grammar errors of the stars

There's a lovely little dose of schadenfreude in seeing the complete dearth of writing skills in already annoying celebrities. The recent weeks have brought us two gems in this department. Defamer posted the Britney Spears book report that was up on the Christie's auction block earlier this month.

Note Spears's incisive analysis of Antigone: "Antigone is about a girl who looses her brother during a war. She wants to bury them, but the new king, Creon, will not allow it, and who shall ever do so shall be killed. Antigone wants her brother buried, because she wants him to be able to be in the heaven of ghost. So she goes and buries him. Their was a rumer about her burying her brother, so the gaurds keep a good look out. Finally, they catch her." At this early age, Spears is already sensitive to the plague of innuendo.

Lindsay Lohan is also concerned with the rumor mill - and with Al Gore's help, god damn it, she will prevail. However, she may have to take the correctional advice of the Fug Girls first (click to embiggen and click here for page one), who have gone to the trouble to edit Ms. Lohan.

I hereby offer all grammatically challenged starlets with money to burn the opportunity to hire me to proofread any rambling missives they may wish to send.
