Over a period of time, there have been celebrity speakers who weren’t able to communicate and gave live speeches before their audience. Celebrities are more subject to critics and public takes more notice of their gestures, facial expressions and reactions. As most of their speeches and words are being recorded, they have to be more careful about their public speaking.
10. Mahmoud Ahmadinejad
He is the president of Iran and has been a worst speaker after his elections. Mostly his speeches are about arrogant and dissented. His speeches and talks are mostly inconvenient and sound less political. There has been a lot of controversy regarding his speech on “
World without Zionism”. The bad and somehow biased translation caused some problems. The statement “wiped off the map” has seen a lot of controversy and translations. Many news sources quoted as English medium means “a place to “cause a place to stop existing.” Lot of misunderstandings created as a result of his statement.
A foreign minister of Iran cleared up that no one could remove or eliminate a country from a map or made it stop existing. Whatever happened was a result of mistranslation and careless selection of words. So he is considered as a bad speaker for his audience.
9. Tiger Woods
What is it that makes this guy a completely bad speaker? Nothing much though has been noticed about him much but how is he considered a bad speaker? The answer is that he is a no speaker. And a “no Speaker” is a bad speaker. When you are a celebrity, you must stay in touch with your fans and people. No interviews, no clips, no serious statements were from his side, except a few ordinary “
blog press releases” and some classic you tube game clips. Ordinary blog press can be done by normal bloggers and the style of addressing the audience is much better. Just some little words on great fan support and nothing very astounding or promising from his side. He is an excellent player but a very bad speaker and communicator. These kinds of blogs and speaking may not give him much fame.
8. Mark Sanford
What are the things that make him a public bad speaker? Quite a few can be mentioned. After being caught over an extramarital affair with
Maria Belén Chapur, an Argentina based journalist, he disappeared from public. He behaved and spoke very childishly and weirdly during the press conference. After watching his confession, it sounds like a speech of an ordinary teenager boy who is caught by his parents. During the 18 minutes of his
Unplugged Confession, he looks confused stressed and about to cry. While speaking about his absence live where he talks about his absence, the expressions on his face aren’t suitable for a Public speaker. Many celebrities may have gone through such circumstances, but they were able to communicate and speak well about their issues. Mark for sure lacks this quality of good public speaking.
7. Caroline Kennedy
She is a great woman with so many skills and talents. She happens to be a woman of tradition that marks so much diversity and skill with her personality. When she went public after being appointed at a New York Senate seat, came out. Her eye contact and her gestures were really strange and weird. Mostly she was seen using words like “
ums and uhs” that sounds bad and highly unacceptable for a political public speaker. When she announced her interest in Senate seat, she sounded hesitant, less confident and uncertain, that sounds unacceptable for a political public speaker. If you can’t speak well, you may be publicly popular.
6. Carrie Prejean
What
Carrie Prejean proved on Larry King Live Show, with extremely shocking words like “Larry you are being inappropriate,” sounded weird. The Ex Miss USA sounded weird and strange on the show. She threatened very badly to quit and leave the show. It can be said that she sounded a bit rude over the show. The words were even not suitable and the style of addressing even sounds very rude. If one looks closely at her expressions and behavior, she even switched off her mike in robust and anger. She repeated the “
inappropriate” word so many times, that it lost its essence. This was an example of a very bad public speaking by a former beauty contest winner.
5. Barack Obama
It may be a perception in the minds of many of his fans about his extraordinary speaking skills and public love. He has so many fans as well. He has been an excellent speaker over a period of time. But according to a communication agency, he speaks in a sing-song kind manner and sounds aloof. His more emphasis is towards script and teleprompter though he never got any professional training for using it. Apart from his behavioral flaws, some of his speeches suffer from
minor communication flaws. He often makes gaffes while speaking spontaneously. These are so many communication flaws that a famous political figure must never have.
4. Timothy Geithner
His style of communication has been worst over the years. There sounded a lot of aloofness air and proved that he could not speak well. While announcing the financial stability plan, the style of describing and talking about economic strength did sound very appealing and attractive. Also, some points in his speech sounded irrelevant and overdone. He can be seen giving very
bad expressions and gestures as well. He sounds a bit awkward and worried. Also, over committing a genuine financial mistake (income tax error), the way he confessed his mistake wasn’t that good. This kind of speaking brings him in a list of bad speakers.
3. Edward Liddy
The Ex CEO, Chairman and president of Allstate comes in a list of bad speakers. He was also the CEO of AIG group. His misunderstood communication where he called the bonuses, “distasteful”, created a problem. The AIG continued to pay out handsome bonuses. Also, when he talks about those controversial bonuses, he doesn’t sound much great.
2. Bobby Jindal
How this guy comes in the list of worst celebrity speakers? Public speaking is not an easy task. One needs special training and skills for that.
Governor Bobby Jindal doesn’t seem very comfortable while his public speaking. In his
Republican Response Speech part 2, he
looks confused and it seems very clear that he is not at all comfortable using a teleprompter. It seems as if he is using it for the very first time. Also, one won’t see a pitch or tone variation in his voice. It sounds same throughout the speech. The part one of the speech had the same speaking flaws.
1. Asif Ali Zardari
What makes him a bad speaker? His talk to Al Jazeera sounded good when it started, but seemed very reserved and boring monotone in the end. The speech sounded good, but the hand movements and confused facial expressions made the live appearance very formal. The kind of
gestures and facial expressions that he gave in public are highly unacceptable for a political leader and president.
