Our Favorite Lady

just being herself.



My question is, if you don't want people to think of you as a dumb blond, why portray yourself as one?

P.S. I'm not talking about Martha.

That's funny -- I didn't see your P.S. until after I watched it and I was thinking, "Hmmm, I don't remember her having anything against Martha, and I don't know that people particularly think of her as 'dumb'..." I got it, though. :)

Cause she makes lot of money portraying the dumb blonde.

Lou, there isn't enough money in the world that would entice me to defame my own character like that. It just shows that she doesn't have any. Character, that is.

OK...lost on me. But I'm not at all literate about "stars." IL-literate, to be sure.

re: Martha. I think I told you one of my last company's bigger clients was MSO (we managed this lil web site). I became rather notorious (or more so, I should say) when early on in the MSO contract negotiations (in 2001) I declared I wanted to meet Martha, if at all possible. When asked "why?" I responded "Coz I have the SERIOUS hots for her." Everyone fell off their chairs laughing and I became immediately famous/notorious (take your pick). ANY time Martha's name was mentioned from that point forward people would say "Oh, you're talking about Buck's Lust Object, are ya?" Or some such snark.

Those young pups (I was the oldest guy in the company) just didn't get it or couldn't see it... whatever.

Buck, there is young blond about halfway through the commercial who can't get in the door. She calls someone on her cell phone and says that she can't get into the building again. He replies, "You have to pull the door, Jessica." She says, "Oh yeah."

That is Jessica Simpson.

Addendum to my response to Lou: I suppose if you really are a dumb blond, I don't guess it would bother you to portray yourself as one.

Buck said...

Thanks for the explanation, Becky. Sorry for being so clue-free...

No worries, Buck. I'm not up on too many of the newer pop stars myself. I didn't even know Ashley Simpson (sister of Jessica) had been busted for lip syncing until like a year after it had happened. Cody told me.
