Tattle: Who's most annoying? Kim K.

Emma Watson : Tops"Potter" poll.

ASKING WHO'S the most annoying celebrity is like asking who needs to lose the most weight on "The Biggest Loser" - almost any answer works and all of them are correct.

But Parade magazine and Yahoo!'s omg! needed something to do, so they teamed up for a pop-culture poll.

With regard to the celebrity who most gets under people's skin, Kim Kardashian won with 29 percent of the vote, just beating Charlie Sheen, who had 27 percent. He was, however, probably happy to be beaten by Kim.

Snooki came in third at 21 percent, a pitiful showing for someone so annoying. Lindsay Lohan, who's barely a celebrity these days, finished fourth with 16 percent, Donald Trump was fifth with 5 percent - about what he would have polled had he run for president - and "Bachelor" Brad Womack finished sixth with 1 percent.

But at least he got a rose.

"Most Likely to Succeed from Harry Potter" was Emma Watson with a robust 79 percent of the vote. With only 2 percent, Rupert Grint should start brushing up on his barista skills.

"Hottest Summer Tune" was Adele's "Rolling in the Deep." Not to be picky, omg!, but that wasn't even a summer tune.

Giving good insight into who girls think the hot boys are at the moment, polled as to who would be the best suitor for Pippa Middleton, voters said she would best be wooed by Ryan Reynolds (22 percent), Jake Gyllenhaal and Leonardo DiCaprio (18 percent each), Ryan Gosling (17 percent), James Franco (13 percent) and Robert Pattinson (12 percent).

Sure, all six of those guys seem like dependable boyfriend material.

"Coolest Couple"? Will Smith and Jada Pinkett Smith finished first with 27 percent, even if they are currently struggling as a couple; Jennifer Garner and Ben Affleck (26 percent) seem like an excellent pair but hardly "coolest" material; Prince William and Kate Middleton (20 percent) were third; Angelina Jolie and Brad Pitt (a measly 11 percent) were fourth; Beyonce and Jay-Z (10 percent) fifth and Penelope Cruz and Javier Bardem (6 percent) sixth. If Jennifer Aniston and Justin Theroux couldn't beat out Cruz and Bardem, why are the gossips mags obsessed by their every move?

* Speaking of annoying celebrities, Zap2it.com says that Kat Von D and Jesse James have split . . . again.

"I am not in a relationship," Kat wrote on her Facebook page Friday. "And I apologize for all the 'back and forth' if it's caused any confusion."

* Taylor Lautner is not in our consciousness enough to be truly annoying, but he seems to be well on his way to mastering the faux-romance publicity game.

Just in time for the release of his new movie, "Abduction," Us Weekly reports he has broken up with his co-star, Lily Collins.

"It was a clean break that Taylor initiated," an unnamed source says, adding that the split actually occurred one week before "Abduction's" red-carpet premiere and after-party in L.A. on Sept. 15.

"At the 'Abduction' party, it was awkward," the source admits. "They barely said a word to one another."

Previously, Lautner celeb-dated Taylor Swift, his 'Valentine's Day' co-star.

Now he "wants to be single for a while." Or at least until he needs publicity.
