the larry king replacement and a touch of eye candy

I may as well start with this cos it’s a kind of mix between eye candy and entertainment news.  The news part prolly will not interest BMEWS readers except that I found a tie in to the one of the eye candies and the subject of ...

PIERS MORGAN.
He’s the guy replacing Larry King who, to be very honest I hardly ever watched. On occasion I used to depending on who he was interviewing. I know King became a kind of iconic figure but I always thought he fawned a lot and just couldn’t get into his program.

So ... Piers Morgan is a Brit who once was an editor of some newspaper here. I don’t think it was a major one .... can’t now recall.  He got canned as I understand it, for publishing something before he had the facts at hand and it caused some kind of bru-haha. Shows ya how interested I am.
He has a column, I guess you can call it a column, in one of the Sunday supplement magazines that come with one of our papers.
Mr. Morgan likes to write about the celebs he encounters.  I met, I spoke to, I had lunch with the fabulous, etc.  I understand he’s a likable chap however. But I wouldn’t know not having ever seen him.  Read him now and again and haven’t a clue why as I’m really not interested in his subject matter. It’s not a personal thing but an age thing. Mine. I’m well past the demographic he writes for.

This is he.  And he is recently married to this doll, who is Telegraph journalist Celia Walden.  I think he also bought her dad’s mansion btw. She is an excellent writer but I mostly read her on occasion cos she’s so damn pretty.

This is Piers and Celia for a Harpers Bazaar spread a while back.

Now it happens boys and girls that Piers is a huge Twitter fan. I know that cos he wrote about it today.  He also mentioned that he wanted to interview a lady I’d never heard of, which won’t surprise you, since I never heard of most of the ppl I run across in the news.  My last pin up girl was Goldie Hawn so all these new ladies are a real treat.  Tho I think Goldie in her prime was sexier simply because she didn’t slap you in the face with her appeal. Oh right. Ann Margaret. Hafta mention her.

OK ... here’s the lady he mentioned in today’s column. He said he tweeted that he would love to have her on his new show in the USA and she saw it and answered him saying yes.  Ain’ the net wonderful?

Be all that as it may .....  I wasn’t even looking for this when I tripped over it on the way to someplace else.

-Piers Morgan the “Obnoxious Brit” to Replace Larry King

At first glance it doesn’t make sense, to replace integrity-driven, iconic Larry King with Piers Morgan. But give it a minute and it all sinks in. The days of truth and integrity are past - oh, they had a good, long run, but Americans have told broadcasters they want something more up-to-date and reflective of these new times on their plate: British sarcasm. Hey, it worked to jump-start American Idol so it might work with “Piers Morgan Tonight”, debuting in January. Sure, Piers has over 20 years of journalism under his belt, but he’s got something else that doesn’t take any experience - it comes with the package as it pops out of the womb: nasty, tacky sarcasm. He’s sure to attack most every guest to step into his show, but unlike Larry King the attacks will not be intellectually driven. Piers will just simply disagree for the sake of disagreeing , and hope it will start a fight with his naive guest and boost ratings. After all, it would be rather boring to watch a reality-based, intellectual interview that while very informative lacked the entertainment value of insult and conflict. Good luck, Piers. We don’t think your show will make it to summer 2011.

Mr. Morgan I am given to understand, makes a point of answering his critics.
If any of you folks happen upon his new show when it starts, drop me a line here and tell me if the critic above had it right.

Check out this adorable full figure blond I just discovered! Her name is Jessica Simpson.

THAT HAUNTS YOU NIGHT AND DAY”

WOW!  There really is a Jessica Simpson.

Not that very many people ever read this far down, but this blog was the creation of Allan Kelly and his friend Vilmar. Vilmar moved on to his own blog some time ago, and Allan ran this place alone until his sudden and unexpected death partway through 2006. We all miss him. A lot. Even though he is gone this site will always still be more than a little bit his. We who are left to carry on the BMEWS tradition owe him a great debt of gratitude, and we hope to be able to pay that back by following his last advice to us all:

1. Keep a firm grasp of Right and Wrong
2. Stay involved with government on every level and don't let those bastards get away with a thing
3. Use every legal means to defend yourself in the event of real internal trouble, and, most importantly:
4. Keep talking to each other, whether here or elsewhere

It's been a long strange trip without you Skipper, but thanks for pointing us in the right direction and giving us a swift kick in the behind to get us going. Keep lookin' down on us, will ya? Thanks.
