Have a night class tonight and I know i will be sleepy when i get back so im updating early :)
514pm- okay so we have all seen the media surrounding Lilo the pass few years- in and out of rehab and courtrooms but over the weekend she hosted Saturday Night Live and didn't do a bad job and even if she did at least people are talking something thats good for her right? I personally believed that she was a lost cause, another hollywood actress who partied her pants off and would never change. But looking at how seriously she is taking her probation and how she is getting the praise for the judge i believe that LiLo is getting back on track and is going to make a giant comeback in the year 2012. There are those who still only see her as the train wreak that was portrayed over and over again on the news ( and if you take that stuff at face value than you deserve to be lied to), I believe that like Robert Downey Jr who suffered from a drug addiction for years but made a comeback Lindsay too can make a comeback and this chapter in her life will be closed. I think people are hard on celebrities because seeing someone "fall from grace" so publicly makes others feel like they're in a position to judge them and be morally superior so they can feel good about themselves. That will never change, we live in a society that craves scandal and tragedy and when something happens will feel powerful because we think "I'm better than that" and the true is we're not, we're not any better than celebrities and it is not out position to judge them. People forget that celebrities are humans too and they make mistakes; the difference being when we make mistakes it is not in front of the whole world. We know that if we break up with someone it is not going to end up all over the internet (Facebook doesn't count ;p), we know that if we get arrested for a DWI it is not going to be all over "Perez Hilton.com" and if we get divorced our private problems are not going to end up on "TMZ.com" and/or become a subject of public debate. The saying "You can't judge a person until you've walked a mile in their shoes" applies here there are bigger issues in the world than who getting divorced/arrested this week.
