Enya Would Like To Sail Away, Sail Away, Sail Away From An Overmedicated Kathie Lee Gifford

Did we say Kathie Lee Gifford gets a Get Out of Defamer Free card last week? Well, she’s probably cashed it in about a dozen times since—so time to pile on again!

Gaelic, elevator-scoring superstar Enya stopped by the increasingly unhinged fourth hour of the Today Show (we picture Matt Lauer tossing his apres-taping screwdriver at the screen in disgust every morning in the back of his limo), providing a perfect opportunity for Gifford to share her observations about this magical, lute-playing people culled throughout her travels on the Emerald Isle. (”You all look like and speak like people-sized leprechauns! I love that you force your children to learn how to play an instrument because you’re all poor. The skin—is that genetic or is there some Irish moisturiser I should know about?”) She then attempts harmonising on “Silent Night,” providing an ear-raping accompaniment to the holiday classic so awful, all any of us could do was pray that Hoda Kotb would end the nightmare by crashing a poinsettia pot over her co-host’s head.
