MORFORD: Open Letter To Kate Moss
San Francisco Chronicle ^ | 10/5/5 | Mark Morford

Posted on 10/05/2005 7:48:29 AM PDT by SmithL

Oh my waifish, coke-snorting love, how they have abused and betrayed you. We shall overcome.

Oh my dearest Kate,

Something is amiss. Something is deeply askew in the culture and you know it and I know it and the world knows it and something must be done.

This much we know, Kate: Rock stars are supposed to be debauched and swaggering and dumber'n concrete. TV stars are supposed to be overrated and self-indulgent and wired on amphetamines and viciously jealous of movie stars who are, in turn, airbrushed egomaniacal limelight sluts, terrified of their own shadows and so desperately jacked on a daily cocktail of Botox and Xanax and Veuve Cliquot it would make Liza Minelli giggle.

And supermodels, well, most supermodels are supposed to be, by definition, morally vacuous featherweight coke-snorting divas floating above the gap-toothed plebeian throngs on gossamer wings of Prada and Dolce and Tanqueray gin, all fueled by the raging white-knuckle jealously of 500 million women worldwide who will never ever look like you but who will spend, collectively, $400 trillion per year trying.

This is the way it is. This is the way it has always been. This is, after all, why we love you.

Which is why I am deeply ashamed and horrified at what the media, the culture, those snide fashion houses (especially them) have done to you, Kate. Burberry, Chanel and H&M have all dumped you like a bad burrito

and cut up your multimillion-dollar contracts (cosmetics giant Rimmel London is currently "reviewing" theirs, but it doesn't look good), treating you like a goddess one day and a pariah the next, all over one grainy paparazzi shot of you chopping up a line of premium flake

Actually, I liked this article because it makes an observation I made on another thread.

The sodomite movement is the continuation into our own time of late 70's meat rack disco, coke spoon culture. The sodomites are the last ones partying like its still 1979. They are stuck in a time warp of their heyday before AIDS hit. And that is why it will fail. If there has been one consistent theme of popular culture since 1980 it has been the rejection of excess and sodomite culture is based on bare-backing, bugchasing, crystal meth, party til you vomit excess.

Morford comes to Kate Moss's defense because the sodomite dominated high fashion world is the last bastion of excess.

?? I read the article, and I was under the impression that he was mocking her, not defending her.

No, he was not mocking her.

He was affectionately supporting her.

"Yes, you models are vacant cokeheads and I love you for it. Kate, you are the last of your generation who hasn't turned all square."
