Crossing over? Into what, exactly?

by Brian McKim & Traci Skene on September 26th, 2007

MSN.com has a lame-o article that says that “edgy female comedians are crossing over, big time.” The breathless copy informs us that:

Hollywood’s bursting with a great crop of hilarious female comedians who sparkle in a variety of media… these funny girls make us laugh in everything they try: movies, TV series, reality shows, books, CDs, stand-up routines, news-show commentary, sketch comedy — even burlesque.

A modern take on rip and read– from network press releases and agent/manager faxes.

The piece, “Funny And In Your Face,” is remarkable only for the grotesque quality of 11 or so of the 14 photos that illustrate it– most look like they’ve just got done wrestling a wolverine at a water park! Who chose those pics?!
