"...blow in her ear and she says 'Thanks for the refill.'"

The latest Miss USA, Rachel Smith, recently revealed how much she really doesn’t know at a Women in Entertainment Empowerment Network event, reports the New York Daily News. Speaking about her future plans, the seemingly-superficial Miss Smith said, “I always wanted to be a reporter — maybe some TV. Who knows? Some serious news — but some modeling, too.”
Resolute Rachel, who also described how she danced around in a hot pink Rocawear sweatsuit and her crown the night she won Miss USA, didn’t pontificate on how she intended to mix journalism with modeling. But the News reports that she was able to emphatically state, “I just don’t want to end up like Katie Couric. I want people to take me seriously.”
No problem, honey. According to a Couric representative, “If (Rachel Smith) continues to offer such profound insight, she will not have to worry about anyone taking her seriously.”
After a little bit of research, I found out she was born in Panama - when I was stationed there! I feel my age today.

The Daily News printed a retraction
today (10/1):
"In an interview credited to a freelance contributor on Monday, this column quoted Miss USA Rachel Smith "dissing" Katie Couric during a red carpet interview. The Miss Universe organization later complained that her comment was taken out of context. After reviewing the taped interview I agree that Miss Smith used the word "credibility" in a context that could have been misinterpreted by the journalist. A pageant rep tells us: "Rachel is a huge fan of Katie Couric and would love nothing more than to have a career such as hers.""
Damn her! I love the "Cooking with Katie Couric" show!
