This was reported a while ago, along with the rumor that Bruce Springsteen was spotted on a test drive... but even cooler then that, a C/B class celeb that actually knows cars, Adam Carolla, with the Loveline/The Man Show/Crank Yankers trifecta, has an MCS...

Not used to hearing about Madonna without a scandal? OK, here's the scandalous part: This car is priced so low, it's affordable to the general population.
The person that wrote this article is an idiot....

OH NO! The Queen is driving around in a car made for the PEASANTS!
Now THAT is SCANDALOUS!!!!!
Please......*gag* :evil:

>> The other night on the show someone pointed out to Anna a MINI and asked her "what do you think of those little cars?" Anna's response, "I don't like the shape!" Oh well....at least we can all sleep easy knowing Anna doesn't approve!

Well at least some things are still right with the world!

That show is VERY painful to watch.....

And then right after she said that, she began to teeter and list seriously to port...only to be caught by her ever-present assistants/sidekicks???? OK, I'll admit to having watched the show once or twice. That lady is just tooooooo weird.

Does she EVER stop eating? I remember her Guess adds, and she was curvey, but far from the buffet-line troll that she turned into. Thank God she doesn't like the car. Ha! But I do find it funny that someone with her figure would comment on the shape of something.

And as for what "celebrities" drive....WHO CARES! Just because they have a job that puts them in the public eye means were supposed to care about their lives? The fact that some people can't get enough Entertainment Tonight/E!/Access Hollywood is really downright sad.

The woman down the street from me drives a Blazer. Oh wait, she's not a celebrity so why would anyone care?

Aaahhh... I love that show... I liked the decorator fights lately...

but it's just weird to realize that one of her 'sidekicks' Howard Stern (not the radio guy) is her friggin lawyer who helped her keep all of the money from her dead husband... weird... why would you hang out with your lawyer all the time?

That woman's show is the absolute worst!! I think her lawyer follows her around 24/7 to protect her from herself. I'm sure she is a lawsuit waiting to happen... listen and watch her.... no brains... no nada. I can't watch the show because it's so depressing watching her and her "staff" do nothing all day.

I'm so glad I'm not the only one watching Anna! What can I say...guilty pleasure.
Maybe she'd like a MINI covered in luxurious pink fur designed by Bobby Trendy!

I'll admit I watched Anna twice out of curiosity. What drugs is she taking? Talk about spacy person.

Can we please move this thread to Off Topic so that we can engage in a full conversation about the weirdness that is Anna Nicole...and my theory on how her show represents the decline and total collapse of western civilization?

Reminds of something that happened on a soccer field in England---Paul Ince (who is black) had an injury to his head and had it bandaged but carried on playing. Paul Gascoigne called over to Ince and said, "Incy, you look like a Guinness."

When all is said and done and one steps back to gain perspective........do we reeeally CARE what Madonna drives? Even if it IS a MINI? By now, she's probably moved onto a different ride.
