I know she’s been pitted before and the consensus is that the’s a total fraud, but aside from a few YouTube videos I’m finally seeing her in action… christ! I’m out sick and watching Montel and the woman hasn’t gotten a single hit!
She’s so vague and when she does get into specifics the audience members correct her. I couldn’t care less only she’s telling people that colon cancer victims will recover and kid with Hydrocephalus will be just fine.
All the spirit guide stuff, of course, cannot be confirmed. Only I swear she’s used the same name (Dee Dee) twice. I guess Montel’s viewers must eat this shit up.
The problem for Sylvia is that she is famous enough that people are going to the effort of tracking her predictions. She is used to making confident sounding declarations, and never having them questioned again. Certainly Montel has never brought her to task for any previous wrong predictions.
But now sites like Stop Sylvia Browne are tracking her accuracy rate, and showing the real trauma she is causing bereaved families who counted on what she said. If you google “Sylvia Browne” many of the top hits are openly critical of her.
I think her credibility has been hurt. Unfortunately the hag is about 70, and getting shut down now may not matter to her that much.
I’ve actually met Syliva Brown, back when I was in high school. What an obnoxious, inaccurate git. The interviewer in the article provided by e-logic was spot on. She came to visit one of my mom’s social clubs and we went along for the show. And what a show it was - we had pretty much the same experience the interviewer had on the cruise ship, only she wasn’t in a wheelchair at the time.
I used to like Montel. Of course that was long ago before he started putting this stupid bitch on. I’d rather watch Maury and his find my daddy show then Sylvia
The Soup is on strike? But… But… Won’t somebody think of the children?!?
Seriously, that sucks - I love The Soup. It’s the one later-night (yes, I know it’s not on that late) that I indulge in regularly because it’s so freaking funny.
(Hijack alert) It’s like a trailer trash train wreck–I just can’t stop watching it. What always gets me is the boyfriend whose woman has cheated on him, she doesn’t even know who fathered her child, she’s a dawg that he can’t even stand to sit next to…until the results come in and by some chance he beat the odds & won the daddy lottery, and then he’s down on one knee professing his undying love. Dude! She still cheated on you.
The one I’d really like to know about is the one who’d had… what, 10 men on the show and tested to see if they were the baby daddy? And none of them were!This one I saw, god like a year ago and it was a ‘best of…’ type thing doing updates on them all and they’d mentioned her and that they still hadn’t found the daddy and offered to test all the men she wanted to bring on the show until they found the father of her child.
All I could think was ‘damn woman, did you pull a chain when you were ovulating?’
Would anyone know if they found the baby daddy eventually? Or if there’s a site that keeps track of this? It’s horrid of me, but I do want an update on her.[/hijack]
And then every time it’s not the daddy, she sobs uncontrollably like she’s just heartbroken that it wasn’t…er, what was your name again?
What is up with that? Because they’ve had more than one of those on the show–not that I watch it or anything. Are they prostitutes–really really careless prostitutes? Or just really popular? I can’t even imagine sleeping with 10 men in one year, much less 10 men in one month.
I actually think Montel usually stays as far about the muck and mire as a talkshow can these days and still pull any sort of ratings, but this Sylvia Browne shit has got to stop.
I thought Montel was reasonably intelligent, but now I’m beginning to wonder because he actually seems to believe in that crap she spews.
