    No, really...

    I'm a sucker for tests (and scientific tests at that). I know we all know Dr. Drew has it out for celebs and their . With Celeb Rehab and his show on Headline News. oh and literally being on call whenever there is a Lindsay Lohan or Britney Spears crisis he literally has no time to sleep.

    In 2006 he published this snazzy study (I can't remember what journal but I know it's there...one of those you have to pay to find it unless your school had it) about the levels of narcissism in celebrities. He developed a test called the Narcissistic Personality Inventory and administered it during Loveline. Of course publishing the test was a plug for his book, but nonetheless...

    After reading the article I wanted to take the test...now you can

    I scored an 8; medium in superiority and exploitativeness, but low in all other categories.

    Some of the answer choices were horrible, though. There's a lot of grey area between "I wish somebody would someday write my biography" and "I don't like people to pry into my life for any reason," for example.

    That's what I love about those types of tests. There can't be a grey area and you can't qualify it with anything.

    If I remember correctly (it was a few hours ago) the only one I scored medium on was vanity.

    Exactly why I stopped after answering like 6 questions...they are ing horrible, I felt as though not a single answer was even close to accurate for how I truly am. I know that that's the point on a lot of these tests, to make you make a choice, but overall I see little point in taking the test because you often have to make a great leap in the questions and therefore the result for any given person can range very widely.

    19 with a high in exploitiveness or whatever he called it and high on another one but I forgot what it was. I think it was the first one.

    The irony of Dr. Drew...the dude is such a diva and an egomaniac that he destroyed Loveline when he ousted Poorman...

    Anyhoo...

    I got 23...I basically just pressed things.

    Simply taking the test should score one as somewhat narcissistic at least. That said, here goes!

    Low on self self-sufficiency? I've worked in departments by myself for most of my years at work. I live on my own and am raising a 2 and 4 year old on my own.

    Some choices are stupid like, "I like to be a leader or I like to follow."

    There's a grey area. If someone wants to take the reins, I'd give them their chance and let them show what they can do. If a leader needs to step up, I'll do it no problem. I can follow or lead depending on what the situation calls for. Or the center of attention part. I don't always want to be the center of attention but I'm not uncomfortable with people watching me.

    Finally, I can talk myself out of anything AND take responsibility for my actions.

    Narcissism and self-en lement is celebrated enthusiastically in the USA, whereas in countries like China or Sweden the opposite is true. I think it's correlated with capitalism.
