...about Prince (or the Artist or whatever); he, meanwhile, didn't even crack a smile. She might find herself in Chain Gang 3: Prison Babes Mutiny if she doesn't pull a John Travolta....Here's a good quote from Tori Spelling: "I read the most appalling stuff about myself: 'She has bug eyes,' 'Her hair looks like straw.' I was like, 'Ok, I could use a little conditioner, but - God!"....And finally, kudos to John Malkovich for participating in the feature-film wackjob Being John Malkovich.
