Normally, this site does not post videos that are Not Suitable for Work (NSFW), but we are making an exception in the case of Canadian news anchor Lisa Dutton.
Last year, Dutton talked about how she was a judge at a sausage competition and told her audience where they can buy tickets. However, in her report, instead of saying ‘Picatic.com’ she blurted out “Pick a Dick” twice as she and her co-anchor giggled and assured viewers they had not been drinking.
But Dutton has now outdone herself in the blooper reel category with her latest antic this week going viral across the Internet.
She decided to give viewers a helpful tip about teething babies on a recent broadcast.
The only problem? Her advice to let your toddler suck on “the big, fat rubber end of my vibrating toothbrush” and her ensuing demonstration come off as a completely over-the-top demonstration the liked of which are more suitable for a porn flick.
Judge for yourself whether she had any idea how she actually looked demonstrating how the toothbrush worked.
There was little doubt her co-anchor was not aware of how she looked…
The Global Saskatoon network is now trying to stop the video from being re-broadcast. Stay tuned…
ONE TIME IS BLOOPER, SECOND IS NOT
The first time it happens is a “blooper.” The next time it happens, it’s not a blooper.
If this performance was unintentionally sexual — I doubt it — then let this be a lesson to talking heads everywhere. Don’t ad lib. Stop the happy talk. (If you are required to make happy talk, then script it.) Read through your script at least once before going on air.
I am amazed at how often the local news bunnies (men included) are sitting there, looking at a teleprompter, and it is obvious they have never seen the script before because they are reading it incorrectly (e.g., the syntax is off, the story is internally contradictory, the street names are mispronounced [e.g., Quivira, Tauromee, Chouteau, etc.]).
I remember once, years ago, Cynthia Smith read some story about beer consumption. She paused. Then she exclaimed, “That’s not right!” It was hilarious!
