Youngest 'Brady Bunch' Daughter Goes From Curls to Hurls In Doomed Radio Chat
Posted by Defamer Hollywood at 2:20 AM on July 9, 2008
What started out as a holiday-weekend news curio exploded yesterday when CNN uncorked what may be its most important news package of the year: Coverage of a very hungover Susan Olsen — the actress who played little Cindy Brady on The Brady Bunch — fleeing a radio interview to throw up. But this isn't just any Z-list scandal; this is shaping up as perhaps the most shattering gastric crisis in the long history of Pueblo, Colorado. "It was Cindy Brady!" the radio host cries out. "At 8:30 in the morning! What happened?" Indeed — especially with the ex-star's "mildly autistic" 10-year-old son with her in the studio ("Watch her drink like a pig!" Fox News reports he "interjected") and an unrepentant Olsen excusing the episode with a shrug: "That's how kids learn!"
Except the kids are usually the ones hiccuping wine all over the room the morning after an irresponsible, ill-advised bender, but whatever. The rest of the Olsen's saga really must be seen to be believed; thankfully, we can help you with that after the jump!

Don Drysdale stopped by later in the day to remind Cindy the importance of studying hard in school and waiting until 9:30 am to get crocked. Celebrities stopping by your Astroturf backyard- that's how kids learn.

What's the big deal? It's not like someone got hit in the nose with a football or molested by Sam the Butcher.

Man. They don't make fucked up child stars like they used to. Anyone seen Danny Bonaduce lately? Miley Cyrus could learn a thing or two. Maybe she will; she's still got time to pull a Spears.
I rooted for Arculetta in the AI finale with the sick hope that we could watch the seeds planted by a strict Mormon upbringing, stardom, and an overbearing father flower in the public eye. I still have hope. You can do it, David. Make me proud.

If you play this clip backwards, she says Christopher Knight is the antichrist, in latin.

This is such a coincidence, because this morning I barfed all over my Kitty Carryall.
Also, I like that Susan is conducting her hangover interview in front of a Budweiser sign. Alcohol: pervasive much?

"Here's the story
Of a girl named Susan.
Who was being interviewed on the radio.
BLAH BLAH BLAH
"That's the way
she blew her chunks
and lost her lunch!"
(Sung to the tune of the Brady Bunch theme.)

Yeah that radio host was hilarious "THIS IS THE WEIRDEST THING I'VE SEEN IN 20 YEARS OF RADIO!!!"
Well buddy, then you ain't living. If that's crazy, I bet their ratings are in the toilet along with Susan Olsen's stomach lining.

I'm more curious to find out what she has done lately that merits an interview.

By the looks of that photo - Cindy had such a hangover that SHE FORGOT TO PUT IN HER TEETH THAT MORNING. Why, it's enough to make Mike Brady's hair curl!

Pueblo is the armpit of Colorado. Does she really live there?

How did a couple of glasses of wine mutate into "a lot of wine"? A dyed in the wool lush can see through all that.
It was probably boxed wine from Costco.

Yay years ago, Ms. Cindy appeared on the Howard Stern show and laughed off a DUI that she had... so apparently this has been a laughing matter on and off the radio for years... Why, it's so funny it could be a sitcom - well, until she kills someone.

Jesus, I thought Cindy looked bad until I took a gander at Cousin Oliver:

Cindy says,
"I'm a very, very, very honest person"
I generally translate that as
"I'm a socially inept asshole with a big mouth and I don't care."
Also? Cindy says
"I also am a person who doesn't drink."
Yeah, ok, Cindy. Sure. If you keep saying it really loud I'm sure everyone will believe it.

She's got Boxed Chardonnay Face going-on like few I have ever seen. I wonder if her wheelchair-bound dreamboat built the deck for their single-wide.
Then she could at least say she married an architect, like Mom.

The internet probably killed the only legal(?) industry in Pueblo: sending out U.S.-government issued brochures to citizens who took the time to request such things. So, maybe conditions are such that the only exciting event in that town really is a hungover Cindy Brady puking in the morning.
