Another whos making a fortune off of this is the prostitute played by kate hudson. Can you sing . Sweets, i can do things to you that are illegal in every civilized nation.

His durables its gods will she gets to sing on an afghan tv show. She has the gift. She has the magic. She is the best i ever heard.

I see their point, but when i saw rock the kasbah i was ready to laugh, and you know, i did. So your recommendation is that we should all go see a depressing movie first, then go see this and well like it. If you believed go to this video. I had a great time.
