“A public school chorus singing ‘Somewhere Over the Rainbow.’ I literally — if I wasn’t going to go out to some parties I would have slit ’em right then. It was the worst. I was looking for a knife to stick in my eyes, it was so terrible.”
Andy Cohen on MSNBC complaining about the performance of the 5th grade chorus from New York City’s P.S. 22. on Sunday’s Oscar telecast. Cohen is Bravo’s senior vice president of original programming and development, and the creator of the The Real Housewives of Orange County, New York City, Atlanta , New Jersey, and D.C.
Cultural declination, anyone?

This from the guy who is responsible for “Real Housewives of [name the city]“? Talk about reasons to hide the knives….
