#3Forbes 30 under 30 is a joke. One of the characters on Bravo's "Startup Silicon Valley" was chosen a couple of years ago:

Anyone that's watched that show can tell you what a joke/fake she is.
I'm not saying everyone on that list isn't impressive, but I would certainly take it with a grain of salt.

It seems odd to me that they highlighted Lady Gaga, Katy Perry, Justin Bieber, etc. under Music when there are plenty of successful internet-/self-created acts that are much more impressive in talent and ability to market. Seems unfair to people who don't have millions of dollars and dozens of handlers.
When I think 30 Under 30, I think people I don't know that are pushing the industry forward, not people that are shoved down my throat through old methods.

She was in the media category. For some people in that category being included in even a silly TV show is a desirable career move.

Thanks PG. I counted 29 names -- if there were only one more YC alum on the lists we would have 30 YC Forbes 30 Under 30.
