A couple of weeks ago, Audi sponsored the annual Magnolia Cup at Goodwood Racecourse in West Sussex England. This highly publicized event features seven celebrity ladies taking a shot at being a jockey for single race. Contestants included a popular radio DJ, a television host, the wife of Pink Floyd’s drummer, and the race’s winner- model and face of Burberry, Edie Campbell. The race was held for the charity Great Ormond Street.
Why don’t we have this in America? Are our celebrities too fragile and fickle to get on horseback? I mean, a MODEL won the race! You don’t get much more delicate than that! I’ve gone ahead and drafted our seven celebrities:
- Angela from ‘The Office’
- Snooki (backup choice: Tila Tequila)
- That girl Hugh Hefner was going to marry
- La Toya Jackson
- One of the women’s world cup soccer players
- Someone from ‘Glee’
- Kathy Griffin
What do you think? Who would you like to see on horseback? Who would win?
