Unless you are living under a rock, you probably know that Whoopi Goldberg just started as the new moderator on The View. I found her debut on Tues. to be rather boring, but nevertheless, still consider a seat on that panel to be my dream job. Here’s why:
1. I have always wanted to be on TV. Franlky, I’m shocked that I don’t have my own show by now. I don’t really want to be an actress, but a talk show is right up my alley (I would also settle for hosting a design show on HGTV).
2. I am very opinionated, as I have an opinion on just about everything, and would love to share my opinions with the world!
3. Everytime I watch that show, I am always screaming at the TV (ok, not literally SCREAMING, more thinking quietly in my head) about things that I would say if I were there.
4. One of the downsides of my current job is that I am on my feet all day. I don’t really mind being on my feet all day, except that it means that I have to wear comfortable shoes. It is a challenge to find comfortable shoes that are also stylish, and this is a MAJOR dilemma for a shoe lover such as myself. If I was a co-host on The View, I could wear the cutest shoes around, with no consideration for season, comfort, or heel-height. AND millions of people would see me wearing my cute shoes on national television.
5. Sometimes Elisabeth Hasselback really pisses me off (and by sometimes, I mean a lot). As the resident “conservative/christian/young/blonde” voice on the show, I think she comes across as an idiot. A lot of the things she says are down right rediculous, and the times that she does bring up a decent point, she is completely incompetant at articulating them in an intelligent manor. As most of you know, I am also “conservative/christian/young/blonde” and I feel that I could hang with the crazy ladies that are on that show!
6. Barbara Walters is old. (I know this is not really a reason why I should be on The View, but more a reason why she shouldn’t.)
In conclusion, I think the hours, pay, and exposure would be great (the weather sucks in NY, but I wouls just have to deal.) Please comment with other reasons why you think I should be a host on The View.
Thank you.
I dont think you should be the co-host—Who would do my hair???????
#5 is the most compelling. The Christians on TV usually lack the IQ points of their counterpart – a way of “representing” Christians, but in an unbalanced way.
Don’t dis the Babs! I love her!!
If you ever get the job, can we be best friends so I can come on during “Best Friends” week??
