Alison Arngrim - AKA Nellie Olson!
I stumbled across an article about Alison earlier this week and since nobody else really made any news this week, why not give the award to her!
Nellie Olson was the original "Mean Girl" as she made life for Laura Ingalls and the entire town of Walnut Grove a living Hell! Each week we couldn't wait to see what kind of terror she would unleash and whether it was blackmailing Laura to be her slave over a stolen music box or convincing the townsfolk that Bunny the horse had kicked her and therefore the horse needed to be "put down" just to piss off Laura, She made life on the Prairie Must See TV.
After "Little House" Alison became a tireless activist for AIDS awareness and education after the untimely death of her Little House costar, Steve Tracy (Percival) in 1986.Alison is an icon in the Gay community and is currently touring the country with her one woman stand up act "Confessions of a Prairie Bitch" the show can be seen at venues across the country ranging from the Vancouver Gay Men’s Chorus in February to a prison guard's convention in Las Vegas.

I was shocked that Mr. Blackwell had her on the top 10 worst dressed list...
Seems kind of like calling out Dr. Bombay on Bewitched...
