Connie Chung drunk and singing on a piano

We are back in America after almost a year away, and we have to say that you people are totally spoiled! We miss 24 hour grocery stores, shopping on Sundays, and driving around like maniacs. Switzerland is much more relaxing, clean, and safe, but it’s totally boring compared to America, and there are hardly any trashy TV shows. There’s a lot of stress here, though, I forgot about that, and you must need a break from it all. I will do my best to make your celebrity vacation as gossip-filled and snarky as possible. Thanks to everyone who commented here and added us as friends on MySpace during our brief vacation.

So here’s Connie Chung totally wasted and singing on a piano.

She was saying goodbye to the show you’ve never heard of that she hosted weekday mornings on MSNBC with her creepy ex-husband, Maury Povich:

“Weekends with Maury & Connie” — a half-hour program in which the two hosts sought to comment on the news through analysis, point-counter-point and humor — was at least partly intended to counter the conventional wisdom about each of them, she said. “It showed Maury was a thinker, a reader, an intelligent news person,” Ms. Chung said. “It showed, on my side, that I can have as much fun as anyone.”

The show, which was broadcast for six months, on Saturday mornings at 10 (and rebroadcast throughout the weekend), never caught on with viewers, drawing an average audience of slightly more than 200,000 on Saturday mornings. The cable channel quietly noted its demise earlier this month.

Chung says the act was a “gag” and that she “should have had a drink before I went on.” She meant to say “I should have had another drink before I went on, maybe I would have blacked out and forgot about it.”

    Yeah…that performance was…frightening. My boyfriend insisted on playing it for me because he thought it was funny, and after about thirty seconds, my ears were bleeding, my eyes were imploding, and I was screaming for him to Just Make It Stop!!!

    The funniest thing about this is the piano player.Why is he pretending to plat? It’s probably a gag piano and he goes home to his gag spouse

    yeah I have to admit it made me cringe when I watched it and I could not sit there for the whole thing without multitasking.

    Creepy Husband (Maury) is sooooo not near what that freak of a man is! He needs to be locked up!
    He gathers the dregs of society, to embarass themselves amd their innocent babies on his F*cking cheesy show. I feel so bad for those BABIES he exploits…these children have the legacy of being “innocents” on a show, protraying their mothers who have to have numerous fathers tested for rights of “being”
    Can you imagine being one of those babies 18 years from now??? Knowing that you had no choice in the matter….and your Mother brought you to Maury, wondering if 1 of 8 men might be your father??? And your pathetic little face was splashed all over the country to see how pathetic your life is already starting? Maury acts likes hes helping these poor simple folks…yet, we all know hes exploiting the sterotype…”po ass ho’s” and thier “po ass kids”…so sad. He should be ashamed of himself. If I were one of those babies that actually grew to be sucessful…I would be mortified to know that that F*cking freak plastered my poor innocent face all over Television, and claimed my mom a whore, and it took 10 DNA tests to prove it…I think I would want to kill myself, Wgat a true F*uk Face he is…and that pervert will find redemption in the after life…hes ruined numerous lives…he needs help
