Slurpee Gets More Celebrity Love

“Not just Slurpee, but 7-Eleven has everything”

NEW YORK -- One week after Beyonce posted photos of herself drinking a Slurpee on her Instagram page, singer/actress Kristin Chenoweth joined her in confessing an affinity for the frozen dispensed beverages and the 7-Eleven convenience-store chain.

Kristin Chenoweth orgasms over a Slurpee

“Wow! Me and @beyonce both love slurpee's,” Chenoweth (@KChenoweth) posted on Twitter on Dec. 2, the same day she appeared on the Meredith Viera Show.

“That’s my favorite thing in the world,” Chenoweth said on the show.

“A Slurpee?” Viera asked with great surprise.

“Well, not just a Slurpee, but 7-Eleven in and of itself has everything,” Chenoweth said to peals of laughter from the audience. “You can get a Slim Jim or Doritos or a turkey sandwich or my favorite, a Slurpee. I wish I owned a machine.”

Viera brought out two Slurpees for her guest and herself, confessing, “I’ve never had a Slurpee in my life” before enjoying a Coca-Cola-flavored Slurpee.

The TV appearance came a week after singer Beyonce released a new single titled “7/11,” which she promoted by posting photos of herself drinking a Slurpee.
