Ashley Judd Tried to Impress Craig Ferguson

I just saw a clip from an Ashley Judd appearance on the Craig Ferguson show, promoting her horrible godawful boring movie of last year, Come Early Morning.  And you know how much I hate her and her seeming inability to get through a single conversation without injecting 28-letter words into as many sentences as possible.  I mean, if you said, “Hi” to her, she’d probably reply, “How delightful of you to bestow upon me such a breviloquent salutation,” or something to that effect.

Anyway.  I jotted down, verbatim I might add, the following gems from her interview.

1.  Referring to the paparazzi in the UK, Ashley said, “They’ve completely disabused me of the high school notion that there should be some verisimilitude of truth in the news.”  I’m not kidding you.  She used the word verisimilitude in a CASUAL CONVERSATION ON A TALK SHOW.

2. Responding to Craig’s comment about Ashley picking up a bit of a Scottish accent, she replied, “I used to have this crisis of conscience about my identity - I didn’t have a consolidated sense of self, so wherever I am, I’ll sort of drift into some reflections of that (accent).”  Who talks like this?

So anyway, I watched this video and was so sickened by it that I felt a need to find a picture of her in shoes incredibly similar to ones I wore in high school show choir and a hideous eggplant dress that makes her look 5 months pregnant, and lo and behold, this popped up in my google search.   Sweet, sweet justice.
