Red Bulls for the redhead
“Lindsay has always enjoyed a Red Bull, but she eats. Everybody needs to mind their own
business and stop worrying about what Lindsay eats or doesn’t eat.”
That’s what Lindsay Lohan’s rep told People, denying rumors she’s on a liquid diet based on frequent Red Bulls.
I, however, believe it is my business to point out that everybody is singular, but their is plural. Lindsay’s rep should have said, “Everybody needs to mind her own business.”
While we’re on the subject, let’s review other singular pronouns that trip up overpaid celebrity reps.
* the ones - one, everyone, someone, anyone, no one
* the things - everything, something, anything, nothing
* the bodies - everybody, somebody, anybody, nobody
Whether or not is sounds right, these pronouns require singular treatment. So does Lindsay.
