LL Cool J Distances Himself From Fox News, Sarah Palin (Update: Fox Responds)

Well this is an interesting twist – actor/musician LL Cool J, who is one of the celebrities who will be part of Sarah Palin’s Thursday show (and is in the promo), isn’t happy about the ‘misrepresentation.’

He is reacting on Twitter – but is he ‘misrepresenting’ the circumstances as well?

Do me a favor. Start this video now – it will provide the soundtrack to the rest of the post:

Ok, we’re good? Now let’s get started.

So Palin’s special on Thursday at 10pmET is called Real American Stories (here’s a preview), and although it is the premiere episode, the concept of “Real American Stories” is not new for Fox News. It began as a website back in July 2008 – a website, it is important to note, that is owned by Fox News.

"Oh, the other thing I noticed is his walk. If he grew up a “country” boy, he would have a country boy walk... he has a city boy walk."

He talks a little to "LA", as well. Certainly doesn't sound like someone who was raised in east KY. But, I'm a fan of Olyphant from his days on Deadwood, so I'll give him a pass.

I miss Kate. We still wonder why she left the show. ;(

I read somewhere that she got married and wanted to spend more time with her family.

His Kanye West moment.

Only now people no longer hesitate to call Kanye a douchebag.

They have been playing his movies on FX; he was the bad guy in that last Die Hard movie, and Hitman. Looking at IMDB, looks like his career is starting to take off. I think I can catch Deadwood on one of the Directv channels, not HBO.

LOL! The DemoPervs made LL Cool J punk out of the interview!

So much for *you* being a man, LL.
