Ladies (and gay men)
At some point in your life you have to watch "Valley of the Dolls." I just can't make that point in clearer. ("I'm Nelly O'Hara! NELLY O'HARA!!!) Watch "Valley of the Dolls" and "Mommie Dearest." And don't watch the weird sequel to "Dolls" that was written by that famous film reviewer (Roger Ebert with weird director Russ Meyer) unless you want to be scarred for life by it's horribleness. Camp is only good when it's taken seriously in the first place.
As for Mommie Dearest ...
"BECAUSE I'M NOT ONE OF YOUR FANS!"
You need to see it just for that line alone so you can shout it at people. And you have to shout it the exact same way Diana Scarwid does with her stilted, overacting against Faye Dunaway's stilted, overacting otherwise it doesn't count!

I would think a newspaper writer might be a little more conscientious about spelling and punctuation. I just can't make it ANY clearer. And it's Neely O'Hara, not Nelly. And "otherwise" needs a comma before it for readability.
