136. TMZ this is $!#@? bull #!$@? who's ever fuckin idea this was to add about Shawn you are are really obviously striving for attention, which you got...which was cristisism. i hope you are happy. this girl has made more money, fame, and respect than you will in your whole stupid life!!! and she EARNED IT. AND NOT BY MAKING FUN OF PEOPLE! and you know what else....she is @$?#! gorgeous she dont even look like a rat, honestly she is a beautiful giRL! TMZ i can talk about this person whos idea this was, but look WHO'S EVER IDEA THIS WAS REPRESENTS TMZ!!!! IT was a BIG mistake OBVIOUSLY !!!! AMERICA LOVES SHAWN JOHNSON!!! SO DONT !?@#$ WITH AMERICA CAUSE SHE REPRESENTS AMERICA!!!! SHE REPRESENTS AMERICA AND AMERICA IS WATCHING WHILE YOU MAKE FUN OF HER....SHE IS AMERICA... YOU REALLY NEED TO THINK TWICE...THIS WAS AWFUL....I AM SO DONE WITH YOU ...TMZ...EXPECT GREAT CHANGES BECAUSE I WILL NO LONGER HAVE A PART OF YOU OR YOUR WEBSITE OR tv show that very few people watch!
137. She doesn't look like Topo Gigio. You should have used one of the mice from 'Twas the Night Before Christmas. They had bigger teeth. It still wouldn't have been funny, she's an olympic hero, man! Stick to picking on stars and politicians.
Cheers!
138. I grew up watching Topo Gigio, and it is an adorable character, however, I doubt Harvey and his gang meant well with this post. Big mistake guys, you should issue a decent and supersize apology to this talented girl who make us proud to be americans. She not only showed talent but great manners congratulating her most fierce competitors.
139. USTEDES DEBEN DE TENER VERGUENZA.
ELLA ESTA REPRESENTANDO A PAIS.
USTEDES REPRESENTAN A UNAS CUANTAS PERSONAS. CUANDO USTEDES MURAN NADIEN LOS RECORADARAN PERO A ELLA SU MEDALLA SEGUIRA BRILLANDO.
141. That was hilarious. Despite her age and accomplishments, the comparison was dead on the money and the Title was equally hilarious.
All these people dissing TMZ need to wake up and realize, THIS IS WHAT TMZ DOES.
And I for one, say BRAVO !
142. Damn people why is it ok to bash a 'celebrity' kid but not an olympian? Both have to work and both are kids. You all come here (probably daily) to see the latest gossip, the latest pictures... but oh yeah they make fun of someone going for gold.. representing the good ol usa... bite me.
Yes she is a kid but here is the news flash.. she is also in the public eye and as one emailer wrote celebrity in the public eye are fair game!! (which I dont agree with but just quoting). They are saying ok fine but you know if you dont like it dont tune in and dont bring up the website.. you have a choice :)
143. When you are as good or better than Shawn then you can talk about her. Must be pretty jealous to say such stupid stuff. Shame on you. I wonder what you look like and what can we compare you to????
145. proud to be American....love it when our pride brings us together-dont mess with one of our own.
That was low of TMZ, that Harvey needs to learn that just because you can doesn't mean you should.
Bad Harvey, not everything is worth a buck, Harvey.
146. Harvey,
You should know better than to post something so hurtful to a young girl that has worked your hind end off to represent this Country the same Country that allows you to act irresponsible. It is really pathetic that you have to stoop to such low life behavior. In today’s society it is hard enough to grow up with all of the issues that young girls go through. You know that Shawn saw this posting from TMZ. She even asked you what did she ever do to you. (She posted it on 8/22 at 12:34am). All I can hope for you in the future is that if you do have a daughter that she will be as lucky to feel the same hurtfulness that you have caused to Shawn. Just think about how your children would feel. I am going to contact all of the advertisers that support your show and complain about your show as others have done. I encourage all of those Americans that our proud of our Country and our athletes to do the same.
147. if the spanish basketball team can pull back their eyelids for a team photo, and news reporters saying " bring me home some of that sushi (which is japanese)... then i'm sure we can have a few laughs over a girl that looks like a mouse... remember tonya harding? yea it was sad at the time, i still see SNL skits to this day about that. i'd rather watch pre-season football over the olympics
148. Waitaminit...I think the problem here is a matter of a simple generation gap.
Perhaps many of the readers who are upset actually don't know who Topo Gigio was. He was an absolutely adorable little puppet and I loved watching him on Ed Sullivan when I was a child ("Ëddd-dy!"). It's not really an insult -- Shawn is tiny and cute, too! Hold your head up, girl, and embrace your petite-ness!
149. H. Levin is just another @$!#? with an inferiority complex who takes out his dissatisfaction wih himself on other people. I've met lots of these guys. He has hired a bunch of pathetic losers to work for him. Those "reporters" couldn't get a job at McDonalds. Now Mr. Levin and his company of losers stoop to bashing a girl who has accomplished more than they ever will.
150. The whole thing is pretty funny. I'm late to the whole thing due to work but man. The story sucked, but all the complainers maid into a great one. Really how many people even know where that mouse is from. I have no clue and don't care. The needed a story and did there job by making the public make something out of nothing.
