Stars To Ring In New Year With Dick Clark

Jessica Simpson, Nick Lachey, 3 Doors Down and the Black Eyed Peas are among the artists pegged to perform Dec. 31 on ABC-TV's Dick Clark-hosted "New Year's Rockin' Eve" special. The annual year-end celebration will be split into three portions, each laden with musical performances.

I haven't seen it. Was he worse than Bob Eubanks or Miss America in Roger and Me?

Nope. They even succeeded in making Heston look even worse.

that's such a coincidence cause i just saw that last night in my Scriptwriting class...i was really shocked at Dick Clark....but, as my instructor pointed out, we only saw a segment of that footage...of course, within the content of that film, Clark appears to have disregard for the situation...and i thought this way too...and, it may be the case....but you do have to look at the altenatives....sorry, i'm not "pro Dick Clark" or anything....anyway, Michael kind of barged in on him, and he did have somewhere to go....also, in the heat of the moment, Clark must have thought "oh, in MY restaurant? so, i supposed i'm to blame?"

i don't know just my opinion....

Boo Hiss no NYE FM performance

I'm GLAD they're not doing it - I lost all respect for DICK after seeing Bowling for Columbine.

Plus, don't you think it's about time the band takes a well-deserved rest before going down under?

Well, that is a good point, BUT I still don't think Dick needed to be such a Dick about it...he could have gotten out of that diplomatically....and not been such an ass about it...

very true....even if he had no intention of discussing it, he could have just said "let me have your card....and we'll get together about this at a later time".

but he didn't.

sodascouts · #13 12-10-2003, 12:57 PM

Well, I for one am bummed about it, Dick or no Dick. It would have been good exposure for them and, as for me, I can never have too much FM!

Wonder what happened? Also, is it possible they were simply accidentally left off?

Rent it when you get the tooth thing done. You're home anyway.

Sites ripping apart Bowling For Columbine prove that you really shouldn't base any opinions on anything, from that film.
