Seriously? OMG! WTF?

That was the aim of Pirates of the Caribbean: Dead Man’s Chest director Gore Verbinski, although the stink he was aiming for was not a "stinker" of a movie in the box office sense.Verbinski wanted realism.Back when pirates roamed the seven seas for months on end looking for loot, Rexona and hot showers were not an option, so Verbinski ordered his pirates, led by Johnny Depp and Orlando Bloom, to be covered in grime.Thankfully, tickets to Pirates of the Caribbean: Dead Man’s Chest, which opened in Australian cinemas this week, do not come with scratch and sniff cards.
"I think it was just important you don’t fall into the eye-patches and striped shirts and the pirates don’t look too clean," Verbinski told reporters in Los Angeles.
"They need to smell."There wasn’t a lot of personal hygiene back then so you can have a lot of fun and be absurd, but you can’t quite ever be dirty enough."

Since digital sales were not around for the first few Idols I do not consider it total sales, so I am saying McPriss only sold 47,000 singles. 

I am also wondering if her lack of sales might be a karma thing? Because the below picture was taken on Sunday with her boyfriend in Laguana Beach and she does not look all that sick. Do you think she looks so sick that she was not able to perform yesterday (3 days later) in New Hampshire with the other American Idols? Just asking?

Former child model BROOKE SHIELDS is bitter she never got to experience a proper childhood, because adulthood was thrust upon her at an early age. Shields remembers being used as an icon of sexuality before she was old enough to realise what it meant. She says, "I don’t think I ever really was a ‘child’ child. I was made into a sort of icon of sexuality, simultaneously thought of as the virgin, which I was, yet always on the cover of Vogue looking sexual and much older. "The object of affection and fantasy. I remember my defiance – not letting the system get the better of me and playing whatever role I needed to play to survive on my terms."

On July 5, Paris Hilton stopped by the Bird Kingdom & Pet Shop in Santa Monica, California, and purchased a parrot and kitten. Months from now, when she tires of the animals, she will discard them in the bathroom at Bungalow 8, issuing the following statement through publicist Eliot Mintz: “They know what they did.”
