The title of this blog is the gut reaction and the knee jerk feeling I get when I listen to religious high roller bible thumpers bash other people.
Because whether or not you "believe" in sin or want to specifically call it that, we're all sinners. We all fall from grace. None of us are perfect and even when we're good, solid, salt-of-the-earth people..... there's still fault there. There's still imperfections. There's still sin.
So, David Letterman had an affair.
As a wife it angers me. As a human I shrug it off and assume he had his reasons. Be they desire, lust, the want to flaunt his "power" as a celebrity over people, his need for variety, his wife wasn't givin' it up at home, or perhaps she cut off the love supply for her own reasons, or he's just flat out a seething pig..... who the hell cares?
Why do we stop in shock when someone who's famous screws up in a way that every day people do all the time?
I'm not talking about the CRAZY shit like using drugs that could choke a horse, or it being FRONT PAGE NEWS when a celebrity's dog dies......
It's disturbing to me what we expect from other people. It BOTHERS me when people cite a celebrity as a "hero" only for their acting ability, or their ability to toss a ball. I have people who have inspired me as a performer.
I absolutely LOVE how Christopher Titus takes things that are NOT FUNNY.... and makes them funny. A dad who's an alcoholic and a suicidal mother? into a joke? Genius, man! But he's not my HERO. I don't look to him in awe, with eyes upward, ready to worship him.
Letterman acting like a typical man is not news to me because, um, hello? He's a man. Just a guy who screwed up. Ah, but because he enters our home five nights a week we.... what... expect him to be "above" it? NOT defending the Right To Cheat here. I just can't figure out why people are freaking out about it.
Speaking strictly from a woman's stand point, I'd say a man who looks like Letterman would HAVE TO be famous to merit a mistress. Who would want him otherwise? ha ha ha.... sorry. That was mean. But damn.... all that money and he can't get some braces for those teeth??
I digress.....
Let's say, for argument's sake, I become famous. Household name kind of deal.
The only press I'd worry about are people in my PAST speaking up to make a buck letting the world know what we did 15 + years ago..... .... but what haven't I already confessed in my blog anyhow?
Someone attempting to extort money from Letterman because he had a momentary lapse of reason.... or SEVERAL, what ever the case is, is sickening. The person attempting to bleed money from him..... I wonder how clean their life is?
Just.... pondering.....
