McCain is pretty, oh so pretty

EXCLUSIVE: John McCain Uses Idol Makeup Artist!
John McCain, whose ads skewer Barack Obama for his "celebrity" status, has his own close ties to show business, the new issue of Us Weekly reports exclusively.

The 72-year-old was recently made TV-ready by makeup artist Tifanie White who's worked on So You Think You Can Dance and American Idol.

McCain paid the 2002 beauty-school grad $5,583.43 for her services, according to the Federal Election Commission.
In case you were wondering how much bondo, grout, belt sander pads, and rouge are needed to tart up John McCain into looking fully animated, it's about five and a half grand worth. On the other hand, his dentures can bite through titanium and were fitted to him a decade ago as part of the Defense Department's Project Reaver, in which high level operatives were fitted with dangerous body augmentations for shits and giggles. So that was free. The turtle waxing of his cranium and the skin bleaching (for that extra paleness) are included in the five grand price tag.

However, he will need another five grand of bodywork and latex paint to fully weatherproof him for the winter. Donations can be made on McCain.com.
