Cynthia Rowley is the first fashion designer to do a designer-brand diapers for Pampers. It’s $6 more than the plainer diapers, and targets those who appreciate things that are aesthetically brand recognizable. How long before they come up with designer brand toilet paper, tissues, latex gloves, automobiles tires, and toothpicks?

I have this locked-in perceptions of people’s first impression. Their display of character role and how they want to be perceived by the observers is a normal sociological practic. But not everyone is good at it. My mother, for example, is as simple minded and humble internally as she is outwardly. On the contrast, there are folks who bedazzle themselves as people fall into their traps, only to find out it’s made in China and doesn’t mirror any authenticity.

I hate being confronted with the truth about the person you thought you knew is completely the opposite, it’s like being cheated. So here is our Helen Mirren. I’ve been a great fan of hers since The Cook The Thief His Wife and Her Lover in 1990, and her talent in the Last Station was unforgettable. Helen never disappoints in anyway. Even when Miley Trailer-Trash Cyrus tried to throw her under the bus on a British talk-show, our Helen Mirren was composed and classy on a horse drawn carriage. Observe her subtle eccentricity and provocativeness without being offensive. She’s effortlessly elegant without overdoing and not a hijacker like most actresses. Our Helen is secure with herself.

Having gloated all over her in the past, I did a double take when reading her interview below, because there’s another layer about Helen that’s contemplative within my perception of her….

I get it. This happens when you have good morals in all the right places.

Helen on what she learned after she gave in and spent the night in a brothel: “It’s amazing how quickly you get into dildos everywhere and pink-feather handcuffs. Within an hour you’re completely used to it.”

This commands for my morning breakfast to be spat up… It’s not the dildos or the stupid handcuffs (which is so overrated for those with no real imaginations), but a brothel where the sheets probably haven’t been washed after the bodily fluid of desperate beings has been squirted and stained the wall paper with hooker-shame. And imagine the bed-bugs, especially in England! ugh, I want to vomit now.

Helen on psychotic whores: “Susan Austin [the Mustang Ranch’s real madam] said you had to be tough, because maybe you do have 25 psychotic whores. A lot of them come from very dysfunctional backgrounds, and women together like that can be very dangerous.”

Agreed. The psychotic whores are also the ones who end up in a brothel. I had a guy friend who used to date a gal who yearned for something beyond the bedroom sex, a sex club. The guy went a couple of times with her, with much hesitation at first, then enjoyed it when he was in it, went the second time, enjoyed it with some apprehension, and the after-thought was regretful enough that he never went back. And his girlfriend was a psychotic freak to begin with, but her twisted urge was certifiably not conducive to a normal relationship he wanted. He left the psycho. Lastly,  What’s clean about a club with desperate loony bins who can’t seem to fulfill their personal urge or pleasure except to show it outwardly to strangers. Sounds like SHAKE AND BAKE to me.

Helen on female celebrities bringing ho shit to the forefront: “I’m thrilled young girls are claiming their sexuality for themselves. I love bold women: Madonna and Scarlett Johansson—sexy and gorgeous, but not only that. And Miley Cyrus—fantastic! And Lady Gaga. I love the way she’s elevated pop to performance art, or dragged performance art down to pop, or maybe made a wonderful amalgam of the two.”

Madonna, ok…. Scarlett? Miley Trailer-Trash Cyrus who wanted to throw Helen under the bus? The same Miley who can’t shut up and hijacks the oxygen from the colony within her vicinity? How-do-you-put-Miley’s-name-in-the-same-paragraph-as-Lady-Gaga? How about Sandra or Angelina?

Lady Helen, are we on the same page? At the horizon of your age, with an acting career that’s been crafted and perfected, you are far beyond brothels and Miley.
