Liz Phair Roofied And Forced To Participate In Matrix Parody

That is the only possible explanation for how this could exist. That or Liz Phair not having anyone around her who cares enough to tell her that the AOL people are not at the top of the movie-spoof-creating field. Or even in the same decade:

If you had asked me this morning if there was any more of my teenhood left for Liz Phair to ruin, I would have laughed. But she just keeps finding a way. Be sure to watch at least until she says "Let's hug it out, bitch," -- the "Alrighty, then!" of the '00s.

Liz Phair is another argument in favor of making fun of adopted kids.

that was horrible and embarrassing, but it's going to be just like it is (was?) with anna kournikova...she's hot so she can be as bad and corny as she wants while still maintaining a 'career.'

Dear Liz,
I'm willing to forget everything you've done to hurt our relationship after Whip-Smart. You can still be my blowjob queen. x

I know she's not taking it seriously or anything but this just hurts my feelings. Why is she doing this to us?

So, Liz has a sense of humor about herself. I actually enjoyed this little parody. Sure, it's corny, but that was kind of the point. I'm glad Liz is doing what feels right to her, regardless of what anyone thinks. Isn't that what we all loved about her in the first place?

This was filmed like a cheap porno. I kept expecting Morpheus to strip down Phair.
