I agree completely. Her ego, ungraciousness, and desperate attention seeking are off-putting

But Cher was no boy toy, she was, and remains, a glamazon. Cher’s costumes were meant to be glamourous and entertaining, like an old-Vegas showgirl, while Madonna’s early looks were more titillating street urchin. Both sexy, yes, but Cher came across as powerful, while Madonna was submissive.

There’s only one thing I will give her. She was one (repeat, one) of the first few women that didn’t apologize for, or explain her sexuality.

No, she wasn’t. She auditioned and was cut immediately.

she fucked up music for women because after her, women felt like they had to remove their clothing to perform

There is not one thing on the musical planet that Madonna pioneered in. What did she do exactly? It certainly wasn’t her sound (ripped from black musicians), it wasn’t her look (stolen from Marilyn Monroe), it wasn’t her dance moves (swiped from the gay underground), it wasn’t her voice (built out of nothing by…

At the time this letter was written Madonna had just delivered an abysmal, embarrassingly amateurish performance in the overwrought, laughably bad Basic Instinct ripoff Body Of Evidence. It was an obvious ploy to become the new Sharon Stone. So it seems she was aspiring to achieve mediocrity and fell far far short of…

It’s so unequivocally frustrating to read that ... Sharon Stone has the film career I’ll never have. Not because I want to be [her] because I’d rather die...

It seems pretty clear to me he didn’t know who she was when he pulled her over. You can tell from how nervous he gets when he realizes.

The immediate change of tone in his voice when he realizes who she is.

Tom Green was not funny that’s why.

I told her I chose very unsupportive friends.

People say the most awful things to people with cancer. Well, they say the most awful things all the time to everyone, but you really notice it when you’re covered in scabs from chemo injections. A friend of mine looked me deeply in the eyes and asked, “What have you done to bring this into your life?” I told her I…

That’s not really true in Hollywood. If you have cancer, you’re seen as a liability no matter your sex, as fucked up as that is.

No.

No sympathy for this guy, but it’s interesting that his remarks as quoted above show at least a hint of self-awareness. Let’s hope he resolves to be a better person, though I won’t exactly be holding my breath on that one.

ACTUALLY know who would be perfect is Zane Malik He’s half Pakistani and has name recognition

Something that was glossed over: will Smith is the genie?? Fuck this movie, then. He has no talent and yet keeps on getting cast in these movies. My only hope is the genie is CGIed enough that I don’t have to see the furrowed brow/puppy dog eye look that’s his go to ‘emotional’ face. Pathetic.

The story of Aladdin comes from 1001 Arabian nights. And that work is actually a collection of stories from throughout the middle east and India. The Aladdin story wasn’t even an original part of the 1001 Arabian nights. It was added by a French author in the 1800s. It’s no more authentically Arab than The Jungle…

IRANIANS ARE NOT PERSIANS. They only use that word because “Iranian” became a scary thing during the Ayatollah’s anti-American stance in the 70s.
