Victoria Jackson doesn't want to meet at her house. "The Nation of Islam wants to kill me," she explains apologetically in her inimitable shrill voice. Instead, she picks up a reporter at a Miami-area strip mall. Her weathered Honda Civic is adorned with "Nobama," Marco Rubio, and Tea Party bumper stickers, and inside, it smells like it's been fumigated with sweet incense.
She hurtles through intersections and down side streets, holding a Flip cam to her face with her left hand. Steering with elbows and the occasional pinkie, she opens a Bible inscribed with her name and quotes Scripture. Then she turns the camera on a reporter riding shotgun, whom she suspects is a socialist. "Don't you think that some people are on welfare from cradle to grave," she demands, ploddingly, "because the government is encouraging them never to work?"
"Leaving on a Jet Plane," her ringtone, blares from some unknown recess of her purse, and she's suddenly burrowing through loads of makeup cases to find it. "What if we crashed and died on video?" she says, laughing wildly. "That would be the most viral video of the world! You'd be dead, but you'd have a really viral video!"
At age 52, Victoria Jackson bears little resemblance to that lithe and sweetly dopey girl with the grating voice on Saturday Night Live. And you wouldn't recognize her from those eight mostly forgettable '80s and '90s feature films such as I Love You to Death and No More Baths. These days, she cuts a more snowman-like figure. Or as Howard Stern recently put it, she "looks like she ate Victoria Jackson."
She sounds like a nutcase to me.
They can do this sort of hit piece on anybody. And they always do it with anyone who has a bit of influence and is not kowtowing to political correctness.
Agnew termed it correctly when he referred to such “journalists” as “an effete corps of impudent snobs who characterize themselves as intellectuals...”
the other side has joe biden. we have....
This looks like an effort to discredit anyone who disagrees with our socialist president 0bama.
LOL...I was just thinking about her Bammie ukelele song, a couple of days ago.
Always liked her on SNL.....
The except is so obviously biased and hateful, I wouldn't go to the site if you paid me.
That assumes the quote is accurate. Given the tone of this piece, I have some doubts.
The author of the article wanted to present her as a nutcase,
and one FReeper reads the article and states “she sounds like a nutcase”....
well duh...
Victoria’s response is out there somewhere, it skewers this article.
So I’m guessing later in the article she’s simply referred to as a “bitch” and a “whore”. That’s all that was missing from the portion of this hatefully-biased, piece-of-garbage article that was quoted above.
[She sounds like a nutcase to me]
Which shows what a vapid nutcase you are. Go look up her rebuttal, she skewers this reporter. If you knew anything about Victoria you’d know she is one hell of a legitimate talent and quite smart.
I never heard of her, but her "what if we crashed" quote is something a nutcase would say.
I love her... beautiful girl even porked out..
Something about her thats “special”..
Being a staunch conservative only adds to the mystique..
