AUTHOR: Dave Sypniewski DATE: Tuesday, January 31, 2006 ----- BODY: Poor James Frey. It's been several weeks now since the "Million Little Pieces" Author came clean and he still can't get a break! Assuming there's at least an ounce of truth to Frey's book, that's nothing compared to the nightmare he's going to be living now. Even as recently as a few weeks ago, Oprah was defending the man. Since then, she's done a complete 180 going from a supporter to a stalker. Every interview Frey's done lately has Oprah phoning in to verbally assault the guy. I saw an interview over the weekend where he spoke of originally submitting the book to the parent company of USA Today as fiction however, it was rejected. Once again, Oprah called in to yell at him for making a fool out of her. By the time it was over, Frey looked like he just ran the Boston Marathon shaking and sweating in his chair! I guess that's pretty much the end of that as he was already working on a sequel to the book as well as the possibility of a movie...the way Oprah's following him around, he's going to be lucky if his next book is a coloring book! She'll make the commercials, but won't eat the pizza! Despite all of Jessica Simpson's troubles lately, it's good to know that she still has a contract with Pizza Hut. There's already a couple of new commercials all set to go for Sunday's Super Bowl. That means that there's a good chance that Pizza Hut will debut another pizza pie creation. When you stop and think about it, there's not much more that they can come up with. I guess when your product isn't so good, you need to have some kind of gimmick. So, I got to thinking about some ads of the past where high cholesterol takes a back seat at a restaurant that stuffs cheese into just about eveything. There was the pizza with the cheese in the crust. It was such a big hit that a few months later they decided to add three more cheeses to make a total of four. Then they had the "Chicago Style" deep dish pizza where you could get four cheeses baked into that. Don't forget about the breadsticks they had that were stuffed with cheese. Now they have bite size pieces of crust filled with cheese! When you see Jessica Simpson hawking something new on Sunday, ask yourself if you would ever bump into dining at a Pizza Hut eatery on a Saturday night slobbering over one of those things! THAT'S the way I see things today! -------- Squealing Pig WORLDWIDE!: Frey STILL in frying pan AND 101 combinations!

Frey STILL in frying pan AND 101 combinations!

Poor James Frey. It's been several weeks now since the "Million Little Pieces" Author came clean and he still can't get a break!
