It seems that some time ago the world decided to slag off the famous. Don't allow them to bask in their glory, mock them and chase them. So sad.
Britney Spears visits Oz and the government (no less) want to know if she'll be lip synching. Really. I'm sure the average show goer wanted to see HER, see her dance and if she sounds better on disc than in person well, go for it.
A photo of Paris Hilton on a billboard with VACANT across it, I know, I also chuckled but it's not on.
The British PM is in hot water because he sent a shabby letter of condolence to the mother of a soldier killed in combat. Be grateful there was a letter, I wonder how many SA parents have received letters of condolence from our PM?
A few years back I became noticed. I would be out shopping and shop assistants and customers would look at me, smile or blush and whisper to one another. It turned out I look like some (poor, unfortunate) actress and so I sort of made their day by saying hello. I've never found out who the poor woman is but I still get the occasional stare so maybe they're showing re-runs of "my" show.
That's the fun side but one day I was standing at the veggie counter in WW when a man came up to me
"You're not her are you?" "No" I replied, "sorry".
"I've been watching you for five years" (Aaagh!!) "and now I see it isn't you"
So, my very own stalker. I can laugh about it but imagine having a life filled with stalkers and people who are mean about you or poke fun at you.
What a world.

I really agree with you about this. I heard about this Britney thing on the radio yesterday - the woman dances full on for her whole show, does all sorts of entertaining things - surely it's about the whole performance? I would rather watch a great entertaining show and know that the singing will still sound good, rather than breathless and raspy which anyone would sound like if they were dancing for two hours straight while singing. I am not a huge Britney fan, but I do wish they would leave the poor girl alone now (and all the rest of them).
I am now DYING TO KNOW who this famous person is people think you are. It's too funny..
Love, Ronnie xx
