In a year full of babies, alleged sex scandals, and arrests, what were the stories that surprised us the most?
We've counted down the top headlines that made us do a double take.
So, who made the list -- Kim Kardashian? Kate Middleton? Kristen Stewart?
From unexpected deaths and breakups to Hollywood shake-ups, these are the stories that made people talk this year.
10. Mommy porn became a thing.
E.L. James' erotic book series "Fifty Shades of Grey" not only made it okay for women to get hot and bothered while reading erotica on public transportation, but simultaneously helped stimulate the economy with a boost in erotic play toys and rope among other items.
9. The tumultuous year of Lindsay Lohan.

8. Jessica Simpson is already pregnant again.
