If you're going to make fun of Hollywood, do it right.

There's plenty of ammo to make fun of Hollywood. It's like shooting fish in a barrel - not even sporting. I won't participate. I'll merely post some links to stories of Tara Reid and Anna Nicole Smith making complete asses of themselves.

What I'd like to point out, is at the bottom of the Tara Reid article (written by Jeannette Walls):

Cameron Diaz wouldn’t buy some animal tusks because she was worried that the animals they came from were endangered — but then she found out they were extinct. A source says that the “Charlie’s Angels” star was shopping the Barneys store in Beverly Hills on Saturday, looking at some tusk bracelets for $1,650 each. “She asked if they were elephant tusks and said she just couldn’t buy them if they were,” says a source. “The saleswoman assured her that they were extinct mammoth tusks and she bought three."

The context makes it pretty clear what Jeannette is implying: "Stupid actress thinks there's big difference between buying a bracelet made from extinct animals, and one from endangered animals!" After all, her column is called "Jeannette Walls delivers the scoop". The headline "Rich actress buys expensive bracelet" is not exactly a "scoop".

Hold on a second, Jeannette. The problem is, Cameron is absolutely right - there is a big difference. She doesn't want her money to motivate poachers in Africa to shoot elephants. She can buy mammoth ivory with a clear conscience. They've been carcasses since pre-historic times. There's nothing at all contradictory about her purchase.

Jeannette, don't you feel pathetic? You've shot at fish in a barrel, and missed.
