Drop Dead Gorgeous (1999)

"Mom gave me this 9mil for my birthday, I'll always remember what she wrote in the card. "Jesus loves winners". That's why, no matter what I do, I aim to win."

Grab your tap shoes and put some vaseline on your teeth, because we're going to Mount Rose, Minnesota and talking DROP DEAD GORGEOUS. BJ talks a lot about her history as a child and teenage beauty queen, Harmony dives deep into the peculiar culture of Midwestern small towns where everybody knows everybody, both lament the glory of Kirstie Alley's incredible hair, and we discuss why we think this movie was a financial and critical flop upon release that eventually gained a cult following
