Mark of the Mark, Gennie, & Dahmer (MGD) morning show at Rock 104.5 in Jacksonville made a startling admission on Monday’s show, a dark secret shared by the fathers of daughters across the country: He likes watching Hannah Montana.
Of course, Mark’s son is only 3 1/2 years old and has no interest in Hannah Montana. Perv.
As the father of two little princesses, I am intimately familiar with all things Hannah… perhaps I should phrase that differently. As a responsible parent of two young ladies, I monitor their television viewing habits by watching their shows with them.
That’s better.
Anyway, I tell my wife regularly that I think l’il Miley Cyrus is one heckuva good comedic actress. In fact, she’s a way better actress than she is singer. The Disney machine tries to do too much with her voice, in my opinion, making it something it really isn’t. But this girl can act!
So, it was with the sort of relief a closet alcoholic feels when their secret is discovered that I listened to Mark’s admission: Shame, mixed with the hope that someone out there understands – it’s the talent, dammit, the talent!
Of course, then MGD put together their tribute song to Hannah Montana (NSFW)**, and I stopped feeling like I’d bonded with Mark and started reviewing the FDLE sexual predator database.
**Song removed from their website for whatever reason – copyright? trademark? good taste?
