Paris Hilton And Pop Culture Tarts

Paris Hilton spent 3.8 million dollars on a dress to attend the Oscars after making only $9000 the opening weekend for her latest piece of crap movie. Think about that number for a minute. $3, 800, 000. For a DRESS! That she's only going to wear ONCE! As it turns out, she got snubbed and didn't even get to wear it once, but that number is still in my head. She could have eradicated the poverty levels in a small country with the money she spent on that dress!

Hey, I'm all for looking nice when going out, but that's just staggering. The level of vanity that goes into spending that much on a dress that could have been used on so many other things is beyond all comprehension. Stupid, really stupid...

Britney Spears and Who Cares?

ok, so Britney has gone insane. Now let's move on, shall we? It should be clear that MOST superstar level celebrities have at least some percentage of insanity in them. If not, then we create it eventually. They are put on a pedestal by us and admired for everything they do, including daily trivial things that we seem to enjoy watching as the paparazzi records their every move. We need to get over them and they need to get over themselves.

The live a life quite removed for the average person, so it's no wonder their perspective on reality is a bit warped. They can't even go out to get groceries without being followed. Think about that yourself. How would you feel if you could not even go out for milk without being hounded by groups of people who most sane people would see as stalkers hiding in the bushes.

Think about that the next time you watch TMZ or read People magazine.
