Okay, so over here this morning the following young woman is causing quite a bit of a stir.
She initially came to the public's attention last year when it emerged that she'd had a £5000 boob job funded by the NHS because of her 'low self esteem' - in reality she later admitted that she wanted the surgery to enhace her chances of becoming a glamour model.
This caused a lot of people to become very angry because it also emerged that in the same health trust there were critically ill patients, including children, who were denied life saving or live enhancing surgery because of 'funding restrictions'
Shortly after that storm she was in the papers again because she was demanding a breast reduction, again on the NHS.
A couple of weeks ago she was back in the papers telling us all about how she'd become a prostitute and was earning money to pay back the NHS for her surgery. Then a while after that she was in the media again telling us how she was pregnant but didn't know who the father was - it could be one of her clients or a friend she 'has casual sex' with. Oh, and she's not repaying a the money because she's spent it all on baby clothes.
This morning she was plastered all over the papers here because she's announced that she's going to have an abortion to further her career. She want's to be on Big Brother and this is the only way. Oh, and she might not get topless work when pregnant.
I have to say that, while a woman has the right to chose and I'm all for that, I just can't help but think that this is so tacky and crass. A desperate bid for 'fame at any costs.'
I think what annoyed me about it too, was the way she said she was doing it for her other two kids so she could earn money and improve their lives. Surely she could get a job like everyone else?
She says she doesn''want to be famous beacause of the baby' but surely selling her story to the papers like this every step of the way is doing just that.
And do any of us really need to know the intimate details of her, or anyone's life, especially when it comes to such a personal matter?
I guess I'm just really uncomfortable with the things that people are seemingly willing to do and share in order to achieve fame.
I just can't help wondering what kids will think when they are old enough to read all this.
Thoughts?
