More on Reality TV

This week has been crazy, you have a guy go nuts on big brother, and try to head smash another houseguest. After he's kicked out of the house, only days later he was arrested for DUI. His brother another reality star from the TV show survivor is arrested for spousal abuse. Two other big brother previous houseguests are arrested for running a prescription drug ring. It's a bit like winning the lottery, you suddenly have this fame/notoriety but you don't know how to use it for anything positive. You're the same person you were before you won all the money, or you're the same person you were before you went into the house or the island, but suddenly everybody knows you. It's not like you're a movie star where you've grown into the thing and know how to handle it.

Okay, maybe not everybody knows how to handle it we've seen more than a few celebrities go down the dark side but what makes you think just because you were on television and you got your 15 minutes of fame you now have this power to get away with doing whatever you want? Worse yet did you believe that you could do anything you wanted before that and now you just have this shield of fame to act within?

Maybe it's not a shield of fame, maybe it's a spotlight of observation that now can out all of your mistakes and misdeeds and none of us would look good under that degree of light. I don't know personally, but to me it seems like that woman who fought legally to get into that military Academy representing all women everywhere only to drop out as soon as things got tough. Do I think it was an easy experience for her? Hell no I think it was terrible, I think it was a horrible experience being the first woman into a military all-male academy, I'm sure most of the guys were absolute gentlemen?

But she made that choice to stand up and represent women everywhere, she should have thought long hard and deeply about the consequences of doing what she was about to do and then one way or another she needed to dig deep and find the strength and prove that women are equal to men and could do anything we can.

So I guess in my opinion you reality TV stars, all of you people who are out there wanting your moment in the sun, don't complain and whine when it turns out that the paparazzi are out for you or people are taking your comments and actually listening to them and making fun of them when they're ridiculous, you went looking for this.

And if you're on a reality TV show and you leave or win and come out of it and act like a jackass don't be surprised when people point out your stupidities, you asked for the situation and you can't be shocked when it turns around and bites you on the backside.

Anyway those are just my thoughts and I'll leave you with them thanks for your time and your patience and listening
