James Blunt Hates Gossip... but Loves the Hollywood Ladies

James Blunt Hates Gossip
"I think almost all of [the celebrity magazine and gossip column stories] are made up. I mean it's worth recognizing that it's not actually real life. It's interesting how we even spend so much time focusing on, 'Hey have you heard about so-and-so has done this and that?' and then even discussing whether it's real or important. It's really not important... The emphasis is not on truth, it's on entertainment. The entertainment is about people's private lives, but it's accepted because it makes a lot of money for those industries. I think all of them maybe should have a bit of clarity and a bit of focus that there are a couple of wars going on — global warming and climate change and poverty and disease. These things are more important than who's wearing knickers in Hollywood tonight."

QT said:

Good night my friends - sweet dreams -- have a good weekend . I grew up watching Full House when we could get it and liked the Olson Twins . As for James Blunt -- he has brought up some good points .

malors said:

Sorry James, I issues like war and global warming are just over my head. People who don't wear underwear, however, now that's a topic that I can relate to, I live with a 4 year old and a 2 year old. Refusal to wear underwear at my house means at least a small time-out. Ha Ha

Keen insights from Mr. Blunt. Now please STFU and enjoy your 15 minutes quietly and leave, like a birthday boy with a free Denny's sunday.

Jackie said:

He's spot on accurate. But, like he says, it's a money making machine and it won't ever end. So, celebs will just have to enjoy the perks of being rich and hide out somewhere in the world.

Stephanopoulos said:

Have a great weekend QT and the gang. I liked Full House back in the day too. My youngin watches it here and there nowadays and I still like it. As for James Blunt, liked the song "you're beautiful" but the radio played it over and over! Got sick of it.

Stephanopoulos said:

Good morning everybody. I'm back and ready to rumble. So get ready bloggers.

Stephanopoulos said:

Bring it on bit*h. Been waiting long for me. I'm back. You ran me off for a few hours. But here I am.

Stephanopoulos said:

I have to distribute my PB cookies, but I will return in just a little while. See you all then.

Stephanopoulos said:

I would have been back sooner, but I got on the wrong bus. I will finish getting the cookies out later. Right now I need some refreshment. If you know what I mean.

get lost you idiots said:

I can see this blog is going to turn into another Stephanopoulos blog today. This is just a disgrace.

take a wild guess said:

I love it when they say "knickers." Mary-Kate needs to lose that Boho woman look.

take a wild guess again said:

Sorry "get lost you idiots" this person is in love with me and I feel bad that they have to ruin it for everybody. Now she'll come back and contradict everything I'm saying right now. No wait, no she won't because like the child she is, she won't be "told" what she is going to do next. She is so damn predictable. Anyway, sorry everybody. Believe me I wish she'd take a long walk off of a short pier. Good day all. (not you worm)

you are funny said:

Stephanopoulos no one is in love with you. They just want you and your pit bulls to stop attacking them. I know their are a couple of others on here, but you are the main one. Let the posters put their comments on here without being attacked. This blog needs to be cleaned up. It's always about you, never the topics.

Stephanopoulos said:

It's always about me because you stalk me and make it everybody's problem. Your silly names like Diane, Monique, callinyouout, you are funny, razer sharpe, tara, keep it real, and many, many more are not fooling anyone. If you're sick of the blog being about me, then stop making it about me. And, funny you mention letting people post their comments, but you don't happen to leave one. Hmmph.

I think my stalker needs to re-read James Blunt's comment about the other things in life that are more important.

Stehanopoulos said:

I will stalk anyone I want to and post under any name I want to. I am Monique, callingyouout, tara and many others. This blog should be about me. I have been on here a very long time. But my favorites are dr and Blaster. I get to let my angry out with those names. That's what this blog is all about letting your anger loose. Sorry, you are funny, never going to happen. I will not help make this a better blog.

Betty J said:

This is so stupid. Stephanopoulos get a life. You are sick.

I don't know who J Blunt is, but he makes sense.

PB cookies said:

Even typing it out yourself, you didn't realize the irony of it all.

James Blunt is a great singer and brought up some good points.

Betty J said:

What a surprise here you are again like a bad penny. Stephanopoulos/PB cookies. What are you getting paid to get all these hits?????

Stephanopoulos said:

I'm not trying to hide that I am PB cookies. Just wanted to give the S name a rest for a while. But to answer your question, a lot.

and sometimes M & M said:

Comments people, leave them.

James Blunt is right, we should be worrying about more important things.

Stephanopoulos said:

Good morning my friends. It's a beautiful morning. Play nice today and I will leave you alone. If not, I will run you off like I did Betty J.

Tootie said:

Well well well Spider brain/false stepanopoulos is back again -- don't you bloggers know the real one by this time ??????

razer sharpe said:

Dear Stephanopoulos or what ever else you call yourself. Sorry but no cigar, I don't know you from a hole in the wall. I don't why you mention my name on your the oct.6 10:20 am post with the others??
