With the Oscars fast approaching there will be a dearth of good gossip; no one will want to blow their chance at an invite by making an ass of themselves. Like children before Christmas celebs will be one their very best behaviour. The only high profile fuck ups we can expect are from those who have absolutely no chance of being invited to the festivities, let alone winning an award. They have nothing to lose, and that probably adds to their sense of desperation.
Take Amy Winehouse for instance. She was an up and coming singer once. That seems like about a million years ago. Back then she would`ve been on the short list to show up at the awards, and lend some street cred by singing a song or two. Now Amy would get an invite if the Oscar where under threat of terrorist attack and they needed a body to throw on the time bomb. So Amy is free to make as much of an ass of herself as she likes; and that she does! For instance her latest Blake related escapade is already making waves - rippling from one side of the Atlantic to the other like a great tawdry tsunami.
Now Blake Civil Fielder has filed for divorce from Amy, after making some public and mawkish statements about not wanting to drag her down. That's prompted a response from Amy. Though she never seemed as concerned with her marriage as she has with slowly and publicly killing herself, Whorehouse has now turned over a new leaf. She hasn't stopped slowly and publicly killing herself. Oh no, that would be far too much to ask. She is fighting the divorce, and she has rediscovered her husband though, by way of the prison visit.
Now Amy was never big on prison visits before. She made one or two at the beginning of Blakie`s incarceration for perverting the course of justice and slapping the shit out of a bar tender. After that she tapered off, and went on to being a full time train wreck. Now that Blake wants out, she`s decided that absence - or in her case maybe abscesses -make the heart grown fonder.
Amy has in fact placed her name on the waiting list for prison visiting privileges. She also plans to return to England any day now. that will make visiting alot more convenient. Now mockers can`t really be blamed, since Amy has made herself very busy while Blakie`s been banged up in the nick. It has all been saving drowning swimmers either. For one thing Amy has made herself quite busy with a fitness instructor named Andrew. Not too much is known about him except that he works out of St Lucia, has terrible taste in women, but has the good sense to keep his last name private. He ain`t the only dalliance either. She`s also been getting it on with 21 year old actor Josh Bowman - there are pictures of them frolicking together!
Still Amy inisists that she still loves Blake. now whether or not any one this side of the Britney line on the bell curve buys that one, she probably really is serious about visiting him. She`s probably even serious about fighting the divorce too. Word has it that Blake is asking for half of everything, or half of what`s left of everything anyway! Ain`t romance grand. it`s also kind of inspiring to know that this crazy mixed up world`s many problems don`t amount to a hill of beans compared to the petty antics of two screwed up, immature, attention seeking, money grubbing celebrities. Here`s looking at you, kids.
Post Script: Pain, perception & playing with fire
Now Amy`s a gal who seems to like playing with fire. In fact you might even say that girl on fire is her new act since she`s given up singing. Who are we kidding - there are more effective ways of getting an audience than talent. Well if Amy`s is gonna douse herself in gasoline and then play with matches, she might want to take a look at the following video. It`s a very scholarly dissertation on pain and perception.
