+Quotes
Gossip is the art of saying nothing in a way that leaves practically nothing unsaid.

Hollywood is where they shoot too many pictures and not enough actors.

She's been on more laps than a napkin.

I wanted to try and work out what it was that attracted them to each other when they met. We all meet lots of people on a daily basis, and yet we don't always connect [in a deep way] with these people. The two of them clearly got on very very well. I decided to celebrate the similarities rather than the differences.
