And the headline of the year (yeah, we know, it's only January) goes to FemaleFirst and Minnie Driver for this gem: "Minnie Loves Pop Star Lifestyle Except the Urine". We can feel Minnie's pain, though. We used to love the commercial real estate world, except for all the feces.
She said: "I liked everything about making movies and I love hanging around sets. But hanging around rock venues is just sort of stinky–smelling the stench of piss out of the poor fuckers that were there 10 hours before you." Ohhhh, she means the smell of urine! We were thinking maybe there was some secret whizz-soaked underbelly of the pop world, where, like, Baby Spice and Ashlee Simpson and Robbie Williams got together for pee fetish parties.
Minnie also says that she toyed with the idea of releasing her album Everything I've Got In My Pocket under a different name, because records put out by actors-turned-singers generally are not embraced warmly by the music-purchasing public. "The bar was tragically low for actors crossing over to music. I thought about releasing it under an alias – but only for about five seconds." And it's a good thing she didn't, because that album is sellin' like hotcakes! Hotcakes, I tell ya!
