10. Kristen Stewart
It was a rough year for Twilight's leading lady. But by the time the red carpet rolled out at the Breaking Dawn Part 2 premiere, Robsten was unbroken and K.Stew was back on top.
9. Lindsay Lohan
LiLo faced some legal trouble at the beginning of the year...and at the end. But somewhere in the middle there was a brief, fleeting moment of courtroom happiness.
8. Robert Downey Jr.
The world couldn't get enough superheroes this year. So what could possibly be better than Iron Man and a dozen adorable clones? Nice goatee, little dude in the middle!
7. Prince Harry
While he may have had more talked about pictures this year (cough leaked cell phone shots of his royal toosh cough), we just love seeing our favorite prince party rocking in Vegas.
6. Miley Cyrus
It was the year of Instagram, and no filtered photo made quite as big a splash as when Liam Hemsworth's fiancée posted this foreboding shot. And now, a moment of silence for the Miley bun.
5. Josh Hutcherson and Jennifer Lawrence
There's a new franchise in town. And when Katniss and Peeta hit the red carpet for the first premiere of their Hunger Games series, they received a welcoming fit for Panem.
4. Beyoncé & Blue Ivy
Whatever people may have whispered about Jay-Z and his wife during her pregnancy, there's no question about the love shared in this adorable pic of new mom and daughter.
3. McKayla Maroney
At least one gymnast might not have been as in awe of the summer Olympics as the rest of us. And she sparked an Internet-wide meme with her signature scowl. To be brief, McKayla Maroney is not impressed.
2. Angelina Jolie
Forget Best Picture! Because the 84th annual Academy Awards was all about Best Leg, an award given to Brad Pitt's fiancée for her red carpet posing.
1. Barack and Michelle Obama
"Four more years," the president captioned this photo, which he tweeted out on election night. The loving shot of the first family went on to become the most retweeted picture ever.
