I started off thinking it was a clever parody of Price is Right contestant behavior. That dance at the end was manic, creepy, and desperate. An overgrown child "doing momma's favorite dance," not understanding no one else will ever find it as delightful as she does. I wanted him to get out of the way so I could see the handsome man behind the pool table.

The entire Dylan saga is a trip to watch. I know it's been said many times before about him and other, equally ridiculous people but: damn would this ever be some top shelf performance art! But no, the gleam of madness in his eyes is too genuine.

What's interesting is that pic of Dyland and Drew Barrymore on her show, where they kneel of the floor together, clasping hands. Do grown women ever do this with each other on talk shows? It was Hollywood slumber party bullshit, I expected them to tell each others fortunes and talk about which senior boys they liked. The infantile and infantilizing behavior between Dylan and his female enablers is a thing to watch. Whether they know it or not, a lot of them act like they are dealing with someone who they see as either a child or not mentally all there. I see it in IRL situations too when women comfort trans women....there is this cooing, simpering quality that I don't see them afford others, like they are trying to dissuade a particularly fragile preschooler from crying. They subconsciously broadcast their own disbelief.
