Hmm. Makes you wonder if these people knew it was for enertainment purposes only. At the same time though, the firm who ran Miss Cleo did seem to do some questionable things. *shrug*
Call me now for you free reading! ;)

No more Miss Cleo? Good.
I personally find her to be one of the most annoying individuals out there.
Oh and did anyone see the Miss Cleo skit on MADtv a few weeks ago? :D :laugh:

Oh my. Miss Cleo.
All this time I thought her name started with an "O", and folks were paying $5 a minute to chew the fat over cooking fat.

A few months ago my 15 year old cousin was staying at my place. Behind my back, middle of the night, the little ****er calls Miss Cleo and ended up running up $218 in charges.
Luckily, the phone company cleared the charges when I explained the situation (that I didn't make the calls, he did without permission)
So I got lucky. But still. That Miss Cleo = bs

"Miss Cleo" is really named Ree Perris and developed the Jamaican character named Cleo from a play in Seattle. Her aliases include Ree Perris, Youree Cleomili, Youree Dell Harris, Youree Perris, Rae Dell Harris, Cleomili Perris Youree, and Cleomili Harris.
The news is old but read this article (http://seattlepi.nwsource.com/lifestyle/60478_misscleo.shtml).

Is that the only time they show the Miss Cleo commercials? In the morning.
Reason why I'm asking is because the last time I saw a Miss "Calla me now for a free readin!" Cleo was about a 5 months ago.
