Random Picture Entry: Drew Barrymore Is Too Fast To Live, Too Young To Die
God, I so want a "Too Fast To Live, Too Young To Die" t-shirt! Even though it would be a big lie. This is one of my fave pix of Drewski; a thousand years ago I put it on the cover of a zine, cut off most of Drew's head, and handscrawled the zine title in lovely cursive across her left upper arm, 'cause I'm clever like that. I think it's from Details, and I wish I could remember more about the Anais Nin-inspired erotic poetry. Or maybe I wish I knew less about the Anais Nin-inspired erotic poetry, now that I think about it.
Anyway, in the current ish of New York mag there's this really over-the-top piece that cheekily likens Drew to sunshine, cookies, and "fluffy puppies and mild hallucinogenic drugs, tucked neatly into a gift basket made of daisies," then less cheekily asserts that "Barrymore's warmth salvages the lamest chick-flicks (Home Fries, Fever Pitch); renders merely okay ones (Music and Lyrics, Never Been Kissed) delightful to watch; and transforms genuinely great romances - 50 First Dates, The Wedding Singer - into classics." Which I don't think is entirely true, especially the part about that fucking dreadful Music and Lyrics. But yeah, she's pretty cute.
Another thing about Drew Barrymore is she's the one mega-celebrity known to be in possession of a nogoodforme.com sticker. Probably she's been checking the blog multiple times daily ever since Laura generously passed the sticker off to her in a bar last January, but who knows? Are you out there, Drew? Stop being shy and go on and leave a comment sometime. Nobody likes a lurker!

Say something so insightful and witty, it will blow us away. (No pressure.)
Got something to say? We'd love to hear it! Name, email and "type in the weirdo drunken text" thingie are all required to comment; don't worry, we won't email you or anything, we just want to make sure you're not an evil spambot. Keeping in mind the good-times mentality we like to keep going here, we've worked hard to keep NOGOODFORME.COM as fun as possible. We welcome all kinds of comments, but insults/abuse/general bitchery are not tolerated. In other words, we put the smackdown on evil troll posts. If you want to be a hater, please go elsewhere. Now, as Salt 'N Pepa say, "Only the sexy people..."
I'm a lurker... usually. I tend to like myself... usually.

For a second there, I thought Natalie was TOTALLY Drew Barrymore in disguise. That would have been so cool!
It's weird to see that photograph NOT as the cover to Deliciosa #whatever!!!
