America’s Next Top Sex Worker?
Do you ever wonder why the powers-that-be don’t just cut to the chase and proclaim Kim Kardashian the greatest whore in human history?
Her accomplishments truly inspire awe. Dig Kim’s breakthrough sex tape audition with “boyfriend” Ray; the slick mag ad of a relationship with Reggie Bush; and now the middle Kardashian sister’s alleged casting of Kris Humphries to become her husband. Kim most likely has created a new for-fame prostitution threshold.
But, what if Kim isn’t really whoring? What if she has undertaken some magnificent breeding experiment, aiming to develop the most athletic, wealthy and telegenic creatures on the planet? That wouldn’t be sex work. That would be evil. That her obviously soulless new marriage could be failing seems light collateral damage on a path to inevitable pop culture glory.
Banned in Beijing
In a related story, China has placed new restrictions on programming that might be numbing us to traumas such as divorce and worse. The decision results from public outrage over an horrific incident earlier this month in the southern part of the nation: A two-year-old girl was run over – twice – by a hit-and-run driver and 17 minutes passed before a garbage collector stopped to help. A dozen people passed by the screaming baby.
Are Chinese values becoming media-warped? The government this week handed down a law that restricted television content. The crackdown installs an ominous-sounding limitation on “excessively entertaining” content of the sort any season of Real Housewives would violate.
And while next to no one likes to see eyes averted from wounded babies in the road, how badly this edict could go has got to be considered. Earlier this year the government put content restrictions on a show called You Are the One after an episode featured a girl saying that she would rather be unhappy dating a man with a Beemer than be happy with a man who owned only a bike. Would we want to live in a world where a TV character couldn’t say that?

Those Two Were Still Married?
Christina Milian is internationally known for playing a dynamic singer something like her younger self in the 2005 hit Be Cool. Four years later she was pregnant and married to ascendent R&B producer The Dream. Just one year after that, The Dream wasn’t only producing Beyoncé’s “Single Ladies, he was sampling them as well. This week the divorce finally became final.
The Dream has on his record another snack-sized marriage. His first R&B mate, Nivea, divorced her producer three years into the gig. They have three children together. His new ex-wife has one. The Dream, for his part, has had a quiet 2011, so regardless of any lingering animosity, Milian better hope the hits start coming again.
