SWINE FLEW: Paula Deen Hit In The Face With A Ham (With Video)
![]() |

I go out of town for one day (one day!) and Paula Deen gets hit in the face BY A HAM. Oh the irony!
Deen was delivering 25,000 lbs of Smithfield hams at an event for Hosea Feed the Hungry and Homeless when it happened. She threw one down the relay line, and some guy in the crowd yelled “back at ya!” and threw it at her. The rogue ham hit her in the nose.

You can check out the video below. It’s hilarious how the other volunteers shielded her and rushed her off camera like she was the President who just got shot or something. And what about her husband at the end of the video, standing there juggling his hams instead of rushing to her side?
Don’t worry, Paula wasn’t injured. She’s totally fine. No word about the ham’s condition, though.
Let this be a lesson to Paula:

Jillian, it’s absolutely awesome for you to remember the episode of “The Brady Bunch” in which Marcia gets hit in the nose!
I was waiting for something here! You did not disappoint me!
haha i was waiting for this to pop up here!! haha soooo funny. awh paula, i bet the ham still tasted good. :p
Her bacon finally bit back
Heeheeheehee – I too, was waiting to see what FNH would do with the news. Priceless.
Santa Groover remains calm.
They hates these hams. Stay away from the hams.

As great as the flying ham was. The best ‘reaction’ was that of her husband which was nothing. His wife has been hit in the face goes, possibly injured, he continues on doing what ever the hell it was that he was doing.
This is what the fake Georgian gets!
I mean I just wasted good money on one of her pies ..and yuck! My boyfriend Alex was right!!
I guess lesson of the day for Miss Paula .. Karma is a bitch…
P.S. I want to know what she looked like after that hit..I bet her nose had to be glued back on ..
You know .. I bet almost 99% of those people standing around Miss P Ditzy were laughing on the inside… haha!!
… when pigs fly … ?
LOL, well done Jillian. Paula, all our best wishes for a speedy nose recovery. :-D
Paula, Paula Paula!!!
Hog Wild
AWESOME! The best part was watching her husband stand there as someone handed him another ham, as if to console him! Not surprisingly, he acted like this had happened many times before.
Poor Paula, got slammed by a ham in the snootus!
Damn that hurt YAWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWW
I bet the person that threw that felt like a DUMB ASS. Ouch.
I thought that the only meat that hit her in the face was old goat balls.
Nice visual Barb……ick!
Paula got porked!
I saw it on the news this morning and was able to slow-mo the video, she wasn’t even looking as it smashed her face. It really looked painful, ham had to have been at least 8lbs. I’d hate to be the person who threw the darn thing!
I heard this in CNN this morning. CNN! Geez.
As much as I dislike Paula, you know that had to hurt.
May the next FN personality to have an accident be Guy Fieri getting hit in the face with a bowling ball.
Dream on friend!
The pigs that have been mistreated by Smithfield (Paula’s sponsors) are getting some revenge.
This moment is one of my favorites in history. Oh, if only it were a daily occurrence.
The husband’s non-reaction is the best! FWIW, that sounded like it hurt like hell.
I just loved it when Capt. Golddigger stood by and watched his wife wince in pain.
Jeez Captain, she ain’t the rough and tumble deckhand on a tugboat you know.
I think it’s nice of Paula to do some charity work.
All I could think of was that the ham was thrown by a Smithfield protester.
Ouch
I mean I would have gotten fired for being the one that laughed and pointed … it’s okay I am sure she can but some butter on her face to fill them cracks until she sees her doctor ..again. lmao
Poor Paula – glad you didn’t get too hurt.
But The Captain didn’t even blink an eye.
?
Wonder if he’s hard of hearing from working around noisy boat engines for years? Maybe that’s how he puts up with her incessant squawking, heh.
When that ham hit, it knocked Paula’s wig askew, dislodged her bottom plate, and made her chins wobble in separate directions. I wonder if that shot will make the next cover of Food Network magazine?
LOL. That is all fine sir.
HAHAHAHAH!
Two things that I think should be noted:
1) This story has now been picked up by the Associated Press, which moved it as “BREAKING NEWS.” Insert your own joke here.
2) The caption to AP’s picture is the only place that bothers to mention that she was hit in the face by a CANNED ham. Not even your normal dense and tightly-packed football-shaped bone-in or boneless mass of smoked pork and salt, but one protected by a thick metal enclosure!
Paula Deen was hit in the face by a CANNED HAM.
(I have no evidence to support the rumor that “CANNED HAM” is Guy Fieri’s custom license plate for his car.)
She deserved it. It was time for the pigs to get revenge on this southern fried sleaze bag for cooking up so many of it’s swine brethren!! This woman doesn’t know how to cook if you took away her bacon, ham and butter (and it shows!)
At least she recovered from it without throwing a fit like some celebrities would. I bet the guy who threw the ham back at her feels like a total jackass. Also, Miss Piggy rules. That is all.
Poor Paula! and Poor guy for throwing it, he’s never going to live it down.
Im wondering her husband didn’t seem to care and just kept grabbing hams at the end!
I agree with a few others about Cap’n Santa just standing there like he just smoked a week’s worth of doobies. I mean, c’mon Cap’n!!
Gregg, if Fee-etti gets hit in the head by anything, I hope it’s a lot bigger and heavier than a bowling ball.
BBBBBBBBBBBBBAAAAAAAAAAAAHHHHHaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaahhaha….I heard this story this morning and almost died of laughter…..she deserved every minute of it! At least she laughed about it in the end…….”Got any cold butter to sooth the bruising, y’all?”
Ya know, if Paula was going to get ham thrown at her, it should have been done Captain Kangaroo-style. See, when she squeals the answer to a lame knock-knock joke, she gets showered in Smithfield hams.
Maybe the ham thrower was pissed off because he wasted money on one of Paula Deen’s pies? Seriously though, despite the fact that I don’t endorse the Deen family’s obvious greed, it isn’t cool to throw things at old ladies.
The reaction by her husband really is the best. Everyone else on the video looks really shocked, but her husband appears to be stoned out of his mind and therefore oblivious to the surroundings. :)
@PETA: I am an advocate of animal welfare and a critic of Paula Deen. Though we have those issues in common, there aree some things I’m going to address.
I feel that PETA is in and of itself a great injustice to animals and people everywhere. PETA’s risque advertising, harassment, and mindless destruction of personal property show nothing more than that they, as a group, are immature and senseless people hellbent on assimilating the masses into their way of life. PETA stands for People for the Ethical Treatment of Animals, yet it hardly lives up to that name. Especially when one notices how the organization regards those it disagrees with. According to PetaKillsAnimals.com, “From July 1998 through December 2008, People for the Ethical Treatment of Animals (PETA) killed over 21,000 dogs, cats, and other “companion animals.” Can PETS provide a defense for this?
I understand that the current treatment of animals at factory farms and elsewhere is abhorred. Even so, there are many more peaceful and highly effective ways to spread PETA’s message and implement it. It’s up to PETA to find and use them. Humans have been hunting animals since the dawn of time. Humans have had a multitude of uses for animals, all humane ones at that, besides their meat. We (those that agree with me) will not end millenniums worth of human way of life because PETA doesn’t like it. We are barraged by self-aggrandizing celebrities preaching a message that I seriously doubt they believe in, or care about. I believe they’re there for a paycheck and “good” publicity. Is this what PETA stands for? Instead of stamping out the effect, realize the cause and professionally and politely solve the problems that way. Kindly leave the rest of us alone.
For the record, I support the SPCA.
Love the shot of Miss Piggy – I love her even if she chases Kermie like a big ho. My cousin, when he was about 2, would call her “Missum Pig” – is that not the cutest? I would like to support the SPCA but I cannot tolerate their commercials. If I want to cry like a baby while watching tv I will watch the Neelys. I’ve adopted so many stray cats I will not list the number so as not to be lumped into the crazy category. I understand animal issues, I act on them by fixing them and giving them a home. I don’t have to see horrific examples of abuse in SPCA ads in order to act. Don’t get me started on PETA – what a joke.
I was wondering if the whole thing was staged for publicity, since Old Captain husband of the butter queen Ms. Deen didn’t move, blink or even inquire about her. I would hope that if I got hurt like that my husband would at least ask if I was o.k.
He looked like either he was sleepy or stoned or both. Makes you wonder what really was going on.
Karma is a bitch, isn’t it, Paula? I’m sure the mistreated workers at Smithfield’s atrocious processing plants are having a helluva laugh over this, not to mention the pigs.
HAHAHAHA…I love how Paula stopped that ham with her face!Her husband’s oblivion indicates that he clearly suffers from long term butter poisoning.
Paula was probably thinking “If i knew someone was going to throw a ham at my face, I would have opened my mouth.”
Oh, Geez! Paula Deen being whacked by a ham is ranked among the year’s TOP videos!
There used to be (may still be there) a great BBQ joint in Georgia called the “Flying Pig”. Hoping Paula doesn’t get any wise ideas and try a corporate takeover!
BAHAHAHAHAHAHA!!! This is hilarious!!!
You know Paula Deen is really Jerry Clower in drag right, YOW’LL?
