VH1 your place for over-the-hill celebrity embarassment

“Paris Hilton decided to visit David Letterman last week, in spite of the debacle that her last appearance became. I’m sorry, but this gal is simply an idiot. What I really loved, though, was her discussion of her clothing line. She said that all of the items are under $100 or $200 (genius, I tell you), because she wants her merchandise to be affordable to everyone.”

Paris Hilton decided to visit David Letterman last week, in spite of the debacle that her last appearance became. I’m sorry, but this gal is simply an idiot.

What I really loved, though, was her discussion of her clothing line. She said that all of the items are under $100 or $200 (genius, I tell you), because she wants her merchandise to be affordable to everyone.

Talk about clueless. For the average individual – or teenaged girl, a $200 dress or $100 pair of pants is not affordable.

Also, as David Letterman pointed out (God bless him), it might be a good idea to wear something from her collection when she does appearances on TV shows. No kidding.

Paris is the new Gene Simmons. There is no merchandising she’ll say no to. Case in point: sparkling wine in a can. I’m not making this up.

A few days ago, Larry Birkhead invited Entertainment Tonight along as he took his daughter to visit Anna Nicole’s grave for the first time. I don’t even know what to say about that.

Now I must tell you about VH1. Glorious, reinvented VH1.

We have My Fair Brady: Maybe Baby?, Scott Baio is 46 and Pregnant, Rock of Love 2 and the deliciously decadent Celebrity Rehab.

This week on My Fair Brady has Peter Brady (OK, OK, Christopher Knight) trying to work through his peculiar revulsion to seeing his wife (Adrian Curry) in naked photos with another woman. Huh?

She thought the photo shoot was the most awesome gift a woman could give her husband. I agreed with her, which was a first. The two are the biggest drama queens ever. Fun.

Scott Baio is 46 and Pregnant and still as cute as ever. In the last episode, he went home to Brooklyn, met up with his childhood friends and then … cried over the thought of not sharing the joy of his baby with his father, who is deceased. Awww.

Rock of Love 2? Wow. For one thing, the overwhelming majority of these women are skanks just a step above the Flavor of Love variety. Are you telling me that an aging rock star can’t get better looking women than this? Yikes.

And, enough with that bandana already. Seriously.

Finally … Celebrity Rehab. Yum.

To recap, Brigitte Nielson is in this celebreality train wreck, which is amusing. Jeff Conaway, also known as Kenickie from Grease, is, by far, the most fascinating. The guy is apparently taking everything that isn’t nailed down and can barely function.

Daniel Baldwin was also on the show, although he claims he has been clean and sober for nine months, since he was in his last rehab. Odd.

Anyway, last week, he left rehab because he said that the environment wasn’t conducive to his sobriety. The show ended with Mary Carey (porn star) revealing that Baldwin had sent her naughty photos of himself on his cell phone and requested ones of her and, presumably, her vag. So, everyone will be addressing his dishonesty and manipulation on tonight’s episode. That’s good for recovery.

But even better for his pregnant wife, I’m sure.
