Slog - Comments on Remember What I Told You... http://slog.thestranger.com/2008/01/remember_what_i_told_you about the mind-boggling fiasco that was Queen Latifah's hosting of an audience-free People's Choice Awards? I wasn't kidding. Here's a short video sampler, rich in scatty goodness. The last bit is my favorite. Not only does she think we're hungry to hear those two weird notes one last time, she hilariously assumes she'll be hosting the awards—or doing anything in public—next year. (Extra mind-boggling punchline: Last night, the Golden Globe for Best Actress in a miniseries or movie went to....Queen Latifah, for her work as an HIV-positive wife and mother in HBO's Life Support. Well shut my mouth.)...

She was just trying to be silly. I'd like to see any of you host an awards show that is already lame as hell to begin with when there ARE writers and an audience to deliver to.

I vote the Golden Globes "ceremony" last night way more heinous.

Someone please explain that to me or is CBS trying some Faux news bull?

I just hate Billy Bush and Nancy O'Dell so much.

But after watching Latifah, I had to admire their ability to get the job done with a minimum of existential agony for the viewer.
