Luckily, Mariel was there to help me make fun of it. Nevertheless, I could not turn it. Could not. That's a guilty pleasure, those trashtastic shows about famous people, like, if I had cable, I would never not watch E! True Hollywood Story....

Those shows are addictive! Of course, it depends on what kind of mood I'm in at the time. Sometimes I'm amused by them and other times I get mad that talentless people have so much money. The ones with Britney are hard to take.

I know, I got hooked on a Surreal Life Marathon one weekend. Mini Me from Austin Powers got drunk, was riding around on his scooter naked and peed on the weight bench. It was heaven.

She looks like a man and she is crazy as hell. The last one I saw was date night and Mini Me was getting spanked in the bondage room.

And she sounds like a man! I haven't seen that episode with Mini Me. Watching Chris Knight (aka Peter Brady) get drunk with chicks (sometimes even naked) on TV was a high point!

Cotton candy, even though I am over 45

The Bee Gees music

Dressing like Stevie Nicks on Halloween and I am proud of this

Bugging my hubby so much and making him feel guilty that he will drive 20 hrs to go see Stevie Nicks with me in Las Vegas. Oh wait, that is my happiest moment

Jacqueline Susann is my ultimate guilty pleasure. Nothing beats Valley of the Dolls and, my personal favorite, Once Is Not Enough. Drug addicts, incest, murder, orgies, affairs, kinky sex, and UFOs. Love those books.

Do you read them, now? I read them all in High School. They were great. I loved superimposing the characters of "Valley of the Dolls" onto what I knew about old movie stars....

I'm gonna go listen to it now.

I <3 you, your my hero. If you were here i would hug you. I love that album and I even think their second album Aquarius was amazing. My bubble pop and swedish pop fantasys have never stopped

I haul them out every summer.

A couple of years ago, they published the sequel to Dolls that Susann had written a treatment for before she died and it was fab. Not as good as the original, but still devilishly entertaining.

I LOVE her - and I love to sing with martini in hand and on my piano:

Gotta get off, gonna get
Have to get off from this ride
Gotta get hold, gonna get
Need to get hold of my pride

When did I get, where did I
How was I caught in this game
When will I know, where will I
How will I think of my name

When did I stop feeling sure, feeling safe
And start wondering why, wondering why
Is this a dream, am I here, where are you
What's in back of the sky, why do we cry

Gotta get off, gonna get
Out of this merry-go-round
Gotta get off, gonna get
Need to get on where I'm bound

When did I get, where did I
Why am I lost as a lamb
When will I know, where will I
How will I learn who I am

Is this a dream, am I here, where are you
Tell me, when will I know, how will I know
When will I know why?

In fact, I love her so much, I even like the Bette Midler/Nathan Lane mess caled "Isn't She Great" if for nothing more than Bette as JS barging into the warehouse where her books are being loaded on trucks with cakes and shrieking something about the Teamsters being the most well hung men in America

and do not get me started on Stockard Channing as Florence "Flo" Maybelle

SC is great and that was a power role - but OY the script.
