Oh, sh*t!
I-I've been replaced?
I'm so sorry, Viola.
Psst!|I'm fine.
I mean, you've had|an amazing career, Viola.
It's just that we're trying to appeal|to a younger demographic.
I'm fine.
I'm fine.
God damn!|Get my manager on the phone!
And then I'm gonna call|the head of the...
Uh, we're on in two minutes.
- Okay.|- Will you get her to come?
- Please!|- Okay, she'll be ready.
I'm ready.
# ... love got jeans|and a tee #
# Am I kinky or sweet? #
- # Take a look inside my makeup bag # |- # Ooh #
# If you wanna love me #
# How good or bad|I can be... #
- Are you okay?|- I'm great.
Hey, I've had|a great run.
I've done exclusives|with Kissinger, the Dalai Lama,
Muhammad Ali...
four sitting presidents...
three of them hit on me.
Five Emmys!
Now I'm being replaced|by a young thing
whose grandmother|loves me.
You know what|I'm gonna do?
I'm gonna finish out|my contract
and I'm gonna leave this show|with my dignity intact.
Okay, coming back|from commercial.
Three, cue announcer.
Today on "Public Intimacy,"
pop singing sensation|Tanya Murphy.
And now we're live|with Viola Fields.
Four, three, two...
Well, that was|very nice.
My goodness, you have a big voice|for such a tiny girl.
You're gonna miss|Viola Fields.
Have you always|been a singer?
Ever since I was|a child.
I would sing|in school plays, choirs.
- How old are you?|- I'll be 17 next month.
W-what do you do for fun?
I love watching|really old movies.
- They're my favorite.|- Really? Really, which ones?
Well, "Grease"|and "Grease II."
Um, "Benji."|I love "Benji."
"Free Willy," um...
"Legally Blonde,"
"The Little Mermaid."
- Oh.|- Yeah... oh, I know.
You ever read|a newspaper?
Newspaper?
Viola, the girl|has stars on her nipples.
I don't have|much time for that.
So basically, you have absolutely|no idea what's going on in the world?
- Oh, l...|- And yet, you've sold
over five million albums... CDs,|to millions of kids
- who listen to your insipid lyrics.|- What is she doing?
"You want to know me,|look in my makeup bag."
You're influencing|an entire generation of kids
who won't know how|to think straight,
or vote for a president,
or remember the significance|of Roe versus Wade.
Oh! I don't support|boxing as a sport.
I think|it's too violent.
Y'all better get that|little girl out of there.
- Holy crap!|- Get us off the air!
- Quick!|- Go to commercial! Go to commercial!
Crazy b*tch!|Get off me!
- Cut! Cut! Put in the Bow Flex tape!|- Get her off!
Juice Man, something!
Oh, I don't support|boxing as a sport.
I think|it's too violent.
Oh.
I wanted you to take one last look|at the old Viola.
Oh, thank God|I've changed.
