Each morning, when I sign onto my computer, Yahoo Messenger pops up, and then a box labeled Yahoo News. And 99 times out of a 100 this box is full of gossip news, not real news, and invariably what it's doing is dissing some celebrity's clothing choice. And invariably, that celebrity is a woman.
Who cares? What's frightening is that people must care. They must actually look at a photo of Katie Holmes wearing baggy clothing - perhaps she'd just wanted to go out and walk her dog at 6 in the morning and didn't feel like getting all dolled up to do it? (And is Katie Holmes really a celebrity? SHe's married to Tom Cruise. That's the extent of her accomplisments, as far as I know. No disrespect to her, but if she weren't married to him, she could wear what she pleased and no one would care.)
This constant - never, ever ending media scrutiny is probaby why so many actresses are anorexic.
It's a catch-22. They like the life that so much money brings their way - and no normal person wouldn't like that life, but to obtain that money they have to place their bodies on display 24-7.
