| Lo Fun Fact #1 |
| "Lolita Files" is my real name. It is not a pen name, as incredible as that may seem. There are plenty of Files family members and people who have known me for years capable of validating this. As for the "Lolita" part, my mother named me after the movie based on Nabokov's book, although she saw or read neither. For as long as she lived, she had no idea there was anything sexual or seedy about being called "Lolita". |
| Lo Fun Fact #2 |
| I love fried chicken and fabulous shoes (although obviously I can't eat fried chicken nearly as much as I'd like). If you ever want to get on my good side, send Popeye's or Church's (that's right, I said Church's) and a pair of
Christian Louboutins. |
| Lo Fun Fact #3 |
| Never show up unannounced or without a Pepsi. Better yet, how about not showing up at all? |
| Lo Fun Fact #4 |
| I hate the telephone. Don't get mad if I don't call you or take a long time to return your calls. I don't call anyone. Don't call me asking why I don't call. Just don't call, okay? (Exception: I will happily take all calls related to business or to share fun/exciting/major news. I'm just not one for jawing on the phone just to be jawing.) |
| Lo Fun Fact #5 |
| I love the internet!!! I love communicating through the internet!!! You can e-mail me and odds are I'll e-mail you right back (if I'm not in the middle of a major project). Makes up for my hangup about the phone, doesn't it? See, I'm not so bad after all!!! |
| Lo Fun Fact #6 |
| I can't stand IMing. Please don't IM me. I'm always on my laptop and connected to the internet as I work and when IM's pop into my screen out of nowhere, they break my concentration and often startle the sh*t out of me in the process. So don't do it. You will get the cold shoulder. I don't like giving people the cold shoulder, so please don't put me in that position. |
| Lo Fun Fact #7 |
I have four five six wonderful, slap-happy dogs and a cat, all of whom I love to pieces. I had a bird (a Roller pigeon that I rescued in LA on New Year's Day in 2004) named B-Bird (what? that's a good name!) who passed away in February 2009, which broke my widdle heart in half. He loved me so, as I did him. If you meet me and ask me about my dogs and cat, we'll be instant friends, and if you ask about B-Bird, I'll probably hug you (unless you smell...wash first). If you meet me and ask me why the f*ck I have four five six dogs and a cat, see the above fun fact for how I will respond. |

| How You Know Your Fifteen Minutes Are Almost Up. |

 Hmmm. I'm not quite sure what I think about this one. I mean, we all came up on this company's products at some point. My first colognes and makeup came from them when I was a kid, and I really liked their stuff, some of which was pretty cool. (I once had a malted milkball-flavored lipstick that smelled so authentic, I gobbled down the whole stick. Imagine how stricken I was to bite into a disgusting waxy goo once I got past the malt-flavored surface. I was in the back seat of our family car during a leisurely drive when I ate it and spent the next hour heaving all over the seat, much to my father's displeasure. Hey, I was six. What do you expect? I used to eat doll heads back then, too.)
But I digress.
Per Page Six:Julia Roberts may have been dropped as the face of Christian Dior makeup, as Page Six reported last month, but the former "Pretty Woman" will still be the face of something. According to Us Weekly, Roberts is about to sign on as the spokeswoman for more downmarket Avon - for a whopping $2 million-$4 million a year. Roberts will join Salma Hayek (who earns a measly $1 million- $2 million a year) in representing the company.
Not that there's anything wrong with them. They've got cool stuff, and heck, they get a lifetime of props just on the strength of making Skin So Soft...
 ...which single-handedly saved me from being eaten alive by the mosquitoes in Mississippi when we used to visit my relatives during summer vacation (what was in that stuff anyway? if mosquitoes came anywhere near the force field SSS created around me, they were instantly dead).
This is Julia Roberts, the once-reigning queen of Hollywood and, for a long time, its highest-paid actress (that honor now goes to Reese Witherspoon).
 Now she's about to be shilling for a company that carries products like this press-on nail polish (!!!)...
 Hell hath no fury like aging in Hollywood.

I hope she is just wrapped up in being a mommy right now, because she is my home biscuit. I need her to make a comeback.

She sure is swell. Can't wait to see her in any upcoming Romantic Comedy.
