Starry tantrums and Sanity clutches...

The other day, I was watching a bakwaas show on a stupid channel on the idiot box (Yeah, even then I was watching it. Don't ask why). It was a show on how movie stars party, how they step out in style, blah, blah, blah...

Suddenly, a VJ wearing 4-inch high stilettos popped out of nowhere and was trying very hard to put on a pout like that of Marilyn Monroe. I really appreciate her effort, but it was more like a duck's beak. Anyway, so this female kept blabbering about one particular "celebrity", who freaked out at her assistant for getting her a second-rate party clutch (Oops!!). Bechari celeb, she had to attend a high-profile party the next day clutching the wrong clutch!


Needless to say, the fashion police termed it a serious crime and debated on how people's fashion sense is going down these days. Now that was a major fault on the assistant's part,psst...


And so, the question(s) must be asked. Why is it that these so-called stars find it difficult to cope with the harsh reality (Not Reality TV, mind you) of life? Why can't they just behave the way normal people do?? Why? Why?? OK, too many questions lying unanswered there...


Moreover, our lady takes out time from her impossible schedule and gives an exclusive interview to another news channel who couldn't fill the evening slot with better news. After the obvious "We're just good friends" when asked about the seemingly close relationship with her latest co-star, she goes on to say about the party incident, "Oh goodness gracious!! THAAT was like a freakin' nightmare! You know,like...I am like err...a youth icon in this country and people try to emulate me (Yes, 'emulate' was the most complex word she could manage). So,umm...ya it was kinda embarassing."


I say, absolutely madamji...I envisage a whole nation of young girls carrying mismatching clutches to parties in the near future. Sad. And yes, it IS a mandatory thing for you oh-I'm-so-hot socialites to have designer vanity clutches. Gucci,Chanel,Armani...nothing less would do.

Or wait, should I call them 'sanity' clutches??
