re: the girl thanking Kate Hudson for being in Almost Famous....someone, please, explain to me the iconic appeal of this movie? I saw it, it was ok, I barely remember it. I really don't understand why it inspired such feeling in some people? I can barely muster indifference but I can see that some people just really connected to it, and it drives me nuts that I just don't get it.
@PrettyPrettyPrincess: I really like it...but not because of Kate Hudson. I think all the other actors are fantastic and I like the whole "behind the music" feel. That said, I really wish Sarah Polley would have stayed on as Penny Lane, because she would have been wonderful.
I'm sure a lot of guys (and struggling actors) envy Robert Pattinson, but I just feel bad for him at this point. Random people jumping on you and kissing you on a public street is not cool.
After 1 sorry week of sleep deprivation after his child was born, Tom Brady is ready to get back to "his normal sleep schedule"? Don't give me another reason to dislike you, oh whiny one.
@GirlFailer: I know. That comment is ridiculous, especially since he already has another kid so he can't claim to be a clueless 1st-time dad. Perhaps he's not as into fatherhood as he claims, no?
@mipsy6: I doubt he he was terribly involved with nighttime feedings of his first son, so I can buy the cluelessness a tiny bit. But more likely they have a night nanny. I wouldn't have minded having one of those once in a while. . .
First of all, it takes six months to shoot Big Love? Last season was only ten episodes long. That's ridic. Secondly, if I were the type to whine over a spoiler, I'd be whining right now. But I'm not going to whine, because you could fax me the scripts for the entire upcoming season of Big Love and I still wouldn't be able to blink without rewinding the DVR to see what I missed.
I'm reeeeaaallly starting to think they need to find a somewhere for Jon and, like, place him in it.
I mean, is anyone else hearing screaming warning bells?
Also, Tiger. *shakes head*
How horribly sad this had so much to do with your having a poor self-image about your own looks, when so ironically you're not only the best golfer in the world, but also (imo) one of its most handsome men.
(Well, were, at least. Behavior doesn't necessarily change the features, but it certainly changes the posture. I shall remember you as I fangirled you last, laughing and golfing with Jimmy Fallon on his show.)
@Rooo sez BISH PLZ: Oh wow, reading your comment just made me soooo happy. Because it means my efforts to block out the name of Jon Gosselin have finally been successful.
I didn't even notice there was a post about him till I read your comment.
@amazoncowgirl: Ahaha. I should adopt your reading habits.
(Sorry to wave it at you though, even a peek. It's just - the more I read about his current antics, the jumpier I get about his kids -- after all, they'll be running the country someday when you and I may need AARP or some such and could be at their mercy.)
@Rooo sez BISH PLZ: I think his self-image is probably just fine, if unrelenting narcissism can be thought of as fine. This woman said he got married for his *public* image. Which makes sense, really. His sport's image is the wholesome, conservative, country club family man thing. Not known (at least to outsiders) for its hard-partying playboys. It wouldn't surprise me in the least if he married Ms. Nordegren to continue to fit that mold and keep those endorsement deals rolling in.
@Gavagirl: "This woman said he got married for his *public* image. "
With all due respect, and certainly seeing your point as to wholesome conservatism and endorsements,
1) I don't know who 'this woman' is and why she's sufficiently qualified to know all the reasons he married his wife such that we should take her word for it unquestioningly, and
2) It's been my experiential observation that very frequently people who marry people for their public image - which can happen irrespective of whether they're a sufficiently public figure that endorsements are at issue - are equally frequently dealing with self-esteem issues of their own and so are marrying those other people in part to boost what they feel are their own 'substandard' (by their own evaluation) images, public or otherwise.
None of which, of course, justifies infidelity, let alone on such a flagrant scale.
