I’ve cried several times this past week…and it’s all Jasmine’s fault! She’s the Beauty & The Geek cheerleader-turned-babysitter that is so utterly clueless, I laugh til it hurts. Series creator Ashton Kutcher, himself, can’t keep a straight face when talking about her in interviews—he knows a comic goldmine. I watched the season premiere twice, just to see the Ohio gal reveal that she doesn’t speak French, but tells people she does…then walks away before they ask her to. Admitting she’d taken “an IQ and A.D.D. test” (ACT, maybe?), host Mike Richards asked how she did. “I didn’t even know they were giving it!” she gushed, with a naiveté that cracked Mike up. Her verbose geek, Dave, said when he learned Jasmine would be his partner, “I was worried. I didn’t know how we’d communicate.” Yes, the gap is that wide. Jasmine’s initial reaction? “My first thought was, wait…who’s Dave?” The challenges begin tonight, and I’ll have the Kleenex handy.
