Filed under: Sideshow Candy
Welcome to the premiere of “Sideshow Candy,” a re-branded version of my video blog lampooning celebrity antics. While this episode is longer and chock full of goodies, the rest of the shows will be in a shorter, twice-weekly(ish) format. But still full o’ goodies. Hopefully.
This week’s highlights: Jessica Simpson is a hit in Ukraine; Kirstie Alley hits out at the tabloids; and Gary Busey take a hit off of something before attending the Oscars.

Used to quite like these websites, but you guys are trying way too hard… unfortunately, sometimes one & one just about scrapes a modest one and a half… shame.

Ah yes, I imagine Papa Joe is dying to share his impressions of the topless pics. “Jessica only has one freckle — on the side of her left boob — which is why she would have made a better Marilyn.”
also, the way you open those envelopes makes me laugh.

Great new episode! Not sure if I like Candy the Magnificent or Movie Critic Candy better.
Damn, that is one big cat.

Is this the same candy as holy candy?Why do you need a video of gossip, just write about it on your blog. I agree, you are trying too hard.

I’ve had a video blog for almost a year. But thanks for your “constructive” feedback. Maybe you should switch from Pepsi to wine, and chill a bit.
With much love,
Candy

So f**king funny!
Critics schmitics, Candy and 14 are fab together! Love that Bollywood music playing in the background of Candice the magnificent’s bit, and was that Las Vegas as the backdrop?

Jane — It’s actually Hollywood and Highland here in Los Angeles, believe it or not. But now I have a hankering for the roulette table!
Librarian Kathleen — Welcome! Good to see you made it to the community. Many more bloopers where they came from.

Your new video looks great!!!
As for your critics??? Well, they need to know…the internet has replaced the tv as the number one watched audo/visual medium for teens and twenty somethings. As well, increasingly, other ages. Ask the average young person: Do you spend more time watching television or watching videos and other media on your computer??? They all say…to a person, no matter what the gender, or color…”I hardly watch television!!! What kind of question is that??? I spend most, if all of my time on the computer, blogging, texting, and watching videos, tv shows, movies via the internet. That is where I get most of my news and pop culture information from!!!
Let me tell you, the next Barbara Walters or Mary Hart are not coming from network tv news, tv syndication or cable television, etc. No…she is going to be an internet video blogging star…just mark my words!!!

Well done, Candy! Despite the unnecessary rudeness of Larry Cooke and Pepsiblogger, I think your video blog is even better than before. The addition of bloopers at the end was fun. Your backdrops are great (isn’t 14 just fabulous?). Your writing is clever and light-hearted, as usual. You’ve got the balls to put yourself out there, something few of us (particularly the critics) would ever do. Bravo, and keep up the great work.

Wonderful as always Candy! I was upset when I first logged on and saw that the video wasn’t available. But, my horror was relieved. Great piece!
