Reply to "Swept Away"

Those rotten "American Life"/'Che' posters are all over town, and hardly anyone can even be bothered to deface them--that's just how apathetic people's feelings are running toward her these days. But one person did put those funny 'anime' sticker-eyes over hers, and at -- I think -- 2nd av & 2nd St., someone wrote across her face YOU ARE NOT A REVOLUTION.

The revolutionary imagry on the cover & ad campaign for "American Life" is creepy, funny (in a laugh-at way), and sad. But if she had posed in such a way in 1986 or so, it wouldn't have been so hard to take seriously. She has this delusion of herself as a radical artist, but she's more like Debbie Reynolds than she is Cindy Sherman. At this point, at least.

And now that she's had kids and can't show her tits anymore, she's lost her two biggest selling points. Though I could also see her doing some here-I-am, droops-and-all nudie pix.
