Yes, that's Christina Ricci with a miss piggy snout sitting behind Reese Witherspoon's funky little stunt-double. The Toronto Film Festival is well under way chickies, and on Friday night, Reese unveiled her new film Penelope, which was produced by her production company, Type A. The movie, about a wealthy young woman born with a pig's snout for a nose, is played by Christina Ricci, who obviously gleaned inspiration for her role by simply looking in the mirror.
Speaking of untalented, vacuous, and overrated "Indie-goddesses," PAPER magazine has recently deemed Chloe Sevigny as the "Art World's Favorite Movie Star." Yikes. What an insult to the art world.
I was once at an event with The Art World's Favorite Movie Star, and I can assure you, as wel as others that I know who've had first person ecounters with her, that she can't tell the difference between her ass and her elbow, much less between a painting and a photograph. Despite her connections with Harold Hunter and Harmony Korine, her real-life persona does not live up to her Art World's Favorite Movie Star reputation. And you know what, that's not something to make fun of - that is actually quite sad. Cause I'm not here to make fun of you Chloe, but I am here to observe how unfortunate it is for the whole world to think that you're actually intelligent and transgressive for blowing Vincent Gallo, when you're actually kind of clueless, like most of your groupies who think they're modern day versions of Andy Warhol's Factory groupies. I might like you better Chloe if you didn't try so hard to be such a damn aloof hipster. Because, for all the open-mindedness and coolness and downtown edginess that hipsters painstakingly try to emit, they are, for the most part, the most sourly intolerant and judgemental bunch of folks I've ever had the misfortune of meeting.
