In the event you failed to renew your Us Weekly subscription last year, Barbara Walters will help get you caught during her upcoming ABC special.

For her annual year-end list, the ABC personality/journalist (apparently) pored through the tabloids to find the names she -- not necessarily we -- found most interesting.

Although she still has room to surprise us with the final two names, you can preview most of her selections after the jump.

Here are eight of the names (in alphabetical order):

1. Justin Bieber
2. Sandra Bullock
3. LeBron James
4. The cast of Jersey Shore
5. Jennifer Lopez
6. Kate Middleton
7. Sarah Palin
8. Betty White

The “10 Most Fascinating People of 2010” will be (formally) unveiled on Thursday, December 9.
