Got your attention there? Good. Because I absolutely LOVE to watch the bad girl or guy on TV and movies.

Admit it: the bad one is the one that you always remember. Have you ever noticed that? I think it’s because of their strong personalities that make them shine – sometimes even unintentionally outshining the protagonists! Coupled with wit, humour, and just the right level of sassiness, the tarts�and the bad ones are some of the most unforgettable characters.

Why we love her: First, she’s the fashion editor at�Blush.�Second, after reuniting with her daughter and finding out that said daughter has a teenage daughter herself, she proudly accepts being a grandmother.

Why she’s a tart: She follows her libido heart way more often than her head, which results to her breaking up marriages – her own and within her family – too many times.

Why we love her:�Her affairs made Stephanie Forrester her sworn enemy who planned and orchestrated Brooke’s rape attack. But when Stephanie was dying of cancer, Brooke was the one who stayed with her to support her.

Why he’s a tart:�Like Jason Stackhouse, Barney is a serial womaniser. He once made a promise that he would sleep with 200 girls, which he fulfils.

Why we love him:�Apart from his impeccable sense of style and amazing sense of humour, despite his womanising ways, he’s actually a very kind, caring, and thoughtful friend. Legen….wait for it….dairy!
