Good Crabbing - Drew Barrymore
Click HERE to Bring Up Full Post

ContactMusic.com has reported that when a fan of Drew Barrymore tried to have plastic surgery done on a reality TV show so that she would look just like the actress, Barrymore made the effort to call the contestant and persuade her not to undergo the surgery.

I am not a fan per se of Barrymore; she is bubbly, giddy and fun-loving, personality traits which drive my potatoes-and-beer Celtic-Teutonic DNA to a state of irritated gloom. That said, she did a very honorable thing and she gets the first award for Good Crabbing.

How obsessed we are as a culture with appearances, to the point of creating a cosmetic surgery industry and a television show thereafter. How good and decent of Barrymore, who could have feigned ignorance or a busy schedule instead of stepping up.
