Have You Learned Nothing?

For the past few days, people have been asking me about my thoughts about the Jesse James/Sandra Bullock cheating fiasco. It took me a while to sort out my feelings about this because I wanted to feel sorry for the recent Oscar winner. On the other hand, I kind of wanted to smack some sense into her and America.

First, let's deconstruct who we're talking about here. Jesse James is a tattooed, motorcycle enthusiast who has a pornstar for an ex-wife. I don't know about you, but I wonder why people thought he wasn't capable of cheating. He was married to a pornstar for crying out loud. To be married to a pornstar you have to be one of two types of people. Either a nymph who enjoys watching or a crackhead. He is probably the former of the two. I say he is the former because he had two kids with this pornstar. Plus, you can't go from a pornstar to a goody two shoes like Sandra Bullock and not cheat.
What did we expect?

I feel sorry for Sandra Bullock because all of this came out right after her Oscar win. She worked her whole life for that gold statue and once she gets it, her world crashes around her. So much for riding the wave of success. This is like her getting so much buzz for her role in 'Speed' and then, appearing in the bomb known as, 'Hope Floats'. Not a good look.

But as for America, why are we surprised another man has cheated on his wife. Even though it's wrong, most men do it. Hell, most women do too. It's time we stop with this shock and awe routine when we find out celebrities are going through the same thing we go through. After all, they were normal before becoming famous, right? Normal people do stupid shit without reason. So ease up on dude or go this hard on regular people that cheat. Deal?

And a final word on this, how happy is Tiger Woods' cheating ass now that the heat is taken off of him now?
