Oh good Lord, who put Zhang Ziyi in that colour? No one, repeat NO ONE should ever be allowed to leave the house in anything remotely resembling lime green.
It was a touch too bright to be lime. I say, as one who frolics madly in fields of lime green clothing and looks good doing it.
However, I still adored the dress.
I'm just happy that the fad for beige formalwear seems to have passed. Very few people can pull of beige. Those who can, oddly, tend to be those who can also pull off lime green.

It's a paraphrase of Catherine Deneuve, who said something about how a woman of a certain age has to choose between being very thin (i.e. having a nice butt) and looking gaunt on the face, or being a little more well-padded and having a beautiful face and a chubby butt.
The French have been saying it for a long time, apparently; Olivia de Havilland mentions it in her memoirs as something she heard in the 1960s.

Did anyone else watch The Colbert Report last night? I was wondering if he was going to address MLK Day, and he did so, brilliantly.

I loved how he could barely maintain his persona while interviewing Stephanopoulos. I gotta say that those are my favorite interviews, where the guest thinks the Colbert persona is so funny that he cracks up Colbert himself. I also love the ones where the guest totally doesn't get it and gets angry, though.

It boggles me that people would make a television appearence without at least getting an idea of the show is going to be like. I was kinda bummed when it turned out that Barney Frank just didn't get the joke for real (granted, that was a taped appearence rather than an in-studio one, but even so, a politician who's been under the media microscope for being out and then ending up in a scandal because of it should know better).
I think Colbert needs to go out on the street more, in full persona, and see how many people think he's for real and how many don't. He might get punched, though.

I loved Colbert's line about how, if George decided to run for office himself, he'd have to have one hell of a long bumper sticker.
