Celebrity - Weight loss 4 Years, 8 Months ago
|
|
Katona, Price, Nolan etc.
Hasbeens getting paid for telling us how much weight they've lost. Etc.
And later - how much fat they put on, and lost again¡¡
Then - how I funded everything my first (or fourth) husband did.
But he robbed me! My new fellow is great with all the children though.
I'm on telly again too!
Some untalented women have, however, been successful.
Holden - for example - who was smart enough to marry Les Dennis, at the right time.
Leaving him, when pecuniary advantageous...

It is very dangerous to equate weight loss with success, as the celebrity dieting merry go round implies.
The worst of it is, they
appear to deliberately target celebrities with eating disorders such as poor Chanelle Hayes, (who has always spoke openly) and those who have very obvious mental health struggles, when it is bound to make things worse.
I am not sure that its fair to imply that Amanda Holden used Les Dennis as a step up,though.
Why wouldn't she just be in love with him? He seems pleasant enough.

1. Well, she didn't do much before she hooked up with Dennis!
2. Maybe that's why she had an affair with Neil Morrissey?
And she seemed to go to some lengths to publicise both daliances.
Right from the beginning.
This lady craves attention - and is good at getting it.
Her current modus operandi is to only nearly wear her clothes...

You dont mean she leaked the affair to the press herself, surely?
When totally talentless people (like me) get this disproportionate amount of publicity and exposure - something is afoot.
Being only reasonably articulate, and looking good (with effort, and costume tricks) - doesn't justify/make or produce success.
Mediocrities need a scheming brain to progress; Holden didn't marry the local barman (post Dennis/Morrissey) - did she?
She strategically involved the unsuspecting Morrissey, to increase her 'status' - before leaving the naieve Dennis, who was seriously played.

it's the era of mediocrity.
In some ways it's quite interesting as in so many "reality TV" shows...I mean I actually like watching two ladies scolding dirty filthy Chavs because of their ghastly homes littered with trash and then helping them clean it up.
I'm very fond of The Voice and especially the European versions where great entertainers are discovered (not sure if they have a career though).
Alternatively shows like I'm A Celeb etc leave me cold.
Mediocrity is The Buzz word of the 21st Century.
It even produces faux personalities like Boris Johnson and Donald Trump.

Trump and Boris wouldn't be on my celebrity mediocrities list.
Apart from becoming the leader of their respective countries, both were very successful earlier.
DT as a property developer and TV personality. Boris as a quasi-academic, linguist and editor/journalist.

Total failures haven't been in the Forbes 400, for several decades!
Or earned c$220 million for The Apprentice.
Currently ranked 259 by Forbes (in terms of America's richest), he bought the Trump Building - on Wall Street - for $1 million, a few years ago.
It's now valued at over $500 million.
Not bad - for a total failure...
