Youtube Video of Kellie Pickler Embarrassing Herself on TV



I was most definitely not a fan of Kellie Pickler when she appeared on Season 5 of American Idol. I was underwhelmed by her singing voice, and quickly grew tired of her "ditzy blonde" shtick. But, in the past year or so, as she has toned down the stupid act, shown some real emotion (weeping as she sang "I Wonder," about her estranged mother, in various performances of that song) and begun to gain some credibility as a country musician (including picking up a few award nominations), I've actually become quite fond of her.

Then she has to go and do something like this.

Watch the video above of Kellie appearing on the Fox television show Are You Smarter Than a Fifth Grader?, and try not to cringe. She tries to play off her absolutely inane comments by pouring on the charm, but, unfortunately, her dense-ness doesn't appear to be an act.

Maybe stick to singing, Kel?

Doesn't say much for our education system, does it. . . 8^(

Saw Kellie in concert with Terry Clark this summer - she's improved tremendously since her stint on Idol, and she's very personable on stage, interacting a lot with the audience. She's also very funny, quick-witted, and not afraid to poke fun at herself.
