And there still isn't.

In Andie's defense, she had probably done a lot of blow right before you met her. :P

I met her on Miami Beach once. She had, like, 19 of her kids with her.

I really don't like her in movies. She bothers me for some reason. Glad to hear I am not just being a jerk.
I do like Groundhog's Day though, despite the fact that she is in it.

I loved Four Weddings and a Funeral. She was the worst thing in it, but it was still so funny.

She must have been much more obnoxious when Flori-duh met her… I found her to be very pleasant. (And I was working retail at GapBody when I met her, she could've been really awful. Most were.) Her 25 kids were not at all unruly, either.

Sarah, quit yankin my chain! How many kids does she have for realz? If it's 25, are they all hers? Did she adopt?? If not, her birth canal must be like a water slide. *shudder*

Something tells me Flori-duh is just being a jerk.

Well, she had, I don't know, 47 with her. I'm thinking there may be more. Seriously. Bitch got a lot of kids.

Stoney- You're being the jerk.

Sarah, you give me a commentary boner. It is like a culinary boner but, unfortunately, with less garlic whipped potatoes.

God, Lisa. Now I have to figure out how to get the metaphorical garlic potatoes on the damn table.

Well, it is the path to true enlightenment.

i hate andie macdowell with the irrational yet fiery passion of eleventy billion burning suns.

please pass the garlic potatoes.

Any time there are metaphorical whipped garlic potatoes, it goes without saying that they will be on the table.

Now, let's talk turkey, (and stuffing.)

STM, eleventy billion isn't a number…yet.

Oh no. Luz. NOW you tell me.

I've been using the "eleventy billion" a lot lately. I like that it's such a nice round number.

Maybe that's why HR wants to see me about my expense account on Monday.

because of your comments Sarah, if I ever run into Andie and her 101 kids, I will give her a chance, even though she annoys me in movies. Unfortunately for her, I refuse to like her movies. She just can't act.

Please say "Hi" for me. I'm sure she'll remember… I made sure that her eleventy billion kids felt important.

I always get her and Roddy McDowall all mixed up.

I don't know why I do that. Roddy has an "A"
and Andy has an "E".

McDowAll/McDowEll

Plus Roddy was on Planet of the Apes before Andie was even born.

One of them hocks some great hair die.

I always get Roddy McDowell, Malcolm MacDowell and Roddy Piper all mixed up. I've never really been clear on who Roddy McDowell was, but I know the other two: One was the A Clockwork Orange and Caligula guy, and one was apparently a pro wrestler. According to friends who correct me when I throw "Roddy Piper" in there.

good ol' rowdy roddy piper. i always get him confused with michael mcdonald.

not a true story.

stopthemadness-

i like the culinary, commentary, hot-diggity boner that you're bringing to the table. You served the garlic mashed and put a freakin cherry on top. Plus, I liked your shout out to baby Thaicoons. :)

hmmm, stoney, why would you think that. Just telling it as it happened over 30 ago. I don't think she was any older than 17 or 18 so being a moron (and a wanna be model) was part of her entitlement. I'm sure at this point in her life she is a sterling human being.
BTW I always got her confused with Ronald McDonald

My husband does a the world's best Michael MacDonald impression. He's not very good at Roddy Piper, though.

Flori-duh, I got what you meant. I was an asshole when I was 18, but I'm told I'm delightful now. People DO TOO tell me that.

@ Sarah
I was a stoner at 18 and way before that, too…it was just the way the world worked back then. I just found her amusing as I was a worldly 22yr old and to me she was just a silly child with big dreams. Well, she got where she wanted to go so more power to her. If I'm not mistaken, Andie is the daughter of Old McDonald and was raised on a farm

Some of those kids DID look a little horsey.

why thank you kindly erika!

particularly good comments thread.

kind of off topic: i've thought about submitting a celebrity encounter for a while, but i wasn't sure who to choose (i grew up in SoCal, so saw a lot of celebrities, & worked in a fancy hotel in Santa Barbara for a while, so saw more there . . . even now in the Bay Area I see a bunch . . . who to choose, who to choose?)

Last night I almost punched Rosanna Arquette. Would details be of interest to anyone? Should I submit?

Yes! Yes! Yes!
Yes, please. Please submit.

as long as she was a total bitch. those stories are more fun.

Can someone give me back the two minutes of my life I just wasted reading that stupid ass story?

*Gasp!*

Unnecessarily mean! Unacceptable! Sputter, sputter!
Nadine's a big stupidhead!

I'm totally overreacting, but I hate when people confuse being an asshole with being clever.

So, I, uh, hope I haven't been doing that.

Oh I just saw this! I met Andie McDowell once in an Italian restaurant in Asheville, NC. She was quite pleasant and nice. Not as tall as I would have imagined, (although I'm not exactly short) and she had eleventybillion kids with her. That being said, her voice is quite annoying and I do think Charles should have married Fiona.
True story forreals.

See! I wasn't making that up. She has fully one gajillion children. She is the mother of all creation, with a thick southern accent. Like it or not, people. Like it or not.

I drove for her 3 or 4 times and she was ALWAYS awful! She acted like I was a part of the limousine, and that I existed ONLY to serve or bother her. She never tipped, but of all the vapid and talentless folks in my 20 years on the job, she was far from the worst.

MAMMOTH! SUBMIT your encounter! :-)

Someone who used to comment on MG (don't remember who) said they met her once adn she looked really leathery up close.

I like her, just because her southern accent is so good that I actually WANT to sound like her, which is something I can't say for any other actor. (Looking at you, Sedgwick.)

Side note…The ORGASM ads at the top of this page make the page NSFW, for me! GRRRR!

I'll tell you why I think that, Flori-duh. Because you admitted to fucking with her by encouraging her to do something her boyfriend didn't like. That's being a jerk. It seems like the only crime the woman committed was wanting to meet a fashion designer. You didn't give us enough evidence to be convinced the woman was a "complete snotty moron."

My sister interacted with Andie McDowell when Andie wanted to adopt a dog at a shelter in Montana. She said that Andie was very pretty, but as dumb as a box of rocks.
To Andie's credit she does read children's stories for charity in Montana.

Klein was eating lunch with a companion, he didn't need a teenaged groupie gushing and plotzing in his face.. Oh and neither her or her boyfriend left a tip. Andie and boyfriend had a real sense of entitlement. I lived in the Hamptons for yrs before moving South. Young Andie's "I'm better than you" is typical of many of our Hamptonites. As far as me encouraging her to talk to Klein against her boyfriends wishes…well, it was fun.
