Some actors and singers deserve fame because they are truly talented and gifted; others are just infamous because of scandal and well planned marketing and publicity; we as Americans need to recognize the difference and be more discriminating in where we spend our hard earned money and our time.
Last night I was reading my friend Heather's blog and she was ranting about all the media attention given to that slime-ball OJ, and I just have to say that I totally agree. Why are the American people so obsessed with celebrities? Furthermore, why do we even make some people celebrities? For instance, that twit Brittney Spears. Now, I don't follow the lives of these people, but you cannot turn on the TV and flip through the channels without hearing about them. I was channel surfing and stopped to fuss at one of my children a couple weeks ago and there was Brittney parking her little sports car and bumping the car beside her. She jumped out and ran to inspect her precious machine and muttered her concern that it not be dented or scratched, but she never even afforded the other car so much as a glance, much less a note. That just really ticked me off, how self-centered can you get. I really feel sorry for her children; I pray that they survive to adulthood and not be scarred for life.
Someone also needs to give Miss Britney a lesson on modesty. Have you seen that clip from the VMA awards? She is scantily clad, sporting a major post-baby body. There is no shame in having a little jiggle around the middle after having a baby, but why wear something that so obviously shows it when you could wear something that actually makes you look sexy? I guess you just can't buy class or good taste.
