Now say that in your best Southern drawl. And keep it up while you read this post.
I just got me back from the premiere of Dukes of Hazzard (courtesy of RocKat's buddy who works for one of them there radio stations). Doooo-Jesus*! I laughed till my sides damn near split in pieces**. It was so darn awful it was actually good. It was some of the darndest acting I've ever seen***, but so tongue-in-cheek that you couldn't help but love it. Wonder Woman (Lynda Carter) out-acts even Burt Reynolds... and that pains me to say****, cos I love Burt.
In case y'all***** need an example, here's a shiny bright one from that future Oscar and Nobel prize winner Jessica Simpson (aka Daisy Duke):
"You know what's gonna happen. They're gonna get caught and get thrown in jail. Then I'm gonna have to shake my ass at somebody to get them out."
That was about her longest line. And you couldn't help but giggle at it, bless her. Stick to recording remakes of other people's songs Jess... purty please. Or you'll end up like Lynda Carter doin stupid cameos. Oh gosh darn it******, you're right. That's what you did in this movie.
OK. Y'all can drop the accent now.
Willie Nelson sat there telling jokes, drinking moonshine and smoking "baccy". You could just tell he was off his chops and loving every second of it. And he got to sing the theme song. He can't beat Waylon, but he wasn't bad. I wouldn't mind having a crack at that song... I reckon I'd do a pretty good job of it.
But by far the most entertaining part of the evening was the number of B-list celebrities my friends and I spotted. Lefty Tim, Casey from Idol, Annalise whats-her-face and most of the Home & Away cast. If I'd looked closer I probably would have spotted a Logan twin, Andrew G and the Keating kids.
Oh and the Jackass himself, Johnny Knoxville. Who hasn't slept since he got off the plane yesterday, freely admitted he was f###ed off his nut when interviewed on Sunrise this morning and has probably taken more drugs and shagged more women in the past day than Kochie has in a lifetime. You go Luke Duke.
They took my pic as I walked down the red carpet. Without any clue as to who I was or if I was important. When I was in my cruddy work clothes and not wearing any makeup. Awwww shucks.
Y'all come back now, y'hear?
