When we marry our sweetheart most of the time we're young, kinda dumb, and basically broke. I mean, a lot of us, at least.

Stop Putting Celebrities On Pedestals!

Why do we hold celebrities to a higher standard than we do ourselves? I mean, if they were politicians, then I would understand how their decisions can be detrimental to their careers. That line of thinking makes sense to me; it is rational because they have influence over our lives. Do celebrities have any influence over the public at all? I hate that when celebrities go through the same things the rest of us go through, the media has a field day with them. Who doesn't know someone who has been divorced? Yet, when it's a celebrity we decide to make it public fodder. It's not right. We need to Keep Reading >>>
