Pre-Emptive Strike
Feb. 8th, 2007 01:18 pmAnyone rejoicing over the death of Anna Nicole Smith should be reincarnated as a ditzy blonde obsessed with looks and opinion, and who can never go down that last dress size. Seriously, knock it off, people.
Yes, she was messed up. Yes, she was very messed up. Yes, she had a very high amount of media saturation. But no matter how much of insane personal life we didn't want to hear but couldn't escape from, she was still a person. Her life was really sad, and I'm sorry she couldn't get herself together before she died.
This is a huge problem with the objectification of celebrities: we forget they're just people, no more and (certainly) no less.
