Yes I’m complaining about the entertainment business. What are you trying to feed the public? Stop insulting our intelligence with no talent folks. Here we are Kim K now getting a divorce. She has no talent just pretty looks, which will take you how far darling. First of all these “K” girls rode in on their Fathers coat tails for fame. There Dad was not even the primary in the OJ case, Johnnny Cochran was.
Seriously how far do you have to gap your legs to become famous in Gollywood. Also I’m sick and tired of all the Reality Shows. Especially all the “Housewifes of ???” shows. Really? Why are you even married or better yet friends not equal to yourself. Trust me hear when I tell you this, it is not all reality base, a lot of the interaction we see is stage, to keep the viewers tuned in.
I now truly understand why Actors/Actress that have paid dues in the industry to perfect there craft, get mad when – so called rappers, fly by nights, no talents come along and make millions off talentless, folks that should have kept there days jobs. Everybody can not act, just like everybody can not sing.
Years ago I told my youngest daughter that Janet Jackson can not sing, her voice is engineer with the mike. Yet she has a smokey sexy speaking voice. Man, my daughter was psst with me. I told her when you see an artist come on stage with a mike, with no backup band, singers, or engineered panel board, that is a true talented individual. Not many young folks can sing on a raw mike and sound very good.
I also told her Beyonce can not act, stick to singing her day job, lol lol. At least she agreed with me on that illustration. Folks work hard in a very competative industry, to reach a goal of Oscar, Grammy, Tony or Emmy awards. And then again some folks never get the credit they deserve.
Movie industry – to you stop making movies that insult our intelligence, this is 2011, we have grown up since the 70′s and 80′s. Some movies are for children and I find them more enjoying then the adult dramas, or comedies, they actually make sense.
