So have you guys heard the news? Sali must have a direct line to the Pope, cos he's just told us all to give up trolling for Lent

Pope says to give up TROLLING people on social media for Lent

Pope Francis said there was too much 'verbal violence' in the world which was 'amplified by the internet' as he addressed followers in St Peter's Square today.

She is the queen of overstatement. She hasn’t just written for those titles, she’s written extensively for them.

Journalists really do not chuck adverbs around like confetti in that way.

 

[AdoraDelano]

Wow that's a lot of words in that bio hiding the fact that all she's done is beauty columns. She really doesn't like that beauty is what she's known for.

I've never seen anything she's written about films, has anyone else?

No but it’s her one true, great passion

Must be a bit of fake it til you make it? Obviously angling to be commissioned for film writing but no one’s interested. And the best Shakespeare film is Clueless, don’t suggest otherwise because that is FACT according to Sali the film journalist

I wonder if she entered her queen book. What tf qualifications has she got to judge a literary prize?

Sorry that should be Austin not Shakespeare

10 Things I Hate About You is obviously the best Shakespeare film

I have, there was an article in Empire about how she judged one of her friends boyfriends for his favourite film (can't remember what it was). She also said that if men list Apocalpyse Now as their favourite film that means they're damaged

Edit to add: Mrs Doubtfire was the film

Found it!

Apocalpyse Now as their favourite film that means they're damaged

I'm sure they also prefer lip gloss.

If I were to generalise about men who listed Apocalypse Now as their favourite film, I'd say they're not completely honest about their favourite film.
Unless you say that you love snuff films, I don't put that much emphasis on your viewing choices, since I'm no longer in high school (wearing lipstick as proof).

 

[PineappleQueen19]

It is mind boggling to me that someone can vomit a few hundred meandering, woolly words on when, in their very personal opinion, it’s ok to judge someone for their film preferences... telling a lot of personal anecdotes along the way... and think it even comes close to journalism? Surely not?

I’m not saying you need to go and report on Ebola from the depths of Liberia to claim journalism credentials but there are very basic different types of writing and she is not a journalist by any stretch.

It's not about intellectual snobbery my arse.
I happen to quite like Mrs Doubtfire and I watched it a million times when I was younger.
Nothing to do with my sexual awakenings to Matthew Lawrence.

Omfg....so that's the result when a beauty writer tackles films. The judgement and superiority just shine through. The films...not so much. I can see why her contribution was shortlived.

 

[AmberSpyglass]

One of her “besties” is Terri White , top dog at Empire Mag, did Terri get Sali the film review gig even though she’s not fit to sit next to Mark Kermode’s cinema pass?

 

[SqualorVictoria]

It's not about intellectual snobbery but here are some film picks to show how well rounded my tastes are... and hilariously referring to Wayne's World and The Jerk as "puerile"- I mean, they're not exactly Rob Schneider films or Sausage Party! And I can't imagine any film buff sneering over Boogie Nights, for example. Paul Thomas Anderson is an acclaimed director. Her "I'm not a film snob, look at my wildcard choices" are still very carefully thought out

 

[HowardMoon]

Dear me, that early noughties fashion has NOT stood the test of time ...

That horizontal mullet though!

Going back to Sali’s beloved canvas pouches for a sec, I just googled them and the slogans are not ok

 

[Tesla's Ghost]

As it was prophesied, her dullness will be the end of us!



A gif from Apocalypse Now for the damaged.

She’s RTing Dawn O’Porter...

(Why yes, I am extremely bored. In bed, poorly.)

Can’t wait for tomorrow’s column

Poor you @Disillusioned - hope you feel better soon.

are we hazarding a guess? New foundations? For a casual boost to her paymaster (EL)

Get well soon.

Guys, guys, guys...be reasonable, Sali’s just signalling that she is now DoP’s dearest old friend through the medium of re-tweeting. Remember they BOTH said sorry. So touching.
