best week ever scoops

I'm not in the habit of reporting celebrity stuff, but a little bit earlier I happened to post about some pictures of Suri Cruise that someone sent me the link for. Then a couple minutes ago I went over to the Best Week Ever blog to catch up on the random whatnots... lo and behold! They had a ridiculously similar post from earlier this morning. Knowing the friend that sent me the link, she may have even found it right from there.

Ah well, further confirmation that years of doing improv and sketch points your brain in similar directions.

a picture is worth a thousand words

Here is a lovely series of pictures of little Suri Cruise. The site where they are posted, POPSUGAR, comments:

"Suri looks like such a little person - it's so cute!"

Huh? Of course she's a little person. Does this come as some sort of surprise to you? What I think is more interesting is how the picture stinks with symbolic forshadowing of the life this little girl will lead. That because of the beliefs of her parents, the world will always be on the other side of a fence that, while basically trasparent, is still containing. Now I could care less if the public knew anything about her... I think this obsession we have with celebrity is ridiculous, even more so with the once-removed segment; family of celebrities. I just think it's an interesting visual commentary for the little person on the other side of that fence.
