This Act is Getting Old
Can someone please tell Kanye West that the world isn’t there to sing his praises 24/7?
Entertainment Weekly gave him a less than perfect review for his Glow in the Dark tour and he, not so surprisingly, did what any fifteen year-old girl would have done. Wrote an angry blog.
“Yo, anybody that’s not a fan; don’t come to my show … Ya’ll rated my album s**tty and now ya’ll come to the show and give it a B+. What’s a B+ mean? I’m an extremist. It’s either pass or fail! A+ or F-! You know what, f**k you and the whole f**king staff!!! Never come 2 one of my shows ever again, you’re not invited and if you see me…BOW!!”
I’m really sick of these whiney temper tantrums. If you can’t handle the criticism, don’t be an entertainer!
And I thought law school was the only place where people threw conniptions over a B+.
Like a Drug
Everytime I write about Britney Spears, I swear it’s gonna be the last. I’m trying really, really hard guys, I swear. It’s a nasty little habit. I’m good for a few days and then she rears her ugly head. And then I say no. I restrain myself. That lasts about twenty-four hours. And then I cave in.
I swear Britney Spears going into court to say she is a good mother is about as much of a scene as Michael Jackson going in trying to prove he isn’t a little kid toucher. Minus the pajamas. And replace the “Thriller” fans with crazy paparazzi. And instead of the masses praying for innocence for MJ, they are hoping to see Britney fail.
Well, the paparazzi watched Britney’s every move yesterday. From her leaving her house late, showing up to the court parking lot, trying to get out of her SUV, mumbling unintelligently about being scared, getting back in the car, and then going to places people usually go when they are trying to regain custody of their children when a court hearing is going on. Like the church the Reagans were married in. Or to your favorite restaurant in a shopping mall. And then you do it all in your old wedding dress!
Can someone please list the top ten ways someone can look like an ass during a custody hearing even when the other parent showed up to court with a mohawk? I think Britney is working on a top twenty list and we need to narrow it down.
The whole thing leaves me torn in the middle. I honestly do feel sympathy for a woman who can’t even go into a church and pray without cameramen following her. However, you’re asking for it when you go in with some rando paparazzo you picked out to be your new pet (who is married, shady looking, and did I mention a paparazzo?) and in your old wedding dress. You don’t want to be hounded by swarms when it’s time to go to court? You get there at the ass crack of dawn woman. It’s not a sale at Wet Seal where you can just leisurely walk in, pick up some new polyester pieces, and call it a day.
Sympathy? Go to Rosie O’Donnell who just wrote a blog comparing Britney Spears to Princess Diana. My take on that comparison: Likeness – fame, public divorce, dating Muslim men. Nonlikeness – one of them acted like a lady, one of them did charitable work during her time, one managed her problems in private, and one did not go around showing off her vagina to strangers on the street.
Britney Spears is doomed. No one can save her from herself and she continues to surround herself with total strangers and cameramen. While it may appear we all want her to fail, we all would welcome her back with arms wide open if she got her act together. But she won’t. Ok magazine is predicting her to convert to Islam and try to get pregnant with her new boytoy. Other sources say she is contemplating suicide. Dr. Phil wants to put his two cents in. I’ve already put in my dollar’s worth. Here’s seeing how long I can last before writing again about this tragedy.
And in case you were wondering, Britney lost all visitation rights yesterday. Shocking.
In Case You Aren’t Hungover This Sunday Morning
Go ahead and read Roseanne’s blog. It’s a nightmare and a half about her random musings about class, race, and gender.
“These are the facts: race doesnt matter and neither does gender, neither does anybody’s beliefs, size or age…there are two kinds of people in the world: THE HAVES AND THE HAVE NOTS!!!”
I don’t know how Roseanne has been making money recently, but I’m sure she gets plenty of it from her TV show’s syndication. If Roseanne wants to get rid of class, maybe she should donate all her money until she has a nice meager income and learns to live simply. If she wants to go ahead and give money to help others, she can, but she shouldn’t be telling people that it’s ok to force other people to pay for her goal through taxes. And, last I checked, I don’t think I’ve ever heard anything about Roseanne helping people.
Just to make sure I’m not missing out on any of her philanthropic ways, I did a little research. By research, I mean google search of the phrase “Roseanne donation”. What was the only result I got referring to Roseanne? I got nothing except this little gem of international affairs:
“Roseanne Barr says an end to Israel’s occupation of the West Bank and Gaza is the key to a just and lasting peace.”
Ok, I’m gonna take the light approach to the Israel debate. We’re just gonna put the whole topic aside about whether or not its worth the American money, time, energy etc etc. Let’s focus on Roseanne’s comment. “Just and lasting peace” will come about by ending Israel’s occupation? What kind of dream world is she living in and how can I get a ticket?
yo no comprendo
It’s always a special treat when celebrities or pseudo-celebs or has-been-celebs blog. Usually full of stream of consciousness, awful typos, and rants about nonsense, these blogs are like a lil piece of christmas year round. Whether its Nick Hogan’s blog bragging about how he just got sponsored for car racing and then adding a “ps – pray for my friend that i put into a coma due to the car accident i had in the summer” or Rosie O’Donnel who uses words like “4get” as if she were a 12 yr old girl, these things are delightful views into quaky publicity-driven minds.
And for my favorite of the week, let’s examine Roseanne’s blog on Ellen DeGeneres’ refusal to take part in the Writer’s Guild of America strike:
“hey ellen, you’re a writer, you should strike.. everyone has a contract not just you, that’s the point hun! Support every pro union thing in this country while we still can! This bush shit makes me long for the good old days of the mafia!!! IMPEACH TO PREVENT FURTHER RIPPING OFF OF YOUR MONEY!!!!!”
Last I checked, unions raise wages and thereby raise costs and thereby make people not in unions pay more money. Tell me if I’m wrong.
If someone could tell me the connection between why Ellen shoud strike and loving the mafia and pro-union and impeaching Bush, please let me know.
And next time Roseanne wants to comment on America, let’s all remember the way she almost killed patriotism with this:
