    Hopefully this shouldn't dim America's collective hope for "Rock of Love" the musical.

    It's cute that Brett thinks the American Theatre Wing has their act together enough to research and be thorough about the statements they release.

    Clearly this was a failed attempt to take him out, thus preventing Rock of Love, Season 4.

    I recall staring at what seemed to be Shrek, a talking goat head and several monkey like creatures.


    In, other words, he saw the casts of Shreck:The Musical, The lion King, and Wicked. Welcome to the TONY AWARDS!

    in my dazed state I recall staring at what seemed to be Shrek, a talking goat head and several monkey like creatures.


    Fortunately, what with the volume of drugs that he's consumed over the course of his life this was a somewhat familiar experience.

    The first time I saw Karen Olivo I thought "she's a little Appoloniaish, no?"
    Hopefully she will politely return all gifts of lacy unitards and purple velvet frock coats.

    Karen's married...well, not for long. Too bad "Karen O" is already taken. It was probably Prince's go-to for the grand renaming ceremony which will consummate their funky union.

    Uh oh, Karen Olivo sure fits the profile of women Prince "likes." I bet he wrote about her in his diary...


    Dear Diary. I saw this girl last night, she's a cross between that chick I was married to in the 90s, Nia Peebles and Rosario Dawson, Isn't that delicious? I think I'll call her CoCo...

    I'm usually the last person to make complaints like this, but you seem to be basing this joke on an assumed equation of gayness and pedophilia, in kind of a disturbing way.

    @Richard Lawson: If you look at the comments, at least half of them are based around a suggestion of pedophilia. I'm glad the original joke wasn't meant the way johnnypotatoes took it to mean--but I don't think the he (and I) were the only ones to have misinterpreted, by a long shot.

    @Richard Lawson: When I think of vans and children my mind immediately reverts to Stranger, Danger! training. I start seeing lost puppies, long brown lincoln continentals, strangers bearing candy, and men who ask for directions beckoning me ever-closer to their vehicles.


    So, any adult/van/child joke is lost on me.

    It doesn't help your case that Elton looks like he's about to eat those children.
