Erin Andrews Asked Really Creepy Question in the Name of Journalism

Vanity Fair's contributing editor George Wayne is described on the magazine's website as the "intrepid Q&A correspondent and distinguished cultural arbiter, conducting his trademark, candid interviews with scores of subjects, from actors to politicians, to fellow journalists."

So with that in mind, his "candid interview" with Erin Andrews sounds about right. The ESPN sideline reporter sat down with Wayne for a Q&A that will appear in the August issue, and what followed was one of the most bizarre interviews you'll read today.

A sampling of the questions:
You've got these long spindly legs. Did you have a nickname?

I'm sure you have toned perfectly, too, with all that dancing. But what gets me to the vomitorium is that faux romance between you and that cheesy ballroom-dancing partner of yours. What was with this tabloid fake romance?

Do you have man-size feet like Paris Hilton? You know, she can find shoes to fit her only in the "tranny" section of the shoe store.

What is the one thing you take when feeling constipated?
Apparently, Wayne thinks he's being edgy when in fact, he just comes off as creepy and pompous. Then again, maybe that's what he was going for. But you can judge for yourself:

You've got these long spindly legs. Did you have a nickname?

My dad used to call me "the human pretzel" because I was able to bend my body, and because my legs are very long.

I'm sure you have toned perfectly, too, with all that dancing. But what gets me to the vomitorium is that faux romance between you and that cheesy ballroom-dancing partner of yours. What was with this tabloid fake romance?

Do you know him?

I don't need to know him to find him cheesy, honey.

Well, all I know is he was a wonderful dance partner and a wonderful human being who looked out for me, who would call me each night after practice to see if I was O.K.

Do you have man-size feet like Paris Hilton? You know, she can find shoes to fit her only in the "tranny" section of the shoe store.

No, I wear a size-7 shoe, and I am five feet ten inches.

What is the one thing you take when feeling constipated?

Are you really going to write about that? I'm not going to comment on that. That is kind of weird and I don't feel comfortable answering that question. I have gone through so much in the last year.

I haven't seen such an absurd line of questioning since Joey was able to visit the cockpit
