Come On Get Happy was probably not what David Cassidy was singing last night. David was arrested by police in Florida after he was spotted driving on and off the road in his Mercedes. When David was pulled over he told the police he had a glass of wine at lunch and popped a pain killer but that was it. Of course when the police found a half empty bottle of bourbon in the back seat of the car, David had no explanation. Police said David took a test and blew almost twice the legal limit for drinking and driving.
Jesus Christ. What is so fucking hard about not driving when you're drunk? The thing that pisses me off is that it will be my Ma who gets killed while she's walking across the street, and the drunk driver will be just dandy. If the drunks just killed themselves, I wouldn't worry, but that's not how it happens.
ReplyDeleteAlso, I can't believe this dude used to be a sex symbol. His face looks like the guy in the Cher movie Mask. You melting candle face son of a bitch.
ReplyDeleteAnd they are really tough on driving drunk in Florida...he will lose his license for a year at least..
ReplyDeleteAnd I wanted to marry him and have his babies...the closest I got was seeing him in concert when I was 13. LOL...looks like I lucked out!!
ReplyDeleteBeauty really is a curse when you lose it. It's like losing a super power.
ReplyDeleteAllegedly that is one of the things that drove Mel crazy when he lost his good looks.
Hard to feel sorry for people (Mel) who lose their good looks by smoking 2 packs a day and hard drinking for 20+ years!
ReplyDeleteAt least Mel didn't have his face pulled tight like rubber. There are good examples of male plastic surgery out there - sadly Keith Partridge is not one of them.
ReplyDeleteAgree, Cheryl.
ReplyDeleteLooks like the same thing happened to Cassidy - he used to be dreamy.
I was one of the talent hired to be in a commercial for David's show w/ Sheena Easton back in 2000 when he was at the Rio in Las Vegas. He was a complete prima donna-douche bag-prick of the highest order during the entire thing. The way he treated the folks filming the ad and doing the lights and sound was just awful. Talk about little man syndrome! And you could tell that they were doing their best to be polite to him and just get the thing shot and over with, even though you knew they wished they could rip his head off for his atrocious behavior. They were very professional despite the circumstances, Mr. Cassidy, was not.
ReplyDeleteIf anyone deserved to have his drink pee'd in and then served to him, it was him. And I hope they did something to that effect, too, because he really had it coming.
And I was always in LOVE with Shawn growing up.
Team Shawn too!
ReplyDeleteFrom the look on his face in that mug shot the bastard could be singing Come On Get Happy. I
ReplyDeletethink that really pisses me off,
he's so frigging smug and he could have killed someone.
He prob. is of the mind set any publicity is good publicity.
Team Shaun, three! Even had a Hardy Boys lunch box.
ReplyDeleteI loved David in his heyday, but he has certainly aged badly. A sad person with a sad life.
ReplyDeleteOh, I wanted the Hardy Boys lunch box! I remember when they had HB shirts and jackets in the teen dept. I coveted those! I had the poster on my wall where he's in the blue satin jacket and no shirt on underneath, standing with the mountains behind it. I thought he and it was the bees knees!
ReplyDeleteI love Sue Ellen's rant. Can you come over to my house and call some of my friends & family members to tell them off a la Chris Rock? They've been so rude to me lately and I'm too chickenshit to call them on it. I'll fly you in and we can make a day of it ... maybe we should wait until after I have this baby though so we can booze it up a bit too. :-)
ReplyDeleteI loved the Partridge Family but I always thought David Cassidy looked like a stuck-up jerk. And he was too pretty. I did have the lunchbox, though.
ReplyDeleteI have a friend in common with Kay Lenz. Ah, the stories she could tell.
@chopchop
ReplyDeleteI'll do it for free because the satisfaction I get is enough payment for me. Sometimes, people need to be told, even me. I get told all the time by people. It's not a big thing.
Poor chopchop, they need to take care of your in your pregnant time of need.
Like Father Like Son. I suppose it really does in the family. His drunk father burned to death in a fire.Sad!
ReplyDeleteYa KNOW he could afford a limo on call at all times.
ReplyDeleteFor shame.
Last summer David Cassidy put on a concert in our area. We dragged our kids with us and spent all summer trying to tell them just how big he was in the 70's. I felt bad at the time that he was reduced to playing at a free outdoor concert for the Town of Oyster Bay. I guess he feels the same way. I can't imagine going from the top to basically nothing.
ReplyDeleteInteresting story, M!
ReplyDeleteI love how much he lied about what he had to drink! What a moron!
Bummer ... I had a poster of him on wall when I was a teenager, and he was popular.
