I’m woefully out of touch with who’s-who type stuff. I just never pay attention. It can be embarrassing at times.
No. Embarrassing is a supposed news channel like MSNBC or CNN having hourly “Paris in Prison” updates instead of concentrating on important issues like the US Attorney scandal or the utter debacle in Iraq.
If she is, can she just be plain old “pregnant”, and not preggers?
Sorry, personal pet peeve, along with “We’re pregnant”. No, SHE’S pregnant.
Carry on.
Not necessarily. Kwashiorkor is caused by a diet deficient in protein but with an adequate number of calories. A diet deficient in both protein and calories will not have that swollen belly effect.
Every time I see Nicole Ritchie I start singing “ballerina girl, you are so loooovely.” I kind of enjoy her existence. She has a book where she wears crown and since she is marketed like an important heiress, I’ve taken that to mean that Lionel Ritchie has been accepted as sort of royalty.
Up until all this happened I always felt a bit guilty about how mercilessly I made fun of “Dancing on the Ceiling” when I was in middle school. Lionel Ritchie is sort of an underdog. But now it’s like he’s an aged king who has passed his crown to his funny looking daughter and she wears it with pride and we revere her by putting her on the cover of every magazine and all the humble people stare at her in the grocery store lineup as we wait to pay for our lowly boxes of shake n bake and whatnot. I had really been going along figuring she was the heiress of someone really important that I was just too dumb to have heard of or ever thought about. Finding out she’s the heir to the Three Times a Lady fortune tickles the crap out of me for some reason.
Anyway I think two things about her baby bump. One is that sometimes starvation makes your stomach distend. It happened to a friend of mine and of course she considered it to be a pot belly that could be cured by more dieting and she wound up in the hospital. The other is that if she’s not pregnant, and actually has an eating disorder, then having everyone talk about how she looks pregnant will probably be pretty bad for her eating disorder.
She was probably walking along minding her own business when a bug flew in her mouth and she swallowed it and that radically increased her protein intake balancing out her diet.
I’ve made a concerted effort lately to avoid People, Us, E! News, etc., in part because I hate to finance the paparazzi. I broke down last week and was excited to see that I didn’t recognize a few of whoever the latest it-girls are!! Yay. Now if I could just scrub my brain of all the old information like the names of Reese and Ryan’s kids [Ava and Deacon] or Jennifer Aniston’s dog [Norman].
