What people don’t realize about LA is that it is one giant suburb. It’s the most sprawled out and generic “major” city in the US. With the exception of beach side communities, Beverly Hills or the Canyon/Hill communities (where all the celebs live), it’s very generic, sprawly suburbs with plazas at every corner, wide roads, and just cement infrastructure everywhere. LA is really not a glamourous or distinct looking city. It’s car parks, fast food drivins, & palms scattered for good measure. 1/2

MM can say she’s from LA but so are 5+million other regular joes. And Hollywood is the seediest place I’ve ever visited in my life. The BLVD with the walk of fame is wretched. The studios are are located behind gates in the valley. There is no “actual” Hollywood. Celebs hang out on Sunset or in Malibu & I can’t see MM ever being able to afford any places there or having the clout to get in anywhere that wasn’t a place for wannabes or hangers on. She is LA. Generic. Basic. Bitch. They are a 2/3

3/3 They are a dime a dozen there. Its not the impressive place you think it is, folks.


Tell me about it. I rented a room in Venice Beach in the nineties. Glamour had nothing to do with it, although I hear it’s super pricey now.
