The Kovacs Perspective

We all say stupid things. I know I have, and I'll probably continue to put my foot deep into my mouth every now and then. I think most of the time when we say really dumb things it's because we jumble up our words by accident. On the other hand, there are those times we say some really stupid stuff and we simply just mean the dumb thing we say. Usually, it's okay though. We are human, far from perfect, and it is okay to be a dumbo every now and then. Celebrities on the other hand, quite often seem to say dumb things regularly, more so than us mere mortals. Is it because they are a little short in the smart department or is it because that they have a spotlight on them all the time. I'm not sure what the answer is but some people in the spotlight sure have said some really ridiculous stuff. In my quest to find something humorous to write about I did some quick research into some wacky things celebrities may have said throughout the years. Enjoy...because it will be sooner than later when we do something similar.

· People hate me because I am a multifaceted, talented, wealthy, internationally famous genius. - Jerry Lewis, comedian

· Whenever I watch TV and see those poor starving kids all over the world, I can't help but cry. I mean I'd love to be skinny like that, but not with all those flies and death and stuff. - Mariah Carey

· Is this chicken, what I have, or is this fish? I know it's tuna, but it says Chicken by the Sea. - Jessica Simpson

· The word genius isn’t applicable in football. A genius is a guy like Norman Einstein.
–Joe Theisman, NFL football quarterback & sports analyst.

· More and more of our imports are coming from overseas.-George W. Bush  

· It isn't pollution that's harming the environment. It's the impurities in our air and water that are doing it.
- Al Gore, Vice President

· Chemistry is a class you take in high school or college, where you figure out two plus two is 10, or something.
- Dennis Rodman, famous NBA Basketball player on chemistry being overrated

· The streets are safe in Philadelphia. It's only the people who make them unsafe.
- Frank Rizzo, ex-police chief and mayor of Philadelphia

· I get to go to lots of overseas places, like Canada.
- Britney Spears, Pop Singer

· You can't just let nature run wild.
- Wally Hickel, former Alaska governor

· It is now 22 minutes past 8:30.
- Lynn Russell, WKAT radio disc jockey

· I don't want to ever, ever do something in life that isn't fun. Ever.-Jennifer Love Hewitt, Actress

· I have no political ambitions for myself or my children.
- Joseph P. Kennedy, 1936

· I'd run over my own mother to win the Super Bowl.
- Joe Jacoby, NFL Football player

· It's like when I buy a horse. I don't want a thick neck and

short legs.
- Mickey Rourke, Actor, describing what he wants in a woman

· I'd rather be dead than singing "Satisfaction" when I am forty-five.
- Mick Jagger, Pop Singer, before he turned 45

· It was not my class of people. There was not a producer, a press agent, a director, an actor.
- Zsa Zsa Gabor, on the jury used for her assault trial

And how about talking to family members. The famous singer Christine Aguilera said something shocking to her grandmother when talking about her style. "My grandma was like: 'Oh, Christina, you look like a whore!' I explained that's the idea." Wow, I bet that made grannies eyes pop out a bit! So, the next time you or I say something really stupid to a friend, co-worker, or a relative as Christina did, at least we know we’re not alone. Let's laugh at ourselves as much as we laugh at others.

Yeah Steve, I suppose we are all guilty of saying some very asinine things at some time in our lives.

Those are hilarious quotes Steve. The most absurd has to be Mariah Carey's. Have you made any memorable slips as a radio host? It must be tough to be in the spotlight as you mentioned. Very funny piece.

Hers is definitely off the charts...Hollyweird.....

Most of my slips have been in real life---just call me lucky!!!!--actually I'd rather do it on the radio but I have done most of my dumbo stuff face to face....

Hi Steve.

Thanks for the fun!

I think my favorite is the second one by Mariah Carey. But Joe Theisman's made me laugh out loud too.

Once while visiting my cousins, their daughter was also visiting them. Their daughter had just completed cosmetology school and gotten a job as a hair stylist. I had been cutting my own hair for a couple of years and had been cutting Bernd's hair ever since we had first married. My cousin told her daughter that I cut my own hair and I piped up with something like, "Yah. It's really not all that hard to do." Bernd gave me this look and then I turned several shades of red. I've said all sorts of dumb stuff, but this is what came to mind just now.

Thanks again for the fun.

Hugs,

Dianne

Yeah Dianne--we all do it, some more than others I guess. The worst ones are when we don't even know we have put our foot in our mouths--ha-ha...

Thanks,

Steve
