What was the marketing/merchandising department for Starz thinking when they were all sitting around a table brainstorming about products? Did it go something like this:
Bob: I think we need some new merchandise in our online store.
June: I agree, maybe some sort of apparel other than shirts and jackets.
Will: I think I have an idea, let's start a lingerie line.
Bob: Sounds good to me. What are you thinking?
Will: Well. Since most of the Manilow fans are women, let's come up with something they would enjoy wearing.
June: I've got it! Let's introduce a thong!
Will: That's perfect. And if we put a "B" on it they will be sure to buy it.
Sally: Ummm....I may be going against the grain here but don't you think that's just a little tacky?
June: Tacky? No. I think they will ALL love it. What could be better? Wearing "B" next to their crotch.
Bob: I mean...seriously. Those crazy women that follow him around like a pack of dogs in heat will LOVE it.
Will: And here's another plus. Imagine those same fans throwing them up on the stage during a concert. Once that starts, everyone will want them.
June: You're right. And I have the perfect name. Let's call it a "B String"!
Sally: :::shaking head:::: (these people have LOST their minds)
I can't for the life of me figure out the reasoning behind that piece of merchandise. Although, I bet, like the life-size Barry's, they will fly off the shelves.
