My little thought experiment / day dream*: I recruit a handful of down-in-the-mouth celebs, get them away from their icky boyfriends, overbearing fathers, and bad habits, and give them copious doses of bell hooks, Sylvia Plath, and bikini kill.
Britney Spears
Jessica Simpson
Mary-Kate Olsen
Mischa Barton
Kate Moss
Sienna Miller
most of the girls on Laguna Beach
Katie Holmes (too far gone?)
*This goes well with my plan to write a feminist alternative to He's Just Not That Into You.

you know I should probably *read* he's just not that into you ? before I comment on it! From the little you showed me, you're right that it's overall message seemed positive. I just wish the title was something like YOU're just that into YOU (so you don't need some guy who doesn't treat you with love and respect) or HE'S just a DUD (so dump him) .
Did you read that Maureen Dowd editorial in the times this weekend? She talks a little about The Rules . That is one scary book.
jessica simpson seems honestly happy with her life, and katie holmes would never know what to do with bikini kill, but i can see mary kate turning things around.
i, um, i don't really know anything about the rest of these people. sorry.
