Kim Delaney Might Want to Rethink Drinking Before a Speech

Kim Delaney, Army Wives star and problem drinker, was booted off stage at the Liberty Medal Award Ceremony when she showed up drunk and slurred her way through an incomprehensible and inappropriate speech. Attempting and failing to read off a teleprompter, Kim struggled through her speech as the crowd grew increasingly uncomfortable.

Kim started off describing how she “served in active military duty family for five years.” She went on to say, “I’ve seen soldiers come home with painful life altering injuries borne of their time and service. I’ve attended numerous military funerals, including that of my best friend’s son.”

Then, in a twist that would make M. Night Shyamalan jealous, Delaney pulls the rug out from under them. “It’s all make believe. I do that as a job. It’s make believe. I have the luxury to do all of this on a television show.” *Cue awkward silence*

Suffice to say, before she could finish her closing statement, she was ushered off stage.

CBS’ Philadelphia affiliate claimed Delaney was supposed to read her speech off a teleprompter but technical difficulties forced her to wing it.

Wow. The only way this could have gone worse is if she went on stage, put her middle finger in the air, screamed “Haha, f**k you, you poor dying saps,” and poured a bottle of Jack on the American flag. And it’d be only marginally worse at best.

Why is she smiling while giving a speech abt. soldiers coming home dead? What an idiot. Someone should also teach her to stand still when speaking.
