8. But Judy was a very talented human being...

Sad they they doped her so much as a child. I heard that prior to her early years at MGM, even her mother fed her pills.

She was a phenomenal talent. :(

Youngest Oscar winner since Shirley Temple. Doing reality show with dad in the hot tub now. She's all fucked up.
From Peter Bogdanovich's "Paper Moon". First person you see.

5. This thread is a train wreck.

Why is Danny B-what-his-name a train wreck? If for some danged rease everyone still looks a him and knows who he is, maybe he's doing okay being famous and all. What is wrong with Tatum O'Neal? Who is Judy? Who is Anissa Jones?

I have to go search for myself online about each one of these posts to know what the big deal is.

I'm not going to, of course, but I guess a thread like this would be fun with links or explanations.

Maybe going TV-Free for almost all of my adult life puts me at a disadvantage b/c I am always seeing posts of 'famous people' on these threads with no clue or explanation as to who they are.
