I had a real "WTF?!" moment this weekend when I heard some celebrity gossip about Pamela Anderson dating Michael Jackson. A pairing like that doesn't seem possible as I'm pretty sure that they aren't the same species. Not that I think either of them are actually humans either, but I still doubt the anatomy would pair up.
After I thought about it a moment more, the fear set in. Pamela has a history where footage of her in flagrante delicto has wound up on the open market. The idea of Michael Jackson possibly joining the ranks of Bret Michaels and Tommy Lee in this respect makes me shudder uncontrollably.
