She Wasn't Smarter Than A 1st Grader

[abajan]

Did any of you see Are You Smarter Than A 5th Grader? last night on the Game Show Network (GSN)? There was a contestant who thought Europe was a country, didn't know if France was one and had never even heard of Hungary but (thankfully), she had heard of Turkey! (She was blonde btw.)

I kid you not:

She was on American Idol and is a country singer. She is as ditzy as they come but sometimes I think it is part of an act. It is how she sells herself, why...I don't know.

I was surprised this moment wasn't on E!'s "The Soup".

This clip is old news! She appeared on Are You Smarter Than A Fifth Grader back in 2007.

Per Wiki...

In November 2007, Pickler appeared on a celebrity edition of the quiz show Are You Smarter Than a Fifth Grader?, playing for the charities of her choice, (American Red Cross and the AARP's Grandparenting Program).[47] Worth a guaranteed $25,000, she was asked, "Budapest is the capital of what European country?". When told the answer was Hungary, she said, "Hungry? That's a country? I've heard of Turkey, but Hungry? I've never heard of it."[48] Thanks to her using the "copy" cheat, and her classmate having the right answer, she was able to pass the $25,000 mark and went on to win $50,000 before walking away. While on her first USO concert tour in Iraq, Pickler met a few people from Budapest, Hungary, who presented her with a flag of their country.[49][50]

To put it lightly Kellie Pickler is not the brightest bulb on the tree but she is one of the nicest people you'll ever meet
