THURSDAY NIGHT — THE KNOWLES FAMILY OF BUCKLEY WASHINGTON WERE WATCHING THE JON STEWART SHOW…AND SAW THE AD FOR THE FIRST TIME.
Brady Knowles: “I looked and saw a girl that looked like my sister and we rewound it and sure enough it was my sister.”
Casey Knowles: “It’s actually really funny….”
THE FIRST GIRL IN THE AD IS YOUNG CASEY KNOWLES —
STOCK FOOTAGE FROM 8 YEARS AGO WHEN SHE WORKED AS A TV EXTRA —
FOOTAGE OWNED NOW BY GETTY IMAGES AND USED BY THE CLINTON CAMPAIGN.
THEY COULDN’T HAVE PICKED A MORE UNWILLING STAR.
Casey Knowles: “It’s really sort of ironic that my image would be used to advocate for Hillary when I myself do not.”
SHE MAY ONLY BE 17 BUT CASEY HAS SOME VERY STRONG POLITICAL OPINIONS…
SHE TURNS 18 — LEGAL VOTING AGE — IN APRIL — PLENTY OF TIME BEFORE THE GENERAL ELECTION.
Casey Knowles: “It’s perfect timing because I have a candidate that I really identify with…”
Casey Knowles: “I’ve been campaigning for Barack Obama for a few months now. I was actually a precinct captain at the caucuses a few months ago…I attended his rally a few months ago and I’m a very very avid supporter.”
THE KNOWLES FAMILY ADMIT THEY HAVE NO CONTROL OVER HOW THE FOOTAGE IS USED.
AND WHILE THEY SEE THE HUMOR OF IT ALL — THEY ARE MILDLY ANNOYED.
Casey Knowles: “I think it would be really wonderful if me and Barack Obama could get together and make a nice counter ad (laughs).”
Sidenote:
Washington State went to Obama 68% To Clinton’s 31%.
In other words he took every single County in the State…including the county the Knowles live in.
I can only add one word to this story.
It’s a good one.
And it is…..
Awkward!
fyi this is the parody ad
