Are you allergic to cotton?
No.

Because you seem to not wear shirts very often.
Another backhanded comment!

I don't blame you. You've got a great body. Why not show it off?
I was raised in the country. When it was warm outside we were out there in shorts, no shirt, no shoes. I was doing that long before anybody was taking pictures and people like you were seeing it.

Could you step on a tack and not feel it?
Exactly. I know now when I get a pedicure and they try to sand the bottom of my feet, I'm like, "No, no, no. I worked on these. Don't do that. It took a long time." I'd say my feet are a little more tender now than they used to be.

Pedicures. That's very metrosexual of you.
Oh, yeah. I'm not afraid of a pedicure or a facial.

Kiss-Takes Were Made
There are some things from Scotland you just can't pretty up. Haggis, for instance. Not so Susan Boyle. Only days after she became a celebrity thanks in large part to her dowdy looks (and stunning voice), Boyle had a makeover. Darker hair. Thinner eyebrows. And most shocking: an admission that, despite what she said on British TV, she really has been kissed. "It was meant as a joke!" Boyle said. Simon Cowell will be heartbroken.

A Lifeline For 'Millionaire'
The decision to bring "Who Wants to Be a Millionaire" back to prime-time TV is pathetic because: (a) Poor Regis turns 78 in August. Is ABC really going to make him work the night shift? (b) It's capitalizing on all the free advertising from "Slumdog Millionaire" winning the Oscar. (c) What about Meredith Vieira? She might have a day job, but times are tough! (d) Phone a friend? That's, like, so 1999. C'mon. Even Barbara Walters knows how to Twitter now.

    I have to agree, I have seen these same type of "interviews" (and I use that term loosely) more and more. It's stupid, moronic and just a pile of "fluff". and to see this in Newsweek, is extremely pathetic. If you want to see the product of our educational system at work, here is a good example.

    Is this seriously what passes for an interview in newsweek these days? it is confusing, incoherent and tells us absolutely nothing!
