Talk-Shows Seem To Hate High Heels!

I need to find out how one becomes a camera operator on a talk-show.

Why?

Because whenever a star comes out wearing super sexy, fantabulous high heel shoes, as they walk across the stage to take a seat and begin to converse with the host, the camera operator invariably cuts them off at the knees.

Or if they are in a particular temperamental and disturbing mood… will cut the image of just above the ankles.

There are few free joys in the world, and seeing celebrities in their heels is one of them. Mind you I don’t sit with bated breathe and drooling, quivering lips to see a brief glimpse of celebrities heels… that guy lives down the hall.

I am more curious and pleasantly surprised by the style and type of heel each celebrity wears. And some of these shoes cost a fortune. More than some small countires entire GDP for the year, kinda fortune.

So if I was a celebrity who shelled out serious platinum bars for a pair of Manolo’s only for the grips and gaffers to see them … well I’d be pissed.

I can visulize the star in the hotel room, walking in the heels, making sure they fit and are comfortable to avoid that awkward step before sitting in the chair … and thinking of the heel training they have done so they can glide across the stage floor as elegantly as possible – only to have some goof-ball camera operator chunk the shot.

It would get by bloomers in a knot!

I mean do these stars show up in Birkenstocks?? (Shudder… gasping for air)

By no means… they have careers to consider.

Therefore, I appeal to all that is good and human in these talk-show hosts to plead with these camera operators to widen the shot just a titch (you know what a titch is) and include the celebrities footwear in their glory walk to the interview chair.

You’re ratings would go up… I know the guy down the hall would start tuning in again!

Heelfully Yours
