I hope that everyone in a country that celebrates it is having a great Labor Day! The day that was created to give the working man and woman a break is also a great day to do something else: look at the pop culture spectrum to see who needs to take today to rest and then... start doing something, anything. It's a post I like to call...
'You Need to Get to Work!'
Now, we did it last year and I think that this year we have a lot more candidates for people who need to really get to work right after Labor Day ends. And they really need it...
As usual, you are invited to add your own names to the list in the comments... Now let's begin.
One person I think needs to get to work is...
Lindsay Lohan (above)
Her last movie when straight to ABC Family and none of her many "prospects" on TV have come to fruition. I just watched "Mean Girls" last night. How did it go so wrong so fast...? Get to work, Lindsay!
Jon Gosselin (above)
Um, how exactly are you going to afford your New York City pied-à-terre when "Jon & Kate Plus 8" becomes "Kate's Eight Little Faces," which is the title TLC will prolly go with when they get fed up with your antics.
You need a job. A real one. So, get to work!
President Barack Obama (above)
Wait, I know he's working but peeps is fed up y'all. Health care, DADT, my idea for the monthly national day-off work and party (coming soon to a city near you!), Obamamama's been working but, hey, I have to say it... Get to work!
Annie Leibovitz (above)
Have you heard about Miss Girl's money woes? It's not good. I thought my student loans were bad, Annie has to pay back $24 million plus interest by, um, tomorrow. It wouldn't be a big deal except, um, she doesn't have $24 million dollars. At all.
Love your pictures, but... Get to work!
Bobby Brown (above)
Ex-wife Whit Whit has made a comeback. Now it's your turn, Bobby. Oh don't look at me like that, you're not dead and you know how to sing and dance so put the cigarette down, get thee to a barber for a high-top fade and get it work!
I'll sing "Every Little Step" outside your apartment 'til you do!
Nia Long (above)
The "Love Jones" actress has no acting credits on her IMDB page for 2009, nothing in production or post-production. I know it's hard for black actresses but how can the beautiful Long be without work. I know she wants it so begrudgingly I say, get to work!
Diane Sawyer (above)
She was just named anchor of "World News Tonight" now that Charlie Gibson has stepped down which means that the show will get the dose of glam that the nightly news needs. Plus, with her and Katie Couric it's, oh I know this is a little sexist but I can't help myself... "This is Ladies Night and the feelings' right, oh this is ladies night, oh what a night!" Brian Williams, I'm including you too.
Okay for this last one, I wanted to suggest the opposite. Instead of having to get to work, this person needs to take a few more days off...
Neil Patrick Harris (above)
I love you, Neil, but seriously you are like everywhere. David is sitting at home, keeping the bed warm, go back to him every once in awhile. Ever heard the expression, 'too much of a good thing'?
Okay, on this Labor Day, who do you think needs to get themselves to work?

Me.
I would humbly suggest John Cena...but only to star in your Pantless Jones movies.
Hmm...well I'll go all trailer trash on yah and suggest Dale Earnhard Jr. in Nascar. He is nowhere near where he should be performing and so I say to him, get back to work.
OH Dani! Way to go!
I want to go back to work and be one of those people Joan Rivers interviews on "How'd You Get So Rich?"
I mean really. Then, Dani, we could have our own "JuniorJuice" logo plastered across the hood of ol' #88!
Actually Junior, why don't we just bottle water and sell it as JuniorJuice? Coke is making a fortune off bottled tap water calling it Dasani.
"JuniorJuice - sweetened by the sweat of your brow!"
What are you talking about, Pom!? You're a mother, raising a responsible child in this day and age, you run a household and you write and are generally fabulous! I won't have to talking about Pom like that!
Hi Dani! I agree about Cena, one day he'll return my imaginary calls. In the meantime, tell me more about DEJ. Is he not racing as much as he should, got gunk in the transmission? What's his deal!? Get to work!
And Dale, everything about what you said is A) funny and B) frightens me a little. The last thing I want is someone making something and calling it "JuniorJuice"! What will people think I put in it!!! NOOO!
But thanks for thinking of me!
I would die if Bobby B made a comeback. Literally. The sheer awesomeness (and improbability) would cause me to go into cardiac arrest.
I still really, really want it to happen, though.
I know right!? I was watching the Oprah commercial with Whit and thought, wait a second, Bobby didn't beat her. He was on drugs just like she was. He should have a comeback too! That's when my internal "Every Little Step" started playing again and I got real excited for no reason whatsoever!
Not gonna lie, Every little step is the ringtone on my personal cell phone
