Off to the beginning of a New Year, and its already the same crap over and over and over again on TV, and online. Ever get sick of Best and Worst... dressed, music, scandals etc.
OMG everyone, we get to hear all about Tiger Woods being a man whore again, its really strange to think how many people were surprised by that. Really?..? Think about it... famous man travels for golf constantly.... doesn't see wife on regular basis... as random women throwing themselves at him on a daily basis.... yet the world is surprised when he sleeps with them. IT WASN'T SURPRISING!
Selena Gomez is the best dressed celebrity of 2009 according to Teen Vogue... Congratulations Miss Gomez for having a stylist that can dress you according to what 5 million teen girls will find the most amazing outfits in the world because that is what they are told.
Michael Jackson wins the category of most surprising death of 2009. Yes Mr. Jackson no matter how many little boys you have been accused of molesting, the absurd amount of plastic surgery you have had, the crazy and wild drugs you have been known of using and abusing in the past, the fact that you have hung your own child over a balcony. You will be known as a man that died and it was a SURPRISE??? You have got to be kidding me.
I find it personally pathetic that more people in the world will know of these and other random useless information that made 2009 such a year.
What about the real world??
