Hip to be Square?

OK I have finally reached Sensory Overload and need to ask if somebody -- anybody -- out there can tell me: what's the deal with Justin Bieber?

Hardly a day goes by that the person is not in the media.
Is he particularly talented? he looks about 12.

Is there something especially important about him? I don't get it.
As young people go, does he describe What's Hot in a way that I'm too old to understand?!

I am prepared to see him in the top headlines of the Denver Post tomorrow, as I often do.

I think just now that he may be in jail (who cares?!) and had drugs in his system (duh) when they checked him recently. What I don't get is why these are the most newsworthy events of the day.

Because Michael Jackson died, and another singer had to take his place as the object of obsession for people that really need to go find a life.

Thank you!!!

Unfortunately, I foresee nothing but more headlines ahead. Didn't even make it to the morning press, the New News hit tonite:

"An imprisoned man Friday admitted to his role in a plan to strangle and castrate two Vermont men, a gruesome precursor in an ultimate plot to kidnap and murder beleaguered pop singer Justin Bieber."

We should be so lucky. :LMAO:

perhaps we should agree to Canada's pipeline, if Canada agrees to take Bieber back and keep him there.

He's just the latest.....SOME of the other earlier ones are Brittany Spears,Paris Hilton,Lindsey
Lohan,oh and I almost forgot Anjelina Jolie when she was dating Billy Bob (remember the vials
of blood necklace?)......it's just the nature of the show business gendre......generate "buzz" so
you can generate PR. JMO

Because everyone loves to see destruction of any kind. Especially self destruction.

There are two of them.

:Thud:

I can see the fraying ends of the very last strand of my rope.

You couldn't care less about some celebrity's self-destruction? You wish the news would get on to something else that really matters?

Good news! that puts you a step above the average population that's satisfied with watching reality shows.
