In reply to Demi Moore's Ages-Old Empire of Dirt
The previous post by the ever-insightful MND touches on the status crime that is ravaging this great country of ours. I am speaking, of course, of the felony being committed on a daily basis, right here beneath our very noses--people are getting old! This toxic tidal wave has even soaked the very foundation of our culture--our celebrity elite--weakening us all in the process.

What can you do, in this, our moment of challenge? Man the parapets of public opinion! Support intrepid souls like Demi "Less-Is-Never" Moore, who dare to ask the necessary questions--"How am I supposed to look?!?!?"

Those words will live for an eternity, right next to "Give me liberty or give me death!"* (and by "death" I mean some form of life in which I look really young for my age, despite that I have passed into the Great Beyond), or "We have nothing to fear but fear itself. Unless, of course, you count the fear of getting old, which we really don't have to fear. So long as our insurance covers elective plastic surgery and the like."

These maxims are our compasses, our North Star. And Ms. Moore, by flinging herself into the conflagration that is Ageism, has turned her seemingly vacuous existence into a cause celebre. She has dived on the socio-cultural grenade, she has fallen on the existential sword staring us all directly in the face, all by giving voice to the only real question of the ages: "How am I supposed to look?"

For once, dear Demi, you look just fine. In fact, you have never sounded better.

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.

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.

@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: As a 45 yr old (babe ;-), I like what she said too. The sooner these young (my assumption) twits realize that age creeps up on you as you go, the better. It's not like you wake up one day, and look old (although sometimes it can feel that way ;-).

@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.)

It occurs to me that there is an upcoming issue of Spooge or Jizz or some such magazine that will be doing a pictorial on the the women of Tiger Woods. And the good money says that the title will be something along the lines of "The Ladies and the Tiger" or "Wood Nymphs: A Tasty Pictorial Four Holes Short of a Round."

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.

There was long an (alleged) rumor that the Enquirer and AMI's other gossip rags went easy on Arnold Schwarzenegger's spicy (and allegedly gropey) past when he was running for governor of California in exchange for keeping him involved with the company's muscle magazines. Synergy!

When you can't trust the journalistic standards of the publisher of Weekly World News, who can you trust?

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.
