Correction: Jenny McCarthy's "Belly Laughs" Was a Best Seller

Friday September 26, 2008
In a prior blog post, I made the comment that Jenny McCarthy had written books prior to last year's Louder Than Words , but that the books were not best sellers. In fact, her book Belly Laughs, made it to the New York Times best seller list. Here is the book description from Amazon.com:
Oh, the joys of pregnancy! There's the gassiness, constipation, queasiness, and exhaustion, the forgetfulness, crankiness, and the constant worry. Of course, no woman is spared the discomforts and humiliations of pregnancy, but most are too polite to complain or too embarrassed to talk about them. Not Jenny McCarthy! In the New York Times best-selling Belly Laughs, actress and new mother Jenny McCarthy reveals the naked truth about the tremendous joys, the excruciating pains, and the unseemly disfigurement that go along with pregnancy. Never shy, frequently crude, and always laugh-out-loud funny, McCarthy covers it all in the grittiest of girlfriend detail. From morning sickness and hormonal rage, to hemorrhoids, pregnant sex, and the torture and sweet relief that is delivery, Belly Laughs is must-read comic relief for anyone who is pregnant, who has ever been pregnant, is trying to get pregnant, or, indeed, has ever been born!
Sorry for the error.

Jenny McYeasty was an expert on yeast infections before her son was diagnosed with autism. There’s a quote from her on a blog somewhere I read, she said that if a woman didn’t want to have sex with a man she could tell him that she had a yeast infection and that would turn him off. Some call that sort of comment “witty” or “crude.” I call it putrid.
