Is it just me, or do you find Hollywood more and more obsessed with these out of control twenty-somethings, who move in and out of rehab? I'm speaking of Britney, Lindsay, Paris, and Nicole, and their ilk. What is it about these vacuous airheads that we are supposed to be interested in? OK, so when at their best, (especially in Britney and Lindsay's cases) these young women CAN exhibit some talent, but SO WHAT! I think other young actresses such as Mandy Moore, Rachel McAdams and Reese Witherspoon are just as or more talented, and you don't find those girls all coked-up and headed yet again, for rehab.
We, as parents, should talk to our teenagers and younger, about how these rehab girls are NOT role models, and how they are ones to point to when you want to see how messed up you can become when you are too young to handle the mega-millions along with the mega-spotlight. We all seem to think that lots of money will make us happy, but does anyone really think that Britney,Lindsay , or Paris are happy?
Just my 2 cents.
