It is widely understood that Miss Cleo is an infomercial psychic, with a fake Caribbean accent and a turban, who supposedly has been jailed for fraud. It was also discovered that she is not from the Caribbean, and is in fact 100% American. Nonetheless, Fox has hired her, and she is now an “expert” on the Lakers. Quite a jump from doing infomercials.
This leads me to believe that one woman was wrong when she said that Miss Cleo Yankees and Cubs in WS is ditzy. I mean, she has become successful in selling a service the truthfulness of which she need not prove—at no investment cost on her part except for infomercial airtime which pays for itself when people call in for their fortunes.
And she’s got fans. SoUtHcHiK thinks she’s fabulous and said, “I am like a white male version of Miss Cleo!” Even more, Miss Cleo has been compared to President Obama. Being compared to the President of the United States has got to be a compliment for anybody. With one paradigm shift, she feels complimented, he may feel dissed. But that article that compared Miss Cleo to the President came out twice, copy paste that. Miss Cleo has even been channeled with regards to a vintage mailbox. Even if it was a possibly-maybe-vintage mailbox. So she must be feeling some channeled love.
One woman analyzed Miss Cleo’s style of fortunetelling blow for blow proving logically how she scams, but does she really care if her clairvoyance is doubted? Remember, the sound of a phone is not far from that of a cash register. Ding ding.
