Kathie Lee 'Celebrates' Cinco De Mayo

Pinata + Kathie Lee Gifford + Stick = The release of 15 years of pent up emotion

Kathy Lee es muy loco!

So I'm forced, somewhat, to watch part of the fourth hour of The Today Show, or as I like to call it, Elasticity Hour, at work every day. But something caught my eye this particular fake Mexican Independence Day. In fire-breathing style, the former half of the Live with Regis & Kathie Lee show did some damage on a pinata, you know, as part of the diversity shown by NBC Universal. [No usable embeds. TMZ has the video.]

The best part about this was that you could see the pain Mrs. Gifford carried over the last decade-plus come out in this short instance of televised mock-violence. Let's count it up: Her husband cheats. She gets passed over on her own nationally-acclaimed morning talk show. She finds no work. And the only work she can find is to slap on a fake smile next to a news nobody every weekday on the lowest-rated hour of a nationally televised morning show on the fourth place TV network. Gifford's getting old too. This is her interpretive way of beating aging to death...through a donkey-molded pinata.

Moral: don't f*ck with Kathie Lee Gifford. She'll cut ju', mang!
