@SheelaNaGig: Yeah, well, a couple o' girls can dream! The funny thing is I was prepared to hate her, but I really didn't. I particularly liked her dressing down of Simon. She did it so much better than the screechy Kara, who I really cannot stand.

@GeekSpice: Could just be she likes being an entertainer and an artist.

I actually thought Mrs. Beckham looked really pretty last night.

@pichou: I am sure I have a superficial understanding of the meaning of the veil, as do most westerners. And I don't assume she is trying to provoke a reaction — that point was my reaction to the post which proposed that there was an activist purpose to her wearing the veil. I would never engage in a personal attack…

@thewitchandthemoll: I don't see her hair covered in the music videos — I thought the point was that this is something new that she is doing, and that is what is drawing fire. I am not talking about either, really. What I am saying is that (a) public, provocative figures put themselves out there for scrutiny and (b)…

I suspect the police report is fairly dry, and he certainly wasn't likely to give the school a vivid account of what happened, so I wouldn't be so quick to judge the school. They have to balance the fact that this occurred at a bar when he was "off-duty." Also, do we know if he was convicted of anything? It may be…

"if Diam's is using the hijab to draw awareness to the growing intolerance for Islam in France, perhaps we could see her embrace of religious symbols as a logical extension of her activism."

@Squabble: Bravo on the slactivism

@Selwyn: Love it! You made it all meta and stuff.

I thought it was kind of fun and cute. It certainly didn't do anything about breast cancer, but the confusion from the boys on my list wasn't without its charms.

Who is the guy with her? I recognize him but don't know why.

@k122n: yes, except for Eli Roth, who seemed to have a nice twinkle in his eye.

That musical performance redefined the term lackluster

Eli Roth is not gay. He has spoken about this.

Screw Barbie-toe. This is what happiness looks like.

@Lymed: He's a great choice. Picture-perfect and actually has depth and character.

@lizyfizy: I have had just one full-on orgasm that I would call directly G-spot related. It was with a guy who was very, um, interestingly curved. I'm not confused at all, so, yeah, fuck you CNN Health!

@MegiEr: I said the same thing about all the tweets about Brittany Murphy. It's tasteless and tacky and seems like an effort to draw attention to the twitterer more than anything else. Send a note to the family if you really knew her; and if you have a good point to make (like S. Ronson's) make it; otherwise, really,…

@BAngieB: I suspect you are right and that this is just anecdotal, but there does seem to be a clique of ladies who love ladies and lots and lots of cocaine there.

@SlayBelle: I would put it in the "terminal famewhore" category.
