PHOTO Gary Shirley and Maci Bookout partying in Nashville
In what could very well be the most stunning confluence of Teen Momegery outside of a Reunion Special, Gary Shirley tweeted the above photo of himself and Teen Mom Maci Bookout partying hearty in Nashville over the weekend! Gary, who was on a road trip from Indiana to Music City with a couple pals, added “good night w @MaciBookoutMTV!” to the tweet.
The picture may not seem that big a deal to the unconverted, so let me point out all the things going on in this historical image:
1. Gary and Maci partying together not because of anything MTV-related.
If I’m not mistaken this is the first occurrence of Teen Mom stars hanging out together not because of a Teen Mom event. I won’t even go into the lesser blogs that will run with all sorts of headlines inspired by these two appearing quite friendly! (Is Gary Leaving Amber For Maci? Teen Mom Maci Bookout and Gary Shirley hook up! What Will Amber Say? Maci Pregnant With Gary’s Baby!) (I guess I did go into it after all.)
And in case you were wondering where Kyle was during this TM hook-up, he is apparently still recovering from knee surgery he had over a month ago. Gary tweeted earlier today, “@MaciBookoutMTV Great seeing you and Kyle. Hope his knee gets better soon….” (CLICK HERE to see a photo of Kyle in the hospital just after the surgery)
2. Maci’s boobs!
There has been all sorts of talk about Maci Bookout having breast augmentation surgery and so far our only proof has been a well-endowed, but less-than-revealing, picture of Maci with a pair of rather large knockers that could have been an over-stuffed bra. Here we can see Maci’s new bookends in the flesh! Even if she’s being assisted by a high-end cleavage-enhancing undergarment, I think there is no denying that she’s gone from tweeters to hooters.
3. Gary’s Belden Linemen Camp t-shirt!
I can’t tell you how excited I was to see this Teen Mom icon had not been carelessly tossed aside to make room in Gary’s closet for his collection of Christian Audigier inspired “Affliction” shirts. If you read my “Top 5 Inanimate Objects From Teen Mom” post then you know my affinity for Gary’s infamous ash gray tee. Why has there been no talk of a spin-off show for this shirt?!? It could be like The Mask with each week’s episode featuring a new person who finds the shirt and puts it on, forever transforming their lives…
In the last few months it seems that Gary has let down his guard and truly embraced his new-found celebrity. With the launch of a Facebook fan page and Twitter account under the fun name “It’s Gary Time” he has unleashed numerous hilarious photos, videos and announcements detailing the wild and wacky misadventures of a hefty Teen Mom baby daddy. Perhaps Gary and his Belden Linemen Camp t-shirt could both star in a spin-off series!
