1. Miss Cleo
This commercial queen was renowned for her psychic abilities. Too bad Cleo couldn’t predict the many lawsuits she and the Psychic Friends Network would face.
2. Mike Tyson
There was no doubt about Iron Mike’s super-human strength during his reign as the undisputed heavyweight champion of the world, but he took it to a whole ‘nother level when he infamously chomped a chunk out of Evander Holyfield’s ear in ’97.
3. Jennifer Aniston
The fabulous woman behind “The Rachel,” a hairstyle so seductive it literally pulled you in. Thousands of women worldwide copied the look, hoping that they too could snag a hunk like Brad Pitt.
4. Alex Trebek
This walking encyclopedia had all the right answers (or all the right cue-cards). Either way, the game show geek could go head to head with a Brainiac on the Daily Double and still come out on top.
5. Jerry Springer
Call it manipulation, exploitation or the superhuman power of persuasion, this daytime talk devil had a way of getting folks to come on national TV to make total asses of themselves. Thank goodness he had his trusty sidekick (and bodyguard) Steve to reel in the guests when they went off the deep end.
6. Mary Jo Buttafuoco
Granted, she wasn’t exactly faster than that speeding bullet — but all things considered, I think it’s safe to say that any gal who gets shot in the face and lives to tell the tale is up there at Superwoman status.
7. Forrest Gump
OK, so, he’s a fictional character…but still, Tom Hanks’ classic character would have given The Flash a run for his money (pun intended). He may not have that same super speed, but he makes up for it with his super-human endurance.
8. Gallagher
Who needs the hammer of Thor when you’ve got the hammer of Gallagher? He’s an obvious choice when it comes to defending the Earth against the evils of watermelon — although if we’re talkin’ about real bad guy stuff, he’s gonna need some serious back up.
9. Monica Lewinsky
Sure, this femme fatale didn’t actually kill anyone, but she managed to kill Bill Clinton’s political career just by opening her mouth about…well, opening her mouth.
In a decade that was nothing short of super, it’s hard to narrow it down to just 9. What super powers did your favorite 90s celeb have?
