Now Britney can breathe a little easier

A recent CNN report shows that the paparazzi are now also tailing Clinton and Obama and even the entertainment magazines are featuring them on their covers instead of the latest celebrity breakdowns.

Britney and the other Hollywood celebrities can be a little relieved as their lives won’t be in the tabloids in the coming weeks as the media is concentrating on Obama’s basketball game in a university or Clinton’s speech in a pickup truck or John Mccain cuddling a baby. And the odd thing is, they sell. It seems we are more curious of how the politicians spend their days instead of Jennifer Aniston suntanning with John Mayer.

I daresay that we are becoming frighteningly smart readers. I say frighteningly smart because we now care more about important issues such as the election, how the hopefuls are coming up with ways on how to solve the high gas prices or the mortgage rates or our healthcare. But then, why do they need to be feature in celebrity magazines? What does that tell us on how these politicians will do just to get attention?

Jessica Alba has it All but The Eye

What more can a woman want? Jessica Alba seems to have it all – she has the looks, the talent, the fans, the wealth, the boyfriend, the baby and finally, a MySpace account. What more can a woman ask?
Well, we’ve always known that she is more than just a pretty face. And now she’s more than just having the nicest eyes. She is in The Eye. Okay that sounded really cheesy but well….it is a horror film and I wanted to horrify you with my statements.
Kidding aside, have you seen the trailer? Well, there has been a lot of horror stories involving blind people… seeing things they shouldn’t see and all but maybe Jessica Alba’s blind horror movie will have a twist we’ve never seen before.
According to the interview I read, she was really looking for the right horror movie. She said that she wanted to remove herself from the character and truly immerse herself in a role… which the interviewer said was a sign of a good actress, and humility aside she agreed.
So what do I get out of this… is it possible that Alba doesn’t really have it all? Apparently so… it would seem to me that by having The Eye she believes that she may be getting more respect in the movie industry that she’s in. Although we know that she is more than a pretty face, maybe she needs to prove it to herself still and to the rest of her colleagues in Hollywood.
