California Election Draws Angelyne To Throw In Her Bra
December 5th, 2007 by GiGiIn 2003, California voters replaced incumbent Democratic Governor Gray Davis with Republican Arnold Schwarzenegger. The process to elect the next Governor included many celebrities including our little geriatric hustler, Angelyne.
The phrase “Only In California” comes to mind as we look at some of the candidates in the California Recall Election:
- Angelyne whose slogan during the campaign was “We’ve had Gray, we’ve had Brown, now it’s time for
some blond and pink.” - Arnold Schwarzenegger, Hollywood actor
- Mary “Mary Carey” Cook, Porn Star
- Arianna Huffington, columnist and author
- Leo Gallagher, comedian
- Kurt E. “Tachikaze” Rightmyer, Sumo wrestler
- Larry Flynt, publisher of Hustler magazine
- Gary Coleman, actor
- Georgina Russell, who grabbed media attention by selling “Georgy for Governor” thongs
- Bill Prady, Television Writer and Producer who pledged to solve all the state’s problems “in twenty-two minutes and forty-four seconds with two commercial breaks and a hug at the end”
- Daniel Watts, a UCSD student who paid the filing fee with money won on Wheel of Fortune
There were 135 candidates in the California election. Angelyne managed to finish 28th.
P.S. Angelyne was also a candidate for Hollywood city council in 2002 if it were to secede from Los Angeles.
