No accusations here, and nothing personal. I was referring to the poll and only the poll, which whether or not you intended it, is loaded with a conclusion (hence the term "loaded question").
The classic example often used to teach the concept of a loaded question goes like this: "Who is the most evil, Clinton, Obama, or Edwards", or "who is the most evil, McCain, Romney, or Paul", etc. Your poll is a textbook example. Polling theory is a well studied, and there are rules to how to make a good poll question.
I was making no judgment on you, but only commenting on your poll and how it might not be serving your goals of getting peoples unbiased reactions to the celebrities. You did ask for our opinions on the matter.
