Geographic Fail!

Well, not much to amuse me about the US election results.

But we can still count on the chance to laugh at the witless utterings of celebrities. Here’s noted zoologist Rosario Dawson holding forth on the natural world:
Q: Any more travel plans?

A: I want to go to Antarctica and on safari in Africa. I’m just hoping the polar bears and giraffes won’t be extinct by the time I get there.

  1. With a bit of luck she'll see the aurora borealis. Do they have penguins in the Antarctic too?

  2. Lol!

    I wouldn't be surprised if she thought she'd see the giraffes there...

  3. Apparently the following was a spoof, but when something rings as true as this, it deserves to be preserved in the pantheon of celebrity idiocy.

  4. It's getting harder and harder to tell the spoofs from real life, though...;)

  5. It's almost as if being pretty and reading lines isn't the intellectually formidable achievement I had always assumed. Perhaps it is a mistake to rely on the thespians for deep insightful thinking.
