May 16: Oh no, Anna Nicole

I know that I shouldn’t act surprised but the truth of the matter is that I really am. I can’t believe that people are still writing about Anna Nicole Smith. That can mean only one thing: that people are still interested in reading about Anna Nicole Smith. WHY???

I can honestly say that until this morning I hadn’t read one word about her death. Still, that doesn’t mean that I’m ignorant on the subject. You’d have to live in a shoe to not at least know that skeleton of the story, but come on... Let it go. Let her rest. Even post-mortem, and months after the fact, the peoples’ interest in her is still palpable. Some German businessman bought two of her diaries for $500,000. Are you kidding me? Again, WHY???

At this point, the only thing less interesting than Anna Nicole Smith is what Britney Spears isn’t wearing in public these days. The story is ridiculous, as is the press’ undying infatuation with this talentless, dead, past her prime, supermodel. Writing to cue, we cooked up an equally ridiculous song and video. I guess that my role in the video is that of the press or something. I’m not sure. I think we may have gone too far with this one.

I’m going to blame Evan. See you tomorrow.
