you know of who I speak

Most fucked up thing of the day: seeing the lovely Pro-Anorexia community, complete with a jack ass post about how someone wants to be as thin as a House Elf. Gods above, I hope that was just a nicely twisted joke. The whoel thing is rather creepy, a combination of people with genuine sadness, and that moronic brand of folk who write as if they've learned language from AOL chatrooms.

The actress in question, I do believe, is none other than Brooke Shields.

Or it may have been Mariah Carey. I recall her saying something equally anti-profound as well.

Yeah, I thought it was Brooke Shields. What a nit.

not exactly. . .

the quote came out of a satirical article on Mariah Carey from some web publication. It was then picked up by the mainstream press. But she never actually said it. Check it out here: http://www.snopes.com/quotes/carey.htm

mea culpa...

Hmm. Well, I stand corrected... But I do recall Brooke Shields saying something -- and not in a farcical article -- along the lines of "Smoking kills, and if you are killed, you'll lose a very important part of your life." Which may also be a fraud. But it is Brooke Shields, after all. So if she did say such, I wouldn't be at all surprised.
