Rupert Everett Makes Me Glad To Be Alive


Madonna and Kate Moss are fashion icons? Rupert Everett doesn't think so. The star of the new movie St. Trinian's said:

I should really be headmistress of a star academy. All these so-called style divas have such terrible dress sense. I could give them a proper going over, and then put them back on the road. "Ooh, look, Kate Moss's hands have become almost as grabby as Madonna's."

Actually, they're all at it, clutching their handbags with knobbly claws, like it's stuffed full of cash. That will have to be one of the first week's lessons at school. How to hold your handbag without looking grasping.

And the second week's lesson would be to wear long sleeves, especially if you're Madonna, and your arms look like maps of the Amazon and all its tributaries.

I love Rupert. In St. Trinian's he plays the headmistress of an all-girls' school - which should be amusing because it's Rupert; although I have to admit, I sort of got soured on homos doing drag performances after watching Travolta in Hairspray.
