3. Victoria Stiviano
Over the years, former owner of the Los Angeles Clippers Donald Sterling likely created more black millionaires than all government programs throughout history combined. Yet his gold-digging ho of a mistress, Victoria Stiviano, brought Sterling’s basketball empire crashing down—and made Sterling the most hated man in America—when she released audiotapes of him pathetically asking her not to bring young black Mandingo studs with her to Clippers games, thereby humiliating him sexually in his wrinkly, toad-like dotage. It mattered not that the half-black Stiviano had been recorded on tape saying things about blacks that were objectively more demeaning than anything Sterling had said. She achieved fame and money in the most despicable of ways—by destroying someone else.
