Poor Bawbwa Wawa can’t get any Myspace friends. The View founder and host Barbara Walters started a Myspace page and only has 2 friends….the default friends that everyone gets when they sign up for Myspace. People Magazine reports:
“I am now on MySpace,” the broadcast veteran, 78, told her View co-producer Bill Geddie on Barbara Live, her weekly Sirius radio show.
“What would bother me is if nobody got in touch with me,” she admited. “What if … nobody wanted to be my friend. I would be very depressed.”
Checking the computer to see just how many friends she actually does have on her MySpace page, Geddie was forced to inform Walters she has only two: MySpace founders Chris DeWolfe and Tom Anderson – who just happen to be two of Walters’s 10 Most Fascinating People of 2007 to be profiled on her Dec. 6
“Nobody else wanted to be my friend?” said a disappointed Walters. “Nobody I went to high school with? … Nobody wanted to get in touch with me?”
Hahahahaha! So sad! You’d think that she’d at least get some shit spammers who wanted to be her buddy by now. However, I think Babs learned an important feature of Myspace (and Facebook for that matter) the sole functions of those sites are to:
1) keep in touch with actual friends
2) follow bands and get updates
3) find people to hook up with who live near you. (this is probably the #1 reason people troll that site, maybe #2 to the bands)
So what have we learned from Babsies experience? No one wants to fuck a 70 year old journalist. Shocking I know.
Just for added hilarity, I should point out that she STILL only has 2 friends despite the desperate plea on the radio network with nearly 10 million subscribers. Nice. Very nice. I’m gonna go add her now…I’ve been looking for a cougar. Granted I was looking for something that won’t turn to dust when I bang it, but beggars can’t be choosers I guess.
