"Brenda's Back" Is Back!

Due to the wildly mild success of the new video by soap opera star Brenda Dickson, I here provide you with the parodies of her embarrassing self-produced autodocumentaries (both the 1987 video and the one posted some time last year) at the request of Gawker's commenters. The voice-over has a drag-queen kind of humor, scatological but clever. It's probably a bit unfair to the aging star, but these videos are more enjoyable without knowing who Dickson is anyway. (UPDATE: More parodies!)

Brenda's Back!

Remember Brenda Dickson? I don't! But the soap opera star, whose 1987 self-made video "Welcome To My Home" (featuring Brenda in various outfits showing off her crib) got passed around YouTube a year ago, is back with another. It's less satisfying but no less creepy/pathetic/adorable, as Brenda talks over photos of herself in different outfits before cutting to her documentary on The Young and the Restless. Below is the older video; the new one is on her personal site. "Hi I'm Brenda Dickson," she begins. "Ahhh, this couch is so comfortable," she says before reliving her heyday with poorly sampled TV clips.
