...heart aches for forty-something Susan Russell from Chicago, who has spent a small fortune taking a booth to sell "Exposé," her public-access show in which she "interviews celebrities while dressed in go-go boots, short skirt and 'Flashdance'-homage crop-top." Billing herself as " a hot blonde with a masters degree and a mini-skirt," she explains that her "groupie girl wardrobe" belies her intellect.

The most popular song on the album thus far, and the song most likely to show up in a WB show near you, is Madonna's quite gracious rendition of Don McLean's "American Pie."
