'Are you kidding me?' Boebert snaps as radio interview starts with Beetlejuice burn

Rep. Lauren Boebert (R-CO) wasn't happy about the music choice during her introduction on an interview with Colorado radio station KOA-AM.

Host Ross Kaminsky began the sitdown with the "Beetlejuice" film score by Danny Elfman — a choice Kaminsky blamed on producer Dragon Redbeard.

"Let's talk about the intro music!" Boebert exclaimed. "Are you kidding me?"

"That's producer Dragon's — producer Dragon," struggled Kaminsky. "Was that — was that 'Beetlejuice' music?" he asked.

"Of course it was," Boevert snapped back.

"I'm not — I'm not going there. I'll let other people ask those questions," Kaminsky said.

The tense moment referred to in a Denver theater at which got into an argument after audience members asked her to stop vaping, and video footage showed her and her date groping each other. She was booted from the performance.

The radio host quickly tried to move past it.

"And this is not the most important thing, but I will just say the last couple of times I've seen you, you must have been wearing taller shoes. Because you're [George W. Bush's White House press secretary) Dana Perino size, which I did not quite realize," he said.

"Yes, so I am 5-zero ... and I typically am in heels. In my own personal opinion, when I wear flats, that means I've given up on life. I am in flats tonight. I think it's kind of cute. Just for the record, I'm not giving up."

Kaminsky went on to talk to Boebert about Reps. Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez (D-NY) and Marjorie Taylor Greene (R-GA) — both of whom he said he disliked.

"They're famous for all the wrong reasons, and I can't stand any of them — and you, I like you," he said.

"I've known you a little bit for a long time. I like you a lot as a person. I think you're genuine and funny, but you're famous and I don't know that it's good for a member of Congress to be famous. I don't know that you're famous for reasons that you want to be famous."

Boebert joked, "So, I mean do I wish I was less in the spotlight? Yes and no, right? I mean, I don't have personal moments. I wish I was less on infrared camera. That would be great."

Still, she said, getting noticed means she's more likely to be included in the top-level meetings with leadership.
