Ruby Rose is the most dangerous celebrity on the internet.
McAfee, a cybersecurity firm, announced on Tuesday that the Australian actress and model’s name brought up the most search results with websites carrying viruses or malware.
The list also included reality TV star Kristin Cavallari (No. 2), actress Marion Cotillard (No. 3), “Wonder Woman” Lynda Carter (No. 4), actress Rose Byrne (No. 5), “Will & Grace” star Debra Messing (No. 6), reality TV star Kourtney Kardashian (No. 7), actress Amber Heard (No. 8), morning TV show host Kelly Ripa (No. 9) and actor Brad William Henke (No 10).
Gary Davis, chief consumer security evangelist at McAfee, said in a statement the list is meant to help internet users stay safe.
“In our hyper-connected world, it’s important for consumers to think before they click to be sure that they are landing on safe digital content and protecting themselves from cybersecurity threats that may be used to infect their devices or steal their identity,” Davis says. “So whether you’re looking up what Ruby did on the latest ‘Orange is the New Black’ episode, or what Kristin Cavallari wore at the latest awards show, make sure you’re searching the internet safely.”
