When I was 14, my mom told me that if I ever needed the Pill I should come to her. Of course, I didn't have sex until 11 years later, because I was and am a giant dork. If only she'd known how little she had to worry about... #sarahpalin

Since I read in VF that the only thing that Sarah Palin does at home is lock herself up in her bedroom, wear PJs and watch wedding shows, I can't be surprised that she doesn't know what the rest of her family is up to.

Okay, the source of all this is Levi Whatshisname, but still. #sarahpalin

What really kills me - it really rips me up - is when people think I'm abrasive, inconsiderate or ungrateful because I don't go outside in a bikini and wave to the paparazzi. Come on!"

She might be genuinely abrasive, but after "Speak," I find her refreshing and can sympathize with what she says. If there's a reason I wouldn't want to be famous, it's the fact that there are entire industries devoted to the concept of an adversarial (trashy) press. The paps are dead center. Some people court it because they have nothing else to offer (Lamas family, perhaps? Even by the standards of guilty-pleasure/stupid-but-fun Reality TV, that show looks overscripted/mind-numbingly embarassing.)

If I was minding my own business, smoking a fatty with a friend on my stoop, or was running around Hollywood dressed like a regular human being--with zits, an unmade-up face, and all--when a pap jumped out, snapped a photo, and landed me on a Worst Dressed List (worst dressed, for wearing dowdy, errand-appropriate attire to run an errand), I bet I'd seem "abrasive" to after a while too.

I can sympathize with her, her insecurities (in an industry that, to some extent, depends on finding flaws and magnifying them) and defensiveness.

Unless you're a hypocrite ("family values" congressional dickweeds who preach it without living it...or hell, even if they do both/aren't technically hypocrites), a criminal or an asshole (abusive parent....even then, probably not my business)...I dislike the idea that a person is no longer human or deserving of privacy once they become entertainers.

If the paparazzi embody that idea... I suppose it depends on the photo and what it's used for. What about humanizing photos (how many adorable pictures are there of celebrities and their children, even on this site)? Are those circumstances off limits? They still represent a violation of privacy.

What about that photo of Isla Fisher doing a cart wheel for her daughter ("bulgina"--snort)? That solidified my love of her and the wish that she'd get some better roles, but she was probably a little pissed, and I'd be too. (She handled it with good humor--damn, I wish she got another "Wedding Crashers" worthy role. Better.)

For all my complaints, I seriously wonder whether I would be the sort of fuck-nut stalkerazzi who all but scaled celebs' walls (that IS crime, yes?) to snap topless/nude pics in their backyards if I knew I'd be getting $20,000 for the photo.

How can anyone get a real job after being a celebrity trash pap, anyway, unless they stay in the tabloid industry forever? I guess the line between pap/photographer for less-tabloidy magazines like "People" is fine enough that they could. #sarahpalin

I can't believe I'm defending that POS Michael Lohan, who, of course, DID NOT TAKE GOOD CARE OF MY PRETTY, PRETTY GIRL, but he could have been looking for dancers who look like Dina, and Lindsay does look like Dina. #sarahpalin

Is anyone else tired of hearing Twilight stars snarking on the very movies that have made them ridiculously popular and wealthy? Yes, Rob the book was drivel, but it didn't stop you from signing the contract, doing some crunches and cashing the check. So, just let the Twilight tide roll over you and then do some deep, esoteric indie film to get back your cred. #sarahpalin

@Ulookinatmyjunk, JOC: I saw it more as "How am I ever going to live up to this image of perfection described in the book?!" rather than a snark. Though, in general, I really despise when people bite the hand that feeds them, like when Tim Burton scoffed that he doesn't read comics and Kevin Smith retorted "Anyone who saw the Batman movies could have told you that." #sarahpalin

@Ulookinatmyjunk, JOC: Nope! What I'm tired of is stars acting braindead by promoting movies that are obviously dreck as their best work ever. I've never heard of a Twilight star going so far as to say "Hey, I needed the paycheck," but that would be fine by me. I've definitely gotten the vibe of "I wound up getting more than I bargained for," which I can totally understand. I've seen the pictures of walls of cameras and microphones that follow those kids around, I'd be overwhelmed and abrasive, too. #sarahpalin

@LaComtesse: Meh. I feel that the weight part was more of an aside. He's an actor and should know about transformations people undergo to take on a role. You don't have to be a character, just play them believably. But perhaps I'm wrong. Reading without my morning coffee. #sarahpalin

@ladyfalcon is skin deep: I wish I could promote this twice. The series is a guilty pleasure (that's being nice) and incredibly successful on the sale of questionable teen-Byron, mopey, gooey, I-value-my-girlfriend-enough-to-hold-off-on-sex (wink at parents) romance. Doesn't mean the guy playing undead Adonis deserves to be driven into traffic by screaming fans ready to tear off his clothes.

(Also, yeah, I read his quote as, "Shit, I'm not ready to play Mr. Sixpack" too.)

I wish Pattinson well and find it comforting that there's a brain and a little humility in that beautiful head. I pity those kids--it IS overwhelming, it is a little embarrassing, and hell, you gotta start somewhere, right?

Hope they can all get on their feet in this industry without becoming another group of Miley Cyruses or Lohans. #sarahpalin

@Ulookinatmyjunk, JOC: I really don't think that's what's happening here. When I think about biting the hand that feeds, I think about Sarah Michelle Gellar refusing to do any Buffy press for the last two seasons, reportedly acting like an asshole on set, and then unceremoniously quitting. Pattinson and Stewart are both promoting the hell out of this movie- both of these movies- despite any reticence on their parts for the actual series. They're doing their jobs.

Also I don't think the above quote was snarking on the movies, I thought it was self-deprecating. #sarahpalin

Re: Springsteen yelling the wrong state. I went to a Christina Aguilera show a few years ago in Dallas with my sister, and she kept saying, "Hey Houston!", "I love you, Houston!", etc. People didn't really seem to mind, and I guess someone backstage corrected her during one of the (many) set/costume changes, and she apologized to the crowd. Mostly it was just funny. #sarahpalin

I just found out my not-boyfriend guy used to be friends with Russell Brand back when R.B. was just a drug-addicted neighborhood character, AND they would see Amy Winehouse play at their neighborhood pub before she was famous. Not fair not fair! #sarahpalin

I am shocked, SHOCKED to learn that the daughter of an outspoken anti-sex (outside of heterosexual marriage) religious conservative felt that she couldn't be open with her mother about her sexual status.
