Life sucks. Work sucks. Your spouse/significant other sucks. Everything just sucks. It is at a time like this that one can lift oneself up and dream of a better day, or they can point fingers and say "At least I am not that fucked up". For those, like me that use said opportunities to glow in the misfortune of others, here is a tibit of info that may help you through Tuesday.
Paris' Anemic Weekend at the Box Office

Paris Hilton is a woman with many talents, but acting isn't among them. The thespian heiress' latest cinematic offering, The Hottie and the Nottie (but which one is she?!), opened on 111 screens this weekend and sold only $76 in tickets per location, which means that approximately 10 people per theater went to see it.
An embarrassingly low figure, to be sure, but Hilton should take solace in the fact that she's a bigger box office draw than fellow flaxen-haired bimbo Jessica Simpson: Recall that only six people per theater bought tickets to see Simpson's 2007 opus Blonde Ambition when it opened on eight screens in Texas.
Does that mean a movie in which the two share billing would shatter all records for box office incompetence? Or would theater-goers be so morbidly fascinated by the spectacle that they'd actually turn out to see it? We're not really sure, but we're betting that someone will eventually pony up the money to make it happen.
when I saw the previews for that movie I just knew it was a waste of time. But even if it would have been a hit, I know I wouldnt have gone I hate Paris Hilton.
ReplyDeleteI think they should chain Paris Hilton to Britney Spears and drop them somewhere in the mountains of New Guinea! Im sure even the cannibals wouldnt touch them!
ReplyDeleteThis normally wouldn't be blog worthy, but given it is snowing (4 inches so far), they are calling for ice this afternoon, and snow again this evening, this after a two days where Sunday saw a high of 11 degress with 50 mph winds and yesterday where it didn't break 10, I needed something to cheer me up a little, this worked just fine thank you.
ReplyDeleteYou forgot to chain Jessica Simpson to that group!
ReplyDeleteShe was actually pretty good in the horror flick The Wax House... Maybe that's because we all wanted to see her die... There was quite a bit of applause in the theater if I remember correctly
ReplyDeleteI'm definately thinking Paris is "the nottie" thanks for the laugh Matt.
ReplyDeleteI'm bettin the cannibals would soon saying words like, well "like", "whatever", "thats hot" and starring in poor quality home movies lmao
