Ok, Sherly Crow. So you have breast cancer. I find it a *little* suspect that you all of a sudden found out you had breast cancer after breaking up with The Cancer Guy (let's face it, that douche-bag is totally The Cancer Guy...what? He is!) So all of a sudden theres this huge break up, and *snap* Sheryl Crow has breast cancer. Wha...? You see what I mean? It's weeeeiiiirrrdddduuuhh. I mean, I know cancer is *everywhere* and in *all things* and *all people* these apocolyptic days OF DOOM, but for crissakes!
I know about these celebrities. I read People magazine ok. Sometimes US Weekly. If I'm feeling dirty...Vanity Fair. Its not easy, but someone has to do it. It feeds me. Whatever. The point is that celebrities have these things called "press reps" or what have you, who strategically release information about their clients to the press. Now...I know this is going down the shady path of conspiracy...but hear me out. I dont think there's a celebrity with a press rep who doesnt do some strategically public thing without a 'reason' however flaky, vapid, ridiculous, selfish, that reason is. Oh yes, behind every public snapshot, public outing, public apology, public entreaty, public confession, public urination, there is a reason.
Anyway, this Sheryl Crow thing really gets under my skin.
Exhibit A:
http://people.aol.com/people/galleries/0,19884,1175266,00.html I'm sorry, but almost everyone has or will get cancer. Just because you wrote a shit song that was popular when girls were wearing scrunchies and getting over Amy Grant & just because you dated The Cancer Guy (who is such a phony and you know it) doesnt mean that you are any more special than any other woman who is actually dying of breast cancer right now. Stop commodyifying Cancer you assholes (you being: Sheryl Crow and Lance Armstrong). Are there going to be special Sheryl Crow breast cancer bracelets now that we can all buy to show our support of her shitty shitty music.
Assholes.
