Blurbal Perspective

In an industry that favors youth over talent, actresses that were born before the Challenger Explosion are now being told that they are too 'over-the-hill' to play young adult characters. Anne Hathaway, who first drifted onto the scene in "The Princess Diaries," is being told by directors that she, at age 32, is "too old " to play young female characters: "I can’t complain about it because I benefitted from it.

Everyone looked at him with tears in their eyes, and the room was silent. Then Mr. Stern began his eulogy with the most hilarious statement: " Joan Rivers had a dry pussy. " Comedian Margaret Cho was at the funeral and had this to say about that moment: "In the morose silence Howard Stern said, "Joan Rivers had a dry pussy." At first, the words just hung there, as no one knew exactly what to do. Of course I started laughing hysterically, and everyone else, remembering who we were there to honor, followed suit.
