“Like cereals in the old food pyramid. ”
Haha! Good one Kate: recommended intake is four servings a day.

It would explain why she looks like a bemused sheep.

I reckon Paris considers Cocaine to be the basis of her diet. Like cereals in the old food pyramid.

At least when you look at lettuce you don’t put on weight, unlike chocolate cake.

I dunno. It’s not THAT far-fetched. Gwynnie did call her poor daughter Apple, and I’m guessing Paris (femme) considers lettuce to be a staple of her “diet”.

Fyodor when Paris Hilton actually follows the trend of naming poor babies after food stuffs and does call her child Lettuce we will all be hailing you as the Prophet. Unfortunately I think the likelihood of this happening is quite high.

On a brighter note I can’t wait to see the headlines “shock horror - Paris has stretch marks” on NW magazine. Even if they have to pencil them in.

Harry,

It’s funnier in French, as their word for Lutetia is Lut√�ce, hence Lettuce. I will now let this pun die a quiet, strangled death. Apologies all round.

“Sorry, (very) lame French/Latin/Parisian pun.”
You do yourself a disservice. It was an intellectual pun.
Although perhaps they could just go the whole hog…

Reporter: So, Paris, why did you call your daughter Lutetia?

Paris: Becuase it sounds so Italian, and I just love Italy! The shoes, the fashion, the looking at pasta…

Fyodor,

The fat was all over the place if you believe that Miss Loos.

Kate,

The fat was all within Posh’ skull.

She’s too thin to be fertile anyway. Aaargh. I do not speak the snark, the snark speaks through me!

(I’ve always wondered if Posh Spice, for example, actually had those babies herself. She was so thin… I was surprised she actually was physically capable of reproducing, given that a woman generally stops menstruating/ovulating when her bodyfat falls below about 12 percent, I believe, though some studies cite 17 percent body fat as the minimum requirement for menstruation. Posh didn’t look like she had 17 percent bodyfat, that’s fer sure.)

And a good point about the scars, Mindy, not to mention stretch marks etc.

What! You mean having kids isn’t all magazine shoots? You mean… *gasp*

Mindy,

You are of course assuming that she carries the baby.

“What, all those stretchmarks? Icky!!! Couldn’t we just pay a surrogate?”

By: Mindy

Mindy — Wed, 01 Jun 2005 02:02:52 +0000

I just can’t imagine Paris actually giving birth. You can’t wear pubic skimming clothing with a caesarean scar and I just can’t see her actually using her ahem ‘bits’ for childbirth. So how this baby will actually be born is a mystery to me. Brits is probably just waking up to this as well.

Yeah, think of the jewelled collar it’ll wear, and how cute it’ll look in Paris’ handbag.

Ahh Mindy, a baby is the ULTIMATE accessory these days. Think of the womens’ magazine’s excitement!
