Check it out. There is so much about that tabloid that makes me laugh – but I’m afraid to even write any of those phrases on my blog because it’ll bring the freaks out of the woodwork. But still – every lurid headline – is so hilarious to me! I mean look at the headline across the top! Let’s just start with THAT! “Gals”?? I can’t take it!!

You know, gratefully, most of the time I forget how vicious and merciless with her memory the media were towards Sharon after her death.
I know – it’s unbelievable. This sweet kind of hippie flower child woman. They murdered her all over again in terms of her reputation.
Oh, it was just so horrible. Can you imagine what her family went through, having to read all of that stuff? I’m sure she wasn’t Miss Pure As The Driven Snow, but a big part of her problems in her relationship with Roman Polanski was that she wanted to settle down and be a mother and kind of get away from the partying lifestyle in Hollywood and he didn’t want that. He didn’t want a housewife and that’s what she wanted to be. Then to have her memory dragged through the tabloid sludge with headlines like “DRUG CRAZED ORGY!!!”…god, I feel for her parents and younger sisters so badly.
