I planned to shut up about Sonni Abatta’s nose job or lack thereof because while she is a TV personality choosing to be in the public eye, I figured that I mentioned she looked different and now she deserves to just do her job.

Secondly, whatever changed, she still looks hot and from what I know from people that know her, she is a kind, genuine, funny, wonderful person and I don’t want to give her any stress with this, right?

But then Rob Owen wrote:

Q: What’s up with Sonni Abatta? She looks — different — and I can’t quite place it. I know she was off for a couple of weeks on, ummmm, “vacation” — but something tells me, as the side by side pic shows — that something is “different.”

Rob: I feel for Abatta and now know what it must have been like for women to live through the Salem Witch Trials. One person (in this case, Pittgirl) yells “Witch!” (in this case, intimations that led her minions to exclaim, “Nose job!”) and suddenly everybody and his brother is seeing witches (a nose job).

WTF?

First, “minions.”  Awesome.

Second, I’m on a witch hunt?  He’s comparing one side-by-side photo to the SALEM FRICKIN’ WITCH TRIALS!?

People.  No such thing happened.  What happened was I suddenly had a bazillion emails about it and craploads of hits to the site from non-readers Googling Sonni Abatta nose job.  Sonni Abatta appearance.  Sonni Abatta looks different.  Sonni Abatta face.

So I wondered what was up, I investigated and checked out recent video and lo and behold, she did look different!

So I posted about it.

Rob Owen got the order wrong.  I’m not on a witch hunt.  I didn’t yell witch.  I noticed some search activity and email activity and brought it up.  The questions about her appearance were happening before I ever posted on it.

So while he was just a few minutes ago on my good side because he wrote about two of my husbands, he’s back on the dark side and I might sic the Dread Lord on him.  He’s the next Annoying Burgher and his crown is in the mail, and by crown I mean a bitch-slap from Saucy because she is all, “Girl!  I KNOW you gonna let me choke THIS bitch for you!”

And that, my friends, is church.
