This has got to be seen to be believed. Even then, you may not believe it.

I'm speechless. What was with the choreography?!
By the way, PJ, how do you go about finding these things? Is it just accidental!
The comments following the clip were funny, too.

I have friends who trade these links.
Then you can "subscribe" to the people who post videos you like and YouTube alerts you whenever they post new videos. A few of the videos I've digitized from my old VHS tapes were rare enough to earn me subscribers, like my Edwin Drood Tony medley, my Dorothy Loudon "Vodka" and my Carol Haney/Bob Fosse "I Love a Piano."
But this delightful old Debbie Reynolds monstrosity sure takes your mind off the sub-zero temperatures!
I just watched it again and I still can't believe no one said, "Um, Deb..."
Poor Carrie Fisher...

Thank you, Mamie. I wanted to be Mary Travers when I was young.
(JohnBoy, I am glad you had a laff.)

Posted: 2/11/08 at 8:39pmMe too! I used to practice throwing my hair back while singing. (Probably why I have a ruptured disk there now...)

Posted: 2/11/08 at 8:40pmIn retrospect, Debbie is probably thinking that it seemed like a good idea at the time!

"thinking that it seemed like a good idea at the time!"
Isn't that what everyone does?

Debbie probably STILL thinks it's a good idea.
Poorr, poor, POOR Carrie Fisher.

"Love between all your sisters!" You know she meant that! Oh Debbie. I still love ya!
And please, PJ, without a mother to blame for all her problems, Carrie Fisher wouldn't have had a career.

I think Carrie Fisher is a genuine wit. Am I alone?
DO I HAVE A WITNESS?

I hate watching Carrie Fisher in interviews and such. She comes across so important. Like, "Look at me! I'm Carrie Fisher!"
Yeah, Carrie, you were in 3 movies like 30 years and you wrote one screenplay that was probably raped during rewrites.
That doesn't make you a star. Get off your high horse.

Posted: 2/12/08 at 12:18amI don't dislike Carrie Fisher, but she's NO Debbie Reynolds. And I know what you mean about her coming off like she thinks she really knows something. Yet, when she was hosting The Essentials on TCM, she and Robert Osborne were discussing My Fair Lady, and the Oscars for that year. She didn't seem to know that Julie Andrews won the year that MFL did, and her mother was a co-nominee in the same categoy! I found that odd, to say the least. She can be amusing, though.
