The other morning, I was listening to a local drive-time radio show, and the subject was actress Ashley Scott. I guess one of the guys had been in something with her, and he was extolling how attractive she is, and the two main hosts were like, "Who is that? I have never heard of her," and "What has she been in? I don't think I've ever seen her," and all the third guy could think of to say was, "Well, she's... super hot. And an actress." You all, of course, may remember her from Jericho or the short-lived and awful WB show Birds of Prey, or perhaps as the actress who was cast as the neighbor in the original, unaired Joey pilot before being unceremoniously replaced. (We suspect she dodged a bullet on that one.)
But I'm guessing Ashley Scott heard that broadcast and was upset at the fumes of her own anonymity wafting from her car speakers. Why else would she leave the house in this?

There is no way any store, ever, anywhere, sold that thing as a dress. It just didn't happen. It's a SLIP. A legally blind dolphin with a meth problem could tell you that. Not only is it a slip, but it's a really, REALLY tight one. Which is also see-through. THAT IS NOT CLOTHES. How hard is it to grasp that UNDERGARMENTS go UNDER things? It's RIGHT THERE in the word, people! It's built in for your convenience! It's like the world's easiest code!
If you're wondering why she's got the bashful smile on her face, it's quite probably because the photographers clamoring to document her rear view are getting an eyeful -- and a lens-ful -- of this:

If Ashley really was none the wiser about her choice of outfit -- and I suppose anything is possible -- then all I can say is, she needs to rehabilitate her her powers of observation. However, I have THE most impossible time imagining that she had no idea it was transparent -- how does one stretch that on over one's skin and NOT think, "Hmm, this is very... thin." No. You wear that to be seen.
There are a few rules of thumb I I like to live by, and they include: anything that fastens with a bra clasp IS NOT OUTERWEAR; thongs are unflattering on 99.9 percent of the world's derrieres; don't give it all away for free; and always smell your milk before you drink it just in case the expiration date is a lie. A couple of these are being violated here (and for all I know, before she left home, she TOTALLY swigged from an open carton without a precautionary sniff). For a young, pretty actress with years of working opportunities ahead of her, it would be very unfortunate if Ms. Scott is so desperate for attention that she's willing to gnaw on paltry scraps of notoriety thrown her way just because she sauntered out into the chilly L.A. night wearing a thong and a glorified bodystocking. That won't keep you warm at night, kiddo -- neither the publicity nor the slip. Please get dressed. You deserve better, and also, you are making me sound troublingly middle-aged.
