Thursday Thoughts - Trashy TV and Video Girls

Its likely this week, you either watched Jersey Shore or Bad Girls Club this week, or someone you know was watching it and was enjoying witnessing the 'everyday happenings' of either show. Jersey Shore or Bad Girls Club,  iswhere we see recklessness on another level and yet we know and love it, the Hills wasn't trashy, but it was us thrown in another life some of us would love to live.

If that wasn't you, you may have seen  a nice pic of a model/fashion icon/ ex video girl on holiday in the Bahamas, or wiping their nose, being snapped by the Paparazzi.


Famous ex-girlfriends of rappers, Kim K and Amber Rose have a truckload of followers and fans on Twitter and Facebook respectively. There's nothing wrong with that, but we start getting tight and scratching our heads, when we hear news of Rose stunting in a Lamborghini.


Amber Rose, who I do not hate and wouldn't mind if she got my BB pin, does seem to have a penchant for rappers, whether it be Wiz, 'Ye or Fab. Yes, the girl is stunning, yes the girl is bald, but this was not enough for her to became famous on her own right, that's where a the famous Chi-Town MC/producer comes in. Like ultimately, that's the reason for the fame and the ever increasing amount of 'fans'.

When Sheryl Gascoigne went on I'm A Celebrity...., the reason being she was one married to ex-footballer, Paul Gascoigne. So you divorce the guy, that was a lousy and violent husband to you, but keep his surname for celebrity purposes? Alex Reid, will probably be in the limelight for a long while now, even after his failed marriage with Jordan is finalised. Works both ways, I fully know this.

I am not saying we should all follow Princeton Professor Cornell West on Twitter, but don't get upset when all these Tweets and YouTube searches about these said characters, earns them multi-millions in revenue from farcical reality shows, 'self-penned' books, and sponsorship deals. And please for me whatever you do, don't call them great businesswomen or men for that matter, any day now, one of the WSHH pre-op sex change video hoes will make it. They have a team which tells them to sign the biggest and most lucrative, stars don't spend hours pondering over deals, aligning themselves with brands, they have well paid experts to do that.

Forget the outfits, you understand what I'm getting at.

So the next time, you see a Snooki high up on the Forbes money list, or Kim K with her own chain of hotels, acknowledge they have gone far, but they were not the brains (no pun intended) of the operation.
