MTV Creates Celebri-Monsters

Having only watched short snippets of MTV for the last ten years or so, they seem to have completely forgotten the Music part of their name and are more concerned with "reality" shows like The Hills.

The moments I've watched The Hills have been few and far between since it seems incredibly, incredibly shallow and vapid and panders to attractive people with contrived "issues".

And it gives rise to utterly useless egoists like Spencer Pratt. Seriously, go read some of his Tweets, this dumbshit thinks he's the second coming of Jim Jones talking about "his following". His background image on this Twitter page is telling, he's got his hair all nicely coifed, his hands lightly clasped and the tiling has turned his fake wife with fake boobs, fake hair and fake smile, Heidi, into just an arm off the side of his tweets. Unintentionally telling.

And, oh yeah, he's got 180K+ followers. Which is kind of crazy when you stop and think about it.

There are plenty of other jackasses who have come to fame via MTV's watchers. The channel seems to focus on totally self-absorbed nimrods as long as they look good.

It'd be nice if MTV went back to, you know, playing music videos.

Jeebus, All This Hubbub Over a Pampered Bimbo's 3 Week Jail Stay?

I call shenanigans, nobody really cares all that much that a spoiled idiot like Paris Hilton got out of prison today. This has to be her PR team (which is galling to think about in and of itself) spinning the news cycles to revolve around their "star". The news is making it out like she was in prison forever, she's had longer phonecalls. Enough.

Seriously, in the Yahoo Most Viewed photos, 39 of 40 photos are of this twit and her "march to freedom".

One photo is of Curtis Allgier, a real criminal who escaped the other day while on a medical trip, murdered a police officer and was then recaptured. He also happens to have tattoos all over his face and body. He also happens to be a real news story, not some trumped up trollop with her head still very firmly planted between her own ass cheeks and exclaiming that her farts smell like daisies.

And yes, I'm well aware of the irony of kvetching about media coverage for a fool like Paris Hilton and then writing a blog post about it and helping to feed her ego/star power/whatever.

Anyway, I'll wrap this up with a wager for anyone willing to take the over. I will wager a week of posts about kitty cats and furry niceness that Paris Hilton will be arrested again within the year. And I hope she gets her stupid ass sent away for a long time this around.

Any takers? Post a comment with what you'll put on the line when I win the bet.

Siding With Rosie

Rosie, Elisabeth Wage Angry War of Words on what is probably one of the worst shows ever in the history of television. I didn't watch this episode and haven't ever watched more than ten seconds of it before.

But I've seen enough to know that Elizabeth Hasselbeck is an absolute fucking moron Republican parrot. She is embarrassingly stupid. And I actually feel pity for Matt Hasselbeck to have to put up with her but he's probably a Republican ass-sucker too so they're just thrilled as they drive around in their Hummer.

I'm no fan of Rosie's but I am definitely an anti-fan of Hasselbeck's. The words she utters are so wrong I just want to smack her in the face.

Anyway, this was this evening's tawdry "celeb" (in quotes because this barely qualifies as celeb news, one is a has been and the other is a never was) news.
