    In reply to Demi Moore's Ages-Old Empire of Dirt
    I'm 49. I think you're misunderstanding Moore's response, which is natural, because you don't have her perspective. Saying "I'm 47, how am I supposed to look?" is saying, "I'm fine with my age and how I look, but you seem to have an expectation that I should look some other way. Why?" It's not letting it get to her, it's asking a question I'm glad she asked. Unfortunately, it seems nearly impossible to get people to question the assumption that everyone must want to be 22.

    Demi looks amazing in that photo, for a 47-year old woman.

    Unfortunately, she looks haggard for a 22-year old starlet, as that is the age women are supposed to resemble in Hollywood.

    Old? Demi looks like she's about to go through Pre-Raphaelitopause. Is that a photo or a painting?

    Foster: Sorry that you're freezing! I love your gossip roundups. I used to rarely read these, but I'm hooked on your rarefied style.

    You guys should come down to the Puerto Vallarta area. I went to an amazing wedding on the beach last evening, and everyone was barefoot. Idyllic doesn't even begin to describe it. All the East Coasters were dreading their return flights home.

    Then again, our summers are hot and sweltering, like all the circles of Hell combined, so Mother Nature shits on us, too.

    If Demi is going to live her life on Twitter, then she'll need to respond to the twits and I rather love what she
    said.

    Gossip: a friend of mine from L.A. used to work for her, years ago, and said she was the wildest, most uninhibited, sexxxual person she'd ever known.

    @Banjo-Sea Kitten: What exactly is "all that work"? Getting a boob job isn't what kept her slim, which is what most people have truck with. Both she and Courtney Cox seem to be victims of the "how dare this bitch stay skinny!" brigade.

    @marciax3: there was a rumor that Demi had lots of work done several years ago, which she has denied. (I
    deleted that from my comment.)

    Courteney Cox is starting to look just plain weird, however.

    I hold no grudges against those who stay fit and healthy. I do it myself. Yet if I were famous and my face and body scrutinized this way, I'd be tempted to go under the knife, yep.

    @Banjo-Sea Kitten: The trick is really, truly, honest to God not giving a shit about anything but your own contributions and fulfillment. Of course, this is easier to do when you're not living in the public eye.

    Hollywood will never change... I love old movies (I'm a TCM junkie) and the age gaps between men and women were significantly greater way back when... and it was never remotely an issue. (Kind of like if almost every movie these days had romantic leads like Entrapment.)

    In reply to Does the Horrible Beard Get in the Way When Brangelina Have Sex?
    Maybe I'm the only person that thinks this but despite Jolie's in your face sex appeal and Pitt's sexy boy reputation and abs, I find it hard to imagine that sex between them is sexy in any way. I think they each lack a sort of earthiness that comes with good sexiness and that beard does not increase the earthiness factor in any way.

    I haven't lived in the states in a while, but is $13 an hour actually considered 'good money' in NYC these days? If so, does everyone still live with their parents and eat intermittently?

    @Lysergic Asset: According to the Living Wage Calculator, $13 an hour would count as a 'living wage' though it depends on exactly where in NYC one lives.

    I think Brangelina (which to me sounds like some bran-based Tang) would be treated like the word "couple" in the AP Stylebook, which, I'm pretty sure means it's singular when referring to them as one unit (The Brangelina has to deal with that beard during sex) and when "couple" is used in the sense of two individuals together, it's plural (Brangelina aren't married, they're just living in beard-y sin).

    Hugh Grant has never been married. I know, because I send mail proposing to him frequently and he always turns me down.

    Brad Pitt always grows that billy-goat beard when he's souring on his woman. He did the same thing in the last year or two of his marriage to Jennifer Aniston. I wonder if it's in order to turn them off him physically? That's probably the last thing to go given he's not much of a catch intellectually.

    Angelina had a tummy tuck after the twins (which she has admitted to). First thing the doctors ask you is: "you know there's no more kids after this, right?" Because they remove the blown-out muscles so there is not enough muscles left for a baby to expand. So I think she's letting these stories happen, but the only children they will continue to have will be adopted ones.
