Sometimes the News Is So Outrageous, it Makes Me Laugh!

Here I was taking a small break from writing, when Jack Schick sends an email to write another "makes me laugh" article. Now, this is only 24 hours to get 50 points, and I haven't cleaned a thing today. The list of things 'that make me laugh" are so long, that we could do this for a year. This is one making news now, so here goes:
There is something, "Don't you know, that makes me Laugh", and that is celebrity infidelity stories caused by the spotlight crowd themselves. Take Demi Moore and Ashton Kutcher, for instance, and the Twitter hullabaloo, if that's not free publicity I don't know what is. There are millions at stake, and Demi may get another movie out of this, for sympathies sake. Maybe it's real, but maybe it's not, either way; how can they lose? I'm exluding events like "Sandra Bullock's" break up, which was a real heartbreaker, that sideswiped her completely. I'm sure the isolation of being famous causes many mistakes.
Last year, there was a huge news story on Ashton Kutcher's affair with another woman. Then there was the forgiveness, and all was well with the marriage. Now, there is the news article claiming Demi Moore quit following Ashton Kutcher on Twitter. Then another person claimed he was only at the bottom of her follow list. I'm laughing out loud, because all this does is give him more publicity, to go with his new job. Demi gets sympathy, and is back in the news, and he gets more paparazzi following him. Who benefits? The couple.
Charlie Sheen lost his place on "Two and a Half Men" to Ashton Kutcher, with the "Winning" series of nonsense, brought on by "pride, and arrogance". And it looks like Ashton Kutcher's "pride and arrogance" will run a close second, if he doesn't keep his pants zipped up. How long will he last, before he has his own "winning" out of control, female groupies? Sheen was prime for this, because we only get so many chances, before we get zapped by our own ignorance.
So in the long run, we may as well laugh, for celebrities will always have fidelity issues. Pride doesn't take a holiday, and we all usually end up 'thinking more of ourselves, than we ought", when famous gets in the way. Those who reach stardom, without paying the cost along the way, will no doubt blossom and bloom, then quickly fade away. Money is not a substitute for character.

Celebrities live in a kind of zone of unreality, don't they? I've always liked Ashton Kucher, just because I think he's quite a hunk now, but I didn't know anything about his character off screen. I did see that he's replaced Charlie Sheen, though and I wondered how that's going to pan out.Please log in to respond to this comment.
