Margaret Cho is absolutely nuts, she's having the same meltdown that Rosie O' Doughnuts had once her career tanked.
And I love her style: Gwen

Gwen Stefani's Harajuku girls have been getting a lot of attention lately, and I have to say that I am confused. I like Gwen Stefani, she's allright. She's very stylish, has a nice voice and a flat stomach. She is a rock star and quite good at it.
Now she has 4 things all together, the Harajuku Girls. I want to like them, and I want to think that they are great, but I am not sure if I can. I mean, racial sterotypes are really cute sometimes, and I don't want to bum everybody out by pointing out the minstrel show.
I think it is totally acceptable to enjoy the Harajuku girls because there are not that many other Asian people in the media and we have to take what we can get. Amos n' Andy had lots of fans didn't they?
At least it is a measure of visibility, which is much better than invisibility. Even though to me, a Japanese schoolgirl uniform is kind of like blackface, I am just in acceptance over it because something is better than nothing.
An ugly picture is better than a blank space, and it means one day we will have another display at the Museum of Asian Invisibilty, that groups of children will crowd around in disbelief, because once upon a time, we weren't there.

Or in Ms Cho's lap! : )
Who cares what a short, fat, angry, lesbian Bush-hater thinks?
... and she is a truly nice person. My daughter got to meet her at a Tommy Hilfeger (sp?) fashion show i LA in the mid nineties and she was absolutely gracious and humble (as a matter of fact she was worried that she didn't do a good enough job on their set). OTOH Cheryl Crow (sp?) was also there and was a stuck up beotch.
Well, I only saw them once, and they weren't in "school girl" outfits, but in cheerleader outfits. I didn't really understand why there were there at all, since she was doing her own version of "If I Were a Rich Man," from "Fidler on the Roof."
Somehow, it was different from when Topol did it...

That is what suprises me about Gwen too, she has been so famous for a very long time and is still gracious and kind. Very rare nowadays....

Not me, but I'm guessing it's right up Martin's alley!

I don't know anything in particular about Gwen Stefani's 'Harajuku Girls', but Harajuku is a district in Tokyo, where the 'Goth Lolita' look is popular. On Sunday's at 10 am, girls dressed up in their Goth Lolita costumes gather there and just hang out admiring each other's costumes. The guys are there admiring the girls, too.
I think she's jealous of Gwen and the girls
Didn't she date Quentin Tarantino before turning gay? That'll do it, ya know.
If she could have stuck it out another 2-3 years, those syndication profits could have made her rich!

She looks like her choker is too tight. Too bad that wasn't it.
