“There’s always a good part left!”
We couldntinterview Brooke Shieldsandnotask her to help us settle some of our favorite low-stakes controversies.
So we asked for her major opinions on some minor issues.
REAL SIMPLE: When should you gas up the car?
Before the fuel light comes on or after?
BROOKE SHIELDS:I’m a before gasser, my husband’s an after gasser.
(That didn’t sound right.)
I’ve got to have a full tank.
I do this with the charge on my phone, too …
I need to confirm all my bases are covered.
I was an only child.
I’m really edgy.
RS: Is it OK to crack your knuckles?
BS:I heard it makes them bigger, but it feels really good.
But it can’t be great for them in the long run.
I stopped doing it, but my hands havent gotten any less manly.
RS: Should toilet paper be hung so that it rolls over or under?
BS:Toilet paper over.
It’s just the way it’s done, people.
RS: Is the five-second rule real?
BS:Man, I had a half-hour rulefor my kids.
I’d be like, Oh, here, you’re fine.
Got to get those antibodies!
RS: Wearing socks to sleep: Yay or nay?
[Whispers]Cashmere.
Brooke Shields
We just did away with our top sheet.
We’re just a duvet.
Because we’re very European.
RS: Is it OK to eat around the moldy parts of bread and cheese?
BS:I have done it for both, and my husband was so appalled.
He was like, You’re going to get sick.
It’s already living in there.
RS: Is it OK to let your dog lick your face?
BS:I don’t think so.
My dog … still has puppy breath, but I know there’s bacteria.
But for some reason, her mouth seems so clean!
It can’t be that sanitary because they will eat garbage and gum from under a chair.
you’re free to’t do it.
RS: Is it OK to sit on a public toilet seat?
BS:Oh, I don’t sit on public toilets.
I’m a hoverer.
I had this perfect baby hold, and I would hover them and they got real used to it.
BS:We just did away with our top sheet.
We’re just a duvet.
Because we’re very European.
