Suddenly, Candy Spelling is a Journalist  
Monday, November 19th, 2007

Candy Spelling wrote an article for The Huffington Post, which I regularly read, and it shocked the toxins out of me.  Not the writing, just the fact that Tori Spelling's mother (and the late Aaron Spelling's wife) is suddenly a journalist.  But, equally shockingly, I agree with her.  What does she want to tell you?  Leave Britney alone!

"Enough," Candy wrote.  "It's time to leave this girl alone.  She didn't run over the feet of two paparazzi or one sheriff's deputy on purpose."  Agreed - they swarm over her like the documentary I just saw on Killer Ants - they ooze into a chicken coop and leave only beaks and bones.  If you've seen any video of the paparazzi when Britney Spears goes somewhere - it is no less suffocating.

"I've seen 'breaking news' of her driving on many networks, and I don't think her aim is that good."  Again - go Candy!  I pick through news throughout the day, and it is sickening how many articles and videos I find of Spears running daily errands.  WTF?  That's not news!

"Personally," Candy says, "I don't think Britney is that fascinating, and she and her sons don't look that different in photos taken five seconds or five days apart."

That's what I find myself constantly wondering about...there's no news in it.  It's a vulture parade on a woman and family whose lives have been broken apart - it's Anna Nicole-esque and we don't like it one bit.  You're no angel, Candy - but good article.

I now see that it's not the first time Candy has taken pen to paper to discuss her issues over a celebrity:  she wrote an open letter to Paris Hilton entitled "It's time to get real," which 88% of readers thought was sound advice.
