I guess even the most ass kissiest publication in the free world sometimes wakes up on the wrong side of the bed. Either that or the person who edited the story is new and came from someplace like a blog and snark. The above photo is the one People magazine used in their story talking about the wedding of Picabo Street. Besides having one of the coolest names around, Picabo, also has won a gold medal in skiing.
The story came because Picabo or her publicist or someone called and told People that Picabo got married October 25th. Apparently when your 15 minutes are up, good news travels much slower. So slow in fact that many marriages would have been over by this time. It must suck thinking you are somewhat of a celebrity, get married in front of a ton of people, have designers make clothes for you and yet, still no tabloid cares. Well, People does. At least to an extent. If Picabo or the publicist was handing out this "exclusive" don't you think they could have provided a photo that wasn't from the 9th grade ski club yearbook photo. This is the picture she wants the world to associate with her wedding?
Hopefully People will correct this and pay her an obscene amount of money for her real wedding photos. Congratulations to the couple.
HAS BEEN. DON'T CARE.
ReplyDeleteI do. She worked her butt off for that medal. Does anyone still read People - except in waiting rooms?
ReplyDeleteShe needs to get those eyebrows under control...amongst other things.
ReplyDeleteHoly moustache, Picabo!!!
ReplyDeleteI do love her name though. I heard her parents let her pick it herself.
What medal? She never won an Olympic medal, just World Cup competitions over 10 years ago. She's no longer relevant. And no, people don't real People (aka Kneepads Magazine), unless it's free in a doctor's office and a sad choice between it an Baby's First Poop Magazine.
ReplyDeleteActually she won a silver at Lillehammer in 94 and a gold medal at Nagano in 98. One hell of an athlete.
ReplyDeleteShe's as relevant as any retired athlete who had that level of success during their career. Calling her irrelevant is a disrespect she doesn't deserve.
