HOT 100 2010
THE HOT 100
The Hot 100 is a list of Scots who’ve made a sizeable creative splash in 2010. It includes musicians, artists, writers, actors, fashion designers, technological innovators, shop owners, festival directors, record label heads and one mad cyclist. Painstakingly compiled, researched and ordered by Liststaff, it covers the cultural year at a glance and, though controversial, should also be seen as a huge slap on the back for Scottish talent. We didn’t spit out a superstar in 2010 – James McAvoy, David Tennant and Kelly Macdonald are all absent from this list for example – but there were plenty of candidates closer to home who we were delighted to include, and a few we were glum we didn’t have space for.
