This morning my suspicions that the world is indeed going to hell in a handbasket were confirmed.
Tom "Couches Are At My Mercy" Cruise, in a feat of peculiarity that outdoes even him, has had a bronze cast made of baby Suri's first poo.
I just don't know where to start on this one.
The SMH article describes it as a scatological sculpture. Its going to be auctioned for charity, hopefully (according to the gallery director) for a sum of between $US25,000 and $Us30,000. At present the highest bid is $US41.
I wonder who's bright idea this was? And more importantly, did they scoop the poo out of Suri's nappy? Did they keep it in a plastic container in the fridge?
And who is going to buy this shit? Not some discerning art lover. It will be some psycho stalker.
Thanks to Superdrewby for alerting me to this, um, different piece of "art."
In other news, the latest DNA magazine arrived in my mailbox this morning. This month I decided against the making the nerve-wracking expedition to the newsagent to buy it in person and bought it online. Not because of any embarrassment on my part, but simply because I am just not feeling well enough to go out and buy it in person. This issue is the 20 Hottest Men Alive issue. I was a little amused to see that Brad Pitt garnered the number one spot (again). To be honest I just don't see the attraction. It seems that just about every other gay guy and straight woman on earth would disagree with me, but I just don't think he's the hottest man alive. I mean he's attractive, yes, but the hottest? No.
Jake Gyllenhaal took out second position, followed by Jake Wall. Neither of these guys had made a place last year, despite being, in my humble opinion, much hotter than Brad.
Does anyone else have anything to say on this? I'm curious to know if I'm the only freak who isn't drooling over Brad Pitt.

I'm with you Dan. I don't get the whole Brad Pitt thing either. I haven't got the latest DNA yet, who does the voting? I love the photo of Jake G you've used – I love his little belly! I'm also a big fan of Jake W (he's my all time fav DNA cover model – #69); but, I wish I'd never heard him speak (or read the interview with him in MCV) – he's seems a little too 'regional Queensland' for my liking.
You're not crazy - I can't see the Brad attraction at all either! I'd rather some Jake.... or some Johnny Depp...
And yes, since Tom Cruise isn't an oh-so-avant-garde post-modern artist, making a bronze cast of your babies first poop does seem a little odd.
Ok, not to be different, but I find Brad quite dreamy. Actually I asked a friend who also finds him attractive what it is.. and both of us couldn't really say. Must just be an overall thing. NOW, onto Jake and the picture you have...well... "YUM" is about all I can say. Thanks for the picture, and I'm going to hunt down this DNA magazing, sounds great. Great blog btw!
Nup - I don't like Brad Pitt either - and really can't see the attraction, never have been able to!
i used to like brad pitt before he got all "branifer" and "brangelina". but now, the attraction has worn off.
ok, I', not commenting on the boys but the poo- there is no way in hell that perfectly formed shit came out of a baby's nappy. So unless they held that baby dangling in the air while it shat (unlikely, and if so the words "child abuse" spring to mind), so I reckon the poop cast is a FAKE. Fake poo- sorry Tom, that is SOOOOO 1986.
The only time I ever fancied Brad Pitt was for his bit-part in 'Thelma and Louise.' He's waaaaaay too pretty to be handsome, for me anyway. Give me Jake G any day.
Oh, and Steven - consider yourself lucky you only had to read MCV's interview with Jake W, and not actually interview him! Thick as a brick.
Ohh, even I'd have jumped him in Thelma & Louise! *drool*
Here I am thinking, can Suri-the-adult sue for something or other if that poo comes back to ruin her marriage or something? Surely its not cute when you are 16 and trying to get a date.
"oohhh, will you go out with me?"
"haha, I saw your baby turd"
