Idolator

Sorry, i have to correct you on this. She actually said "What in the ham sammich..."

She seems to be celebrating her scientific and mathematical ineptitude while promoting this album, as she's quick to point out how little resemblance she has to Albert Einstein, having "failed remedial math", an accomplishment she's quite proud of, unfortunately.

And why spoil that magic by properly pronouncing a basic food product, especially one she is so (obviously) familiar with?

Did Giorgio Moroder ever say "what in the ham sammich"?

Maybe she sampled Tom Tom Club asking "What in the ham sandwich."

According to the Yo on E! interview that the Daily Mail took this from, she did say "sammich." You know how the Brits are with the Queen's English and all.

@rad_matter:

I think it's less "Queen's English" and more "let me say it how it's said in the streets." You know, for the cred and all. [Cause sometimes just being bff's with Da Brat just isn't enough?]

I feel compelled to note that my academic advisor uses this expression all the time.

I imagine (hope?) that this is the only thing she has in common with Mariah Carey.

I'd still hit that. No shame here.

I heard someone say "how in the Harvey Keitel" a few months ago...

@Tauwan: I meant how the Daily Mail rephrased Mariah's comment, not how Mariah said it.
