  1. I guess if you truly are passionate about something, you can do just about anything. I like Springsteen and Bono felt ones. Jackie Chan one looks creepy :)

  2. While I appreciate her creativity, I'm not sure how surviving cancer has anything to do with this. I just give her credit for putting such emphasis on these stars and there teeth. Did anyone else notice the choppers on these things???
