This is a cute one and I am sharing it with you all, not because it is remotely newsorthy, but because it made me want to cuddle Larry King.
We all know that all the stick thin, over-bleached hags in the charts are all starting to look the same and blur into one less-interesting version of Lady GaGa. Seems that we are not the only ones who have noticed that bleached hair, red lips and 50’s style vamp looks are par for the course. The pop starlet uniform has led to the 75-year-old host of Larry King Live getting a little confused over two particular chart-toppers.
Gwen had dropped by [Nate n’ Ali’s Deli in Los Angeles earlier this month] to pick up an order of four corned beef sandwiches to go when Larry — who released a new memoir last week– approached her, told her his son was a very big fan and asked for an autograph.
“Gwen happily signed her name on a napkin promising the TV talker she’d send his boy a photo in the mail,” according to the June 1 issue of The Globe. “But when she went to hand it over, Larry looked puzzled before finally admitting, ‘I thought you were Christina Aguilera.’” (via Pop Crunch)
Ouch! I can see why he could mistake ‘em, he probably needs to update his prescription.
That had to sting, but at least Gwenny is humble enough not to be a pissy diva about it
That’s funny. I wouldn’t put it past Larry King to do that on purpose just to try to piss her off.
Really? I thought he was nicer than that
well, Larry King is like what…200? i’m surprised he didn’t mistake her for someone that actually was around in that era like Marilyn or someone.
Gotta feel sorry for Gwen, though. That had to be a blow to her ego, y’know?
I actually think Gwen is light on ego and I’m glad it was her and not someone who would have topped themselves by now.
