Part of being a leader is being fearless. Cherie can't
quite muster that, so she splits the difference by
being clueless and shameless instead.
As if this tiara terror photo isn't enough, the PDN also gives us a glimpse of the horrors to come:
Port Angeles' former mayor and current deputy mayor will don a bold scarlet costume bedecked with sequins, jewels and fringes, as she vies for the title of Ms. Senior Moment America from October 15th - 20th in Atlantic City, New Jersey. Kidd will perform a three-minute contemporary dance number to Justin Timberlake's "Can't Stop the Feeling" at least once. But she hopes to repeat her performance two more times...
"Contemporary" Cherie dancing to Justin Timberlake's "Can't Stop the Feeling" is sure to trigger a wave of audience and online "Can't Stop the Laughing." And if she really wants to repeat her sequins and fringe twitch-a-thon, might I suggest the first City Council meeting in November? That might give those witnessing the spastic spectacle time to get over their nausea before Thanksgiving.

Another first for her bio. Only Port Angeles council member found guilty of ethics violation.
ReplyDeleteif the council hadn't disbanded the ethics rules, this would be the second violation.
DeleteThis made for good reading while I ate my Kidd-approved Ancient Grains cereal this morning.
ReplyDeleteYou poke fun, but this is more a matter of mental illness acting out.
ReplyDeleteBy the people of Port Angeles.
Maybe she could do her dance number to "It's Raining Men...tal Health Issues"?
DeleteI....just....can't.....
ReplyDeleteNo amount of coffee prepared me for this today.
I do apologize. This one should have come with a warning label.
DeleteAgain, my apologies.
Cherie should do some break dancing, since under her watch the city has gone broke.
ReplyDeleteBroke also rhymes with joke, which is what she is.
Great. Fly across the country and back, for that??
ReplyDeleteWho's footing the bill?
DeleteYes, good question. We can assume Cherie is, because she couldn't let such an opportunity to pass by.
DeleteI don't usually go to the PDN's website at all, but this one I had to see....Oh Lord! My favorite part was this: During interviews with a panel of judges, the women will share 30-second “Philosophy of Life” statements with the audience. The statements are intended to offer wisdom to the younger generation.
ReplyDeleteSomehow, I don't think Cherie will need all 30 seconds.
What an embarrassment she is.
In what universe must a 70-something senior woman have the need to so pathetically cling to "beauty"? It is the very image of sad and wretched. It is also nauseating in its self-indulgence.
ReplyDeleteAs an older woman, I find this the epitome of sexist against women by making them the butt of a very sick joke. No one wants to watch old women parading around in a faux beauty contest. By middle age women should have more substance than desiring skin deep appraisals of their worth.
Cherie is clearly a very sad and needy woman. But, one look at her overly-made up face, one could guess this. Or, her ridiculous "Positively Port Angeles" half-baked video commentary. I feel sorry for her, and wish she would seek counseling instead of whoring herself about in these ridiculous vehicles.
She is the zenith, the grand example of "spandex grandma". She has tried to emulate the pinnacle of "cougar". It is disgusting. (Thankfully she is married, and not out on the single-circuit.)
My point: Older woman should not be trying to prance around like young maidens.
FYI: urban definition of cougar: The cougar can be anyone from an overly surgically altered wind tunnel victim, to an
absolute sad and bloated old horn-meister. (Mmmm...come to think of it, she does have that wind tunnel victim look..... )
Cherie, shame on you. Shame shame shame.
You should know by now that "shame" is one of many, many, many words Cherie does not know the meaning of. (See also: "Shameless"...)
DeleteAnd, for the record, older women rule. But Cherie Kidd is a fool.
Is it just me, or does Cherie look just a little sheepish, so slightly embarrassed in that photo? As if on some level she has awakened to just how vain, shallow and silly she is?
ReplyDeleteI'm probably giving her too much credit to even suggest such a thing. Her every public action has shown she doesn't really "do" deep or thoughtful.
Please see my comments on Cherie's ability to feel shame above. If, however, she is showing any little sign of regret in the photo, it's probably something like, "Oh, I wish I had a bigger tiara!"
DeletePathetic narcissism. Obviously emulated from the local lumber barons and grant whores, and everyone else who thinks this all OK.
DeleteSick. Very sick.
Yet another way Port Angeles is shown to the entire world as pathetic. Add this to the already long list of why so many people avoid Port Angeles.
ReplyDeleteYes. Cringe-worthy.
Well she is a bit fetching,
ReplyDeleteas in,
"fetch girl" "bring it here" "good girl."
One of the angles of this that I find fascinating is that I had this up a week before the PDN. Someone wrote in with the tip. Now, I have to imagine that Cherie was, at that point, talking this up to her friends, but, as noted, there hadn't been anything in the PDN yet (or on KONP). Needless to say, she was probably working that angle full-tilt, but, it was not yet public knowledge.
ReplyDeleteWhich leads me to believe that someone in Cherie's fairly immediate circle of friends was the one who sent the tip in here, because even they can see how ridiculous she is.
She is way, way out in the Pretty Princess Twilight Zone of Make-up and Make Believe. She's just like that buffoon Trump; she just can't help herself and makes herself look foolish essentially any time she opens her mouth and/or appears in public.
All of which will culminate in her Senior Moment Pageant dance number, which almost certainly will be filmed and available online. I CANNOT WAIT. It will be a sensation. They'll probably have her speaking on camera, too, and we all know how well THAT goes with little Miss Mealy Mouth. It will all be SO humiliating. And she will deserve every shattering, sad second of it. I CANNOT WAIT! It will go right past viral to being an epidemic.
And we all should do our part to make sure as many people across the globe see the whole sad event. Really.
DeleteBreak a leg, Cherie!
DeleteI don't follow you there. If this is so deranged and should not be done, then why do an about-face and support it? You can't stop her acting out, but you can stop the enablement.
DeleteJust don't break a hip, Cherie.
DeleteWhy does a part of me hope she wins? The $hit show that is Port Angeles would become an even bigger laughingstock. Dance dance dance. Lol. :D
ReplyDeleteEwwwwwwww ... !
ReplyDeleteSeeing this this morning made me feel like Cherie Kidd. I just got home from visiting relatives in California last night, and saw this for the first time this morning. It's so stupid, so depressing. I was reminded of Cherie's description of being depressed whenever she came home on the ferry and saw Port Angeles. I came back, saw Cherie, and now I'm depressed. Port Angeles has something to depress just about everyone, I guess.
ReplyDeleteYou know, Cherie tells people her grandfather built the Empress Hotel in Victoria?
ReplyDeleteAnd, that despite that, she doesn't get any discounts on room rates.
Meanwhile, Cherie has helped build the garbage bluff and the turd tank and the mountain of debt that goes with them. To repeat: Victoria has the scenic Empress Hotel, and we have the turd tank. Proof that evolution sometimes runs backwards.
DeleteChecked the Senior contest website, figuring perhaps like Trumps White House its pay to play...criteria is, "Dignity, maturity, and inner beauty...". Suggest video of her council antics should cover first two, while the CSO tank embalms her "inner beauty". She definitely puts the Rough in Roughrider.
DeleteIt could be worse. It could be Edna wearing a tiara and shaking her groove thing.
ReplyDeleteplease don't give her any ideas.
DeleteThere's a couple of comments to the PDN article suggesting that we all should be so lucky to have her energy and looks at her age. Please NO! If I want to look like a painted clown flopping about with manic obsessiveness, I could do that at any age. This is not an example of aging gracefully. I can't even, and don't want to imagine, what her dance routine looks like.
ReplyDeleteIs this it? Is it a one-trick blog that dies when Cherie Kidd reaches term limits?
ReplyDeleteThere are so many more relevant individuals and topics.
Gimme a break. There are many topics covered here. You know that. And Cherie essentially put a big, giant, huge KICK ME sign on her back when she brought this one to life. So, again, gimme a break. And feel free to suggest/send in topics, too.
DeleteMcAleer is the next McEntire
DeleteThis is Port Angeles, topics will never ever end for the podunks here.
DeleteRead the comments on the PDN article for the inside scoop.
Deletehttps://www.peninsuladailynews.com/politics/marinas-topic-of-debate-at-port-of-port-angeles-candidate-forum/
Has anyone ever read the Port Angeles Business Association minutes? Grammar says these may be your trolls.
ReplyDeletehttp://paba.org/board-meeting-minutes-septemer-12-2016/
I don't know about your hypothesis, but, on the other hand, the atrocious spelling is a troll match, too. (Check out how they misspelled the month of September in their September minutes...That address is not a typo, folks.)
DeletePoking around in all their meeting minutes is good for a laugh or two, that's for sure. They meet EVERY WEEK. And have minutes for EVERY MEETING. So much time and effort to accomplish...Nothing.
PABA cast of clowns - John Brewer, Edna Peterson, Jim McEntire, Kaj Ahlburg, Mathew Rainwater & Debbie Spink's.
DeleteAll part of the failed light up the Lincoln and Pennies for Tiny Homes for homeless veterans.
Pennies is about all the town gets, after these people pillage the public treasury, aided & abetted by the fiscally-ignorant town council.
DeleteAll that is needed for this area is for some moron to SAY they will do something (aka: suicide barries; free wireless internet for all; more town hall meetings on opioids; plan for replanting Lincoln Park; Light up the Lincoln, blah blah blah there are a million of them).
DeleteSo, Rainwater learned early on from Crab faced Nagle that all he needs to do is come up with a bogus idea, announce it in the PDN, have a few "events" and voila -- free donations $$$ ka-ching.
No need to actually DO ANYTHING. The rubes in this town never ask for results. They are just happy as toddlers with a shiny promise of great things to come.
Look back at pictures of her from 10 years ago. Nothing changes!
ReplyDeleteSee? She is a prefect representation of Port Angeles.
And, really, extend that to all the other ways Cherie Kidd so perfectly represents Port Angeles. Like the City, we all get depressed when we see her after an absence. Like the City, she ignores the reality of what is actually going on, and spends so much effort using heavy "make up" to cover over the unpleasantries. That list is long!
Someone send the producers of the pageant a copy of her video whacking the gavel to quiet a crowd she intentionally inflamed, oh and a copy of the poc article where she lied under oath AT AN ETHICS HEARING.
ReplyDeleteWhat? You think a sham-scam pageant like this is going to care about ETHICS?
DeleteThey just want the money.
that is the joke, there is no money!
DeleteThe whole event is put on for free?
DeleteThe founder of Ms. Senior America (not to be confused with Senor America...the migrant fruit picking program) is a dude by the name of Dr. (of Divinity) Al Mott. He's associated with Oral Roberts Uni, and the NY Theological Seminary.
ReplyDeleteHe fumbled onto THIS GIG in 1980, by writing some grant proposals for senior programs. And, what he claims this whole program is for: "Senior America pageants motivate seniors to lead active, productive lives, and provide the opportunity for them to use their wisdom and talents to enrich the lives of others." Mealy mouthed much, Al?
His email: al.mott@yahoo.com
Wow Cherie..from your Senior America bio you claim:
ReplyDeleteIn 1983, she was awarded "Mrs. Photogenic" in the Mrs. Georgia Division of the Mrs. America Pageant. Cherie has appeared in several films and TV commercials, including "Stolen Babies" with Mary Tyler Moore on Lifetime TV.
EXCEPT..your IMBD shows nothing of the kind: http://www.imdb.com/name/nm8395837/
And, as for Stolen Babies, the IMBD lacks your name anywhere. http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0108225/fullcredits?ref_=tt_ov_st_sm
Lie much? Boldfaced, too.
Typical for Ms. Kidd.
Bullshit Cherie... if you WERE "Mrs Photogenic" with Georgia there would be some mention of you in the pageant pages --- but I can't find any mention at all.
DeleteThat along with your IMBD (and the IMBD for "Stolen Babies") failing to mention any damn thing --- you are clearly a LIAR.
I remember a headline next to a picture of Cherie Kidd saying "She LIED!".
DeleteWhy do people worship psychopaths?
DeleteHOW IN THE HELL does Cherie claim 3 generations "She is third generation Kidd family with her grandparents homesteading in the early 1900's."
ReplyDeleteWhen her father Raymond A. Kidd was born in BC (1912) (his father Winston Logan "Doc" Kidd -- was born in Missouri in 1892) and her mother while born here in 1912, her parents were both from Norway.
According to MOST you count from the FIRST person born in an area, not where they died. Cherie is 2nd generation, not third.
