Spin-Masters

Some of you might know that I'm semi-obsessed with the celebrity world. 

I pass the time by checking Usmagazine.com, eonline.com and dayoldnews.com throughout the day. I get in heated discussions about Shiloh Jolie-Pitt's cross-dressing tendencies and whether Cash Warren did make out with Lindsay Lohan (hello? You're married to Jessica Alba! Get your shit together).

But there are times that I get a little thrown by the Hollywood PR machine. I mean, there are some absolute spin masters. I think the perfect example is....

Justin Bieber. 

Who the hell is this kid? He's like 10 years old and came out of nowhere. It was like one day the world was ruled by the Jonas Brothers, and then all these screaming tweens converted and started following this Bieber kid. 

His name is all over twitter. He face is plastered all over the news shows and magazines. Girls are fainting at his concerts. And he just recorded a song with Ludacris (this is crossing the line. Child Protective Services needs to get involved at this point).

I swear his PR team just started walking around and saying, "What?! You don't know who Justin Bieber is? Wow, you must've been living in a hole for the last year." And then everyone believed them!!

These guys are masters. But I'm not jumping on the bandwagon. Maybe I'm just too old for this crap anymore. I'm not going to fawn over some guy who isn't even flirting with the puberty line.
