I think it’s getting harder and harder to be somewhat normal as social media takes over the world. And of course, we are more informed because of social media, so it’s like an ouroboros. Amanda Bynes, britney spears, Lindsay Lohan, Kanye, etc. All driven mad by fame. You have to have a very firm understanding of who you are and what matters to you to withstand the scrutiny and and judgment of the public that feeds you. And who has those qualities before the age of 25/30? Pretty much no one. |
Who is MG? |
Yes, but FloPo is no shrinking violet. She's a very strong, smart woman with a lot of strong connections to her family. I think they were genuinely okay together. They seem to have parted on okay terms - I've seen them speak kindly to each other via social media post-breakup. |
If you met a 49 year old man who was never married, but professionally successful, and found out he was dating a woman in her mid-20s who worked for him, would you think "well she's a very strong, smart woman with a good family and they seem happy, this guy is probably very well-adjusted." We get it, you have a little crush on Zach Braff. That's fine. But he's a commitmentphobe with a penchant for much younger women. Come on. |
Maggie Gyllenhaal who was mentioned right before the post you quoted. |
+1 He's not a kid. Could have knee, hip or back problems that make it uncomfortable to sit on the floor. |
I was the student of a famous author. This person was snobby and highly critical of everyone and everything. I was at an event and watched them be very polite and present with fans, the kind of Hoi polloi that they rolled their eyes at. Taught me a lesson about public versus private faces. |
It's not like anyone forced him to do the puppy thing? If you don't like dogs, just don't do the video (or shoot them in the face) |

Jessica Alba |
Mandy Moore |
Viola Davis, Angela Bassett. |
I met a lot of celebrities. One who surprised me was Paul Reiser. I met him in LA when I was by myself. I said Hi, mentioned I am also from NY and that my Aunt actually lives in the same apt complex he lived in back in NY. We ended up talking 20 minutes, joking and laughing. Mind you he had a hit network TV show at time.

Tracy Chapman! She keeps her circle very small and tight. |
That was my pick as well. |
