That picture is the greatest thing ever in all of its bloddy-minded awfulness.

(xpost: I STILL STAND BEHIND THOSE WORDS, ALLY (with the addendum of Scott's stanky-ass corollory))

The Android Cat (Dan Perry), Thursday, 4 January 2007 18:27 (nineteen years ago)

goldie hawn is famous for being stanky.

scott seward (scott seward), Thursday, 4 January 2007 18:27 (nineteen years ago)

Tara Reid be stank.

If you fuck with Jimmy Mod, you call down the thunder (The Famous Jimmy Mod), Thursday, 4 January 2007 18:27 (nineteen years ago)

Gary Oldman - even through the silver screen, you could always smell him.

Do Not Feed The Crush (kate), Thursday, 4 January 2007 18:27 (nineteen years ago)

Ethan Hawke is another one who looks stanky--Uma Thurman must have high tolerance or a BO problem herself.

Allyzay Eisenschefter Pop You To The Extreme (allyzay), Thursday, 4 January 2007 18:28 (nineteen years ago)

lol they broke up?

If you fuck with Jimmy Mod, you call down the thunder (The Famous Jimmy Mod), Thursday, 4 January 2007 18:29 (nineteen years ago)

Nabs, what world do you live in where being really, really famous for being insane and locked away by a madman is better for an actual actress than, like, getting movie roles?

The world where Katie Holmes's face sells eight different magazines at the newsstand, something it was totally not accomplishing via her acting! I mean, two things to keep in mind here: (a) no matter how insane they are, there are still plenty of people in this country who are totally fascinated by them as the ultimate A-list couple, plus (b) you're talking about success as an actress, and I'm talking about public profile as a celebrity. The sole point here is that Katie Holmes is currently way more important now, public-consciousness-wise, than she was before she hooked up with Cruise.

nabisco (nabisco), Thursday, 4 January 2007 18:29 (nineteen years ago)

Ethan Hawke might edge out Brad Pitt, actually. he needs a 24 hour shower.

horseshoe (horseshoe), Thursday, 4 January 2007 18:29 (nineteen years ago)

(Also Pitt and Jolie gravitated towards each other because they were in the same sphere of celebrity, not because one was more famous than the other or one helped rehabilitate the other or anything like that; even when Jolie was "CRAZEE", she was the type of crazy that people thought was awesome as opposed to, say, Anna Nicole Smith's brand of pathetic-crazy.)

(xpost: Dude, remember when she was on "Dawson's Creek" and she was basically named the next "It Girl", kind of to the point where no one even knew Michelle Williams was also on that show?)

The Android Cat (Dan Perry), Thursday, 4 January 2007 18:30 (nineteen years ago)

I don't think Uma Thurman is stanky...also after they broke up, she looked amazing and radiant and he looked even more weaselly than he used to.

horseshoe (horseshoe), Thursday, 4 January 2007 18:30 (nineteen years ago)

nabisco the problem is yr not being catty enough for this thred.

If you fuck with Jimmy Mod, you call down the thunder (The Famous Jimmy Mod), Thursday, 4 January 2007 18:30 (nineteen years ago)

"Uma Thurman must have high tolerance or a BO problem herself."

she grew up hanging around buddhist monks. they have a vow of stinkiness or something.

scott seward (scott seward), Thursday, 4 January 2007 18:30 (nineteen years ago)

Also I bet that Laurence Fishburne smells like assfeet.

The Android Cat (Dan Perry), Thursday, 4 January 2007 18:30 (nineteen years ago)

Yeah nabisco, Katie's work as a celebrity will translate into lotsa juicy movie roles*

*just kidding, again! Dude, you are digging yourself one big hole to crawl out of.

VALLEY OF BLIZZARDZ (Mr.Que), Thursday, 4 January 2007 18:31 (nineteen years ago)

And Ally, you could trot out the "sexist" line if I was claiming either of them were somehow coattailing men to fame, but that's not what I'm saying -- all I'm saying is that tabloid-romance coverage can do really big things for people's public profiles, and as much for either party. A tabloid romance is like an entire other movie for you to star in! And I'd estimate nearly as much money has been spent following these two couplings via magazine as has been spent seeing any of its members big films!

nabisco (nabisco), Thursday, 4 January 2007 18:31 (nineteen years ago)

xpost Jimmy, she has been married to both Oldman AND Hawke though--or are you trying to claim that the BO is WHY both marriages ended??

xpost Success at being a celebrity gains very little for Katie Holmes, which is why I'm not getting your argument. Serial killers are also well-known; are they successful?

Allyzay Eisenschefter Pop You To The Extreme (allyzay), Thursday, 4 January 2007 18:31 (nineteen years ago)

i imagine brad pitt smelling like drakkar noir.

ian johnson's mom + jack bauer 2gether 4evah (Carey), Thursday, 4 January 2007 18:32 (nineteen years ago)

she's not really a successful celebrity these days, though, because everyone feels bad for her/is worried about her/thinks she's kind of pathetic, right? (Holmes, I mean.)

horseshoe (horseshoe), Thursday, 4 January 2007 18:33 (nineteen years ago)

Drakkar Noir-as-a-quick-fix-for-not-having-showered OTM.

horseshoe (horseshoe), Thursday, 4 January 2007 18:34 (nineteen years ago)

Uh, so then stop claiming that fixin' themselves up with some fine young menfolk lifted two already A-list, known-name stars into, uh, A-list, known-name stars? If your argument was "Romance sells tabloids!" then it's a pretty dumb, obvious argument that doesn't warrant a paragraph or two about how hooking up with some men (neither of which had great ie very well liked public profiles prior) actually helped elevate either woman.

Allyzay Eisenschefter Pop You To The Extreme (allyzay), Thursday, 4 January 2007 18:34 (nineteen years ago)

The way Jolie is branded by the media (ex as some kind of elegant princess) isn't her fault though, unless it's her fault for having excellent posture and looking at ease on the red carpet AND on tops of buses. She has incredibly good bearing = a huge part of elegance, whether your reputation is founded on it or not.

Laurel (Laurel), Thursday, 4 January 2007 18:34 (nineteen years ago)

allz: perhaps she is attracted to their musk and then repelled when she realizes they can't turn it on/off like a skunk?

If you fuck with Jimmy Mod, you call down the thunder (The Famous Jimmy Mod), Thursday, 4 January 2007 18:34 (nineteen years ago)

xpost, horseshoe OTM about Holmes, this is what I mean--it doesn't translate into any kind of work for Holmes, and will not until she leaves Cruise, no one will touch her. So, she is somewhat more famous now but in what way is this helping her at all? Who cares?

xpost again LOL LOL @ skunks

Allyzay Eisenschefter Pop You To The Extreme (allyzay), Thursday, 4 January 2007 18:35 (nineteen years ago)

nicholas cage probably smells a bit goaty

rrrobyn, breeze blown meadow of cheeriness (rrrobyn), Thursday, 4 January 2007 18:35 (nineteen years ago)

i just imagine katie holmes is thinking how awesome her career is going to be after she divorces cruise a la Kidman and Cruz.

Or else all she really wants is to go shoe shopping and drink coffee all day while being lazy, which I really aspire to.

ian johnson's mom + jack bauer 2gether 4evah (Carey), Thursday, 4 January 2007 18:36 (nineteen years ago)

Nabisco, you are the one who said that if it wasn't for Cruise she would battling SMG for rolels in horror films. I thought you were talking about Katie as a working actress, not as a celebrity. Everyone agrees that more people know who KT is now bc of TC, that is not the issue.

You were also wrong about Angelina Jolie's profile. Before Brad there were tons of pictures of her with Maddox and doing her UN thing. I wonder, really, what she gets from Brad. He doesn't seem to be the sharpest tack in the box.

Also, what the fuck with denigrating SMG? It's not her fault that studios won't give her a chance to do anything non Grudgelike.


lots of xposts again

Mary (Mary), Thursday, 4 January 2007 18:36 (nineteen years ago)

I imagine Keanu Reeves and Prince smelling really nice.

ian johnson's mom + jack bauer 2gether 4evah (Carey), Thursday, 4 January 2007 18:37 (nineteen years ago)

She gets cock from Brad. Next question.

If you fuck with Jimmy Mod, you call down the thunder (The Famous Jimmy Mod), Thursday, 4 January 2007 18:37 (nineteen years ago)

As to the rest of this thread, it's as freaking bizarre as that painting up there that got me reading it.

People talking about whether Jolie seems "genuine" or not - based on what? Honestly! Outside the ILX Celebrity stalking thread, not one of you has even met her. So every single conclusion every one of us has made about her is based on her public image. Where does that come from? Photographs. Articles. Film clips. Etc.

I doubt she has actually changed anything except her publicist. And she and Pitt must have a damned good one to pull off this transformation.

I dislike her public personna - both of them, the early KERAZEEE goth Jolie, and the new Homebreaker Turned Mother Theresa Jolie - but that's just me.

Do Not Feed The Crush (kate), Thursday, 4 January 2007 18:37 (nineteen years ago)

I bet Robin Williams stinks of mansweat.

Boom Dershowitz (noodle vague), Thursday, 4 January 2007 18:38 (nineteen years ago)

I mean your idea of the pantheon hierarchy up there means k-fed is in the A-List whilst DeNiro and Hoffman have never been on it.

SUPERMARKET TABLOIDS ....ACTUALLY MAKE LESS MONEY THAN THE MOVIES!!!!!

TOMB07 (TOMBOT), Thursday, 4 January 2007 18:38 (nineteen years ago)

The sole point here is that Katie Holmes is currently way more important now, public-consciousness-wise, than she was before she hooked up with Cruise.

In the same way as Natascha Kampusch, right.

Joe Isuzu's Petals (Rock Hardy), Thursday, 4 January 2007 18:38 (nineteen years ago)

i just imagine katie holmes is thinking how awesome her career is going to be after she divorces cruise a la Kidman and Cruz.

I hope this is true, but she always looks a little...faraway these days. she makes me sad.

xpost: I feel sure that Prince smells AMAZING.

horseshoe (horseshoe), Thursday, 4 January 2007 18:39 (nineteen years ago)

delta burke and loni anderson are huge stars

spectre (gear), Thursday, 4 January 2007 18:39 (nineteen years ago)

I think Robin Williams probably smells a lot more like the way aspirin tastes

TOMB07 (TOMBOT), Thursday, 4 January 2007 18:39 (nineteen years ago)

This thread's speed has made me Captain Obvious.

VALLEY OF BLIZZARDZ (Mr.Que), Thursday, 4 January 2007 18:39 (nineteen years ago)

watching bill & ted's the other day for the first time in ages totally made me re-evaluate keanu as a actor. he is way better than most people give him credit for. yeah, i said that.
land of the xpost

rrrobyn, breeze blown meadow of cheeriness (rrrobyn), Thursday, 4 January 2007 18:39 (nineteen years ago)

I am not normally into blondes but I imagaine Pitt has a nice little chubby.

ian johnson's mom + jack bauer 2gether 4evah (Carey), Thursday, 4 January 2007 18:39 (nineteen years ago)

i'm just surprised the dad from 'alf' hasn't landed the role of a supervillain in the next batman flick

spectre (gear), Thursday, 4 January 2007 18:40 (nineteen years ago)

man, Keanu was so great in Thumbsucker. he was the only good part of that movie.

ian johnson's mom + jack bauer 2gether 4evah (Carey), Thursday, 4 January 2007 18:40 (nineteen years ago)

i'm in teenage-crush-love with him all over again

rrrobyn, breeze blown meadow of cheeriness (rrrobyn), Thursday, 4 January 2007 18:41 (nineteen years ago)

haha, you want to come to the UK where hooking up with a rich and famous man is a career aspiration. There's a whole culture of women-who-go-out-with-Premiership-footballers, where (1) that's all they do and (2) people like and admire them and want to be them.

The difference being that these girls were pretty z-list to start with, if that, and they have used subsequent press coverage to their advantage. Possible exception = Victoria Beckham, whose post-Spice fame is surely built around who she is married to rather than anything she's actually done, but she was arguably more famous than him to start with.

(mega xpost - yeah, K-Fed is a male American WAG)

ailsa (ailsa), Thursday, 4 January 2007 18:42 (nineteen years ago)

Robin Williams smells like Valtrex.

ian johnson's mom + jack bauer 2gether 4evah (Carey), Thursday, 4 January 2007 18:42 (nineteen years ago)

Success at being a celebrity gains very little for Katie Holmes, which is why I'm not getting your argument.

I DIDN'T SAY IT WAS ABOUT GAIN, Y'ALL ILLITERATE FREAKS -- haha okay well maybe parenthetically, but this coversation was about Big Changes in Public Perception (not income), which was what I was talking about re: Jolie. (I said "and acting career" parenthetically cuz I think entrenching yourself in the public consciousness via tabloid can help seal the deal a little as far as what echelon of star you're gonna be perceived as from then on. And Angelina's big tabloid-royalty exposure moment sealed in her celebrity kinda at the top of its game!)

Actually wait I give up on this cause I'm not sure everyone can read? We were talking about public perception of people like Jolie (in horrible paintings of SUPERMARKETS), not acting careers. I opined parenthetically that Holmes now has this huge public awareness and weird perception, whereas if she hadn't married Cruise I'm not sure her acting career would have provided anything similar. Y'all agree with that, and yet for some reason have an issue? (Sex-wise we could just as easily point out that Cruise's public image would be way different and smaller without Holmes, though no-Holmes might have meant no-Freakout and saved him some trouble.)

Anyway whatever, misread how you like.

nabisco (nabisco), Thursday, 4 January 2007 18:42 (nineteen years ago)

he is very, very good at the naif role. and he is pretty.

xpost about Keanu Reeves.

horseshoe (horseshoe), Thursday, 4 January 2007 18:42 (nineteen years ago)

but this coversation was about Big Changes in Public Perception

lol the conversation is abt how awesome thaat painting is or is not amirite?

ILX IS BACK AND I LOVE IT

Hoosteen (Hoosteen), Thursday, 4 January 2007 18:43 (nineteen years ago)

Kate is pretty OTM; I think there's a caveat there in that I believe the culturally-accepted definition of "genuine", regardless of whether it is applied to celebrities or "ordinary people", is a myth.

I bet Rosie O'Donnell smells like hot ham.

The Android Cat (Dan Perry), Thursday, 4 January 2007 18:43 (nineteen years ago)

Nabisco, you should go get a nice glass of lemonade and relax.
