Staying abreast of the news

Caution: Juvenile humor ahead.

Did you hear about Jessica Simpson's breakdown at the big shindig to honor Dolly Parton in Washington, D.C. over the weekend? Apparently, she forgot the words to Parton's 9 To 5 and ran off the stage in tears.

But that's not what caught the Herald Sun's attention. The Australian newspaper was focused instead on Simpson's and Parton's visit to the White House, and, specifically, their respective décolletages.

The pop-star gave music industry veteran Dolly Parton - who arrived surprisingly covered-up - a run for her money in the cleavage department.

The pair were invited for the Kennedy Center Honors, of which Parton was an honoree.

They really need to beef up their copy editing department. I'm pretty sure that last sentence was meant to read The pairs were invited for the Kennedy Center Honors, of which Parton was an honoree.

You should have been a tabloid journalist. ;-)

Ha. None of the tabloids I read ever use the word "décolletage." ;-)

I saw this (and the post summary) in bloglines and also noticed that there were TWO new entries to read here.

Very exciting.

And I should say that this was an absolutely amazing pair of posts.

And the double entendres just keep on coming...

Yes, well, both Dolly and Simpson have been known for their boobish behavior.

Heh. Beth, I clicked on the link you provided, and while I wasn't particularly edified by the main content, one of the sponsored links that appeared was hilarious: www.headlightsareforcars.com. Unfortunately, even I can't get away with posting anything about it.

You know, because Jimmy's watching...
