Sherri Shepherd Is Really Stupid

January 17, 2008

Some people are too stupid to live, let alone to host a talk show, and Sherri Shepherd seems to be one of those people.

To refresh your memory, this is the chick who said she thought the Earth was flat, and has also insisted that Christianity is older than ancient Greece as well as Judaism.

Now Sherri is an African-American woman, so you’d think she’d know that Patti LaBelle is also African-American, but no:

During yesterday’s talk-around - the first few minutes of “The View” where the show’s co-hosts chat about the news of the day - Shepherd mentioned that over the weekend she had attended the Stellar Awards, an awards show for gospel singers. At the show, she met Shirley Caesar, another legendary singer, often referred to as the First Lady of Gospel Music.

“There is a picture of me with Shirley Caesar, who is like the black Patti LaBelle,” bragged Shepherd.

There was a second of stunned silence before her co-hosts, Whoopi Goldberg, Joy Behar and even Barbara Walters piled on.

“Patti LaBelle is black!” said Golberg.

“But this one is blacker,” joked Behar.

“It’s a good thing you’re not running for office,” said Walters. “Because you’d be considered bigoted right now.”

When Barbara Walters is calling you out I think it’s time to go home.
