i can hear the frenzied screams from here

Did I mention Comic-Con is in town? Oh, yes. I’m now afraid to walk the streets lest I be assaulted by a “Klingon” violently demanding my purse from me in, uhm, “Klingon.”

Oh, and Sarahk? When I emailed you the other night during the local 11:00 news to give you the status on Kristen Stewart’s hair — you know, because oh, how I love you — I wasn’t entirely accurate. It looked a lot shorter in the news report than it actually is. Still, the girl is totally Goth-ing out. And, as a withered crone, I don’t even know what that means. I just report. Or, alternatively, make things up. Potato/potahto.

Here she is for you, Sarahk. Oh, and there are some random dudes in this photo too. Must be fans or something. I guess. Who knows? I sure don’t.

  1. Swoon. I have to say, I’m starting to get the whole R-Patz thing.

    To be clear, I am not swooning over the 17-year-old Taylor Lautner. Not that creepy. When DOES that boy turn 18? Let me know.

    Um, does Kristen have going on what I think she has going on? Business up front, party in the back? Looks like to me.

  2. Oh, and I agree on the shoes.

    Also, do you think Muscles and Sparkles planned to wear the same jeans, or did it just work out through serendipity?

  3. sarahk — Let me get this straight. So you WILL swoon over him once he hits 18??

    And, yes, they do appear to be wearing the same jeans. It’s precious.

    JFH — I’m impressed how well-informed you are about Kristin Stewart. 😉

    Don’t know if I picture her as Joan Jett, though. Hm.

  4. Tracey, I read People magazine cover to cover every week… I fit that strange demographic that subscribes to “National Review”, “The Wall Street Journal” AND “People” (though technically People comes under my wife’s name so I can pretend that the magazine is just for her).

  5. I’ve heard rumblings about the Runaways biopic for some time. Recently I read that Lita Ford was offered to help be an on-set subject matter expert (as I’m sure Jett was). The story talked about her turning it down because they only offered her $1,000 to do so. She said (quoting from memory): “I just want people to know that I have nothing to do with this movie.” That makes me more than a little wary of this pic.

    As for casting, Stewart looks more like Jett than I thought she would. However, they’ve got Dakota Fanning playing Cherie Currie and that is just not right. They have an actor named Scout Taylor-Compton playing Ford and I don’t know anything about her, but she doesn’t look a thing like Lita Ford.

    I’ll still wind up seeing the movie, of course, but I’m nowhere near as excited about it as when I first heard about the concept.

  6. I’m sorry, I can’t get over Kristen’s mullet. I don’t care who she’s playing in what. They make great wigs. No one HAS to have a mullet.
