Diablo Cody on cover of Bust Magazine

Posted by Superheidi | Thu, July 30 2009

Diablooow "The Prime of Miss Diablo Cody" is a new article in the August/September '09 edition of feminist/pop culture slave Bust Magazine by Jill Soloway.

Referred to in the article as 'beautiful and brainy' as well a 'genius', it is clear that Cody embodies the high level of pretentious modern 'makeup as a feminist statement' philosophy to which magazines like Bust cater.

If Diablo Cody thinks she's the future of girl driven horror movies, I may just go mad.
