I'm sick of 'hollywood' - not the movies that come out of there (well, some of them are pretty dumb too), but the fascination the media (and and society) have with 'superstars'. To be honest I followed gossip about Brad & Jen's breakup until the magazine covers were completely opposing, and gradually found myself feeling more and more distaste about the speculation on people's lives that are so removed from our own.

In today's herald there was a line from an article about Brangelina's baby (that's Brad Pitt and Angelina Jolie combined for you folks who really are out of the loop)... "Not since Jesus has a baby been so eagerly anticipated," said the magazine, which quoted a gossip insider as speculating the child "could be the most beautiful baby in the world."

What a messed up world we live in where 'superstars' are who society is intrigued by rather than people of good character who are making a significant difference in the world.

I feel for the child born into that -there's high expectation already for how they will look, act, where they will go with Mum and/or Dad, where they will go to school etc. etc. What a way to start your life aye?
