The selection is both random and diverse, including pieces such as the extremely slow and dangerously sexy "Be Careful" by R. Kelly and upbeat yet sensuous "It's All About Me" by MYA, a dancer turned singer starlet. Also included are Janet Jackson's "I Get Lonely" and Queen of Hip Hop Soul, Mary J. Blige's "I Can Love You." The album ends with a trio of ballads including SWV's "Rain," Boyz II Men's "A Song for Mama," and Xscape's "The Arms...

Right about now, CHARLIZE THERON, soon to be seen carrying Depp's baby in The Astronaut's Wife, should start considering herself a success.

The main character in Model Behavior just hits a button on his keypad to produce a paragraph about an actor living in Montana (CTRL, Mont) or a starlet claiming she still thinks of herself as ugly (SHIFT, What, me sexy?) for the magazine profiles he writes.
