Shallow News

[Diasi]

We've had two days of news about some celebrity, of whom I'd never heard, who fell from a hotel balcony & when it first appeared I thought this is only going in one direction.

Hardly the topic for a cheap crack  !

I know, that's what I thought when I was posting it but then I thought I can only use the topics that present themselves which is why I called it shallow news.

Then why post at all ?

My guess is that it's a drunk or drugged up pop star.

Whoever he was.. he was somebody's son..

Sometimes fame can destroy.. Poor lad..

Well why post at all about Lammy or Starmer or anyone else who's in the news.

Payne took over the news so I posted about him.

My guess is that it's a drunk or drugged up pop star.

It appears so according to other guests who also witnessed him being aggressive & smashing things up in the hotel.

Described as a toxic misogynist by his ex-fiancee, I think it's safe to say he wasn't a role model.

I don't believe drink/drug problems happen over night,  so  surely people around him like friends or family,  would have seen what he was doing to himself?   

It's a  pity none of them got him to accept some kind of help,  like counselling, Psychiatry,  or even a stay at The Priory to dry out,  or something similar.

So young to end his life like that.
