    OMG I feel for that poor sociopath (or socialite... whatever).:

    The last time I wore my little red dress, I didn't realize that my boxers were showing.
    Was I embarrassed. :oops:

    Quite possibly the most pointless article I've ever taken the time to read.

    You mean you read the WHOLE THING, jeez you have patience, I stopped 3 lines into it. Personally I don't care about rich people or their lies.

    Definition of a socialite:

    Someone who thinks they have a lot of friends (even a casual observer would believe this) but they have none.

    The only reasons that you see them surrounded by other people are:
    they have money
    the press follows them around because some people are interested in their lives as they have no life of their own

    Don't worry, kitty, I think some guys are just disappointed that the "embarrassing" incident involving a little red dress wasn't what they were hoping for :wink:

    Actually the definition of a socialite is someone who's a prominent figure in society, through their participation in social activities and/or fundraising events. I think your "definition" is more of a crude stereotype.

    Also, those people with "no life of their own", in fact, simply have interest in fashion that you obviously don't appreciate, much like some people have an interest in video games, hockey teams, or UFC fighting that others might not appreciate.

    Since you missed it, the story is not about a "poor socialite" being abused, it's about a fashion designer that puts a lot of work into promoting their work, only to be demoted to being a nameless seamstress that helped alter a vintage dress.

    What is this garbage? Where the hell did the REAL news reporters go? Did these amateur lame gossip quens assinate them and take there place? ITS THE END OF NEWS AS WE KNOW IT!.

    Seriously though, this is fucking lame. Why would they write/submit this? Surely thestar has some sort of proof reading system going on?

    This isn't news.. this is advertisement for the designer, pretending to be news.

    This is the definition I found:
    A socialite is a person who is known to be a part of fashionable high society because of his or her regular participation in social activities and fondness for spending a significant amount of time entertaining and being entertained. Some socialites may choose to use their social skills and connections to promote and raise funds for various charitable or philanthropic activities. Socialites are usually in possession of considerable wealth, whether gained by inheritance or otherwise, that can sustain their steady attendance at social functions. Their social movements have been published in the UK's Tatler magazine and they might be listed in features such as the Social Register of the United States.

    So a socialite can be a philanthropist, but not necessarily so.
    You're right though, my definition was more of a crude stereotype and I thought that it would be obvious.
    I put it out there because I find "appalling" that such a story would come out because of this.

    This is a news story from the LIFESTYLE section of The Toronto Star. It is the section of the paper that i read first because that is what interests me. i share it in the hopes that others may find it interesting too.

    i posted it under the appropriate heading "lifestyle" If a story with the title "The embarrassing case of the little red dress" in the lifestyle section does not interest you then just dont read it... ignore it even.



    i would like to point out however, that The Toronto Star is the biggest newspaper in Canada with a weekly circulation of 3,260,000 which is 1.2 million more than the next biggest daily. The most read story today is "The embarrassing case of the little red dress"
