Top 15 Dickinsonisms from the season premiere of The Surreal Life
15. Yeah, I work in television. I have two kids. PTA.
14. I have anger issues.
13. (To Caprice) I was modeling before you had pubic hair.
12. (On Jose) I hope he rips his pants when he bends over.
11. Omarosa led me through the house like she was fucking selling real estate. "Here, we have this room. And here, we have this room."
10. (On Bronson) He's just a mosquito, as far as I'm concerned, because he hasn't been very nice to me at all.
9. Pepa is Pepa. Y'know, I'm dying to get in her pants. That's my, that's, tha, that's my quest.
8. I'll eat you for breakfast and spit you out for lunch.
7. You'll probably find me in the dictionary someday because I was the first super mō-dell. (Lifts hand to help with explanation -- see below) Supermodel.
6. (On phone) I quit! Y'know what, Paulo? . . . Paula? Come get me.
5. It wasn't until I sought the help of a 12-step program was I able to come out of . . . my, uh, my bleak darkness.
4. (On Bronson in confessional) Two words for you pal that begin with an "f" and end with a "y." Keep your paws off of me.
3. This is more food that, um, you could feed an Indonesian family for a month.
2. We gotta get off on the right foot here. Otherwise, y'know, I'm gonna put my chakras on your, like, oxtail.
1. Y'know what? I have premenstrual cramps.
Bonus quote
Pepa says the truest words of the episode to Janice: You're on a big show [America's Next Top Model], too. Everybody watch you on that damn show. Everybody loves you. You keep that show alive.
Bonus look
I love the contrast between the airbrushed look of Janice's face and her decidedly fiftysomething neck. Rocking the turkey: that's what I call keepin' it real.
for me it was her introduction to Jose
Jose:"You're a tall one"
Janice:"Model", "Models have to be tall"
"nice to meet you"

When she asked her friend Paula to come get her I thought I heard Paula say she couldn't get her because she was in New York. I could be wrong, but that's what it sounded like. It was so obvious Janice wanted camera time.

Here's what I don't understand - Janice said that she went through a 12 step program, but apparently it was not for alcohol. It looked like she was drinking straight vodka. I read in one of the gossip magazines that Omarosa said Janice was intoxicated the whole time. I can't wait until next week!

You're right about her neck. I never noticed that. She needs a neckpeel!

To know Janice and to rabidly obsess about her is to realize that part of what makes Janice Janice is the air of contradiction that follows her. She's a mystery like Prince or Jesus.

Oh lord have mercy, what is the deal with her face!? Never mind the turkey gobbles she gots on her neck, but lord have mercy.
In other news...Mariah Carey loses her top. Who ordered two flapjacks? http://www3.contactmusic.com/news/index12.htm

I'd hit it.

Who does she think she's kidding. She may have been....a super model. But she is now a washed up lush doing b-rated tv shows to pay the rent. Or...she could be saving up to do something about that neck.
You go girl!

This woman was so beautiful when she was young so now she has passed for different surgeries that's the reason she has the face like that now.m10m

A whole bunch of stores have already started with the Christmas displays here, too. What's up with that?

This was a fascinating cultural exposition. I enjoyed reading this. Ali is a cutie.

There should be a middle ground somewhere, Alysa, between the crass commercialism we have in this country and the tight-assed ninnyness of the French - except for those in the North, of course. Carnaval looks to be similar to Fasching in Germany. Drink and be merry.

Well.... The French have a point about obesity. And definitely about commercialism. But still, as a Halloween-loving American, I'd find it hard!
