Smart Society..are we?

Ran out of puke to throw up listening to the wedding of an artist back home. Was it necessary to make it that big, I mean real huge! Fine, you are an icon and it was your greatest day … but again with all the hype and publicity, spotlight and exposure, coverage and shit…(arrgghh , I need to puke again..)
Back on vacation last month, all I heard on media, other than rape cases and sick bomoh molesting customer, was the fairy tale of this artist and her grand marriage. Ironic, it was aired live on tube as if all of us were devotees of hers…give me a break! In all fairness, media was also to be blamed for exploiting them.
For me, what it was, is just an ordinary marriage of a desperate 'if-not-would have-been-andartu' artist with an old chap who I assumed is a firm advocate of variety & viagra. That was that. Oh well..selamat hingga ke anak cucu.
And another hit sensation, was the break off of an artist and his cheap-publicity-seeker fiancĂ©…it was also shown live on TV! These two events were covered at national level, and the sickest part of this was the statistic showing millions glued to their TV watching either one of these two sick events.
Now, talk about smart society we are!
