Aubrey O'Day is a fucking idiot
Former Danity Kane member Aubrey O'Day appeared on Sean Hannity's show last night. Quick, what's the second best way to kill your career while appearing on national television in front of millions of people? Answer: Call Fidel Castro a brilliant man. Fast forward to the 0:25 mark. OK, here's a tough one. What's the single best way to kill your career while appearing on national television in front of millions of people? Answer: Call Adolf Hitler a brilliant man. Fast forward to the 0:59 mark.
I totally understand what she was saying. You have to be smart in order to pull off what these people did. Crazy... but smart. People who get away with murder are smart. Period. She's not dumb she just didn't get to really get her point across because those men weren't trying to listen to the "dumb blonde".
spot on, Destiny. Spot. On!
He is or really was a smart man, we are not saying he is a good man, by the way I am not 100% sure but I think Hitler was named man of the year by the Times...
The guys on that show are retards. Brilliant refers to "unusual mental keenness or alertness"(dictionary). It in no way implies moral, kind or honorable actions. She's right the bozo boys are wrong. Sure fire way to kill your career? Aggressively (yet wrongly) seize the intellectual high ground regarding a word you don't understand. Was Napoleon a dullard? Genghis Khan an inattentive simpleton? etc.....
All commenters before me are right. Anyone who cannot understand what she is saying during the interview is an idiot. All she did was make those men look stupid. Ingenious would have been a better word to use perhaps, but of course those leaders were smart. She didn't say morally justified, just smart. I really think part of the problem with the media is that they do just what you did posting this- take a few soundbites or sentences and misconstrue them completely. I expect more from this blog, although usually I don't have to expect much considering your usual topics are bikinis and fake tits. Both of which are cool with me, obviously I read this. But honestly? Don't try to turn this around like she is dumb or committing career suicide. I watched the entire interview and she was the only one who made sense out of all four people.
You are all technically correct, but I really doubt she meant it in the way you have put it here. She was a dumbass who may have accidentally said the correct thing. I really doubt she could make the clever semantic leap you have made here.
I don't even know who she is, I'm more attacking the rest of the panel than I am defending her. That said I fail to see any clever leap, as you say. She is repeatedly trying to say that she does not agree with the actions of these people. It's a little hard to hear her over the gasps and cries of "he's a murderer". Show me a non-murdering major player in the political theatre. Including the u.s.a..
Can't argue with you on that last bit. However, why on earth would this panel ask her questions of this nature to start with anyway? Isn't she a singer / dancer / actress? Would we ask Prof. Richard Dawkins about Britney Spears? Would we ask Prof. Stephen Hawking opinions about Chris Brown?
The issue here is that they took her comment out of context to make her look like a fool. Hitler was without a doubt a murderer. Does that mean he was also an idiot? He took Germany, a socially and economically devastated country, and turned it into a world superpower in a few years.
Anyway, every head of state of every major power/country that was involved in WWII is equally guilty. Truman for Hiroshima and Nagasaki and the firebombing of Tokyo, Stalin for the millions that died in gulags, Hirohito and the imperial family for all the Japanese attrocities in China, Hitler for the Holocaust...
ALL of them are murderers - all are exactly the same. you cant Hitler a murderer unless you call Truman a murderer.
Castro is like the fairy godmommy compared to most US presidents.
You are not wrong and you are making a good point. However, I hope all of this you are saying is what went through her mind when she said this. And not some lucky "faux pas" which got out of control, only to make another lucky "faux pas" about Hitler. See what I mean?
i never even heard of this bitch until this. either way, she shouldn't speak, she should just strip naked and touch herself
All the comments on this article that take the stance of a logical argument can suck one.
This is a celebrity blog, I needum sumum Tittays.
Aubrey said all the right things and Sean Hannity is still a moron. Yeah, I'd rather see boobs too, but props to her for making those guys sound like idiots. Don't understand Aubrey's point? Then you have no right to make fun of "dumb" celebs. If she can figure it out and you can't, what does that make you? Scary thought.
umm.. i don't know who she is.. but i have more respect for her than i would imagine is possible..
She was in a girl group on bad boy records and she is smarter than these fools on fox news. They are brilliant. Like we haven't had leaders that killed. and Andrew Jackson was actually a murderer.. he was always dueling and killing people.
I like how these douche bags try and ask her a different question to try and get her to give the same answer so they can say she said she liked Hitler instead of just thinking he was brilliant. Fox news clowns itself again.
damn.. i should have clarified..
fools on fox news are still fools.. when i said they are brilliant immediately afterward i meant castro and hitler. maybe not good, but probably smarter than any of us.. and most certainly smarter than the blogger here and sean hannity.
she's not condoning what they did. she's just stating that they were brilliant.
Michael Vick has reopened Bad Newz Kennels! Read about it at www.squibcrib.com
Wow, so apparently most of the commentors here hate Fox News and Sean Hannity so much that they're willing to dig through a blond bimbo pseudo-celebrity's argument and find a way to defend her for calling Hitler and Castro brilliant. That's a whole new level of intolerance.
Preach on brother.
Stupid. A brilliant mind is dynamic, it sees all sides. A focused mind eschews all for a singular goal. If any of you children ever studied what Hitler did you would know he was not brilliant, he was an idiot, he had the military to take over the world but his tactics were asinine. Cuba has deteriorated immensely under Castro's rule. That's right the 20th century did exist. He was like Kim Jong Il, denying his people freedoms so he could remain in power. Cuba was once a lot like America, before Fidel. That's why so many Cubans flee to the US. Elian Gonzales anyone?
Aubry=stupid
My dictionary makes no mention of brilliant having a "sees all sides" definition. I fully agree that hitler was a monster, and so it appears does everyone else here. We are merely discussing word definitions not approving crimes against humanity.
His tactics weren't as bad as you're making out; he made a few poor choices and made some assumptions of key alliances that never came to fruition. In the end he didn't have many options left. Notwithstanding - he not only fooled the Germans, but fooled all of the world...
i think youd agree einstein is brilliant, no lloyd? but in order to be brilliant you have to "see all sides..." do you think einstein was thinking about all sides when deciding to aid in the only atomic bombings in the worlds history, killing and damaging thousands of peoples lives past and present?
But of course, since our country did it, its ok. Now if someone else has those weapons, shame on them....as if we dont
Aubrey, is that you?
she is killing her career. regardless of what she is trying to say, anyone who takes offense to what both of those men have done is not going to like what she said and write her off as an idiot. i cant argue if what she said was smart or really stupid because there are arguements for both sides.
Maybe Castro and Hitler weren't so brilliant so much as their obsequious mindless followers were devoid of reason to determine that the men they were listening to were ideological barbarians. You know, absent-mindedly latching onto anything sounding remotely eloquent and popular, much like today's sycophantic drolls who hang on Obama's every word. If any of you idiots supporting O'Day had a shred of knowledge of how Hitler treated his fellow man, you know, advocating massively starving, gassing, and skinning innocent Jews and dissidents (just for starters) "brilliant" should hardly be the word used to describe him, let alone the first word, regardless if you think it is completely independent of any moral connotation. As for Castro, would the first adjective out of your mouth to describe him, and assuming you lived under his control, be "brilliant" if he told you what to do, what to say, what to eat, who to marry, where to go, etc, every day of your life? You'd probably feel more impassioned to use a different word or better yet, defect!
Pundits like Hannity aren't always right or cool to like, but the man stands for individual liberty and every freedom you enjoy, even if all you care to do is impugn his words. Get educated and get some perspective you sick sick people.
What about Darth Vader? He's pure evil on a planet killing scale but you'd have to be brilliant (evily brilliant that is) to concieve of and build the death star. It appears to me that you have confused a word definition discussion with people advocating human cruelty. It's like me saying "hitler's hair was brown" and you'd reply "no it wasn't you sicko because he was evil and evil people can't have brown hair or be intelligent or left handed or,,,brilliant". You don't have to be good to be brilliant. And I agree whole heartedly with you that he was a sick evil monster.
+1
The funny thing is that the US never experienced any of the misery and death that Nazis brought upon Europe. All American civilians were safe back home while we Europeans got slaughtered by the millions.
Yet, Americans are the most vocal when it comes in blaming Hitler for his crimes. Why dont you fucking right wing pussies shut the fuck up. Until you have your fucking cities firebombed or nuked you are in no position to speak of war crimes.
That faggot Hanity and his pussy ilk, all need to enlist in the US army and go fight in Bushs war in Iraq. Oh, wait. These chicken hawks shit their fucking pants even in the thought of going over there.
Quiz:
How many times has the CIA plotted to assassinate Castro? I guess the old geezer has to be BRILLIANT to have eluded your secret services for so long...
UP YOUR ASS AMERICA!
You are a disgrace. Almost half a million U.S. soldiers were killed in WWII among the millions slaughtered around the world. The U.S. never experienced the misery? We should wait until one of our cities is bombed before speaking of war crimes? I guess 9/11 didn't count, neither did Pearl Harbor. Hannity is the least of your problems. Get mental help and quit propagating lunacy and idiocy. Sick Fuck.
Who gives a shit about half a million US soldiers, when WWII casualties and deaths were over 70 million? Tens of millions of Russians and Chinese died and most of you American right wing retards still dismiss them as good for nothing Commies.
9/11 was bound to happen. It had 'US foreign policy' written all over it.
Pearl Harbour was a military base you little shit. I was talking about cities like those the US nuked (Nagasaki and Hiroshima) or firebombed like Dresden and Tokyo. Not even one American civilian died in WWII. Not one Axis soldier managed to set foot on US soil. Yet you keep talking about Hitler like you knew what was like to live under Nazi rule.
Hitler this, and Hitler that. Everyone you dont like you label as "Hitler". Saddam was Hitler, Arafat was Hitler, Homeini was Hitler, Ahmadinezhad is Hitler...blow it out your ass and get over with it.
Half a dozen buildings were destroyed on 9/11 and its like the fucking end of the world...how about the hudrends of thousands of Iraqis you have murdered? Have you ever lost your sleep thinking about them? Its OK when you level entire cities and murder people by the millions, but since you got what was comming to you, you've been whining like Perez Hilton when SHEs out of cock. Man up bitch and take responsibility for your governments actions. 9/11 was BLOWBACK.
You've got your head so far up your ass your dentist gives you a colonoscopy every time he wants to check your dental cavities.
Spare us your Hannitisms and shut the fuck up already. No one owes the US shit. The Allies all worked together to win WWII. Yet only American biggots like you bother us with shit like "if it wasnt for the US you would be speaking German today".
Wow, do you ever miss the point. And quit putting words in my mouth, fucking moron. What else should I expect from far left trash? Have fun shitting on yourself when you're in that strait jacket.
Um.. brilliant wasn't the first word out of her mouth to describe Hitler.. it was the only word Hannity asked if she thought applied to him.
Besides everyone knows that Fox News actually supports Democrats by stuffing their shows with republicans so unrealistically obnoxious that they turn everyone off to the republican party.
"Besides everyone knows that Fox News actually supports Democrats by stuffing their shows with republicans so unrealistically obnoxious that they turn everyone off to the republican party."
THAT . . . is brilliant.
@you're all sick
Oh sweet, delicious irony...
And sure, Hannity is all about liberty, unless you're doing something he's against, ar as he puts it "is destroying America".
No irony, here ...And be careful: Hannity might come after you in the night.
But i guess Hannity is all about the freedom to spout bullshit as fact: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=xP14yxx8wEE
It is kind of silly that these guys can't admit monsters can get things done in their own brutal way. They have to sit there and pretend that someone with a 1 digit IQ nearly took over the world so they won't offend their semi-literate viewers, probably the same viewers that think "niggardly" is a racial slur.
I doubt Hannity is really upset, probably thinks of Hitler while masturbating.
I figure Audrey is just parroting this Diane Watson goof anyway:

she studied political science at at UC Irvine so she at least has some understanding of issues related to politics!
After watching this, I must say that Aubrey is a brilliant woman, and all these assholes that try to make look bad are a pathetic bunch of losers that obviously envy Hitler and Castro. At least Hitler and Castro have earned a place in history as people that had the balls to take on the biggest superpowers in the world. The only thing Hanity can hope for is to have his face printed on asswhipe paper.
Hitler and Castro are saints compared to GW Bush, Reagan, Nixon, and daddy Bush.
Way to go Aubrey !!! Fuck those faux retards with a ten foot pole.
America has supported more terrorists and murderers than all the countries in the world combined. Fucking douchebags.
p.s
If you want to keep your sanity,
Stop watching that douchebag Hanity.
The most idiotic comment wasn't from O'Day, but rather from the right-wing loon Hannity when he compared Castro to Hitler.
I'm actually quite impressed with the discussion going on here. I had written off americans as illiterate gobshites after hearing about Madonna hoping for 'equality for all romanian gypsies' - the woman clearly knew nothing about the gypsy situation in Romania and just spouted a line so sound 'politically correct'! But most of you actually knew your facts and could carry the conversation without sounding like airheads. Cudos!
In regards to the segment; it was stupid for Aubrey to say on National Television that Castro and Hitler are 'brilliant' because she knows that its just going to be spread all over the internet completely taken out of context. Bloggers like Perez Hilton and this guy sit around waiting for celebrities to say anything that they can twist into a faux pas and make them sound retarded. Although she clearly wasn't saying they were good or they made the right decisions, she was simply saying that they were intelligent.
Your man Hannify (the guy on the very right, yea?) is the clear retard here. He keeps saying 'but he's a murderer, you know you met a murderer' as if this belittles Aubrey in some way. Then he just keeps trying to put her down - 'Save me from this'....perfect example of an american tool!!
The funniest part is that she said he is brilliant because he outlived a bunch of our US presidents. How do you mean? Biologically? In office? We have terms here. Hahahahahahaha. Stop arguing the other point. She is stupid stupid stupid.
Haha oh yeah, and when people try to run against our presidents they don't get killed.
