9. She's monetized emptiness in stilettos

Importance cosplay. Manicure-deep mythmaking. Reverence sprayed over vacancy. Let’s not bullshit ourselves: she is not a passive victim of circumstance, not a hostage to history, not some porcelain doll stuck on a shelf. She chose this. She signed for it. She negotiated it. She keeps showing up, collecting checks, and standing there like a luxury brand of indifference while the world burns, because this isn’t restraint—it’s intentional emptiness packaged and sold as gravitas.

She isn’t elegant; she’s monetized emptiness in stilettos—a be-besting birther mail-order bride who figured out you can get rich as hell by saying nothing, meaning nothing, and letting men project their bullshit onto your face like it’s a fucking IMAX screen.

Every appearance is the same dead-eyed pause-and-pout routine, a platinum-plated absence clocking in to siphon forty million dollars for standing there like a human placeholder while everything collapses around her. This is just another cash extraction in couture—self-adoration polished, silence fetishized, a holy varnish sprayed over a blank stare—sold to theaters so empty they feel like a sociology experiment in mass refusal.
