Don't believe everything you read my friends!

"Drew Barrymore Named People's Most Beautiful Person Who Happens to be Appearing in Corporate Sister Projects

Walk by the newsstand or flip on any of the entertainment tabloid shows and you'll see Drew Barrymore staring back at you from the cover of this week's People, where she's anointed the Most Beautiful Person of all 100 Most Beautiful Persons.

But perhaps her cover isn't an example is celebrating surface-level beauty worship as it is an example of corporate synergy.

People is published by Time Inc., which is owned by Time Warner. And guess what movie studio just put out Drew's recent flick, Music & Lyrics? That'd be Time Warner's Warner Bros. studio.

And which studio is behind Lucky You, which debuts this Friday and stars Eric Bana and, oh wait, Drew Barrymore? That'd be Warner Bros.

And what studio is behind Drew's upcoming thriller He Loves Me? Ah, yes, that'd be Warner Bros., too."

Nothing like the have-haves singling out the REALLY have-haves for more praise. I guess we have-nots don't have a thing to contribute.

Drew most beautiful? Alrighty then.

doesn't surprise me one little bit.

That's pretty lame. But either way, I like Drew. She's always seemed cool to me.

Well I wondered how someone not beautiful would make that list. She may be a nice person or whatever, but she's not pretty.
