Intel has officially released its annual Most Dangerous Celebrities study.

Now in its 10th year, the study reveals which celebrities, musicians and TV hosts generate the most dangerous search results, potentially exposing consumers to malware.

While it’s mostly a tongue-in-cheek look at consumer culture and search terms, there is some method to the process.

Searching for ‘Amy Schumer Torrent’ for example, results in a 33% chance of connecting to a malicious website.

Check out the most dangerous names on Google below:

Position Celebrity Percentage
1 Amy Schumer 16.11%
2 Justin Bieber 15.00%
3 Carson Daly 13.44%
4 Will Smith 13.44%
5 Rihanna 13.33%
6 Miley Cyrus 12.67%
7 Chris Hardwick 12.56%
8 Daniel Tosh 11.56%
9 Selena Gomez 11.11%
10 Kesha 11.11%
