nice letter defending Love ...
I think one of the comments was about how ABC decided they might pick up Love's sitcom for mid-season -- the general gist of the insult was that ABC took pity on Love because she was "slumming as an American Idol correspondent" and "even Bailey's annoying girlfriend deserved better than that."
I don't know what the other comment was -- does anytone else?
We all need to have a sense of humor about ourselves and the people we idolize ... but maybe the point of the letter was that there had been a couple of negative comments about Love in a relatively short period of time -- and to complain about how they seemed to be targeting her. Garfield did well, better than expected -- and that's good news for Love, but it won't be the thing that catapults her career. She's in a bit of a dry spell right now, as we know, but she is still quite visible at awards shows, etc. -- so I guess it makes her fair game for critics who want to tear her down. As some people on this board say, though, she only needs one big hit, or one breakout role (like Charlize Theron in Monster) -- to kick things into high gear and to garner the respect I know she can command. My hope is that If Only comes out soon, to prove she can act and sing to the people who don't know it. And that she follows that up with other grown-up roles in other dramatic films.
