Ok, I am officially sick to my stomach.
Ashlee Simpson was nominated for a Billboard music award. Unfortunately, this is not what I am nauseated about. Billboard's awards are based purely on sales, and if the musical tastes of America are what I know them to be, this makes perfect sense.
What makes my tummy upset is that she was upset about not being nominated for a Grammy. maybe the Grammys have a bit more integrity than originally thought. In the latest installment of the Ashlee Simpson show, it shows her distraught about not getting nominated, with sad music playing in the background, as if was the most devastating thing that could have happened to her. It then immediately cuts to her getting ready for the Billboard show, and her mom spouts off the gem, "This is about record sales, not about impressing some committee".
Ugh. If my wife ever says something that stupid, I will smack her. You went from five seconds ago feeling like your life was over for not being nominated to justifying it with the stupidest comment I have ever heard.
Now the news comes out that Lindsey Lohan was text messaging Paris Hilton that Jessica Simpson was doing coke in the bathroom at a nightclub. Hello?? If you have half a brain, you are pretty damn sure that Paris and Lindsay probably have done a few lines themselves. These people just have no clue, do they? I have lived the life of a minor league celebrity (very minor league, mind you) and have seen some drug stuff that would probably blow your mind. We are talking about the biggest professional celebrities there are in Paris and Lindsay. Is there really any doubt that there is some pretty serious drug use going on there?
Anyway, I digress. Spring training is in full swing. Maybe I will finally have something to take me away from all of that hockey I haven't been watching. Hmmm...maybe that is why I have time to watch the Ashlee Simpson show........... ¶ 9:52 PM
