For those of you who might not know, the Cubs' former announcer, Harry Carey, always sang "Take Me Out To The Ballgame" during the seventh inning stretch at all home games. That is, until he croaked.
Now, they have a visiting celebrity sing it at each game. Denise Richards (Starship Troopers, The World Is Not Enough, Wild Things, and Charlie Sheen's ex) was in town for some sort of cancer fundraiser, and they asked her to do it.
Big mistake.......

I watched this yesterday but didn't post until now... I've been in too much shock.
Don't you have laws against that kind of thing over there?

Youre right Simon, Homeland Security should have been notified

Her singing was even banned from Gitmo for being unnecessarily cruel.

Yep, the inmates took a vote and said if given the choice they'd prefer waterboarding.

I think Renee Richards could have done a better job as a duet.

Her dad Keith was quoted as saying, "She must be on drugs!"

I think her taste in men is suspect too.

Okay, let's recap: Can she sing? - NO Can she act? - NO Why the hell is she famous again? all lips and tits

The Cubs should be totally embarrassed for having her sing that song. If she had been at AT&T parking in San Francisco, we would have booed her ass out of there. They usually get someone in the stands to sing it and then they given them a Giants hat for making an ass out of themselves. Hell I would do it for the hat.
Why don't they just play a tape of Harry signing the song in his memory? It would be much nicer.

On the plus side, she was still better than Rosanne.
