feeding the machine

Two Lopez mentions in one day, I feel dirty. Still, this is so sad that it could not go unshared:

Lopez was devastated by the critical-mauling her films Gigli and Jersey Girl received, and hopes her success in director Robert Luketic's romantic comedy [Monster-in-Law] proves her previous failures were caused by poor film choices, not bad acting. She gushes, "This proves I am a good actress."

Yes. And by Jen's delightful logic Meet the Fockers should sweep the Oscars and Olivier had nothing on Macauley Culkin. Have you seen footage of Sir Larry's take on "aftershave induced pain"? Embarassingly amateur.
