Radio on the TV...

First off, my favorite novelty song of last spring, "Finding Out True Love is Blind" by Louis XIV is now being featured in a Payless commercial. Amusing.

Secondly, I have major hard times when I look at pictures of or see Jenny Lewis on TV. She performed on Letterman tonight, and it seriously freaked me out. It's similar to the Olsen twins. When I look at them, I see the same monkey-faced babies who uttered contrived catchphrases on the best make-me-puke sitcom that ever was, Full House. It's like they haven't aged. At all.

The thing is, I like Rilo Kiley, and I'm digging Rabbit Fur Coat. I can listen, but I just don't think I can look at Jenny. She looks EXACTLY the same as she did in her Troop Beverly Hills and Big Girls Don't Cry... days. Tonight, she even wore her hair the same way: parted down the middle with heavy bangs. Lighter on the feathering, though.

Jenny Lewis: Hot then and hot now.

First , thanks for the info on jeans. Those Italians keep showing how creepy they really are (even though I'd secretly like to be one ... an Italian, not a rapist, wait, per "Jean Genie, part deux, are they actually one in the same?) Anywho, I like Jenny Lewis. Her music is groovy and sometimes sexxy. I don't, however, like those Olsen Twins. Late adolescence, eating disorders and coke have not treated those ladies well.

I agree with MJS - the Olsen twins haven't aged well...any innocence that I believed they had has been lost.

And Quank - is your shoe slanging store Payless? Or another store? I feel like I should know the answer, but alas, I do not.

Another creepy Italian thing I just heard on Howard Stern: in Italy, a man's rape sentence was reduced because the 14 year old girl he raped wasn't a virgin.
