    One way to save the planet, I suppose, if everyone starts getting their bits chopped off and having reassignment surgery.

    If you're thinking of her back when she was in From Dusk Till Dawn, she's "matured" a bit since then.

    That would infer it's an option and if you don't she'll be OK with it. Just like I'd like to get the jiggy on with Salma Hayek but it's likely that won't happen so I'll live with it.
    But I bet that won't be the case.

    This non binary stuff is an utter minefield. Chance of not offending someone one at some point in the future by mistake even if you are trying your best is absolute zero

    Or is she, no wait were they, originally a "he"?
    Judging by the size of them, they eat for several...

    Easy access to drugs, influenced by those a few years older and wiser, became a car crash waiting to happen. Shame.

    Is grandma O'Connor really a role model for young people? Never heard of the other two, so I guess they probably are!

    Demi's not been the same since her first OD. Now has shoulders that could take down a mid-card WWE wrestler.

    O'Connor - shunning Catholicism and takes up an even more controlling one.

    Wonder if Page knows they'll now be completed disregarded as a white male American?

  • Remember when we discouraged celebrities from smoking in public...

    ...as it only encouraged young people to take up something we knew was harmful.

    So it is really ethical for the BBC to publicise the endless array of stars with long histories of mental ilness to now seemingly be 'cured' by whatever gibberish they are clinging to for sanity?

    Demi Lovato seems to be the latest one.

    And when kids are all nervous wrecks after a year of the Wuhan terror, do they really have to get Ellen Page's "my life was terrible until I got my norks chopped off, now it's all sunshine and flowers." story shoved in front of them for a week?

    Anyway we should start a sweepstake on who is next, my money is on Grenade O'Connor. Ticks all the boxes. Islam isn't the end of her 'journey'.
