Decade of top searches
Since
2001, Yahoo! has dipped into billions of searches to uncover our audience's
curiosities, interests, and what matters most to them. Unlike editorial
retrospectives or surveys, the rankings come from online users’ own search
behavior. Looking back, these lists truly sketch a society in motion: It's a
unique way to gauge social trends and interests in the year’s top stop stories,
compelling newsmakers, and viral fads.
Take a look back at a dozen years of Top 10s to see how the Web has grown — and
see what
preoccupied readers in 2012.

- Jane Fonda Might Be the Hottest Person at Cannes
Age is just a number when it comes to Jane Fonda. The 75-year-old fitness guru, actress, and philanthropist has been looking better than ever at the Cannes Film Festival this year, rocking every gown on the red carpet and schooling the much younger leading ladies on how to really work it. On Saturday, she dazzled in a custom turquoise Atelier Versace ensemble with Swarovski crystal detailing and cut-outs — yes, a 75-year-old woman actually pulled off the cut-out trend better than most 20-somethings! — at the "Jimmy P" premiere. Furthering our awe, she showed up to the premiere of "Inside Llewyn Davis" on Sunday glowing in a jaw-dropping raspberry Badgley Mischka dress. Check out the video to find out how she always manages to look so good and be sure to tune in to “omg! Insider” on TV tonight for more of the latest in entertainment news. Continue reading →
