Post-modern psycho babble in a nut shell. This loser has "struggled her whole life" until she seeks therapy. The therapist helps her "uncover" deep secrets from her past which may not have even taken place (she even admits they may not have taken place). Next step: Get on the horn and tell your Mom that your Dad molested you as a child. Sounds like an old ATT commercial, doesn't it?
So now her Mom is the bad guy for not cleaning up the pile of crap that Heche just dumped on her doorstep after "she had gone through so much work to heal."
The pop culture religion of the Post-Modern world is that self and experience equate to God. So in this loser's twisted world, her mother was a bit player who was expected to play her part and help her be "healed" of an event she's not even sure occurred.
To quote my favorite movie, Miller's Crossing, she's one sick twist.
Jack? Oh, JOHN Kennedy. Thanks for the spell check. Should keep you busy around here. Some have interesting grammer on their home pages. Lot's of work here for you.
You Say Tomato, I Say Tomãto
Maybe that was his third personality speaking - the horse's a__ she's become.
What if one of these celebrities who go out and blow their mouths about alleged abuse from their past at the hands of their parents were to be sued by the people they are slandering? Wouldn't that be an interesting watch on Court TV?
She's so "tolerant" amd "comapssionate"!! Especially when she's just stuffed her nose with
"something " the only thing that makes her able to live with herself and/or all of herselves.
WHO CARES???
Isn't that always the easy way out for some of these folks. Excuses, excuses.
By the looks of it, quite a few of us are interested. Why did you read this?
She 'discovers' memories of being raped in half-a-dozen different ways, for years, by her Baptist choir director father who is now dead - of AIDS - having turned to homosexualty after leaving his family.
So, poor little Ann turns to promiscuity, drugs and booze to 'escape the shame' of being her dead father's rape victim. To cope with her shame she secretly adopts another persona and establishes a fantasy life which she lives in for years. All the while she's auditioning for jobs, acting on TV, being a slut, drugging it up and generally being a typical Hollywood show-biz citizen, but no one knows about her fantasy life as a Goddess or Princess or whatever she claims she was when she talked to God and all the rest of this New Age drivel she spouts. Along the way, poor Ann meets Ellen DeGerenes and voila! True love. Yada yada yada it doesn't work out (surprise) and then, Ann's voices tell her to 'take a hit of Ecstasy' to meet a spaceship yada yada yada. Are you laughing out loud yet? I was at this point.
Finally, a day in the hospital and 30 years of 'insanity' are...poof!...gone. Wow. Who needs shrinks and meds? Now, Ann's pregnant, married to some photographer. That'll last. What a total crock this nutcase hands us and insults our intelligence by expecting anyone outside of Hollyweird to buy it.
Ann is now a lifelong professional victim and blames every stupid thing she's ever done (whoring around, drugs) on her long-dead, gay, Bapist daddy and by inference, mommy. Boo Hoo for poor little abused Ann. The idiotic fantasy world she 'created' is right out of a second-rate novel and her taking a hit of Ecstasy to get to the spaceship is such a thinly veiled attempt to cover herself for a self-inflicted drug overdose that it's not even funny anymore, just plain insulting. "I was insane for most of my life but I'm fine now" says poor little Ann, the now-and-forever victim. Gee Ann, how would you know?
There are lots of very real childhood victims of parental abuse, sexual and otherwise and maybe Ann Heche is one of them, but we'll never know that for sure, as she said. Her use of that unknowable abuse to explain her whole sordid life is a little too pat for me to buy into. The episode as 'a temporary lesbian' with Ellen DeGerenes is just another attempt at debauchery in my opinion, and the vast publicity it generated for her didn't hurt at all, especially since 99% of it was positive.
Now, Ann is a recovered insanity victim, too. Of course, we only have her word on this as she never told her many therapists about the fantasy life and no one ever knew of the alleged sexual abuse, either.
I find this woman disgusting in her adoption of victimhood status to relieve her of any personal responsibility for her life and the many negative things she's indulged in. That she now expects sympathy and probably support and applause for being 'brave' and 'telling all' is galling.
A nobody with minimal talent that should disappear from sight but in Hollywood's twisted mindset, will probably be a huge 'star' or at least be treated as if she were. Another Rosanne. Another immature, irresponsible, whining, lying loser. Another one of Hollywood's 'Beautiful People'. Right.
(In case some of you don't know this. Ellen will have a new show this year)
Love object
ANNE Heche's loss is a potential gain for other women who've been flocking to tapings of "The Ellen Show," the new CBS sitcom starring Ellen DeGeneres. "Practically everyone lining up there was an Anne Heche-lookalike," an L.A. source told msnbc.com's Jeannette Walls. "There were dozens of hot-looking lesbians with short blonde hair." Not all the gals behaved like ladies: "When there were only a few seats left, a fist fight almost broke out."
YIKES!!!! Girls will be girls I guess.
I didn't read it. I clicked on this mess, scrolled down to reply #1 and posted my reply. Sorry, I got better things to do than sweat/post/joke over a bunch of Hollywood wakoz.
The barf part that I caught was the gay gal stating,"they (Ellen and Ann) were the perfect role models"
My sentiments exactly. I've never been an Ann fan and I found I detested her when I read she was a contributing cause to Robert Downey, Jr.'s bender last November (coke--they had the Ally McBeal connection).
I don't think of Ann as nuts so much as just one big narcissist. She MUST be the center of attention. Once the shock value of being with Ellen wore off, she went on to other things, including the book and interview. Now people are talking about her again, so no wonder she's happy.
The one thing I don't buy is her alleged abuse. We're supposed to believe that her dad was a flamer, but couldn't express it, so he abused his pre-pubescent DAUGHTER as a substitute. Yeah, right.
I had to turn off the interview. Didn't learn about the pregnancy until this morning. We should all be saying a few prayers for the babe in utero; I sure wouldn't want to be the one inheriting those genes!
Well la-di-friggin-da, ain't that somethin'? The new hubby may not be the "best" she ever had, but he got the job done (assuming it's his). :)
