That's also why comedy and horror are my two favorite genres of film to write, because you get these outbursts of emotion from people, laughter and shock, and it's really thrilling, and I like to be thrilled.

I've been meaning to write about the Rolling Stones, but I am the furthest thing from a hipster rock journalist.

The public's appetite for frothy, flippant blondes has waned, but Paris Hilton still fascinates me.

Of course, the strippers also take pains not to appear too innocent, valorous, or bookishly inclined. (In direct opposition to the Swayze Mandate of 1987, everybody puts Baby in a goddamn corner.)

It doesn't matter if they're in front of the camera or behind the camera. I know women who are producers who are surviving on nothing but juice and almonds.

I have never been an ambitious person, and my participation in this industry is a fluke, but only male writers can afford to be coy and self-deprecating.

Everybody knows that I'm not a snob when it comes to pop culture, obviously. I love reality shows.
