Fran Lebowitz Speaks Truth To Stupid

Fran Lebowitz is a cool writer but in certain situations merely being a homely woman gives her a license to state the obvious without being raked over the coals. She went around to a bunch of parties at Fashion Week and shit all over people who take themselves really seriously. Contrary to popular belief, choosing a life in the fashion industry does not make you in any way interesting. If not for the booze, coke, and hot chicks it would be quite a bit more pleasurable to have dinner with your garbage man. As is you’re breaking even, assuming someone’s picking up the tab at this shitty restaurant. 18 bucks for a martini? Go fuck yourself. This is Lebowitz blithely enjoying herself:

“I know we are supposed to say beauty is inner, but come on. If that was true, there would be no models. Artifice is fashion. People’s concept of beauty is different now than it was 50 years ago… It used to mean blond, blue-eyed white girl, and now it can be any color of person and any ethnicity. But still beautiful. There are no models that are not beautiful. They may not be to your taste … but that is a personal thing.”

In other words, you are all superficial twats and that’s totally fine. Just stop pretending otherwise. Putting a chubby chick alongside six smoking hot ones on the cover of Vogue doesn’t make you socially conscious. Showing your tits in magazines has nothing to do with female empowerment. Nothing any of you say matters. We’re supposed to want to fuck you not listen to you talk. We have Lebowitz for that. There’s a remarkable difference between you and her. She reads and writes, you bend over in swimsuits. Let’s look to her for the political statements, you keep grinding anybody semi-straight from One Direction.
