How can one's life
become so crazy??
My father always said that fame and fortune was a mixed blessing and he was right.
I don't usually blog about things of this nature, but I'm getting so tired of hearing about these two on every TV channel, even Dr. Phil!, magazines at the check out in the grocery store and on and on and on, the craziness of Britney Spears and Anna Nicole. No wonder these poor woman have succumbed to such horrid outcomes and for one of them, the end. They are scrutinized beyond belief. There isn't one piece of their lives that isn't commented on, written about, photographed. It's no wonder they "lose" it, become depressed, turn to drugs and alcohol and just plain foolishness.
I've always wondered why they just don't get away from it all. They have more than enough money, why don't they just fly away somewhere peaceful and live a "normal" life for a while. I guess they can't. They want that fame and notoriety, they want everyone to know who they are, what they eat for breakfast and who they go to bed with at night etc etc. And people want to know this stuff, that's what I don't get!
And what saddens me even more is the future of their poor children. They too will and do, get sucked into their madness and on goes the never ending drama, stranger and sadder than some of the greatest romance novels ever written or movies ever directed.
I just wish they would go away...whatever happened to the stars of the past who had some class and character and kept their problems to themselves?
I guess it just goes to show how shallow our society has become.
There, I've said my peace, may they somehow find peace...
