Top Ten Celebrities Who Had Abortions
January 22, 2011 marks the 38th anniversary of Roe v. Wade, which legalized abortion in the United States. For all the ladies who have had abortions out there, here is a list of famous women who also underwent the procedure. Quite some company, I’d say.

I’m unclear as to why she is even a celebrity. She’s not funny. She’s not good looking. The only reason I can think is that television never had a sitcom staring an Asian chick, and she won the spin of the wheel and got it. She’s also No. 10 on Gunaxin’s female stand-up comics who are not funny.

So Marcia Brady was considered hot and was the dream of every teenage boy who watched the Brady Bunch, but she turned out to be a drug and sex addict. All of those guys who wanted to nail her only really needed an eight ball and restroom stall.

To think that a lesbian is on this list! If there’s any group of people where the abortion debate is virtually irrelevant, it’s the homosexuals. And if she had the kid, that could’ve been another tennis star.

Shepherd, a co-host on The View, said before she converted to Christianity, “I was sleeping with a lot of guys and had more abortions than I would like to count.”

Warren Beatty knocked her up, persuaded her to have an abortion (when it was still illegal), then married her. I thought the whole point of abortion was so you could avoid marriage!

Think I heard this was Biggie Smalls’ kid up in there. Lil’ Biggie. But Faith Evans had his kid so she won the marriage sweepstakes.

There you have it, even Lois Lane had an abortion. Best Kidder moment: When she went nuts in L.A. in 1996.

Another one of these ultra liberal folk singers. For some reason, I always thought the women who get abortions are the spoiled Catholic rich girls who get knocked up in high school, while it’s the outspoken feminists like DiFranco who only march for the rights but never actually exercise it. I stand corrected.

As a teenager, Whoopi abused drugs and engaged in promiscuous activities, getting pregnant and having a self-inflicted coat hanger abortion. Four more abortions ensued.

Abortion is to Steinem like sex is to a porn star. She pretty much had to have one just to keep her street cred.

Chelsea Handler. Handler likes to talk about how she got knocked up as a teenager, wanted to keep the baby, but was instructed by her parents to have the abortion. After all, Handler said, the child would’ve been half-black (you know, like Barak Obama).
Penny Marshall – Laverne had a child only because abortion wasn’t legal at the time (and has since claimed she was glad she didn’t have a choice). But when she got pregnant after Roe vs. Wade, she aborted.
Chris Evert – Jimmy Connors claims Evert’s abortion was the beginning of the end of their relationship.
Sharon Osbourne - Osbourne describes her abortion as one of the biggest mistakes of her life, and that she had a hard time conceiving children for many years after that.
Interesting video about Ms. magazine convincing celebrities to acknowledge having an abortion.
