From the cutting room floor, ABC News, continued:
20/20’s Barbara Walters: “In a recent MTV ‘Choose or Lose’ appearance, your husband said, quote, ‘I’m fascinated by rap and hip-hop. I think there’s a lot of poetry in it. There’s a lot of anger. A lot of social energy in it –‘”
Teresa Heinz Kerry: “Fo’ shizzle, my nizzle. Eb’body know JFK all Opie on the blunt.”
Barbara Walters: “– indeed. But given your background, Teresa, you understand how people of my generation might…question… the sincerity of your enthusiasm for urban youth culture — “
Teresa Heinz Kerry: “Sheeeyit, B. I have traveled the very fabric of time itself to call you a cracker.”
Barbara Walters: “– you’ve lost me, I’m afraid –“
Teresa Heinz Kerry: “– I’m Rick James, bitch!”
I can’t believe “I’m Rick James, bitch!” has become some sort of pop-culture phenomenon.
I also can’t believe that I still laugh at it. It’s the visual, I think.
Bitch!
Yeah. I thought the Prince/basketball/pancake story was freakin’ hilarious, too.
Hell, if Beanie Babies can catch on…
Jeff,
You seem to be breaking the 1st rule of Fight Club on a regular basis these days.
I know, it’s sad. But once the weather gets nice…well, I just don’t want to get people’s hopes up.
