GOODY TWO SHOES: Al Gore’s Global Warming Lecture Has Chilling Effect On MTV Video Music Awards
The Associated Press review of the annual MTV extravaganza that has devolved to become as influential to trend-setting music as "Saturday Night Live" is to cutting edge comedy, is pretty devastating:
When a wooden politician delivers the best line of the MTV Music Video Awards, you know the thrill is gone.
So was the decadence, outrageousness and spontaneity that used to make the VMAs such a guilty pleasure.
The wooden politician in question? None other than Al Gore, who took the opportunity to confirm – for the umpteenth time - what a buzzkill he is by lecturing the attendees on global warming:
Fans watch for the FCC-flaunting skits, nearly naked starlets, foul-mouthed speeches and those embarrassingly bad dance numbers.
They do NOT watch for lectures from former Vice President Al Gore on global warming. When does the phrase "here's a photo of a glacier melting" ever fit into an awards show?
The Stiletto would have to guess: never. But the supposedly planet-saving rules, regulations and privations that Gore wants to impose on the rest of us don’t seem to ever fit his lifestyle, either. He should save all that hot air he expels jet-setting around the country and use it to heat his palatial homes.
