    You can't hardly walk around in Lima without a body guard unless you dress like a bum and are prepared not to wear any jewelry at all. This does not surprise me in the least. It is a beautiful country, but dangerous.

    Oh, geez....I thought the article was gonna be about how they were selling the fat to be used for biofuel!

    I don't understand why the Europeans couldn't get a better supply from US docs who do liposuction.

    Maybe American fat was too expensive?

    Once we have universal health care her scam is useless anyway, right?

    Finally: a renewable resource we can get behind. I knew if we waited long enough, keeping America's Deep South would pay off for the rest of us!

    With America being the highest per capita of obese people, I think we've found our new export industry.

    This story is fake. Everyone knows you can't lure fat people with job offers. All you need is a bag of Cheetos.

    If you see road signs for McHostel's, Widey's, or Kentucky Fat Chillin'?

    RUN. It's not that they got the signs from FailBlog. It's that your ass is about to be applied to Princess Caroline's face, and not in a good way.

    Obviously these people are not geniuses or they could have gone from "deranged murderers" to "South American Ultra Chic Liposuction Center" --and get paid TWICE.

    With this story, an all-new low has been reached in the depravity sweepstakes. What's sad is that the swiftest response to this wave of barbarity will be from the swarm of producers eager to make the next gore-fest from this story, not from an international community outraged by the sheer lunacy of what is alleged.

    On an up note, when that movie goes into production, Kirstie Alley may finally have a shot at a bona fide comeback.

    @RedLineRage: Sorry, Red Line. A classic case of "Good Angel versus Bad Angel," and in this case it was a draw.

    (Truth to tell, I was meeting a deadline and became blear-eyed from "exhaustion" (hitting the crack pipe, a recalcitrant tranny-hooker (you know how time-consuming that can be, etc.) I was mortified at my breach of Gawker etiquette and will face the charges with grace, dignity, and a phalanx of lawyers that would do a perp proud.
