Why Are We Supportive?

I suppose I have just about up to my forehead and wonder why are we supporting celebrities' wayward ways and lifestyle? Are they any greater being just because they have a tag on their reputation? I just cannot fathom how some can idolize them and support their music, performance or movies. Our support is simply supporting their drug abuse habits, promiscuity, and many other atrocious acts. I mean could you believe today's headlines "Winona Ryder fell ill on plane to London after 'overdosing on tranquilliser tablets' " She was taken to Hillingdon hospital, in West London, soon after arriving in England just after noon. The waif-like American, who made her name in Edward Scissorhands starring Johnny Depp with whom she also had a relationship, is known to hate flying. (I have my doubts!!) And she is thought to have collapsed twice on Flight 282 after taking too many Xantax pills, which are used to combat anxiety. Although her publicist refused to confirm the nature of the star's illness last night, she said her client was discharged an hour later 'in good health'. Mara Buxbaum said: 'She did fall ill on a plane and as a precautionary measure they took her to hospital. 'She was there for an hour. She's in good health. There's no drama.' Winona later took another BA flight to another European city. A spokesman for British Airways said: 'The captain of BA282, which was travelling from LA to Heathrow, requested a priority landing as a female passenger required medical attention.' Members of the crew looked after the star, while BA ground staff accompanied her to hospital, he added. Just look at the aftermath as reported. No sense of appreciation for her own life and others who had helped her along the way. I am sure that I will not even spend a cent on any of their distributions!! If celebrity life is too much for you (All the Winona s, Amy Winehouse s, and etc.) then get a life somewhere, we certainly do not need your lifestyle as a statement and example for the young and future generations.

The best way to make a fire bigger is to add fuel to it. If you dislike so much these celebrities then the best thing to do is what I do, just live your life and ignore them. I may read about them but I never lose a moment because of them. Papers write about them, tv and radio and even the Internet are all agog about them because people take notice. Ignore them and they will fade away, just like fairies. Cheers!!
