I presume these were already posted a while ago, but I can't see the archive. Resharing for posterity.
From Attack of the Show (Jan 2009) - Olivia Munn dons a skimpy French Maid costume and jumps into a giant chocolate cream pie with Kevin Pereira (who is also in a French Maid costume).
Credit to g4tv, and the obscure corner of the interwebz, where I re-discovered these gems.
I remember that. For some reason it produced an absolutely insane amount of ranting at the time, which looking back is weird as it's a pretty reasonable mainstream scene.
From my own POV the outfit was disappointing, as a week or two earlier she'd posed in a much nicer, non-skimpy version which would have been awesome to see messy, but I realise most guys probably prefer what she did wear.
Don't outright hate this scene, but the amount of missed potential is off the charts;
- Her initial jump leading to a rather lacklustre mess - The sheer lack of any real facial coverage throughout the scene - The male host both joining in (If that bothers you) and immediately getting more messy. - The potential redemption when they go to bellyflop into the pie and Olivia basically... Doesn't.
Like I say, not a scene that really irritates me too much (how often do you see women in maids outfits jumping into pies?), but it still hurts.

The only other time I saw a scene draw that sort of anger on UMD was the food fight between Regis Philbin and Kelly Ripa.
Never enjoyed the scene but I give them a C for their efforts. For starters, if I recall correctly, she injured her knee upon jumping in. Seeing a hairy legged dude in a dress join her ended any real eroticism for me. Very rare for me but rating... :thumbsdown: :thumbsdown:

The fact that G4TV took time out of their "busy schedule" (AHEM) to actively troll the WAM community in the wake of this fiasco alone.... should make you realize exactly why those of us who REALLY remember still actively despise even a mention of this scene.
It seems to be wiped from the Internet now, but a couple weeks after some WAMmers reacted negatively to this scene (which G4TV itself built up for an entire week), Attack Of The Show ran an "expose" on the "weirdos" (their words) who were into the "pie fetish." Apparently, we were turned on by seeing women get hit with pies... or hold pies.... or just eat pies. Incredibly stupid, and (intentionally?) inaccurate, and pretty mean-spirited considering there's maaaaaybe 3000 active WAMmers out there and G4TV, even at its low point (and they were sinking pretty low by then), probably had an audience of at least..... 10 times that? Maybe 20?!
Oh, and it was narrated by Olivia Munn herself. And they stole clips from actual WAM producers, like myself and Lenny, without our permission or rights negotiation... to use in their childish takedown of the WAM community. (The clips were super lo-res, so I assumed they were swiped from YouTube, which again.... A cable channel doesn't get to rebroadcast content they don't own just because it's in a YT clip.)
So yeah, fuck Olivia and fuck G4TV. At least the universe delivered some karma on them both, eventually.

This scene is so "recent" that you can't even find the original threads about the real-time event.... Because the UMD's saved threads only go back to 2013. (Four years after this blast from the "recent" past.)
Kudos on me for basically reminding people of the same G4TV shittiness towards the WAMmers, a year earlier. When I'm dead and gone, hopefully someone else will keep reminding folks!!

Love you, too
