OMG!

Say you’re walking through the checkout lane at your local grocer, and you glance at the twenty or so magazines and their glossy, bright covers sitting dauntingly next to the register, pleading with you to pick it up…. Silently willing you to spend $5.00 on crap you could look up online for free. Today, I had one of those experiences…. On the cover on one of those weekly magazines, splashed across "Kristen Stewart Pregnant with Robert Pattinson’s Baby?!?" "Rob Dumps Kristen!!!" Then, the media frenzy continues. A friend texts me, "OMG! Kristen Stewart is pregnant!!!" Then, I log onto face book and there is a video of a parody of the whole situation by a fantastic young man, Kaleb something or other. I find the media hysteria over the private lives of stars completely ridiculous. While I find Robert Pattinson quite dashing, and if he wants to be involved in gossip worthy behavior with me, dude HIT ME UP. But, if you turn the situation around and stuck one of these editors or writers into these situations, they would not be happy. Would You? The whole loss of privacy just because you were in a film that made about 70.55 million dollars, or sang a song, you are now a product, a commodity of the public. Left to be taunted and judged by people who sit in front of the T.V. watching E! Daily 10. Didn’t these fools listen when their mothers said that if you don’t have anything nice to say, then don’t say it all. I think this applies to all people, not just those you pick and choose. Another funny little tidbit I learned from this magazine, Lindsay Lohan is BESIDE herself, the girls lost it.. Because Russell Brand (you know, the d-bag that hosted the MTV Awards a bit back and in the movie Forgetting Sarah Marshall) turned her down. Lilo, as the mag has deemed her, has "lost it with sex addict Russell Brand turning her down." Have you looked at Russell Brand? Now look at "Lilo". Magazines should think about things when they put these fake couples together. Now, if these magazines were giving me important information like, Channing Tatum seeking 20 year old girl with my characterstics and habits, then hell yes. I'd buy that. But, when it's merely crap I don't want to know, and don't even want to think about, stick it in the magazine aisle, so I can spend that last $5 on some gum or chapstick.
