TMZ Drinks the "Shawn Johnson" Haterade

46. I love TOPO, he is sweet and adorable..."give me a kiss". I would take it as a compliment

47. Clearly, most of you don't have any idea who Topo Gigio was. He was an adorable MOUSE from the Ed Sullivan Show. I adored that little guy, and thought he was as cute as a button...just like Shawn.

48. I could see the comparison, juckled a bit. However, I don't think tmz should have gone there...she's adorable.

49. Too bad y'all weren't around in the days of Ugly Korbutt and Mary Lou Ratton.

50. You know what the Shawn Johnson comparison photo was? A sure sign that pretty soon everyone at TMZ will become unemployed. Now that Britney is fixing her behavior they are starving for stories. Good luck with your pathetic careers. You might actually have to go to college and earn a degree.

With the way local law enforcement officials are cracking down on the lame ass paparazzo wanna be's it won't last much longer. better get your resumes up on craigslist you might actually have to find a job where you can't make fun of everyone in the world..but everyone will be making fun of you. :)

I never thought I'd say it..but for once you make Perezhilton.com look classy.

51. They really crossed the line when they showed Scott Kullita burning to death in his car. I somehow smell the end of TMZ!

53. I agree... I think she deserves a public and private apology from you guys.

54. That is so mean!!! She is so cute and an example to ALL girls. She won a gold medal and she gets this crap from you guys? what the hell? She didn't do anything wrong! Oh and take that article down, and APOLOGIZE don't just write about the emails you've been getting. Idiots.

55. Also,

TMZ has NOT taken the post down.

They're just adding this latest article to add fuel to the fire, and thumb their noses at us.

56. So you are blaming an email from a viewer for starting this! You do everything readers tell you to do?????! Your site is becoming more and more like perezhilton's every day! You're nothing but a trashy tabloid site! When are you going to start being a respectable site and stop making fun of people! There's not one of you at TMZ that has any room to talk about someone else's looks! Grow up TMZ!!!! This one the lowest you've ever stooped. You've lost a lot of respect from a lot of viewers over this one. Can any of you who put this rag site together say that you've accomplished anything spectacular in your life such as winning a medal at the Olympics? Of course not - you're too busy making fun of people for kicks. This is my last time on your site.

57. I don't know what the big deal is either. you weren't putting her down for being a slut like Miley or a drug addict like Lindsey. It just so happens that she kinda looks like that rat. damn people need to calm down. Its like the line from South Park, I believe it was the Cartoon Wars episode, "Either its all ok to make fun of, or none of it is ok to make fun of" Ya'll can't pick and choose what is ok and not ok to make fun of. Either its ALL ok, or NONE of it is ok.

Keep it up TMZ!

58. I think it is a valid comparison. She does look like Topo Gigio. Who cares if she's in the olympics? If she wasn't, no one would care about her one way or the other. It could have been worse. I would have said Mon Chi Chi.

59. OMG WUT WAS THE BIG DEAL? THEY ARE JUST BEING FUNNY. I THOUGHT THAT THE COMPARISON WAS PREETY HILARIOUS. THE GIRL IS CUTE ANYWAYS I DONT THINK SHE IS GOING TO NEED ANY THERAPY B/C SHE SAW HER PIC ON TMZ BEING COMPARED TO A RAT SHE PROBABLY LAUGHED HERSELF. IS NOT LIKE TMZ IS MAKING FUN OF SOMEONE WITH A DISABILITY. PEOPLE NEED TO RELAX!

60. I personally found the comparison funny but then again I'm not look for a "cause" to make myself feel important. She also has a little bit of strawberry shortcake in her, ior baby new years.
