True. I think sometimes people want that "white picket fence" stuff because they're told via the media and society, that's what they're supposed to have, it's what's "normal." Some people get married and have kids and realize that relationships and kids take work, and they realize it's not for them, just like some people go into a career and realize it's not for them. I totally DISagree. We can still learn healthy emotional tools as adults (thank god). I didn't say that people can't learn healthy, emotional tools. Sometimes learning healthy emotional tools means learning that certain things just aren't for you. |

Bringing this over from the Divorce Pool thread: I thought one of those people would have been Drew, because I vaguely remembered hearing that she was supposed to the the godmother to Frances Bean. However, I found this quote in a recent interview: Why does this not surprise me about Courtney?  I was trying to remember how she and Courtney ended up in each other's orbits...wasn't Drew dating Eric Erlandson for awhile? Man. I also just remembered that she dated Jamie Walters, and they did a photoshoot in YM together or some such? THE 90S I even remember the exact outfit she wore on the red carpet with Erlandson- slip dress, daisy in the hair. And...I might have worn layered vintage nightgowns and a daisy in the hair to a college semi-formal in spring 1997, so I can shut up now.  |

OMG, I totally remember that outfit. This one, right? I totally loved this era of Drew, fashion wise. I failed to look this cool in college. |

I just read the People cover story and saw that Will is the son of the Chanel President and COO. It said he's more rigid and organized compared to her and they had personality conflicts. That makes more sense now, Drew's always come off as pretty low-maintenance for a celeb. Will should hook up with Gywneth next, she seems like his type. Then maybe Drew can take Chris. Problem solved.  |

Despite Drew being very successful as a producer, she still got to march to the beat of her own drum with that job. One article I read about Drew said she's an hour late for everything, which drove Will crazy. I bet her partner, Nancy, was the one handling the paperwork-and-deadlines part of the company.

Valuing punctuality makes Drew's ex deserving of Gwyneth? That seems harsh.

Ug! I cannot stand people who are chronically late like that. Five to fifteen minutes late? Whatever. Life happens. Thirty minutes to an hour as a regular thing? Nope. I won't work with you and I won't take you seriously as friend. You're basically saying that your time is more valuable than mine even when that is not the intention.

Me either. It's such a selfish character defect. I like Ellen Degeneres take when someone is late and they say "sorry, traffic" and Ellen says "what do you think I was air dropped in here via helicopter?" How the hell do they think the other person got there on time?

God, me too. It drives me nuts. Like I've got nothing better to do with my life than to sit around and wait for you. It's so disrespectful.
ETA: I think the lateness thing is something that celebrities are allowed to get away with, it's ridiculous and I'm kinda glad to hear about someone who won't let a celebrity apply that to her private life.
The most amazing example I can remember was some documentary was following a magazine or a photographer or something, and they had a photo shoot scheduled with Lindsay Lohan (a few years back when she was at her trainwreck-iest). She was scheduled to show up at 11:00 AM. She showed up at 10:00 PM. And she couldn't even use the "Oh, no! I thought it was PM not AM!" excuse because you know she never shows up anywhere an hour early. But the thing that blew my mind was that everyone waited for her. After an hour, I would have called her manager and said "If she's not here in the next 30 minutes, we're all going home and she misses her editorial in our magazine" and then packed up and left when the clock ran out. But they didn't. They all waited eleven hours for her. While waiting, they were all grumbling and plotting her murder, but as soon as she walked in the door, it was all, "Lindsay! Oh, my god, you're so beautiful! You are so amazing!" And then to add insult to injury, she started whining about how long the shoot was taking and asked to cut it short so she could go to a party Samantha Ronson was DJ-ing. I don't know how they didn't yell "Well, if you had been here ELEVEN HOURS AGO you would have plenty of time to finish your photo shoot and then get ready for your girlfriend's party!"
That was the indulgence Lindsay Lohan was given back when she was at her worst. I'm sure Drew, who is probably very sweet to everyone, never hears a peep of complaint from industry people when she shows up an hour late.
