Larry King Needs Some Harry Carey Glasses


Yes, I know the headline might be confusing to some of you, but for those of you who knew who Harry Carey was, you will remember that he had glasses as thick as a coke bottle. Seriously. The lenses on his glasses were about 3 inches thick. I don't think you could even see his eyes they were so thick. Anyway, Larry King might be needing some of those or at least a producer who travels with him constantly. The reason?

According to The Globe, Larry was enjoying some deli last week when in walked Gwen Stefani to the same place. Larry, who is hip and cool in his own mind, sauntered his Mr. Burns like self over to Gwen and proceeded to drool while saying how big of a fan his kids are of her and would she sign an autograph, and while she was at it, maybe movie his wheelchair back into place. Gwen, being the lovely person she is, signed the autograph and even promised to send a picture as well.

Larry couldn't have been happier and then looked down at the signature and said, "Oh, I'm sorry I thought you were Christina Aguilera. Oh Larry. I'm guessing Larry doesn't know who Gwen even is or he would have shut his mouth and not inserted his foot. Smooth move for a guy who has been on radio since it was invented. He probably thought Gwen was just some actress or something and not the prize he was seeking. If he had known who she was, I am guessing he would have kept his mouth shut and not made himself look like an idiot or Gwen look bad.

I don't watch Larry, but hasn't he had Christina on the show? Maybe it was when Seacrest was hosting or something, but I could have sworn I saw two ton makeup lady on there one night.

  2. i say it's all for publicity. larry is a little bit of a media whore, let's not forget. he's not going to allow himself to deliberately look like a decrepit old geezer unless there's something in it for him.

  3. Speaking of which, his wife was on the other night, and she looks SOOO scary. Kind of Joker-like.

    Okay, we weren't talking about that, I just wanted to mention it.

  4. Why is this geezer still on the air? He obviously doesn't know half the people he interviews, his guests often need to correct him. He reads pre-scripted questions, you can totally see him reading his flash cards while the guest is speaking. I have never understood this guy's ability to stay on CNN.

  5. So he just blurts out the first thing that comes to mind? Makes me believe he does interview strictly off of notes.

    Yes EL he did have Christina on the show, and she was PISSED when he didn't know who she was and commented on her "soft, crooner" voice, to which she snottily retorted that she's actually more of a belting powerhouse.

  10. this fucker has been animatronic since '98, time for a manual upgrade and reboot.

    how bad is it everytime they have someone relevant on his show, he has a guest host like Joy Behar (who i love!) or Gaycrest, as if he wouldn't be able to pull off an interview with Adam Lambert.

    give him some geritol and blanket to cuddle with, gramps is tired.

  11. Well, I totally misread the headline and thought it said "Mary Carey" glasses and expected it would be that Larry King mistook Mary Carey for Gwen Stefani. Because honestly, I never know it's Christina Aguilera until someone says it's her. And I don't know anything about Mary Carey, other than she was the porn star who ran for governor of california.

    I should have put on the reading glasses.

  12. "sauntered his Mr.Burns like self"

    HAHAHAHA! Enty you kill me thanks for that image. Does that make Seacrest his Mr. Smithers?


    Poor Gwen. She should have dissed him slyly in return. Put on her best blonde bimbo attitude and said, " That's OK Mr. King. Mistakes happen. I thought you were dead." (then fake laughed)& walked away.

  14. I'm with ardleigh on that image. It's the hands that make it.

    Larry King used to be good. Many, many years ago. But he's no Tom Snyder. Loved watching Tomorrow.

    Super fug picture of Christina. Has she had her nose done since then?

  16. I don't know...both women wear a LOT of makeup. I am not saying I would ever confuse the two...for one thing Gwen looks much taller than xtina but they both have the pancake foundation, red lips, liquid eyeliner, bleached hair thing going on.
