Check this out. It's the original version of Sandra Bernhard's MAC web-commercial. I think that it's something like a lip plumper... I'm not sure, ask BebeMoche or the BF (who has acted as her cosmetics consultant). Honestly, I'm not a super-Sandra fan. I mean, she has made me laugh like crazy and other times she's just so much that she's annoying. However, listen to what she says just before the video hits the minute mark.
Her comments about a "thin-lipped Republican bitch" have been cut from the version of the video now found on the MAC website. The original version is interesting since MAC's parent company Estee Lauder (AKA Beasty Slaughter) is so very right wing but is not above selling their principles by portraying themselves as lefties to make a dollar. (Just trust me on this. Or you could read Estee Lauder's autobiography.) Ms. Bernhard seems to have a similar relationship to her principles. Hmmm... maybe I'm just being a bit harsh and sententious.
And yes, I did have a moment with Ms. Bernhard several years ago. I was reading in the window of a Starbucks in Chelsea when I became aware of somebody looking at me from outside. It was Sandra B. I don't know who she thought I was but she had this "What the fuck?" look on her face. I looked for a few moments, got bored, and went back to reading. I guess she left.
