Jessica Simpson isn't fat but I am!

This morning on my radio station I hear that the unemployment numbers will be announced soon, bad news about the economy will be dealt with after the breaking news that Jessica Simpson isn't doing a photo shoot and the inquisitive DJ wonders if it is because she is "too fat to be photographed" --- my mind spins as I wonder when our world became so stupid.

We are losing jobs at breakneck speed, unemployment is out of control, people are not just losing their homes but in some extreme cases, actually taking their lives over their desperate situations and yet this all sits on the back burner while we discuss Jessica's butt in "mom jeans" over the real news that can wait.

Am I the only person to think this is insane?  Who cares about another person's weight unless they are so grossly overweight (which I am) that they are going to be a burden on our medical system?  Before you start hating me for being fat I want to let you know I am working on my weight, coming down from 440 to about 350 at the moment.

Have you ever been called out about your weight by someone?  It is very uncomfortable.  It is almost as tough as walking into a buffet lunch where the chairs have arms on them and only the back quarter of my backside will fit in the chair.  Very uncomfortable indeed.

Can you imagine how horrible it is to be called out by the whole entire press in the world about your weight?  It has to be hideous beyond belief.

Unless this DJ is working with Jessica Not-Fat Simpson on a weight loss program (think Kirstie and Jenny) then it is none of his concern as to the size and shape of Ms. Simpson.  His mother obviously did not raise a gentleman because everyone knows it is bad patter to ask a lady her weight.

Weigh in on this subject.  Do the media make much ado about nothing while ignoring the very heart and soul of the news?

    agreed.. the media is made up of news hungry mongrels and nothing more, the ones whocouldnt make it in real tv or broadcasting had to result to national enq. and tmz etc.. they got no life so they figure they might as well follow someone around with a camera, what i wanna know is what makes them not stalkers but if i went and hid in the bushes of john smiths house and photographed him it would be labeled stalking? i dont get that
