As much as I was on the fence about watching another train-wreck, I’m back again for another soul crushing “adventure of a lifetime”. Make no mistake, I’m not so much a fan of Jillian as I am a fan of douchebag guys making asses of themselves in shiny jackets whilst quoting old episodes of Euntorage.
First things first: I don’t really get Jillian, which I recognize is hypocritical since I’m sure a lot of girls don’t “get” me, but it’s my blog so here it goes. I have this theory that there are girls who other girls like and then there’s girls who guys like. I think Jillian is a girl who girls like. I base this on every message board I’ve read in the past three months because they all love her. (These same boards also skew anti-Molly and are divided on Melissa.) She’s cute enough and sometimes she dresses well, but I dislike her stupid hot dog extended analogies, her pairing of boots with short dresses and bikinis and the blathering on about finding her best friend. If it were that important to her, why wasn’t she on Paris Hilton’s show instead of Jason Mesnick’s? Is she really the kind of girl guys go crazy for? And if they do, why aren’t they out there for me? I’m an average petite brunette who has a collection of bandeau top bikinis.
Speaking of Jason, I read some interview with Jillian today where she talked about seeking out his advice on doing this show and how they’re friends. Either that’s something mandated by the ABC Publicity Dsk or she’s a much better person than I. I’ve tried to be friends with my exes but that’s mostly because I’m probably still in love with them. Although I must say that I never had the pleasure of being dumped after an episode of Dancing With the Stars,so maybe that skews your reality a little bit.
Since there’s too many guys to remember at this point, I’ll leave you with this: what was up with the creepy foot guy how goes by the name of Tanner? He reminded me of Buster, the freaky shoe salesman who sold Charlotte discounted strappy sandals in the Season 2 finale of Sex and the City. Only Tanner’s real.
