It’s sort of the like the NCAA grift. The IOC gets billions in TV money without having to pay for the stadiums, the same way that the NCAA takes in TV money without paying athletes.

The Hollywood Reporter now reports that she committed suicide in 2012, which makes this whole story even more horrible.

For the sake of honesty, I’ll tell you now that (unlike Ellie) I am not a natural redhead. I’ve been dyeing it regularly and convincingly for the last decade, though, which gives me a lot of insight into the way people treat redheads vs. the way they treat non redheads.

Oh my god Bobby, never stop writing song parodies.
