Do you know what Derriere means? When I came upon the movie Undercover Brother's Trivia section on IMDB, I did not. Denise Richards claims her derriere was digitally inflated in promos of the movie.
A search on the free dictionary revealed that it meant buttocks. Makes me wonder why she had to use such fancy words, could have said "My ass is much smaller than what they have shown!" Exploring around that page on the free dictionary, there is a block called 'References in classic literature' having this french quotation from a Ruyard Kipling book called Captain Courageous which goes 'Par derriere chez ma tante, Il y a un bois joli, Et le rossignol y chante Et le jour et la nuit.'

Ruyard Kipling must have had one large aunt allright :D Posted by Lucidly Awake at 2:14 AM 7 comments I just happened to look at the stats of the blog and was quite surprised to find more than a handful of visitors.
