One AlphaMom has been featured so prominently on TV this week, she deserves mention as the "Celebrity AlphaMom of the Week." Her devotion to her daughter, the exposure of her old cleavage on TV, and her general pushy stage motheriness has not been seen since the mother of Gypsy Rose Lee.
Let's all give a round of BetaSnaps to: Peisha McPhee, the mother of the beautiful, talented and soulless American Idol finalist, Katharine McPhee.
From the start of the season, it was clear that Mama McPhee was pushing her daughter to acheve the kind of singing success that she never had as a cabaret singer on Princess Cruise Line. (No, I am not kidding - Princess Cruise Line.)
Mrs. McPhee hasn't said much on the show, but her AlphaWaves can be felt every time the camera pans to her during her daughter's performances. (Don't get me started on the blubbering dad.) She beames at her daughter with a disturbing mixture of admiration, envy and the soul-sucking worship of a pedophile. (Sorry - that got meaner than BetaMom intended.)
An AP interview quoted McPhee:
“A few months back people interviewed me and said, ‘Between one and 10, what do you think your daughter is?’ her mother recalled recently. “And at the time I said, ‘A 20.’ And I think some of the people thought, ‘Oh, it’s the mother talking.”’
Yes, it is the mother talking. It sounds like this mother has been talking to Beyonce's mother, who dresses her like a whore and allows her to date a scary old gangster. Or was it Celine Dion's mother, who allowed her grandfatherly manager to marry her?
Some BetaAdvice for her: Get your kid offstage, put some clothes on her, stop returning calls from Meatloaf (you know what I am talking about) and let her go to college, drink wine coolers, barf, and major in something she will never use. LET HER BE A NORMAL GIRL.
Advice for BetaMoms: Keep your kids off TV or risk a promotion to Alpha.
