Antonio Sabato Jr. Accidentally Kills 'Celebrity Circus' Partner In Contortion Bloodbath
Posted by Seth at 6:00 AM on June 20, 2008
OK, so that didn't happen. But were you going to watch this video if we billed it as "Antonio Sabato Jr. recreates some of the most famous hood ornaments of all time on NBC's ghetto, circus-themed reality experiment?" Every time we tune into Celebrity Circus, we feel like something really awkward and sad just happened the second before—like that weird French contortionist judge lady just broke the news to Rachel Hunter she has trapeze cancer or something. Everyone's always crying and looking down at the floor and snapping at each other. Then they cut to a training video, and Stacey Dash is sliding into an MRI machine and her Hammock of Death partner is standing in a hospital waiting room, tensely explaining that things don't look good. You get the point. This is not fun! This is nothing like a circus! These Z-list celebrities clearly don't want to be there. Would you really want to told by a panel of circus freaks that you failed to maintain a convincing smile while roting 360 degrees in a little-person gyroscope? Let's face it—this was a terrible idea.

How Do I tell Stacey Dash that I love her

You tricked me, Seth. I just hope it was worth the page views, because I'll never get those 2 minutes back. I kept waiting for him to drop her. I'll continue to wait.

WTF? Is that Joey Fatone? I'm not sure this show could POSSIBLY be any worse.

The other day my sister and I were watching some channel that only comes with a digital cable package and we say the Clueless TV show (yes, Clueless was made into a TV show). She aptly noted "poor Stacey Dash, whatever happened to her."
The next day I accidentally turned on Celebrity Circus and all I could think was, "poor Stacey Dash..."

You're right, Seth. That was wildly unentertaining. I feel pity, a bit cross, and a little depressed.

Boo-yeah: Another N'Sync alum goes big time! Now, if only they'd greenlight my script for "Bad Boys 3" I could get the boozed-up "bad ass" with the braids attached!

yeah, that video was pretty painful. it was like watching a wrestling match in an old folk's home. except slower. and more boring.

God, I'm sorry guys. It's 140 degrees in here and if I can't be cool then I guess tricking people into clicking a completely unremarkable Celebrity Circus video is the next best thing.

@Seth: Damn you, Seth. I still love you and all, but damn you...Damn you to hell.
And you must know that hell is "Celebrity Circus" on a continuous loop.
(Too easy? Whatevuh. Hell, it's hot here, too.)
