I think Britney needs to have Dolly Parton adopt her.
Just imagine the makeover session.
Anya Christina Emmanuella Jenkins. Twenty years old. Born on the fourth of July — and don't think there weren't jokes about that my whole life, mister, 'cause there were. 'Who's our little patriot?' they'd say, when I was younger and therefore smaller and shorter than I am now.

The feeling you get when your brain finally lets your heart get in its pants.
Just imagine the makeover session.
I read this as makeout session at first, and my brain went to a baaaad place.

Now tagless for your comfort.
I think that embracing the trashiness would help. Supressing the trashiness just leads to the kind of embarrassing public meltdown we're seeing now.
I always appreciate a certain amount of humanity or weakness in my favorite celebrities. Look at Hugh Grant. Sheepishly admitting to fucking up can go a loooong way.
The common thread I see between her and ANS are (ore were) these marginally talented or pretty girls who are just stupid. They both struck me as desperate and friendless. But they earn oodles of dosh and end up manipulated, sad and lonely. Then bald or decomposing on a coroner's slab.
Ugh.

Shit's all sorts of different now.
Watched the Oprah Oscar Special.
Why is it whenever Sidney Poitier speaks, I cry?
God forbid I ever meet the man and he asks where the restroom is. He'll have to ask someone else besides the sobbing pile of goo.

'we all walk this earth feeling we are frauds. The trick is to be grateful and hope the caper doesn't end any time soon"
Why is it whenever Sidney Poitier speaks, I cry?
Just imagine dinners at home with his family, and he asks to pass the salt. His wife must long to institute an all-mime rule for him.
re Britney: you know you're a troubled celebrity when the papparazzi are worried about you.

Jesse, I love that within 10 posts you went from "OC = ridiculous episode ever" to OC montage makes me cry!

What is even happening?
Theodosia, insent.
I knew The O.C. was signing off this season, but I was surprised by all the talk on my flist yesterday, that they were signing off last night? Did you guys get a full season? Kat, did you watch it until the end?

I watched most of last season, to my dismay. This season, I watched most of december and some of january, when there was a break in Grey's Anatomy episodes.
This last season was actually good. Not great, not like season 1, but sweet and frothy. Taylor was a much better match for Ryan than Marissa would ever be. And that helped. Plus it went from angst to fun.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.
Jesse, I love that within 10 posts you went from "OC = ridiculous episode ever" to OC montage makes me cry!
But it was! And it did! Between the jump-forward from the previous episode to the several-years-spanning montage, it was ridic. And yet, somehow awesome.
Plei, everything happened. In short: Kirsten had the baby, IN THEIR OLD HOUSE IN BERKELEY, which the boys were trying to buy off the gay couple who live there now. Luckily, one of them was a midwife! And the Bullet flew the whole Julie-Bullet wedding up there, since Kirsten couldn't make it back. But Julie's pregnant with Frank's baby. And he got on the phone and told Julie she should marry him. But she decided not to marry anyone. Summer decided to go be an activist and not move to Providence with Seth, which was a good thing. Ryan and Taylor love each other, but she moved back to France. The ending montage included Julie's college graduation, Seth and Summer's wedding, and Ryan as an architect, stopping to ask some kid on the street if he needed any help. There were also flashbacks to Baby Ryan, at the Cohen's for the first time. Aw!

hip deep in pie
I don't even think they aired the final OC here last night. Not that I've watched for most of the season.
What's going on people?
