My take on Baba Wawa's most fascinating peeps



I haven't blogged for awhile. Sorry. I get home from work and am so drained from writing I get exhausted even thinking about continuing it.

But I'm back. And I'm going to try to write more often.

So .... here's my take on Barbara Walter's Most Fascinating People this year.

*Jenny Sanford: The South Carolina governor's wife stayed with her husband despite him having an affair with another woman. That sentence doesn't even begin to explain the shenanigans this guy pulled. He went from being MIA to walking the Appalachian Trail to being found in Argentina. Then he admits to an affair with a woman, who, from what I read, he only hung out with like four times. Oh, and she's apparently his soul mate. I found it hilarious an Associated Press reporter approached him at an airport to ask for an interview, and he sat and talked with her for TWO HOURS and spilled his guts. I guess his wife was selected for the list because people may be fascinated with why she stood by her husband. I try not to judge. Her husband kicked it old school and admitted to his infidelity. Hopefully Tiger was watching Babs's show and taking notes.
*Tyler Perry: I have never seen any of his movies. Nor do I have any desire to see Madea's Xmas Parade or whatever they're called. They remind of me the Ernest movies. But that's what I find awesome: I have barely heard of this guy, never seen any of his movies and yet he is a freakin' gazillionaire.
*Lady Gaga: "Mission accomplished," is probably what she's thinking about being chosen for the show. Her goal has been to fascinate people. I must admit that I am quite fascinated with anyone who can make Kermit the Frog into a costume. Barbara asked if she was bisexual and all I thought was "Duh, yes." What she didn't ask was whether Gaga is a hermaphrodite. Now that question is fascinating.
*Kate Gosselin: Ugh. First of all, she looks like she's fresh off having a face-lift or some sort of plastic surgery. I don't know that I'm exactly fascinated by her. I'm more fascinated by the Jon and Kate machine. Or just the kids. Them by themselves kind of make me vomit in my mouth a little. I think they should be on a list called "The 10 People Most Fascinated with Themselves."
*Sarah Palin: Ugh. Next.
*Glenn Beck: I don't pay attention to him at all. So, not fascinated.
*Adam Lambert: So gay and so fab. I appreciate he doesn't apologize for his performance. I was not at all offended by it. I don't agree with ABC/Disney blurring out his boy on boy kiss. I'm not sure they should've shown him simulating oral sex on prime time. But I do understand why they were upset with is performance, because they said it changed drastically from what they saw in rehearsals. I can appreciate them spending millions of dollars on this broadcast and wanting to know what was going to happen. This all happened on ABC and Barbara's show is on ABC, so who had the last laugh? He shouldn't have any regrets, his name's in your mouth.
*Brett Favre: Pick a team and stick with it. Retire and stick with it. His wishy-washiness is not fascinating to me. He's like a rapper that retires every two years.
*Michael Jackson's kids: I'm watching this as I'm blogging and their segment better not be a promotion for the Jackson brothers' upcoming reality show on A&E (although I'm planning on watching).

I'm too sleepy to stay up for the most fascinating. Stay tuned on what I think ...

  1. Most fascinating was Michelle Obama. I love that Barbara laughs at Michelle when she begins to elaborate on a joke question about the family dog, but then spends half the interview asking about Michelle's arms. I don't know why Barbara gets so much respect in journalism. Have you seen The View? She stalls every conversation, takes another 10 minutes to tell the story, and she always does something weird with her hands that is completely distracting to me.
