you can get banned for offending any Filipino, its as wonder a lot more people aren't banned. But even though they may over react to a joke by some celebrity, I've watched Filipinos put up with some pretty abusive jerk tourist's antics. I guess its ok generally to be a jerk, but don't insult the Philippines, even if what you're saying is true. Wasn't too long ago an expat living in Cebu put uo a video knocking some things that reakky could be done better. They were ready to boot him from the country until he posted an apology.

hypocrit - a person who feigns some desirable or publicly approved attitude, especially one whose private life, opinions, or statements belie his or her public statements.

Pet Peeve for 2011 - supercilious, contemptuous, arrogant, attitudes.
