Am I the only one sick of hearing about Carrie PreJean, our new Anita Bryant? She's a beauty pageant queen, for crying out loud. She's entitled to her opinion about gay marriage as we all are. By answering the question that Perez Hilton posed (and the answer made her sound as dumb as a bucket of hair -- ie, we have a choice between same sex or opposite (?!) marriage in America. Really? Last time I checked, most states don't allow gay marriage), she casts herself as a martyr for the cause, claiming to know that her answer would cost her the tiara. From the sounds of it, she's just short of the type of courage required to hide Jewish people from the Nazis. A modern day Joan of Arc with fake boobs paid for by the state of California.
I could never get fake boobs. The pain alone must be something else. I could never run around with perfect hair talking about the sanctity of marriage. First, I'm divorced. Oh wait a minute, that didn't stop Anita Bryant. Okay, I'm not that pretty or perfect. Never been on an orange juice ad either. Also, I know what a civil union is, something Ms. Prejean doesn't. "I mean, I'll get back to you on that one," she said on FOX news. "I think the gays should have hospital rights." What the fuck? I agree with conservatives when they get enraged about actors going around, sprouting opinions about situations they don't really understand. An actor's job is to act. And a beauty pageant winner's job? Probably sticking to the talent portion of the show. When I was young, Miss Texas came from Mineral Wells and her talent was ventriloquism. Seems like that might suit the latest Ms. California.

A special hi to my newest commenter, Boneman -- you're always welcome here! I love what you said about the pictures being a sort of autobiography. I couldn't have put it better myself and Lord knows I've tried. Congratulations to beautiful Cheri who is having a girl! And yes to my girl Jodi -- it's a white wedding cake martini coming up. Why endure a wedding cake when you can have a wedding cake martini?

Does that mean I win a beauty pageant queen?
Cause I sure need another plant stand around here....

What is it about our culture that encourages celebrities-- even D-list celebs--to open their mouths about politics, etc? Miss USA has always been about cup size--couldn't they just leave it that way? It was a stupid set-up of a question, but it's equally ridiculous that she's now been co-opted as an anti-gay marriage mouthpiece.
"I could never get fake boobs...I could never run around with perfect hair talking about the sanctity of marriage." And those are just two of the many, many reasons why I adore you!
My hair stylist has implants. She seems relatively pain free and they add greatly to the experience. But maybe it's just me.--Charlie McCarthy
Let us pray for the gays and remember that marriage is a sacred union between a man and a woman. It is sacrament instituted by Christ and designed to give grace.--Archbishop of Detroit, Cardinal Adam Midol(ret.)

Michelle,
'Not that pretty'...I beg to differ, my dear!! :)
I heard about this gal at work the other day...give her a few weeks, and everyone will forget about her...unless VH1 or MTV gives her a show or something, may the Gods forbid.
Hope your weekend is good...take care!
-p.s.-Nice pic. :)
-p.p.s.- I would drink a martini that tastes like cake! :)
I never even bothered to know the young woman's name until you gave it...this toddler in a tiara was doing what she do...simply not doing it well is all. I can think of about ten thousand better replies to that question asked by a gay man that would have still conformed to a conservative viewpoint. But then I am only a 54DDD boob paid for in blood and tears.
Q.: What does "Fiat" in Fiat Motors stand for? A.: Fix it again Tony.--BBC
Thanks Michelle.
And trust me- big boobs aren't that lovely to have!
She was entitled to your opinion and expressed it. She should then have kept her mouth shut.
"Hospital rights?" What the hell does THAT mean? Probably that your gay lover gets to pull the plug on your gay ass, considering the source.
I just don't like the hypocrisy, myself. Don't be all high & mighty when you're desecrating your body-temple with implants & exploiting yourself on Nat'l TV, y'know?
Happy Birthday Michelle!
Happy Birthday here, too!!! xoxo
Hi Doll, the media gives play to D listers that have no more sense than god gave a chicken. However, it does give us pause and a good excuse for a martini! Can't wait for your next "cocktailomercial"! Happy Belalated B Day! xoxo
