On the train I met a blond she had a heart shaped face reading a glossy magazine about famous stars. It had on its cover a picture of an actor sitting on his horse looking splendidly masculine, his eyes deep blue. “You know this actor?” she asked, “Yes I’ve seen him on TV. “ Did you know that he’s gay?” She told me about stars and other celebrities like she knew them personally, where they lived and how, her knowledge of the world gleaned from glossy magazines. I was charmed so much useless facts about insignificant, people when the train stopped at my station an hour had gone and I knew more about the glamorous’ life than I ever wanted to and didn’t believe a word of it, but she was sweetly naive dreaming of living like she thought celebrities did.
