Diablo Cody's funny old morals

Female Jackie D | Category: Women

The blogger who used to strip and just won an Oscar for Best Original Screenplay (Juno) got all angry and shy about wearing a pair of million dollar shoes to the Oscars. In the end, she ditched the shoes in protest and wore some flats that made Amy Winehouse's bloody ballerina slippers look high class. I think Todd puts it best:

Paying you $20 to grind on my lap doesn't seem to be a problem, but wearing a pair of $1 million shoes for three hours could irreparably damage your self-respect? Oh I see. Now that you put it that way.

I was more concerned that Betty Rubble had a dress stolen.

She is a freak and how many freaks make good decisions? A stripper? Not a good decision based on her boobs. That dress? Nuff said. Her shoes seem liek the worst of her problems.

Yikes... whole lotta hate goin' on in the comments section of that link. Think someone should tell those kids that Ms. Cody might not be the first person to take her (or his) clothes off to get a break in H'wood?

My wife is nagging me to see this, since it kind of looks like something we might like - but I'm going to wait for cable, because after seeing the clips on the promo trailer I can't believe that everyone thinks it's flat - out hilarious. The scene where she tells her parents is really ridiculous - come on, does anyone think that any parents would respond in that jokey, Henny Youngman manner?

Besides Norman Lear? Probably not.
