Of Sleeping Pill Overdose and Good News

Another sad story is the apparent depression of Alexa Ray Joel. For those of you who don’t know her, she is a new singer trying to make it big in the big time. But honestly, she doesn’t have to. She is the daughter of Billy Joel and supermodel mom Christie Brinkley. Anyway, Alexa was hospitalized because she reportedly took an overdose of Traumeel pills, a homeopathic medication. This act was supposedly to bring back her lost love, Jimmy Riot. Apparently, the ploy did not work and rather backfired on Alexa. When things like these happen, one gets to think about families getting broken. Because families get broken, the lives of children are severely affected and they carry it to adulthood. That is why I really hope that Tiger Woods and his wife Elin Nordegren really do make up.

Anyway, the pretty lassie turned vamp is back. Here is Lindsay Lohan and her photo shoot with Muse Magazine. Just last night, I watched a re-run of Herbie: Fully Loaded. LiLo still looked so sweet. I also still vividly remember her stint as a twin in Parent Trap. What happened to her? To the sweet little girl. Sigh…what misguided fame can do to a person. Anyway, Lindsay is featured in Muse Magazine, and for me, the photos are hardly amusing. Honestly, they don’t look artistic at all. But it just shows how Lindsay is now as a person. I don’t want to say it, I will leave it to you to decide. However, I don’t want to post the photos here, too much for my blog. But here is the cover of the magazine. You decide.

Now the good news, lest you think that I only bring depressing news. American Idol and Christian singer Carrie Underwood had a Christmas TV Special entitled An All-Start Holiday Special. But it is not the run of the mill holiday presentation complete with Santa Claus and faux snow. It was a little of everything. And she had guests like Dolly Parton, David Cook, Chenoweth and Christine Applegate. So many people loved it, even critics. She is making waves. Way to go, girl!

Emaciated Hollywood Stars

The very thin Victoria Beckham, Lindsay Lohan, and Nicole Richie

What is becoming of Hollywood stars nowadays? Is the waif look now in? I think waifs look better than them. And at least, waifs have a reason–they are homeless and no one to feed them.

So what is driving these filthy rich, world-famous celebrities to starve themselves in order to look like the hungry children of war-torn countries? Do they think that being extraneously thin would make them more beautiful in the eyes of their adoring fans?

Or their being very thin on the outside is the result of a serious emotional or psychological problem? Are they suffering from anorexia nervosa? Or perhaps, bulimia?

Whatever it is, I wish that these three girls above, Victoria Beckham, Lindsay Lohan, and Nicole Richie, and the rest of emaciated Hollywood celebrities, would start eating something. With all the money that they have in the world, they can certainly afford to hire a nutritionist-dietitian and personal trainer to make them look their best–not some kind of homeless puppy scrounging the garbage cans on the streets.

P.S. On a different note, I would like to thank my blogger friend, Mommy Ruby, president of Negros Bloggers, and author of Pinay Mommy Online. As birthday gift, she gave me this domain and 1 year hosting. She also graciously transferred my blog and started the ball rolling. If not for her, I would still be procrastinating about when to have my own website, primarily because I am busy.

Anyway, thank you so much, Mommy. You are a blessing! :D
