Megyn Kelly Hosts State Of The Union Reaction From Meat Loaf

Memo to Fox News: If you're serious about aiming for a younger demographic with Megyn Kelly hosting in prime time, you might want to consider hosting entertainers with hits in this century. Just a thought.

The Kelly File aired after the State of the Union last night and it was pretty much non-stop attacks on Obama - except when Kelly sharply questioned the occasional Democrat in her lineup. But at the end, the star guest was... Meat Loaf.

Yes, Meat Loaf, the singer who's best known for a hit in 1977. On the other hard, maybe viewers in their 50s and 60s is a younger demographic for Fox.

Regardless, Megyn Kelly - who was seven years old when Meat Loaf sang his iconic "Paradise by the Dashboard Light" - slobbered over him like he was Paul McCartney. Or Ronald Reagan.

"So what do you think of the State of the Union? Does anybody watch this, do you think?" Kelly asked Meat Loaf. It was a pre-recorded clip.

Meat Loaf yawned, put his head on the desk and began to snore.

Kelly giggled most appreciatively, along with some of her off-stage crew. "I think a lot of our viewers can relate!" she said, beaming. Still laughing, she applauded when the clip was over. "We'll have more of that interview tonight," she promised. I presume she meant the next night.

I can hardly wait.

And if we all weren’t absolutely sure we want nothing to do with Fox News, John Ziff clinches the deal. Four stupid times in row.

Joseph West, the 1993 hit was still in the last century, even if it was “only” 20 years ago. I thought his Bat Out Of Hell album is what he’s best known for. Do you disagree?

Gohmert belongs in the circus with the rest of the clowns. Our apologies to the clowns.

I used to enjoy listening to some of Meatloaf’s albums back in the day. I had the opportunity to see his live show about a decade ago at Rock-fest in Wisconsin, and it was just a horrible disaster. For those that don’t know, he puts on quite the “theatrical” show, however, it appears that this may have been they’re first rehearsal in a decade. I felt bad for the guy having to go out and do that to himself.
FYI…I heard that this Rep. Louis Gohmert®-dumbass, was previously an attorney and then a Judge? Can that possibly be true?
Is that just an ironic joke going around on the inter-webs?
There’s no way this person, with a possible single-digit IQ, could have a job where someone’s life could be in his hands?
Please tell me this couldn’t be true.

We are surprised that Ailes’ Legs didn’t play Meat Loaf’s “Sex, drugs and rock and roll” from “Rocky Horror Picture Show.”

Meat Loaf? The senior booking producer of this lame show should have been fired months ago. A typical amateur Barbie who is dumb as a box of rocks, and yes, we are directing this to you.

If the idiot Fox “News” suits want to bring in younger demos fire all of the current Fox “News” mouthpieces, and hire younger mouthpieces.

Speaking of aging mouthpieces, Hannocchio the RINO is taping a post State of the Union panel show with conservative lawmakers that will air tonight. To give you a general idea of who is participating in this show is Congressmen Louie Gohmert and Steve King.

Before you watch tonight’s show. Pop some popcorn. These conservative clowns are a piece of work. They are beyond crazy. They are clinically insane. See for yourselves.

Well, it should be noted that Meat Loaf had a #1 hit as recently as 1993—“I’d Do Anything for Love (But I Won’t Do That)” which has been used in the last couple of years as theme music in a commercial for M&Ms (the one where an M&M is playing a piano and a lot of women are trying various ways to eat him).

Still, your main point isn’t really diminished.

(I have to admit. The description of Meat Loaf putting his head on a desk and starting to snore is a perfect set up for any number of parodies. For instance, you have a “music journalist” asking, “Mr Loaf. What do you think of your music career?” At this point, the clip of Meat putting his head on the desk begins playing. Or “What do you think of your performance in ‘The Rocky Horror Picture Show’?” At which point, the “head-on-desk” clip plays. Or “What was your reaction when you found out who shot JR?” At which point, the “head-on-desk” clip plays. Or “What’s your reaction when you watch FoxNoise?” At which point, the “head-on-desk” clip plays. The possibilities are without end.)

This is one of those times I really wish the comments section had a like thingy. Thanks for the chuckles, guys.

With Churchill dead you have to admit that Meat Loaf would be your next logical choice.

The Blonde Hannity Show – What a ditz. I can’t watch her for more then a few minutes and I have to change channels. What a shrill. obnoxious, nice-hair challenged hatemonger.

Apparently, nobody with a hit this century was available.

I can totally understand Megyn wanting to slobber and gush over the man(?) who was so helpful to the Romney campaign.

All across the heartland of America I can visualize the following scene being repeated, Honey, I know it’s a school night, but get the kids out of bed Meat Loaf is going to give us his thoughts on the President’s speech and perhaps give them good talking points at recess to use against the godless liberal kids. In fact that reminds me, do we have any leftover meat loaf in the ice box?

Seriously now, who among us hasn’t pondered the question when we have the latest school shooting, terrorist threat or Supreme Court decision where your first thoughts are, I wonder what Meat Loaf thinks about this?

If Fox ever gives him a weekly show of his own, there will be no need for leg shots. Trust me.

I guess that Rudy Vallee and Bing Crosby had other engagements.
