This is the tale of two daughters -- each born of rocker passion and into money.

In the same week, one daughter accused her dead father of having sex with her for a decade while the other found her own footing and became a star in her own standing.

There is a certain reprehensibleness in Mackenzie Phillips' charges of sexual molestation long after the death of her father.  The dead have no defense against a lie and the mouldering cannot make an exception against an accusation -- so why bother digging up the spirit of the dead only to kill the memory a second time in public?

Kelly Osbourne -- known only for her potty mouth and horrible attitude of entitlement -- became a real human being this week on Dancing with the Stars as she graced her way into our American consciousness with a style and beauty we didn't know she had.

Kelly Osbourne can dance -- and we're quite certain she also has some deep, dark, secrets fed during her term of growing up -- and yet we hope Kelly keeps dancing forward into the light instead of looking back to the grave for exoneration and for confirmation of a lonesome infidelity in the living.
