Joan Rivers features another area millionaire tonight on her TV Land Show "How'd You Get So Rich?"
Tonight's episode highlights a northshore resident who's sitting pretty.
George Boudreaux made it to the top, dealing with folks bottoms. Boudreaux's Butt Paste was created in George's Covington drug store that he opened in 1972.
"It allowed my wife and I to do a little 'bucket list' and, hopefully live the next ten or fifteen years doing things that we've always wanted to do," says Boudreaux.
Things like travel to almost every LSU sporting event in the 'ButtMobile,' a 40-foot luxury RV. It's the twelfth one he's owned, but the first that he bought new.
"It's been the butt of the jokes, but it's been just so much fun every place we go with it. It's always the talk of the crowd once we're there a few minutes," Boudreaux says.
Listen to Don Ames' conversation with George Boudreaux:
George Boudreaux may not be a household name in Louisiana, but his product is found in a lot of Louisiana homes.
Boudreaux's Butt Paste pretty much kicks the competition's butts wherever it's sold.
Despite his appearance on tonight's show, Boudreaux tends to clench up a bit when asked just how rich he is. "I would rather not say that. I've got everybody and their brother that I ever met in my life calling me now wanting me to donate this and donate that."
Tonight, he very generously invites Joan Rivers into his Butt mobile. Usually, Joan is seen approaching people driving Lamborghinis and Ferraris.
"She was having brunch at Commander's Palace and came out and saw the 'ButtMobile' and ran out and beat on the side of it and wanted to know how we got so rich. Then she came in the 'ButtMobile' and she was really, really excited about."
Boudreaux managed to crack up Rivers but, in the end, she was quite impressed with his bottom line.
The Covington pharmacist has a rash of fans -- and their fannies. Cleveland Cavaliers' center Shaquille O'Neal uses it. So does Indianapolis Colts' QB Peyton Manning. Former Saints' quarterback Bobby Hebert and former Saints Coach Mike Ditka also tout the paste's virtues, as does Lance Armstrong.
"How'd You Get So Rich?" airs tonight at 9 on TV Land.
