Michael Jackson tops Maxim’s top 10 Worst Dads list.
The pop superstar landed the number one spot on Maxim.com’s cruel new poll even ahead of U.S. murderer Scott Peterson, who killed his wife and unborn baby.
In naming Jackson the Worst Dad, Maxim editors write:
”Dangling a baby out of a Berlin hotel window! We’re not sure what’s crazier: Michael’s unique approach to parenting, or the fact that a woman was willing to carry the children of a twice-alleged child molester.”
Continue reading below to check out the full top ten list.
1. Michael Jackson
2. Scott Peterson
Worst moment: Murdering his wife and unborn son
Parenting is a tough job, but this guy didn´t even give it a try. We remember weekends at the beach with our dads going differently.
3. Marvin Gaye Sr.
Worst moment: Shooting his son to death
No man wants to be outlived by his offspring, and the crossdressing reverend was only obliging threats of suicide by his troubled son, Motown immortal Marvin Gaye, when he regifted the gun Junior bought him for his own protection and fired it into his chest.
4. Joe Simpson
Worst moment: Creepily talking about Jessica´s breasts
We´re pretty sure that everyone with at least one functioning eye knows Jessica Simpson cuts an imposing physique, but things just got weird when her dad started publicly commenting on her glad bags. Call us old fashioned, but dads shouldn´t say, “You can´t cover those suckers up,” even if it´s true.
5. Kurt Cobain
Worst moment: Shooting his daughter´s inheritance in the face
He not only abandoned little Frances Bean when he took his life in 1994, he left Courtney Love as her sole caretaker. Which is not unlike playing airplane with your baby´s stewed carrots at feeding time, only, after you finish waving the spoon in front of her face, you inject her with heroin.
6. Michael Lohan
Worst moment: Lindsay´s self-destructive behavior/multiple rehab trips.
During Lindsay´s crucial preteen years, Michael was in prison for securities fraud, and returned in 2005 for driving without a license, with a blood-alcohol level nearly twice the legal limit. If she can avoid the seductions of securities fraud, Lindsay should be just fine.
7. Father Oliver O´Grady
Worst moment: Abusing an estimated 25 children
We know he´s not technically a father, but this subject of the documentary Deliver Us From Evil represents a long line of Catholic priests that came before him (and on kids).
8. Ozzy Osbourne
Worst moment: Jack and Kelly go to rehab
Apparently, having once taken acid every day for a year compromises your “don´t do drugs” credibility.
9. Rick Hilton
Worst moment: Paris goes to prison
His daughter has brandished her baby-maker to the world, been sent to jail, and appeared in her very own porno. And through all of her escapades Rick has been…um, Rick? Anyone seen Rick?
10. David Hasselhoff
Worst moment: Grazing pie-eyed on a Wendy´s combo while being filmed by his 16-year-old daughter. The Hoff caught hell for drunkenly hurling expletives at his teen seed, but what about his unwillingness to share that cheeseburger? Won´t someone think of the starving children?

I’m sick and tired of I’m-so-holier-than-thou Americans who thinks they’re in the position of judgin the position of judging Mother Mary! The truth is you can’t judge him on the incident of danof dangling his baby boy out the window makes him the worst father ever! He takes better care of his children than most parents do-they’re home schooled, smarter than their peers, well-traveled, polite and well conversed than what is passing in American public schools today! P.S. MJ: Don’t ever let your children go to the public schools here!

there are other parents out there who do worse to their kids!!!!!!!!!!! even though u arent a god of pop, doesnt mean to bring him down like that! if he was so bad, why does he always want to help the world? hes a very sensitive man. give him a break. He had a bad homelife!! all of the media and EVERYTHING picks on him. why? cause u guys just want something on the news cause u have nothing better to do. YOU help the situation of him getting all these surgeries!! Michael LOVES the fame, and with everyone critisizing him, and making fun of him, what kind of self asteem do u THINK he’d have?? If u were him, you would think a lot different. i say no one should stereo-type. sure, he may not look normal, but did u ever ask ur self why?? besides saying “oh he’s just wako?” i didn’t think so. think about that next time.
