早报爆米花版 featured Celebrity Bloggers on one of their columns. They were: Mr Brown, Xiaxue and Dawn Yan respectively. I went to on of the blogger's blogs(
xiaxue's one) and discovered what attracted so many hits to the blog was merely the usual crap D: Which is to say: beauty, bitching, shopping, random thoughts(not to mention narcissist ones) et cetera. I was very disappointed that 《爆米花》chose to feature such people in their columns. I understand that it was an interview on celebrity bloggers and the trend of them, but I think it is completely unecessary to divert our attention to such blog content. The blog that they previously featured quite a long time ago,
thisisnaive.com, is so much better than all of those so-called celebrity bloggers out there. You should go and see thisisnaive, it always make me feel so peaceful and happy (:
I don't understand why people like to delve into other people's lives so much and why they like girls that swear and say the f word at least once in a hour. I mean, look at Tila Tequila, the bisexual girl that got famous because of her trashy pin-up pictures on MySpace and who now has an equally disgusting bisexual reality series into its 2nd season already, in which she kisses both guys and girls and walks around skimpily in a little dress that barely covers her butt. And then look at Paris Hilton, a socialite that loves to throw away her money on parties and owns a sex tape. Why do people like to read so much about them? Is it because they're so sick of their own boring dramaless life? Is it because they like to gossip about the shameless details of someone else's life?
To put it in a quote by Mr. Al Gore(my green hero!) "The planet is in distress and all of the attention is on Paris Hilton. We have to ask ourselves what is going on here."
Oh not to mention Ellen DeGeneres on Paris's comment that she herself is dumb: "She's not getting anywhere doing that. If that really is an act, if she really was playing dumb, then what does that say about our society that we're celebrating someone who was successful because they're not smart?"
Anyway, I thought that Xiaxue looked fake. I'm not jealous of her(=.=) and I won't ever be, but seriously, most of her body parts are not natural. She dyed her hair a weird straw blonde colour, tanned her skin until her skin looked weird in contrast with her light blonde hair, wears fake eyelashes everyday(till they look like little black shutters that go "poof poof" when she blink), put crystals on her nails till they looked like claws and wears lowcutting dresses and takes pictures of herself acting cute and then post it with a caption "I'm so chio" or words with similar meaning on her blog. I'm not saying that I hate her, I never hate people anymore, I merely
dislike them. Anyway, I just think that she's too commercialised and superficial. I do not think making money through online blogging is a bad idea, particularly if you have many readers, but I do not appreciate the way she acts and the way she puts herself across. It's all too fake to me and reminds me of Pink's song "Stupid Girls".
Hello, people? It's time to wake up.
