So, Miss New Jersey and the scandal of someone trying to blackmail her with “scandalous/racy” pictures.  Oh noes.  What ever is the world coming to?  Caught her on the Today show this morning while I was getting ready to head out the door.  She decided to do an interview and, for the first time, reveal the “scandalous” pictures in all their glory.  They included a spread eagle jeans-covered crotch shot in a limo and some dude grabbing her boobs from behind.  “He’s my boyfriend,” she explained, “and the picture was meant to be private.  Nobody was supposed to see them.”

First of all, Miss NJ, babe, listen.  You posted these pictures on Facebook, hon.  The internet is not private.  Shaddup.  What are you complaining about?  Let this be a lesson. 

Second, the interview horrified me this morning, and I could only stomach 5 minutes of it, at most.  One by one, she went through the pictures and described what the situation was about, why she was posed like that, etc.  How horrifying would that be?  Think of all the pictures of you, the really silly/buzzed/strange pictures of you.  Thinking about it?  Good. Now, imagine having to explain them on national television, at 7:30 in the morning. 

For example:

Explain.
