Rod Blagojevich Can’t Be On “I’m a Celebrity…” But His Wife Sure Can

Ex-Illinois Gov. Rod Blagojevich isn’t able to participate in the ratings disaster-in-waiting I’m a Celebrity…Get Me Out of Here as it would require him to head to Costa Rica for filming.  International travel isn’t an option as Rod awaits his trial for that whole Senate seat for sale snafu.

In another “NBC Executives Are Idiots” move, the desperate replacement for Blagojevich’s slot is none other than his wife Patti.  She wants to appear on the show so that people will know the real her.  Um…is there anyone out there that has any perception of Patti Blagojevich?

I move that this show immediately be renamed I’ve Heard of Celebrities…Get Me Out of Here.

    A more appropriate name for the show would be “I THINK I’m a Celebrity.. Get Me Out of Here”

    Oh, this should be GREAT fun, srsly. Blago’s wife has a mouth at least as foul as his (it’s been said the cleanest thing to ever come out of her mouth was her husband’s…nevermind), and she’s even more cutthroat. She’s been compared more than once to Lady Macbeth, she’s so manipulative and conniving.

    Her father is a big-time politician in Illinois as well (maiden name is Madigan).

    Kate – too funny!

    Chuck – Madigan Sr. is diddling the woman across the street from me…

    I live in Chicago and the only things I know her for is marrying that boob of a haircut and taking shit ton of money for “selling” “real estate”…

      I LOVE the dirt on Madigan Sr.!

      Will miss Taste of Chicago next month. Chicago and Milwaukee (Summerfest) have the best June festivals in the U.S.A.

    Yeah, people in Chicago know who she is. And she’s just like Rod: annoying and loud-mouthed.
