What a piece of pure, unadulterated (no pun) BULLSHIT!
So you'd have us believe that sweet little innocent "Brandy Alexandre"
(Karleen Smith) walked meekly into the Forest Lawn offices and
unassumingly applied for a job as Executive Secretary to none other
than the Director of the place, and then proceeded to type her little
fingers to the bone, gaining the admiration of all?
It's obvious that this fluff piece of shit was written by
Brandy/Karleen herself, probably while high on God knows what.
You've heard of the casting couch? What's the equivalent in the
funeral business, the casting coffin???
She wasn't fired because her boss found out she was a porn whore. He
had hired her precisely BECAUSE she was a porn whore. And had been
fucking her in every hole she could take it for three years. No, she
got fired because Forest Lawn's Board of Trustees found out what the
Director had been up to with her, and let's face it, who was more
valuable to the organization (or harder to replace)?. Simple as that.
Not only is Karleen Smith/"Brandy Alexandre" a con artist, she's also
a rewritter of history/peddler of bullshit like no other.
I don't get what this has to do with usenet or celebrity gossip. Brandy
is fun to chat with and she always seems polite and kind compared to
the people attacking her.
LOL!
Is this really the BIGGEST scandal in Hollywood?
Talk about desperate!
Miss Alexandre should be amused!
