To the extreme!

Ok, so what is UP in hollywood these days? I mean, REALLY. Why is everyone so "in the extreme" right now?

I used to like Tom Cruise. After Vanilla Sky and Eyes Wide Shut, I started to question that. Now, I think the man has gone plum insane. Seriously. I mean, it is great that you're all in love with this youngling and all, but give the publicity a REST already. The next thing you know, they'll be publicizing exactly what "Tom-Kat" had for breakfast each day and how often they do the wild thing! And the Scientology stuff...relax on it, Tom-Tom...OK?

Then, today I saw a shot of Courtney Love. I was SHOCKED. Gone was the drugged out weird chick and she'd been replaced by someone about 100 lbs heavier. Apparently, she's off the drugs and making jokes about how she's replaced food for drugs. Well, um, yeah... I guess so! I haven't seen one this extreme since Anna-Nicole's weight loss.

The other night, I succumbed to watching a special on VH1 about where the biggest child stars are now. Nothing too interesting or shocking really...what you'd expect. (Oh, except Susan Olsen--who played Cindy Brady--actually did NOT do a porno after all. Urban legend strikes again! ) Anyway, they'd all say they've moved on and yadda, yadda, BUT if the right part came along THEY MIGHT consider going back to acting. Duh. But, here's another extreme changer...Corey Haim of the "two annoying Correys" from the 90s, well he's a chunk-o-rama now too. I barely recognized him! He must be on the same 12-step program as Courtney.

Then, there's the opposite extreme of severe weight loss, like we're seeing in Lindsey Lohan and Nicole Ritchie. What is up there? I always thought Lindsey looked great the way she was--very Ann Margaretesque. Now she's a walking skeleton. Very sad.

All of these people make my life seem pretty darn bland, that's all I have to say...

There's a girl I work with who has a subscription to "Star" magazine and when she's finished with them, she gives them to me. There's nothing better than winding down at the end of the day and reading trash mags.

You're right, they are very extreme. There's no in between with them. Either they're really fat, or really skinny, really smart and straight, or really stupid and flakey.

And Tom Cruise? He's off the deep end. I can't stand to look at him anymore. Tom-Kat, the next Bennifer.
