Is Kellie Pickler Smarter Than A 5th Grader's Hamster?

Nope! There's something sort of great about this vid of Kellie Pickler's turn on Jeff Foxworthy's contribution to the zombification of our nation's television viewing public. Maybe it's the YouTube uploader's tags ("very american stupid funny ignorant blonde bitch"). Or that the words "American" and "idol" will forever be associated with her ignorant ass. She's asked "Budapest is the capital of what country?" Hilarity ensues!

We can't fault our educational system; the kid at least seems to know Europe's not a country. So instead of pleading with our teachers, we direct our lobby at the AMPTP. Please, studios. Give the writers what they want. Or else we'll just get increasing amounts of that -- and increasing amounts of this.

That was a pretty funny video but it's nowhere near as funny as the guy who called up Jimmy Dean Sausage to complain about their 12 oz sausage tube. Randy Taylor is mad as hell and he's not going to take it anymore...

That whole 'Pickler bein' all dumb' thing? C'mon, it's all an act, it's gotta be.

Right? Right??

This is the first time I've ever sympathized with Jeff Foxworthy.

Yikes. I'm saying that's no act. Look in the eyes, vacuous glassy holes.

are you serious? this show is totally fake. the only people that watch it are those doubting their intelligence or people trying to make themselves feel better for living in a city.

There's no way this is a joke as she's too dumb to play dumb. Also I'm foreseeing a job at Fox News for her in the future. Perhaps "Fox's Weekly World Wrap Up" where she spends 80% of the show trying to pronounce the names of different countries and if they're real or not and never gets to reading any actual news.

If you're going to mock Kellie Pickler for being dumb (and she truly, truly deserves that), you should spell her name correctly.

I see why her mother abandoned her.

as sexist as foxworthy's comment is (women just want to hear their opinions in a deeper voice, that's why they ask a man), it's fucking hilarious. the audience can boo all it wants.

I can't laugh at this, I can cry at it.
I guess I just wasn't made for these times.

In this informationn age, to see a grown woman who's not sure whether or not France is a country is shocking. On the other hand, she relates very nicely with that kid, which made me like her.

After careful consideration, I have decided not to destroy your planet.

Foxworthy's a redneck AND a misogynist? Wow. Never expecting those two sexy traits to go together!

Men have a lot to do with how some women remain that uneducated. If you your tits are going well, and you can get your hair that sparkly shade of blonde, they will fuck you and give you things for the rest of your life. You will not need to educate yourself.

The perplexing part is men get angry after being unable to REASON or have a RATIONAL CONVERSATION with these money guzzling, shiny toy/pet/trophies that they have committed themselves to entertaining for some consistent snatch.

"If you your tits are going well, and you can get your hair that sparkly shade of blonde, they will fuck you and give you things for the rest of your life."

Correction... for the rest of your twenties.

Only a handful of chicks make it to the big leagues and get a lifelong payday out of their looks. Most hit the wall well before age 30 and go on broke, stupid and ugly.

Blame your parents if you're ugly. Blame yourself if you're stupid. Don't blame "men" for either.

What drives me up the wall about morons like this (well, a lot of things. Bush is still pres., no?) is that they seem to feel entitled to their ignorance. "WTF, you expect me to know if France is a country or not. Your're stupid!"
Oh, one more thing. "You tricked me!" No shit, Sherlock.

Are any of you losers who are trashing Miss Pickler making up to six or seven figure incomes as she probably is? Dumb must pay!

Did this lady make it out of elementary school? If so, her teachers need their collective asses kicked. What, exactly, IS taught in American class rooms?...."Four score and seven years ago........and.......I pledge allegience to the flag ......." Yup, that about sums it up. Kelly is cute and funny, but dumber than a post.
