Janice Dickinson Is Fuzzy

So I was flipping channels the other day (as I tend to do), and came across one of the funniest things I've seen in a long time: "The Janice Dickinson Modeling Agency" on the Oxygen network (aka OH!). What? Another reality show? How doooo they do it?

Look. We know Janice (apparently the world's first supermodel) is a bitch. And she has an insane amount of collagen in her lips. By no means is this show life affirming, good television or even purposely funny. It's (perhaps unintentional) comedic brilliance is the fact that nearly every time she is on screen, the camera magically switches to soft focus.

And not just on those little "interviews" when she's speaking directly to the camera. She can be in the room with her son (poor kid), and the camera focused on him will be normal, but the camera focused on her with have a slight soft focus. And the soft focus seems even worse when she's talking to the camera directly. Did your contact just fall out? No, that's just Janice's monsterous ego.

If you get OH! (I actually don't, I saw this in NY), this is definitely worth watching. But not more than once. I don't want you to lose brain cells.
