Congratulations asdf for a perfect score, followed closely by alyssa, Ruth and Aliza!  We clasp our hands together and let out a squee of delight at your chick flick wisdom.  As your reward you may dress yourself in wildly impractical clothes and proceed to win everyone over with your cute and fabulous ways.

So if you backed the winner, now would be an opportune time to bust out into the victory jig that you’ve secretly been practising for ages. 

Did you know that bulls are colour blind and only attack because of the flapping motion of the cloth?  This means that when Julia Ormond gets bored she can unfurl her apron with a flourish and provoke her co-star into making a spectacular charge.  Can you not already sense its suspicion at her excess layer of fabric?

Here’s an Election Day special - a pair of pantsuits for those without political ambitions.  Which one gets your grudging endorsement?

Joaquin Phoenix on his unexpected retirement from acting:

“It’s like greener pastures, you know what I mean?” Phoenix said Saturday. “And so, I’m just going to try and like, I’ll just be doing the other thing. … Hopefully, I will emotionally impact you with that, as well.”

Well here goes…do you think it’s really going to work? 

Yes, this should keep the bullies from taking our lunch money today.

Looks like someone could use a little practice. This is why it’s so important to get the angle right, otherwise you end up somewhere in no man’s land instead of firmly in lush and inviting territory.

I must say she does look awfully immaculate for someone who’s just been rescued from a burning lapdance club. That ought to save on the drycleaning bills!

Hey folks do you have a tendency to hear more than one voice in your head? Split personalities call for a variety of styling tools so make sure the end product meets with the approval of the entire gang!

Well, when someone as formidable as Grace Jones throws down the gauntlet in a face-pulling contest how else is a gentleman to respond?

The judges haven’t even begun their evaluations, but already we can tell which one won’t be winning any prizes for talent, grooming or general appearance.
