What's Wrong with People?

Thanks to John Duke for the link. And I'm sure they meant to say "Fewer than 40 . . . ."

Reality - News - Low turnout for Hilton's reality show - Digital Spy: "Less than 40 people have showed up to audition to be Paris Hilton's best friend in her new reality show.

New York casting directors were reportedly disappointed by the meagre turnout for MTV's Paris Hilton's My New BFF.

The series aims to pit 20 aspiring It-girls against each other in a bid to prove they have what it takes to be the socialite's BFF (best friend forever)."

i think the mistake was rather "fewer than 40 million...."

I think you two and the producers have all failed to realize that her fanbase is mostly older men who find vapid 20-something blondes amusing, rather than the kids the producers, presumably at least some of them older men, are presumably hoping for primarily.

Pretty sad when you have to hold auditions for your best friend on a "reality" show.

Glad someone else is driven to the edge of insanity by less/fewer mistakes. So many grammar pet peeves; so little time.

History teachers care about that?
