Kitschy Kitschy Kootch: Remember Whatshername?

June 13, 2002 12:01 PM

Kitschy Kitschy Kootch: Remember Whatshername? Iconophile is a locker-room gallery of B-movie and TV starlets who most people have forgotten about or never heard of. It defines itself, quite accurately, as "an angry web geek's multimedia reliquary of the lesser, harder-to-find goddesses and saints of the celebrity pantheon". For connoisseurs, there's real pathos to be found. Not to mention some truly lovely women hidden amidst the inevitable tat and trivia. [For the record, my ever-present has-been of choice could only be Mathilda May.].

They list the ubiquitous Uma Thurman, but not the lovely Julie Strain? For shame!

Nice to see Alex Kingston getting her due, though the gaping whole left by the absence of Minnie Driver needs addressing.

What is it about British chicks...

Funny you should mention that site just now. Only yesterday, I was thinking about it, and what might have become of it. (One of my former sites used to be linked on there, but it's been 2 or 3 years since I sold it, and probably just as long that I didn't visit this site.)

A very similar site is Used-Tissues.com, a repository for disposable celebrities.

A kind of silly site. But I was overjoyed to see a bazillion pictures of Janeane Garofalo the sexiest woman on earth. Let me paint your toenails with my heart, Janeane you goddess.

OK, I'm better now.

She is the uber-babe though. How many of those Baywatch bimbos and Britney clones have recieved musical tribute from Hate! cartoonist Peter Bagge's band, huh?? Thought so.
