It’s What the…What? Wednesday, and oh-boy do I have a fun one for you today! Â I’ve been sitting on this one for a whole week now and the desire to share this one has been killing me! Â I hope y’all enjoy it every bit as much as I did!!!
If you’ve read many of my blogs, you know that I’m a displaced Oklahoman living in Minnesota. Â Everyone who knows me knows that I’m terribly homesick, and so people go out of their way to bring me news from home. Â Last Wednesday, one of my Minnesota friends posted a video on my Facebook wall of a news story right from my hometown Oklahoma TV Station. Â Apparently an Oklahoma City apartment building went up in flames, prompting the news team to run a story on it but – more importantly – to interview amazingly charismatic Oklahoma City resident, Sweet Brown.
This first video is the actual news story that ran on KFOR-TV out of Oklahoma City.
I can’t even begin to imagine the humor and jokes flying around the editing room on this one. Â I’m seriously not sure how the anchor kept a straight face as she ran the story…I know I wouldn’t had been able to keep a straight face!
As if the original interview wasn’t amusing enough, those with wayyyy more time on their hands than I have came up with a creative music video spoof that has to be seen to be believed! Â I have to admit that I’m not sure which I find more enjoyable; the original interview with the fire survivor, or the music video it inspired.
Both YouTube videos have gone viral, making Sweet Brown a local and internet celebrity. Â If you’re wondering what she thinks of her new-found fame, you can follow the link below for the follow-up story and interview with Sweet Brown.
This might be the best news story I’ve seen all year…so go forth and share, my friends!
