Ahhh, Maria Sharapova and Paris Hilton. Two lovely young ladies who are to be admired for their successes: Paris is a world champion in being born rich and then accidentally-on-purpose circulating bongo vids of herself in order to flog us a bunch of shit bearing her name; whilst Maria is an expert in winning tennis matches by shouting during rallies to distract her opponent.
But they have something else in common - both, when interviewed, affect a lazy drawl which makes them sound as if they’ve been force-fed a box of Ritalin and then given a red wine enema. Why do they do it? To sound cool, or just to piss me off? I suspect the latter.

Shit, are these good examples of what you’re talking about?
Paris
Maria
Almost irrespective, I suspect it is both because they’ve been given the ritalin / red wine enema treatment as well as specifically to piss you off. In fact, I’ve read interviews in which they both make in unambiguously clear that they speak like that to piss you off.
Interestingly (!) if you play both clips simultaneously in different tabs (or windows if you’re still living in the stone age and using IE6) then the similarities do become very clear.
Good work, TM. Not the worst example I’ve seen of Sharapova slurring, but the Paris one is exactly what I mean. Bastards.
Mr Sandwich - we’re very interested in the health treatments you describe in your post - is this something that is on offer at Claremont Mansions on a regular basis? Can this be combined with a post-treatment wine-tasting event?!
ps two comments I defintely won’t post are:
1. Don’t know about the drawl, but any video clip of Paris Hilton without a cock in her mouth is certainly progress (and she now takes her acting very seriously, she even plans to read a book on it, just as soon as she’s got the hang of the alphabet)
2. The other thing these two ladies have in common is that they’re both accustomed to having two balls in their hand just before they deliver a service.
The other thing they have in common of course is that err… in both cases… umm… if truth be told… I’m quite sure I wood. Not wanting to be too contrarian, but I find that drawl thing… well… kind of sexy.
I have this awful feeling this is because I spent my salad days sleeping with girls who were often very drunk. Admittedly no more drunk than I. But that was invariably very drunk.
Maybe they’re both p*ssed and cant help but slur.
Just a thought.
*I’ll get my coat*
…shut the door on your way out.
What about both together?!
On second thoughts THAHM, hold the door a sec I’ll just get my things…
“I’m quite sure I wood”
Apt typo.
