..the Dalai Lama?

Yep. Or at least, that’s what Radar magazine says. They “inducted” His Holiness into their “Hype Report,” (also known as the “Overrated 100″), a “scientific survey of the world’s most overrated people, places, & things.”

Yaknow, I generally love Radar – there’s a sort of SPY magazine flair to it that is generally missing from the newsstands. I even subscribe.

But really, choosing the Dalai Lama as the 25th most overrated person, place, or thing seems to be little more than a stunt.

…I know, I know: that’s the point. Right.

But still. It seems just… dumb. Which SPY (may it rest in peace), for all its snarkiness, never was.

(And while we’re talking about SPY, check out the Horse’s homage from last year.)
