¶ Miss. Cleo Information for those of you who are Curious ¶......................Ms. Hollo

First, we can't really call her "Miss Cleo." As everyone in the world now knows, the psychic Miss Cleo was a fake--a persona created by her employer, Steve Feder, a 52-year-old Florida businessman with a waterfront mansion and a Mercedes. And he owns the name and won't let her use it now that she and the business have been exposed as a fraud.

But Miss Cleo, er..."Youree Dell Harris" (that's her real name) insists she IS a psychic and a real Jamaican shaman. Never mind the pesky details of her Los Angeles birth to American parents.(Did you see "Minority Report," the dark tale of psychics preventing murders--and arresting the would-be murderers before they commit the crime?)

Speaking of which, Florida's Assistant Attorney General Dave Aronberg met with Harris and her attorney in late June for a deposition in a civil suit filed by the state of Florida. Aronberg asked her questions about her birth certificate, and Miss Cleo said the same thing each time: She invoked her Fifth Amendment right against self-incrimination.

The lawsuit accuses her of deceptive trade practices for her television ads pitching a psychic hot line that charged up to $4.95 a minute. Why the 5th? "I won't give the devil his due. I praise the father for every day that I have," she told The Associated Press.

Meanwhile, she admitted to Savoy magazine that the Jamaican accent is a fake. (We're shocked!) It was invented by her employers who wanted people to think she had "just got here off the banana boat." As if the fake accent wasn't enough, Harris said a makeup artist darkened her complexion before each commercial. Editor@Weird News

Hmm..Is this story more believable? Fact or Fiction!?...*she laughs*

Ms. HollowLuna

How it changed my life:

I never called her...{;-> She should be an Urban Legend!

Date: 9/16/2002 3:32:00 PM  From Authorid: 46266    Ain't that just like psychics? They're never as real as the movies make them look.  
Date: 9/16/2002 4:46:00 PM  From Authorid: 49742    I've always been leary about spending money on those things and finding out they're fake. Now I'm glad I never took them seriously. Thanks to this post I never will.  
Date: 10/5/2002 1:09:00 AM  From Authorid: 160    I never called her either and I am so grateful that she and her fake accent are gone! Banished forever. But I do wonder, who and what will replace her? There's always someone waiting in the wings for a chance to scam the unsuspecting.  
Date: 10/5/2002 1:12:00 AM  From Authorid: 160    By the way, we Floridians all live in waterfront mansions, some of our mansions are aluminum trailers overlooking alligator infested sinkholes and canals, but we are rich beyond belief. It's a swamp out here.

Date: 10/11/2002 2:36:00 PM  ( From Author ) From Authorid: 57452    That was the funniest part about her....the "call me now" phrase she always used..lol
