11. Oh, Zeppo OWNED the screen.
He was so charismatic, so magnetic, the others plotted to have him removed.

It's true. I read it on the internets.

14. Totally Ashlee Simpson
I think her sister has a beautiful singing voice. Unfortunately, Ashlee got the short end of the stick on that deal.

20. I agree.
Jessica Simpson does have singing talent, but her sister, Ashlee, does not.

27. Why would you wish that?
Just because you don't like her as a celebrity you wish for an end to her marriage? WTF?

9. George W. Bush, of course!
Of course, in his case, he's riding on the coattails of both a sibling *and* a parent! :eyes:

18. How about relatives in general, not just siblings?
Ozzy Osbourne's daughter (what's her name?). She had an album once, and she was awful (plus she's a major brat).

28. Life As We Know It...on ABC, dunno when/what time.
I tried to block all that info out!

I think it's a Freaks & Geeks show, about high schoolers...so it's not ALL about her, which is a plus.

30. She did, but the songs weren't popular at all.
I remember there was one called "Shut up".

Oh, I think her name is Kelly. Does that sound right?

33. Yeah, he died
Long ago. Cancer, I think.

Donald Nixon was an embarassment to his brother too. Enough so that ol' paranoid Dick had him wiretapped and trailed by the Secret Service.
