Celebs Ignore Death, Poverty on MTV Enviro Series

My wife and I watch about 10 minutes of this show and it was embarrassing. I don't think these celebrities and hangers-on realize how moronic they are.

Cameron Diaz and Drew Barrymore

For some reason I don't think they'll be bringing the potato salad to the Mensa picnic.

[Aleighanne]

I would love to see a new reality show where these stars would have to leave like real people in the U.S. do instead of traveling overseas...

[randog]

The MTV series features actress Cameron Diaz and a rotating crew of "her close, personal friends [who] think globally and act globally."

I thought it was "think globally and act locally"? Is the liberal answer to my question, "whatever"?

[wideawake]

For some reason I don't think they'll be bringing the potato salad to the Mensa picnic.

Wait . . . like . . . I totally don't get it . . .

[dfwgator]

I think most people's reaction would be like Cartman's on South Park, "It smells like a$$ here."

[WinOne4TheGipper]

Hollywood Lftist Ping!!!

Please FReepmail me if you want on/off this ping list.

I've got to do this more often.

[Odyssey-x]

The public face of eco-imperialism. Anyone see that National Geographic where they went to Rawanda to capture an alligator that had eaten upwards of 20 villagers? The American host of the show caught it then put it in a box so they could ship it to a nature refuge. He didn't even tie it up so it would be "comfortable". The alligator escaped that night and the host gave a quick "sorry" to the villagers and then left.

Barrymore, apparently enthralled by the lack of a modern sanitary facilities, gleefully bragged, "I took a poo in the woods hunched over like an animal. It was awesome."

We can expect a replay in her next flick.

[WinOne4TheGipper]

Make that Leftist...

[randog]

LOL!!

Is Drew Barrymore still a somebody or is this a last, desperate gasp on the part of her agent? I thought her career completely flushed with Tom Green's.

[RushCrush]

I watched the show and thought it was satire. Especially when I saw Eva Mendes crying.

[frogjerk]

"I took a poo in the woods hunched over like an animal. It was awesome."

The act or the result?

[Spok]

"It's kinda gotten out of hand how much convenience we think we need," she said."

She would know. This ignorant broad's whole existence has become a blond joke.

[dfwgator]

Eric Cartman: Oh my God, it smells like ass out here.
Miss Stevens: Alright, that does it. Eric Cartman, you respect other cultures this instant.
Eric Cartman: I wasn't saying anything about their culture, I was just saying their city smells like ass.
Miss Stevens: You may think that making fun of third-world countries is funny but let me...
Eric Cartman: I don't think it's funny. This place is overcrowded, smelly and poor. That's not funny, that sucks.

[goldstategop]

Rich liberals would make more sense if they gave up their wealth and took a monastic lifestyle of poverty and service to God. Flying in on jets and making a documentary about "primitives" in the Third World strikes me as hypocrisy of the worst sort. They don't want these people to have the same standard of living people have attained in the West. Hey, we need to keep people backward to show how wretched the world is. Liberal philosophy is not admirable in its contempt for human beings.

(Denny Crane: "Sometimes you can only look for answers from God and failing that... and Fox News".)

More like Thinking globally, Dumping globally.

I've gone on a number of wilderness canoe trips and hikes where sanitation consisted of a roll of toilet paper and a trench shovel, or similarly luxurious facilities. Even a really rank outhouse looks good after doing it naturally in the woods for a few days. The really neat thing is doing it naturally with clouds of mosquitoes and black flies going for one's nether regions.

Lovely young Drew, the Queeen of Natural Poo, conveniently managed to forget what happens when a whole village of people do it that way, the resulting clouds of septic flies, and the inevitable, preventable diseases. She and her comrades seem to view third world people as quaint zoo specimens to preserve in their squalor and poverty so the "better and more beautiful" people may go and view them.

Ah, our little modern day aristocrats are going on about the Noble Savage again, are they?
