Dumped by Jesse's Girl

It's Friday night. I'm watching ABC. Instead of Sarah Rue and Kelly Ripa boring me to death, I'm watching the Daytime Emmy awards. Why? Penance. That's the only rational explanation.

But because you have a life and aren't watching it you missed the great event of the day! Rick Springfield was chosen for the opening number. I'm not even trying to think of why. Clearly the producers thought people were fans. They aren't.

He started playing on Hollywood Blvd, and decided to spice things up by moving into the Kodak Theatre. As he walked down the aisle, he held out his mic for audience members to sing along... except they couldn't because who knows any Rick Springfield song besides Jesse's Girl? He tried three times with no success before giving it up and singing his own song.

This is the worst awards show ever! On the upside, the first award went to Ellen Degeneres.
