@rd2uk: I don't comment super often on the gossip roundup, but this item bothers me because first and foremost, Dannii Minogue's core demographic of fans, musically, artistically, are gay men. In Britain and elsewhere she is loved primarily for the camp asthetic of being the Lesser Minogue Sister, and her music, while critically underrated, isn't exactly brilliance in .mp3 form. I surely hope she hasn't shot herself in the foot, especially since I quite like the stuff she's put out since the turn of this century. It seems like she thought this quip would draw attention to herself, and it certainly has. Word to the wise, Dannii: when you make your audience feel like they are "others" they will likely do the same to you.

@ampersandparade: I found what Dannii had to say quite bizarre, but it's not as if she outed him, he did that himself in interviews with the tabloids. I think she thought she was making a jokey point, that given that he had talked about fancying men, he didn't need to change the pronouns of his song. Ill-judged, maybe, but not malicious, I don't think.

Honestly, Miley should know better, but she was born with a silver spoon in her mouth, is only sixteen, and probably pays even less attention to how she spends her money than the average teenager. Doesn't strike me as someone that was taught the ins and outs of tipping. I don't know that Billy Ray is up to that pretty simple task.

It still makes me scratch my head when people go to their cell phones to calculate a 20% tip. 15% is kinda tricky (kinda), but 20%? For real?

@annebreal: The only thing I can figure is that she may have had carside to go (or whatever Outback calls it) which explains the "eating inside" thing. I never know what to tip for take out. But I sure as hell knew how to tip for regular service at 16. I'd been watching my parents tip for 16 years.

@vulcanized: Yeah, it must vary by region or something, because I've never heard of tipping for takeout. Eating in the restaurant, yes, delivery, yes, but picking up takeout? Pretty much never. If you asked for something exceptional or had a very large order, you might throw a couple bucks in the tip jar by the register, but if you actually tried to tip 20%, the staff would give you the standard Jersey WTF look.

"I had dairy a few weeks ago by accident and I knew because the next day I was all phlegmy. And I was farting and it was gross. And then I knew. It was dairy. Plus it makes you fat. Instantly. [There] was a time in my life where I was not interested in health at all; health was a dirty word. And when I look at pictures now, I see that I looked tired and puffy and stressed." — Alicia Silverstone, whom this paper calls "the most non-annoying vegan on the planet."

Ok, I was fine with this at first because my sister says the same thing about meat and dairy, that she feels all bleh whenever she eats it because her body doesn't produce the enzymes necessary to digest that stuff anymore. But really? Dairy makes you fat instantly? Give me a break. If you are vegan or vegetarian because you care about animals and the environment, cool. In fact, if you do it because you want to lose weight, fine. But don't tell me that I need to cut out an entire food group because you think it will make you fat. This kind of thinking is destructive and just wrong.

Also: I was watching an E! thing about her vegan cookbook, and they mentioned some delicious, cheesy thing and I would like to take this chance to remind Alicia that cheese is dairy. And vegans cannot eat it.

@Blueberry26: Things can be cheesy and be vegan. There are fake cheeses, cheese made from nuts, and a thing called nutritional yeast, which makes things taste "cheesy." They just don't have any dairy in them. Hence vegan pizza with "cheese."

But... but... Yoplait tells me that eating yogurt will cause me to lose dress sizes! And that I'll have hilarious misunderstandings with my tailor about my surprising weight loss!

Then again, it's comforting to know that the bloat I experienced this weekend wasn't a result of the 12 drinks and five-lbs burrito I consumed on Friday night, but rather the half cup of skim milk I consumed on Saturday. Bring on the questionably sanitary burritos!

Soooo . . . since dairy makes you gain weight, not eating it will make me skinny? If I cut out all dairy, I'll magically lose the 100lbs I need to loose to be considered healthy? Wow, thanks for that bit of garbage, Alicia. You're as about as knowledgeable and helpful as the lady in my office who lectures us about eating organic while wearing acrylic sweaters and bleaching her hair every week.

@elaborate bacon (princessprissypants): Yes, I bet you'd lose weight if you cut dairy. You would lose weight if you cut pretty much any entire category of food from your diet. But, specifically, think about it this way: Dairy is what mammals use to nourish their little ones--it is a high-calorie food designed to pack on the pounds. The argument is that adults aren't meant to intake dairy, and when they do, they pack on (sometimes unwanted) pounds.

@nanner36: Other species actually lose the ability to consume dairy in adulthood. Humans don't. And considering all the nutrients it contains it's unwise to label it as "bad" or "fattening" just because whole milk contains fat. I drink skim milk, which has fewer calories but the same benefits (if not more) as orange juice.

@Blueberry26: they lose the ability to digest it.

also, lactose intolerance is both based on genetic predisposition, and your body's tolerance to it as a result of exposure. you quit producing the enzyme to break down lactose (lactase) after a period of not being exposed to lactose. (i guess the length of time depends on the person). humans would lose the ability to digest it if they stopped intaking it--which is probably why alicia experienced the symptoms she did--she's lactose intolerant now. it is possible to surmise (but i don't know for 100% certainty) that if you fed your cat milk every day from a kitten, they would be able to tolerate lactose as an adult.

labratintraining, you're right. over time, societies that didn't have dairy in their diets have 'evolved' to stop producing the lactase. and intolerance in adulthood is mostly based on waning exposure and thus waning production of lactase.

@fjordtjie: I stopped drinking dairy milk for about two months, and then accidentally ordered a non-fat latte rather than a soy latte. I became seriously ill very quickly (though I didn't get "instantly fat"), and it was a relatively small amount of milk. I didn't entirely eliminate cheese, so I was eating some dairy. It really does make me question whether adults should consume dairy (especially fresh milk and cheese!) when at least some of us can lose the ability to process it so quickly.

@goldengirl11: most of the lactose of the milk is broken down when creating cheese, so it is a much more tolerable dairy product than straight milk. a latte (at least how we made it when i was a barista) was a lot (maybe 1.5 cups?) of milk in relation to the espresso, so i am not surprised you had such a reaction--that's quite a shock to your digestive tract!

there are a lot of things humans consume that we shouldn't. i think that dairy is probably one of the least questionable things on that list, especially when consumed in moderation. mcgriddle?

@UrbanAchiever: If you go & read the interview he's responding to the interviewer reminding him that he said a few years ago that there would never be a black president, except on tv. I think he was trying to make a joke, but it's also entirely possible that it's just racist. Given the context I'm inclined to the former but the latter would not surprise me.
