Blooper Reel Time

Every year CNET TV publishes blooper reels of all of our on-air personalities. While I am certainly not opposed to airing my foibles, as evidenced here and here, I am a little reluctant. I am always so afraid of being inappropriate but more often that not, I err on the side of authenticity. For better or for worse.

The CNET TV blooper reels started rolling in last week. First came Tom Merritt's, then Molly Wood's, Brian Cooley's, and finally Brian Tong's. I was afraid to see mine. You should be too. There is some really bad singing going down here. See for yourself:



While I am laid bare, I might as well admit that this blooper reel came at a time when I really needed to smile. I have made no secret of the fact that this has been a rough year. That is why I am grateful for this uncensored look at myself where I realize how much fun I've had this year. So what if I spent my Saturday night reading, doing my taxes, and watching You've Got Mail on Oxygen? That is probably how I'll spend my Christmas given that I have to work on the Early Show and therefore won't be going home to San Francisco for the holidays. I will ask Santa for a more social life in 2009. That and maybe a hairdresser in New York. My hair is really quite ridiculous.

Hi Natali, i just saw you on cnet your review on Kindle. Well, some other things kindle on me coz i'm struck. Definitely, you're cute. Anyway beside that I smile when I see your bloopers behind the job and its wonderful to see you gettin' bubbly over there. Uhm and also most importantly you as being a fantastic writer (read on some of your blogs) and I agree with the chase britney, or paris or some infamous celebs.. we'll i dont know, people should always use their TIME in important things like your reviews.. lol.. anyway hope you read this and keep it up. Keep me updated! byebye

Natali; I can't imagine you being sad, knowing the happiness that you bring to us. Clearly, the problem is trying to fit soooo much into 24 hour days, and not having someone to brush your hair for extended periods of time. That's relaxation and then some. Find him? Hang on...
Your mind seems to be such a busy place. Take Great Care. You are special!
