Hot Tub update! Super Deluxe interviews Sara Benincasa

Super Deluxe caught wind of the naked scandal involving its new series, Bathing With Bierko, and Sara Benincasa’s Nerve.com series, Tub Talk with Sara B. So the Super Deluxe blog interviewed Benincasa.

Here is a snippet from said interview (Benincasa in bold, Super Deluxe blog in italics):

Actually, I think that he’s in love with me and is trying to send me a message through his Super Deluxe show that says “Sara Benincasa, I’m in love with you. I would like you to get into a bathtub with me in a private, not-on-the-Internet way.” And I don’t blame him. It happens a lot quite frankly. I know right now he’s probably concerned that I’m mad at him. But it’s really more that I’m concerned that he’s so in love with me that he had to go to these great lengths to get my attention. He could have just emailed me.

Well, as you pointed out before, he’s “romanced Meg Ryan and Charlize Theron.” So, logically, the next step is…

Me. Because I’ve been on national television once. And I’m a reporter for the Internet. And I have a comedy show in a room that seats 30 people. So, yes, I am the next logical step in his trail of Oscar-bait poon-hounding, if you will.

Related: On my Google calendar, please note that Benincasa’s "Family Hour with Auntie Sara" show is at 7 p.m. tonight at Ochi’s Lounge (Comix), 353 W. 14th St., New York, NY.

UPDATED! Hours after I posted this, this entire Super Deluxe blog interview vanished. Hmmm…maybe their sense of humor conflicted with their sense of…??? I still have this snippet. And Sara Benincasa thought to print out the entire interview for posterity (and evidence?).
