The Longest 1 Minute And 4 Seconds Of Your Life
For some reason only known to the management of the Chicago Cubs or their parent The Tribune Company, someone thought it would be a good idea to invite Denise Richards to sing Take Me Out To The Ballgame this past Friday. This of course shows the same good judgment and common sense which forced them into bankruptcy earlier this year. I understand that all celebrities do not make good singers and I think most people don't care as long as the celebrity is famous enough. If you get Hugh Jackman in there, the crowd won't care how he sings or probably what he sings.
Denise Richards on the other hand is an entirely different story. Besides being a completely awful singer and not knowing the words, she isn't that big of a celebrity. It hardly makes sense to fly her in, put her up in a hotel and pay a fee (kind of sounds like another job), to someone that most people don't really like.
Anyway, if you enjoy cats fighting at night or nails running down a chalkboard, then I have a treat for you.
Based on the title of this post I thought it would be another "Groupidity" clip. Thank God for small miracles.
ReplyDeleteShe made ROSEANNE sound like Leontyne Price
ReplyDeleteShe really thinks she is cute, doesn't she?
ReplyDeleteGo away Denise! You aren't welcome in our town.
ReplyDeleteWell, if they declared bankruptcy, maybe she was all they could afford.
ReplyDeleteWow, Sue Ellen, with just one comment you managed to out-suck Denise. Way to go.
ReplyDeleteThere is probably only one thing that Denise Richards does well with her mouth open. It's definitely not talking, acting or singing.
ReplyDelete@ Mooshki:
ReplyDeleteI've never actually watched a Groupidity clip, it just popped into my head so I wrote it. I guess I shouldn't attempt humour on a gossip site. Sorry.
p.s. Do you know how many sailors I would have to find to out suck DR? A fleet Mooshki, a fleet!
ReplyDeleteSue Ellen, sorry I misinterpreted. I didn't get that it was a joke. Must be my Monday brain.
ReplyDeleteGuess she was the cheapest singer they could get.
ReplyDeleteUnfortunately, I saw (and heard) a clip of this disaster on the news. I'm thinking she should stick to her day job. Oh, wait - what am I thinking?
ReplyDeleteThe Curse of the Cubs lives on.
@Mooshki
ReplyDeleteIt's hard to tell tone on the internets, that's why it will never superceed one on one interaction. ;)
As a Cubs fan, I am mortified...
ReplyDeletei was there. it was truly an assault on the ears.
ReplyDeleteLordy...
ReplyDeleteWell, "Take Me Out to the Ballgame" isn't meant to be sung by a world-class singer - it's usually just some celebrity, singer or not, who they can point the jumbotron camera at. It's meant to be silly. But DR is really, really scraping the bottom ofthe barrell. Wasn't Speidi available?
ReplyDeleteJim Carrey's singing ass wasn't available?
ReplyDeleteDID Denise do this for free so it could end up on her reality show next year?
ReplyDeletePoor Harry Caray is crying in Baseball Heaven.
ReplyDeleteMs Richards could have butchered this for the publicity. Remember how much airtime Roseann got when she sang bad.Anything for airtime children.
There really is just NO excuse for this.
ReplyDeleteArdleigh, she sounded exactly like she did when she sang in Drop Dead Gorgeous. She issued a statement (of course) this afternoon saying that she did it for charity, and we're all evil for turning her good deed into something bad. LOL
