Let’s see. A woman has sex with a guy/guys and a child is produced from the sex act. She dies from G_d only knows what and they fight over her corpse like it is a holy relict. Several men (both single and married) come forward and claim responsibility for fathering the child.
Hmmm, 45 years ago this would have been quietly dealt with because of the shame brought on those who participated in this sleazy episode. What next? Perhaps the sex videos of the child being conceived being posted on the internet? Is there no shame?
My money is on Lohan to be the next Dead Pool winner. Whatever else Paris Hilton is, she seems to be able to handle her intoxicants, and the last word I’d use to describe her is depressed.
On the positive side, the public eventually reaches a breaking point, loses interest and the next time you hear about these unfortunate souls is either when they die or get made fun of years later on one of those VH1 look back shows.
Most irritating though is that our entertainment industry (movie, television, music, sports) always has another one in the pipe, so they never go away.
The less I partake in American pop culture, the better I feel.
I think Britney has a new lease on life, for the moment. Being in rehab (at least as of an hour ago) often extends the lifetime of a self-destructive type for several months.
It’s after she falls off the wagon again (and she will) that the clock starts ticking again.
