Nene Leakes – Real Housewives Of Atlanta

Stripper past? Check. Blonde bob or weave? Check. Down to throw hands with another woman on television for the cause? Check and check. Nene Leakes fills all of your prototypical ratchet categories the way LeBron fills a stat sheet.

Maya Wilkes – Girlfriends

The phrase you’re looking for is, “Oh, hell no!”

Snooki

Snooki – Jersey Shore

Don’t let yourself get fooled into thinking ratchets don’t come in all races. Between the fights and being down to squat and take a number one in a public, indoor bar, Snooki showcased just how ratchet she can be.

Cookie Lyon – Empire

As if there was any doubt about Cookie not making this list. When was the last time you heard a primetime TV character yell, “Run them pearls, hoe?”

Jhonni Blaze – Love & Hip-Hop: New York

Politely giving Precious Pearls the fade twice on Love & Hip Hop: New York earned Jhonni the spot she so clearly coveted.

Shenehneh Jenkins – Martin

If there was a chicken head hall of fame, rest assured Shenehneh Jenkins would have her own bronze statue complete with dookie braids, door knockers, and a neon green fanny pack.

Tasha Mack – The Game

She aspired to and achieved greatness, but Malik was basically a living reminder that Tasha wasn’t afraid to “take it there” and remove her earrings if the drama kicked off.

Big Ang – Mob Wives

There’s a thin line between being a ride or die chick and being that chick who might just die during the ride. Pencil in Angela Raiola as the former.

Tiffany “New York” Pollard – Flavor Of Love

You can probably trace the current climate of women down to shame themselves on TV for a quick buck back to New York. Either that, or she was really attracted to Flavor Flav.

Farrah Abraham – Teen Mom

Few shows have done as much for trailer park women as MTV’s Teen Mom. And between her freaky adult flicks and botched plastic surgery, Farrah Abraham has owned the lane that proverbial double wide occupies.

Natalie Nunn – Bad Girls Club

Not only was Natalie down to duff out another female for any number of trite reasons, she happily participated in petty gossip when Wiz Khalifa upgraded from her.

Paris Hilton

Paris Hilton – The Simple Life

If carrying a dog in a purse, continuously being caught sans panties with your box on display, and a quick skid bid doesn’t qualify Paris for this list, what does?

Monica "Danger" Leon

Monica “Danger” Leon – For The Love Of Ray J

With her history of alleged mental instability and that face tattoo, Danger was Gucci Mane before Gucci Mane.

Persia – The (White) Rapper Show

Remember that time Persia beat a dude with a sex toy?
