Off my soapbox and back to my lighthearted blog today.
I totally stole this from the lovely and creative Kira Joy of Never Full Skeletons, Only Fragments.(see what I mean by creative?) Her idea was a celebrity tea party, but we all know if they don't agree to a drink, the whole thing will never work out between us.
So here's my Celebrity Happy Hour guest list. I'll be sending out the evites soon.
The first invitation goes to Trisha Yearwood because she will be catering as well. Did you see her on theView? This is what made me love her. My favorite quote "sometimes you gotta eat a plate of ribs then the next day eat like a grape."
Really I'd like to invite all the women of the View. I don't necessarily agree with them all, you all know who I'm talking about. But I find their group conversations interesting, and they will guarantee no awkward silences. And the idea of getting Elisabeth Hasslebeck drunk, hilarious!
Next up is Leah Remini. I never watched King of Queens but she is hilarious on In the Motherhood if you have not yet clicked on this link on my sidebar, click here, go now, we'll wait. Okay so today she was on Rachel Ray (whom I don't enjoy and would not invite, too perky). She agreed to let them video her life with her totally spoiled child, and it was like a bad episode of Super Nanny. But she totally redeemed herself as she admited whole heartedly "we suck as parents" I kind of love her for her honesty.
And on In the Motherhood with Leah is my girl crush Jenny McCarthy. She's gorgeous, yet goofy and funny. One of those people you wish you could hate, except she's so damn nice.
Drew Barrymore is one of those women, so clearly happy with herself, just the way she is. She's smart and cute and very down to earth. Have you seen "My Date with Drew"? She's genuinely a nice person despite her celebrity status.
Rosie O'Donnell and of course Kelly are invited. And they can bring all their kiddos to play with my kids, that way us mommies can enjoy the party more. I big pink puffy heart Rosie, she's a strong woman not afraid to speak her mind. And she's a hoot!
Last but not least are Ellen Degeneres and Portia deRossi because I think they are such a cute couple. And Ellen is one funny woman. Oh and Ellen will be in charge of inviting a musical guest for us also.
Of course I'd also invite Drama, and Twinkle's mom and all my other stalkers... um readers.
So who's coming to your imaginary party? Girl crushes? Common' you know you have them!
I like your list. I love the View. It would actually be nice to get Elisabeth drunk and remove the stick from up her . . .
I'd invite Meredith Vierra, too.

Nice list...I love that you included couples (why didn't I say Portia? Have you seen "Arrested Development"?...I love her in that show!) and Leah Remini (The Motherhood cracks me up! And it has totally rekindled my secret love affair with Jenny).
Love you list...I say we combine parties!

Oooh, me me! I want to come to your party. I feel exactly the same about Jenny; it's a weird combination of joy & anger.
I might have to do this on my blog...Stay tuned.

Can I come? I just want to look at the ladies. I'll serve the drinks so I am semi-useful.
I know, I'm a pig...

Um... THANKS. Now I have something ELSE to distract me from doing all the things I'm supposed to be doing. I'll be watching In The Motherhood instead.

Seeing as I borrowed this idea from Kira Joy everyone feel free to keep borrowing, I think it's a fun one.
As for Chelsea Handler, I like her in some things, don't enjoy her in others. I think she'd hog the spotlight.
Lana, I would feel not worthy if Angelina were invited.
Stu, if you promise to be nice I think we can arrange a nice gig as bartender.
Domestic Spaz, YOU ARE WELCOME!

You have to watch some King of Queens re-runs. Leah was hilarious on that show. I was sad when it went off. This sounds like a fun par-tay you're planning.
