Dateline WTF-ville:
The New York Times recently called Heidi Montag a 'feminist hero' in a review of the MTV reality show, 'The Hills.' Um....yeah. We're not sure if it was the Stuff men's magazine pictorial, the boob and/or nose job, or the "very sexual" music she claims to perform, but something about Heidi got the Times thinking Nora Ephron and Margaret Mead. Ah yes, magnanimous activism in the form of rampant, scantily-clad self promotion and yet another fashion line - 'Heidiwood'; just what the world's been longing for.
Look, calling Heidi a 'feminist hero' is like calling me a vegetarian because I occasionally have broccoli or carrots with dinner. According to In Touch she is "very honored to be called a feminist hero." She considers herself a feminist and she's happy to accept the 'hero' title, but when asked about her feminist role models she had little to say:
"Um...I'll get back to you on that one."
Right. Ok, Heidi, just nod your pretty little head and act like you know what everyone is talking about. I'm sure if the New York Times had called her a great 'chiropodist' she'd just talk about how amazing it is to be considered alongside all those other renowned chiropodists such as.......
That's right, kids; chiropodist. Look it up.
