In a world of have's and have-not's, this is my take on the current celeb situation.

Avril's engagement

Ok, so unless you've been living under a rock or entirely too busy with your own time-restricted life, you have heard that the petite singer Avril Lavigne is engaged (again, mind you) to the lead singer of Nickelback, Chad Kroeger. I have barely heard this guy, Chad's name before, which is surprising because you would think that Avril would continue her trend of dating attention getting guys for the attention whore that she is. Her previous list of bf's include Brody Jenner (one of the Kardashian klan), Wilmer Valderrama (of That 70's Show), Brandon Davis (a rich kid-socialite), and Deryk Whibley (lead singer of Sum 41). Well, that is surprisingly common in Hollywood, to date basically everyone, ya know. That is how you network, OK, I get that. But supposedly these two met and "connected" on the basis of music/song-writing and being rich together...awww, how romantic. After dating Brody Jenner, she "quietly" dated this guy Chad for 6 months. The funny thing is, if they were not doing this for anything but sheer attention, they would have KEPT IT QUIET! and simply enjoyed being with each other. They have all the money they could possibly need together to have a wonderful life, travel, luxuries, etc. I mean, why come out as a couple now? For attention and money? DUH. But that implies that this is, again, a typical business arrangement in Hollywood. Not for the love, but for money. Now they can sell their images together and show off her 14-carat ring, that literally is as big as her head. Do we really need more images of a little, lost girl with a diamond so large that it could afford to feed millions of starving kids around the globe? Oh no, it is much better off on a has-been's ring finger for her to look at in her mansion, while she sits around and pre-plans paparazzi run in's. Wow. Self-indulgent, yes. In my opinion, a pathetic attempt to revive a long forgotten career. Do some good, Avril. Save lives, spend the money elsewhere (like charities) and really impress your fans.
