For the past couple of days, the radio waves have been burning up over the latest racist rant to come from a celebrity.
Dr. Laura Schlessinger, radio personality for over 30 years, used the N word during a phone call with a listener. Amid her hate speech, she has resigned from her popular radio show.
Over the past couple of months, we've heard Mel Gibson's hateful words flying out of his mouth; his tongue lashing like a hungry bull frog out for a snack.
Show business experts speculate that no matter what the outcome, neither her nor Gibson, will be able to find lucrative work anytime soon.
"The economy is tough enough for everybody, but she just plunked down $500,000 a week ago on a Taco Bell franchise in Tijuana. I told her not to," said James Freenbeen, Dr. Laura's business manager of 6 years. "With everything that is going on in Mexico, it is the worst time to be investing down there. With no immediate cash-flow coming in, she's going to have to do something...clean houses, secretarial work. You just can't say n*gger. It's kind of a deal breaker with show business people."
Mel Gibson is in a similar situation. Gibson is in the midst of a custody battle with his former girlfriend, Oksana Grigorieva. Not to mention, his settlement with his ex-wife, Robyn.
Times are tough for racists, but in a country that loves controversy, and awards it with opportunity, Dr. Laura and Gibson, have found a way back. Whether it be housewives in New Jersey or a family with 20 kids, today's viewers revel in reality.
Bravo has announced its intentions to begin shooting a new reality show in October that will incorporate Gibson's directorial ability and Dr. Laura's love of blacks in a new talent show, America's Got Schvatzas!"
Jacob Greenpenis, the show's executive producer said, "This is great! We are so excited about the show. You can sense the conflict in the air. Do you like the name, "Schvatza?" I learned that from my 91-year-old Yiddish grandmother. I think it means dark person. She's a little meschugge.
Greenpenis hinted at having an episode in which Gibson and Dr. Laura will be provided with lots of alcohol."We just really want to get them sh*tfaced and watch them throw racist rants at the camera for an hour," said Greenpenis.
So if you are not doing anything on Wednesday nights at 10 p.m., starting in June, be sure to check out "America's Got Schvatzas" on Bravo.
