Quote of the Day
Filed under: Quote of the Day > Selma Blair
"I’ve always thought of it as an old woman’s name, so I demanded that everyone call me Blair. In high school, when people found out my name was Selma, they’d call me things like Smell-ma or Salmonella. That stuff basically came from friends, and I never really had any enemies, so I just kind of smiled through it. I still don’t like my name. It does not fall prettily off the tongue. In fact, it’s hideous. My middle name is James, and I like to be called that."

I'll call you "James", Honey, as I'm licking your gorgeous legs. "Selma" is infinitely better than "Apple" and "Peanut" so your folks are off the hook. Gwenyth and Ingo still have a huge problem - damage control from putting "kick me" tattoos on their children's foreheads.
Why didn't she change it already?, dumb
it does sound old.
She is smoking hot I don't care if anyone says differently
look at me, look at me, look at me….I've got one word to say to you. SELMA.
It would have been more original to call her Smegma Blair. Just my personal opinion.
She's pretty, she also make me proud of my flatness. lol
she is so annoying
i LOVE that name!
get OOOOOVER yourself SELMA
That's funny, I have a grandmother who's sisters are named, I am not kidding, Selma, Elma, Leona, Nelda, Tsnelda, Nora, and Velda.
She's being sarcastic. her last name is Beitner…Blair is her middle name. I'd move some names around too, if my name was Selma Beitner. Lucky for her it doesn't matter, because she's beautiful.
That cop is in blackface
That is a toally fake comment bc her REAL first name is Blair and there is nothing James about it. She went to high school with my Aunt.
She is so gorgeous, I would call her anything she wanted:)
Ohmigosh (yawn) that must be a trial for you!
Re: SBC –
Nope…Cec is right. Selma is her first name, Blair her middle name, and Beitner her real last name. It is on wikipedia.
The above picture pretty much catapults her into skank or slut territory. Skankma, Skutma, or Smegma.
she's so hot. I'm jealous!!!!
Selma is beautiful I met her once at my gynecologists office of all places the celeb gyno Dr Rand Pink I laughed because I didn't that I had a famous vagina. Anyways she was sweet and nice even in the awkward setting. My daughter just showed me this on line and I never saw this site so I wanted to post a positive piece of gossip because lord knows we so many stars getting in trouble. My daughter said you lost wieght,keep it up Mr Perez
I went to High School with her. NOT TRUE. but yes she was called Blair. And we still call her Blair. That is her middle name.
OMFG PEREZ CALLS MYLEY A SLUT EVEYDAMN DAY but I JUST SAW AN AD FOR HER NEW ALBUM ON HIS FUCKING SITE!!! WTF thats it im so over this shit!!
I love Selma Blair, i think she's the cat's meow! Look at how adorable she is…if she wants others to call her by another name that is her choice. Half of Hollywood doesn't even use their real name so who cares. I'm a gonna call her…Ms. Cutie!
Selma is a very pretty name. So is Salma (Hayek, anyone?). I'd take Selma over Blair any day!
Selma is so sexy and gorgeous. Is the cop on her right wearing blackface?
the name Selma isn't ugly… and what is she talking about if her middle name is Blair and not James and her last name is Beitner… is she crazy??
YOU FUCKING MORON SELMA BLAIR!!!!! IF YOU DIDNT LIKE THE NAME SELMA IN THE FIRST PLACE WHY DID YOU USE IT AS YOUR STAGE NAME?!?!?!?!?!?!?!?!?!?!?! WHY DO WE HAVE TO DEAL WITH DUMB HOE PROBLEMS?????
Re: BO – you said it perfectly!
HOW BOUT YOU GP BY YOUR MIDDLE NAME "CUMSLUT" whos poses with cops for pictures? A loser who makes comments in playboy magazine.. For someone who thinks she is so sheek, the bitch has gone downhill.. get some tits before you open your mouth to playboy you ugly old bag.
I love how Selma Blair sits on here and posts comments about herself. Loser
How bout we call her "Manface" Thats so much more appropriate. PS "Blair" nobody gives a shit about you.
She is so ugly. Nice legs, Bad face…check no titis…check….old…check…nasty beat upvagina…check…fucked all of hollywood…check….Ill pass on "James" What a stupid bitch.. this chick should never talk.
The name Selma now is perfect becasue you are OLD!!! hahahah Cougar on the loose!!
She also forgot to mention that she was and apparently still is a pathological liar. Her middle name isn't James. But nice try. Everything out of this womans mouth is an extravagant lie. She doesn't even know who she is at 37 years old. The best role she ever played is Selma James Blair Beitner. Even that isn't real What a sad person.
You have more enemies than you realize Selma.
Lets call her Selma "desperate" blair Or Selma "nobody cares" Blair. I like the ring of both better. Congrats on cruel intentions ten years ago. Ryan and Reese have a respectable career and you are making dumb comments to a cheesy mens magazine. Your handlers are doinga fine job!!!
She is gorgeous! she makes the name Selma HOT!!
My name is Selma too…I like it.
Goddamn, she llooks phenomenal. Selma, please get in touch!
dayummmm selma blair has some nice legs!
GREAT LEGS!! TO BAD YOUR FACE LOOKS LIKE A MAN!!!! LETS SEE THE CLOSE UP SHOT. A DRAG QUEEN!!
This chick is a sad drunken mess. All she does is drink all day and smoke cigarettes, and she wonders why her face is so bloated and haggard looking. Any success she may have, she will destroy. She is the most self destructive person Ive ever met. She is a mean person. BTW her middle name isnt James. Never has been and never was. Biggest Liar Ive ever met
Her real name is Selma Blair Beitner… she's lying about "James." I went to the same school as her.
Ummmm….my name is Selma and I find nothing disgusting about it…what a bitch! It's easy…change your name, she sure as hell didn't become famous right outta high school, so there was more than enough time for her to fix it before she made it "big." C lister (rolling eyes)
Re: anon – hahahahahahahaaaaaaa thank you! that was a good one!
This bitch is straight up sexy
She's sexy. Luv her!
She is such a beautiful girl that her name doesnt even matter
If her middle name is James, I'm surpised she didn't change her professional name to Blair James…then again, names have a vibe and the Selma thing sets her up nicely for second banana comedic stuff. The Civil Rights movement including the historic marches in Selma, Alabama is a mighty touchstone by the way…there are always ways of turning names to a positive! You go, Selma!
Re: Chip – selma james blair is actually her legal name now. that is a fact. matt felker is a nose jobbed jealous bastard who posts lies about this girl who never did a thing to him. She dropped Beitner before she was ever an actress.
Re: matt – matt felker calls papparazzi to say insulting things to selma blair. he writes in to gossip sites hourly to write heinous lies about her.he is a poor , bulimic, nose jobbed, self tanned, foundation wearing, insecure, stalking, beer bellied, celebrity WHORE-ing, lying , sociopath who comes from a cheating, messed up , broken home. talentless matt felker, aka brad lenz, is a stalker to selma.
Re: Despe – selma is 36 years old. not 37. her name is actually selma james blair. matthew nicholas felker and his plastic surgery face have so many enemies. I am sure she is so sorry she ever dated a desperate fool like him who posts these comments about her. he is a vindictive sociopath towards women. rumor has it.
Re: felke – matt felker aka (what a joke) brad lenz has a laughable nose job, and a sociopathic obsession with ruining selma blair. what a sad person.
Re: jan f – what closeted video, model, actor? ha! who dated an actress, takes aderrall…, binges and purges, screws men, works out at equinox in LA, had a nose job, liposuction, can't let go of his break up to this ex girlfriend, stole from her, and tries to ruin her life? She used to call him angel . he calls himself radrick 55 or cherub 111.
Re: LOOKS – you are absolutely a dumb person.
Re: BO – don't deal with the non problem, then, you dumb slob.
Re: felke – poor gay m.f. trying to hide it and blaming his rage on s.b. his whole family taunts her and she has to take it. poor him. karma is a bitch.
She tries soooo
Hard to be sexy.
Nigga pleeeeeze
