K-Fed is Just Too Stupid For Bingo

Hard to believe, but true. Kevin Federline, better known as rapper “K-Fed” and ex-husband of Pop gossip queen Britney Spears, doesn’t quite understand the rules of bingo- and that’s putting it nicely. ABC actually had to cancel a celebrity edition of their show National Bingo Night because K-Fed couldn’t quite get it right. Network insiders frequently refer to the show National Bingo Night as a “less intellectual version of Deal or No Deal which quite frankly is putting it lightly. Producers revealed that they never even considered the possibility of a celebrity being too dumb to play.
Initially, Kevin Federline seemed like the ideal choice for getting some good viewership. “Our research showed that Kevin Federline is very popular with our core demographic: 18-35 year-old women who have failed the GED test at least twice and are preparing to work the night shift at Taco Bell,” said host Ed Sanders rather sarcastically. Sanders also spoke of Federline, stating “It never occurred to us to ask whether he was capable of picking numbers.” Here’s a breakdown of the taping of the show. It’s basically a disaster. Allegedly, the first game K-Fed attempted to play required him to guess whether the numbers that came up would be red or blue. When asked to pick red or blue, K-Fed repeatedly pointed out red or blue items on the set and at one point pulled down his pants, revealing his red boxers. Then apparently he started rapping one of this own songs and forgot the words.
Next, K-Fed attempted another game, “Lucky 5”, where players simply push a button on a stick to make a number come out of the sphere. The goal is to get five numbers containing a 5 before an audience member gets bingo. However, K-Fed kept pressing the wrong side of the stick, and eventually threw the stick into the ball chute sphere. Against commands of people on set, K-Fed apparently crawled inside the ball sphere in order to retrieve the stick, and got stuck. In attempts to free him, the co-host, Yesenia Adame got stuck herself. Host Sanders said “We’ve learned our lesson that we should follow the example of ‘Celebrity Jeopardy’ and just make things much easier for the stars. But let’s face it, none of us ever really thought Kevin Federline was the sharpest tool in the shed.
