First, Holy Cow! What is Katie Holmes smuggling in those pants? Seriously, she could fit Suri in there. I haven't seen plaid maxi-pants like that since my mom wore them in the seventies! And her hair was cut the same way as Katie's here. I guess the seventies are going to be really in now. Fashion terror alert level: Unflattering Shag.
In addition to sartorial madness, this picture demonstrates the only reason a sane person might select People over Us Weekly, if one were forced to make the gut-wrenching choice of only reading one.
If Us is the friend who tells you when your skirt is tucked in
your underwear (and got you drunk in the first place) then
People is a bland, blonde sorority girl who gets her thank you notes
out on time. Who needs, or wants, a bunch of pious human interest stories about the non-famous? But People gets first quality photos, with the extra frame that no one else has. Kind of like a Playboy exclusive, only with less nipple action, unless Maggie Gyllenhaal is involved.
This week they put together another super cool photo essay, The Moms of Summer, giving you fresh angles on Julia, Sheryl, Angelina, Mariska, Jen (Garner), Heidi Klum, Gwen, Debra and Jenny McCarthy, along with their super cute kids. And in Gwen's case, super cute husband Gavin.
Thanks, People. You're still second choice, but it's nice to see you trying so hard to be cool. Loosen up a little, start a feud with someone, maybe talk a little more smack, and we could get a real 'bloid war going with Us. Or you could go the other way, start publishing some nudie candids, and take on Playboy for real. Your call.
