"News"

Ok at the very beginning of the whole Jon and Kate Plus Eight controversy I really actually did feel sorry for Jon. I have watched the show from the very beginning and I have always loved it, but just like everyone on this earth, I did notice how mean Kate was to him. So for the past couple of months I have felt sorry for him and honestly did not blame him for wanting out.

This weekend while I was at my parents house my sister and I were on the Internet and we noticed a picture of Jon and his new girlfriend holding hands on their vacation in France! What the heck?! It has only been about three weeks since Kate filed for divorce!!! It just doesn't seem right to me. Jared always gives me grief because I always get so into celebrity drama and I act like I know these people when I talk about them but this situation really does bother me! Jon knows that everything he does is going to be in magazines or on tv, does he not have any consideration for his ex-wife of barely three weeks and EIGHT children? In a way it is kind of like he is making a fool of Kate because she is still wearing her wedding ring.

I know, I know, I don't know the whole story or even if any of this is real but the whole situation still just bothers me...A LOT! I think its wrong of Jon and Kate to continue to do the show. I think its really wrong for TLC to continue airing the show and paying these people millions of dollars when the whole thing is nothing more than a crock! I know divorce is a reality to millions of people all over the world, I just don't think it should be broad casted on national television when their are little children involved that get no say in the matter! Its sad to say because I loved the show but I don't know how I or how anyone can watch the show when it comes back on in August.

On to another topic that's all over the "news." Michael Jackson. Seriously people. Let him Rest in Peace, let his family grieve, be considerate of his children! I think its disturbing that some magazines thinks its ok to put a picture of him on his death bed on the cover!!! Yes, he was a huge celebrity, some might say an Icon, and his death was a tragedy. But he was a real person that has a family and children. Is it really necessary to see his body in a body bag taken out of the morgue on a gurney? Do we really need to see all of the scars or rotted skin on his body?! If we (and when I say we, I mean people that don't even know the guy) find this stuff disturbing how do you think his kids and family feel? You cant even turn on the tv or go to the store without seeing some disturbing image of him. So here is my message to all those magazines, news stations, and Internet sites: "Let him rest in peace and back off! Enough is enough!"

I guess that's my rant for today! Feels nice to get that off my chest! Hope everyone is having a great day! Its almost the weekend!!!:)
