Beth Ditto: 'I'm too poor to move to UK'
The Gossip's Beth Ditto isn't moving to her adopted home of Britain anytime soon - because she's too poor.
The singer has been spending more and more time across the pond after being welcomed into Europe's warm busom, but she says she can't afford to set up home in the UK.
She explains, "Posh and Becks even moved because they were too poor to buy a house here.
"Do you know what the pound is compared to the dollar? No, way.'
"I don't have the money to buy a house or the sanity, geeze-louise!"

I live in UK and can't afford to buy a house!!! The cottage next door to us is for sale. It is half the size of ours and going for £179,000.
That'd be $367,758.43. For a house with no drive or garage, a tiny garden and one bedroom.

It's the cream one in the middle. Our rented house is the one on the right. It's cute and all but they're asking way too much!

For some reason, I always thought she WAS British.

So did I actually.
I think it's because usually with these British girls, I know who they are but I don't really care/take interest in them. And with her, I knew who she was but didn't care about her...so I assumed she was British. That and no one else knows who she is.

I hate it when celebs or faux-celebs pretend they're poor. Pisses me off. Shut up.

And to think, people back in the day made fun of Cass Elliot's weight! This gal makes Cass look positively lean.
I have no idea if she's talented or not. I'd have never heard of her if it weren't for gossip boards.
