3 Barks For Barker!
You know how at the end of every Price Is Right episode (his last one will air June 15) Bob Barker would remind you to 'spay and neuter your pets?' Apparently he was actually serious. I always thought the quote was some kind of ploy to create a wacky signature phrase, kind of like Hilton's "That's Hot" or The Donald's "Ya Fir-ahd. " But according to Variety, Barker has been an animal advocate for over 20 years, and actually started his own foundation for people who didn't have the funds to, um, spay or neuter their pets.
We're a little bit in love with you, Bob Barker! Sure, Paul Newman's got Camp Hole in The Wall and a delicious Parmesan peppercorn vinaigrette. Jessica's got Operation Smile. Oprah has about 5654.44 zillion charities going on, and she makes sure we hear about all of them on a daily basis. A celebrity who does good things, knows how much toilet paper is going for these days, and doesn't sing his own praises? C'mon down!
