why do the american people require "some" of its famous entertainers, politicians, etc. to maintain semi-pristine images while we as individuals do and say all the foul things we bash others for doing? and why, do we scrutinize to such an extent that people lose their entire life's worth because of one mistake? i'm really tired of hearing about tiger's infedelity (he did a screwed up thing to his WIFE, NOT THE AMERICAN PEOPLE OR TAG HEUER OR SCHICK OR NIKE). so, the nigga can't sell a razor cuz he parties hard and cheats?! that doesn't mean he don't know how to shave!! lol! i understand the severity of his actions but don't u kind of feel like we shouldn't be privy to that kind of info anyway? shouldn't this be a private matter between him and his wife? he's still a great athlete, thats what we know him for and that's what we should focus on.

i feel the same way about chris. he and rihanna are so young to have this black cloud over their lives and careers. while i think they both jumped back on the scene maybe a little too early (i think time should've been given to the public to forget cuz we most certainly do FORGET) and recently there's been a lot of re-hashing for the sake of album promo (i understand the defensive mechanisms on his part but her 20/20 interview? mad late!! "what's my motivation?" "c'mon son"...) i think everyone needs to "woo-sah" right quick because this was a personal matter that should've been dealt with as such. who are we to make judgements about what others do? i can name at least 5 very powerful men who were drug abusers, women-beaters, cheaters, liars, etc that successfully led this country or to this day still make us move to their music. people should be allowed to make mistakes, learn and grow; that is life.

when did EVERYTHING become "our" business?
