The news that Carnie Wilson has undergone another weight-loss operation will set off more of the usual jokes.
As one of the weight-challenged myself, I'm a little more sympathetic. It's always a fight and I'm not going to rip Carnie for getting some surgical assistance. Although my cynical self has to admit that the story is getting a little old.
Carnie's legal war with GSN is almost as well known as her battle of the bulge. She finally settled with the network last December. GSN has even run a few of her Newlywed Game eps as a sort of peace offering. I never thought Carnie was a particularly good host of the show. But she didn't embarrass herself, either, though she seemed to grip the cue cards like her life depended on it (see picture).
Carnie also gets slammed a lot around the game show Internets for Unstapled, her ill-fated reality series for GSN. Really, the show was just ordinary reality fodder, not particularly irritating unless you wanted to get irritated about it.
