Usually I am so exhausted from getting to all our activities that the Critter and I just hang at home on Fridays, but I could not resist an afternoon at the zoo for a screening of Koala Kid – a soon to be released animated feature on DVD, and HUGE deal: to be able to meet Jenni Pulos, one of my all-time FAVE reality stars. Jenni was the voice of one of the characters in the new movie and I have always wanted to meet her.

I’ve been a fan since I first saw her on Flipping Out – I yelled at the TV for her to dump her lazy first husband, got annoyed with her boss Jeff when he picked on her, was mightily impressed with her awesome kids’ rap and way with a frog costume, and most recently cheered at her happy marriage and upcoming baby. I was really glad to be able to tell her that I always knew that she would be a great success and good things would come to her because she worked hard and was always such a great sport, even when everyone around her wasn’t.

You can see Jenni do her rap in the video above (and on iTunes) and hear her do her best little koala on DVD April 30th. I’m so glad I finally got to give her hug!
