General comments about celebrities and their lifestyles
I just watched a commercial with 'Ice Tea', I think it was for 'Ice Shield' auto protection.
But seeing him in commercial after all these years just got me to thinking and that thought is...
It's ironic that the celebrities that started off the most 'Hardcore', like in rap or dirty comedy or Hard Rock, have actually stayed out of trouble as they matured, more so than celebrities we considered 'soft' like 'Bill Cosby' and others.
Eddie Murphy brought out same issue when he appeared on SNL for reunion show.
It just seems all the sophisticated celebs are the ones in legal trouble now, not the raw and raunchy ones like Ice Tea or Snoop Dog or Ice Cube, Dre and so forth.
I mean I'm sure it's very hard for younger people to ever imagine that lovable Ice T actually started off as a hardcore rapper who had real life associations with gangs, back in the day.
I mean look how far Ice T has come.
I'm actually proud of the guy, he's done way more with his life than I've done with mine, that's for sure, now he's an established Hollywood actor, TV actor, and does commercials.
I mean his career could of gone either way, but he stayed smart.
And he has longevity in the 'game' way longer than most, even longer than Snoop Dog.
Ice T, in fact, is probably the longest lasting 1980's rapper to still be relevant today, as in still commercially viable, still able to push brands with his name recognition.
Now that's branding, but he did it all when young and on fire.
People should take note of that.
Cause what you do when young will either carry you through life or bury in life.

Johnny Carson vs Dick Cavett show
In the future will do a Johnny Carson show vs Dick Cavett show comparison.
I really never new about the Dick Cavvett show until watching 'Decades' antenna TV.
He had on all the same stars that Carson had on, but I don't remember Dick Cavett growing up....
One day, either here, or else where will do comparison of the two shows.

Got sucked into one of those 'pop culture full of adds celebrity' websites, and got further sucked into clicking the 'see which celebrities own their one private jets' ect.
And after scrolling through like 10, I just got sick.
Here are all these snobby celebrities jet setting around the globe, yet lecturing others about 'conservations' and this and that and whatever.
Owning a business jet is no small fiscal feat, I mean even if thing sits, and never flown, I think the annual required maintanance on such a jet is over $100,000, just to sit in a hanger, could be higher than that actually.
I mean I'm glad these celebs can afford them, but makes them no higher in my book of decent people.
They're just one heart beat away from nothing like the rest of us.

Most newer up and coming celebs aren't allowed to earn that much money anymore. Has zero to do with 'talent' and more to do with 'the gate keepers' of wealth...every one has talent to some degree or another, but notice not everyone a millionaire? Gate keepers decide who they want to enrich or not, but it comes at a price...play stupid if you want (referring to anyone who may doubt that). Exposure, distribution, contracts, ect, those things aren't just given to anyone anymore, but rather a special club of individuals...but this mainly applies to the entertainment industry where talent is very subjective to the ones evaluating it. The 'gate keepers' could turn a homeless street bum into a Movie start tomorrow, if they wanted to....think about that. |

I'm now a fan of Johnny Depp after seeing this
Never new they were so down to earth.
I always assumed they were a handsome stuck up prude, until I saw their off camera persona.
Now I like this.
Maybe cause they were always cast in such mainstream 'big box' or big studio movies in the past is what gave me the impression they were just a plastic prude.
But after seeing this video, I now like them.

I really don't care about celebrities anymore.
to me celebrities are simply jerks, like my neighbors, who simply have more money.
a celebrity is basically a wealthy jerk.

Not even the men in the bible aspire me anymore, they were just common aristocrats of their day.
If alive today, in comparison, they'd be of the elite class.
Most of them anyways..

I think Will Smith slapping Chris Rock across the face was, well, what it was.
And to me it hasn't in one bit tarnished how I fill about Will Smith.
I wish the media would quit thinking it can speak for everyone.

Hollywood now pretends to be the Holiest place on the planet, the pump out violent film after violent film, yet one real life slap by Will, and now everyone in Hollywood is a Munk and a Priest
The Zone always sees a different angle than the brainwashed masses.
Hollywood dirt, now pretends to be champions of peace and goodwill...please.
Anyone seen a movie lately?

The zone never follows the crowd, ever.
Get vaccine...no
Hate on Russia...no
Hate on Will Smith...no
The Zone never follows popular logic, which in the future always proves to be twisted.

Chris Rock isn't no Saint, could give a dam how many times he gets slapped upside the head.
All the dirty sick crap that has come out his mouth over the decades.
he's not my saint, that's for sure.
