What a sad, sordid and crazy world we live in. A world where many (not me I hasten to add!) hero worship society’s misfits, junkies and deviant sexual personalities.
Let’s just take a run through some of the latest “personalities” who spring to mind – having been in the news recently.
Jade Goody, who was married to what can only be termed a junkie, Jack Tweed, and who is at present accused of raping a teenage girl.
Amy Winehouse, a known drug addict, who divorced her husband Blake Civil-Fielder, who is a known junkie and drug dealer.
Matt Lucas (of Little Britain fame) whose ex “partner” Kevin McGee committed suicide, and left a message on Facebook which stated: “Kevin McGee thinks that death is much better than life”.
Michael Jackson, who died of a drug overdose, and had been hauled before the courts because of his strange beliefs about sleeping with children – although he was later acquitted.
Katie Price (aka Jordan) who after her acrimonious split with Peter Andre has taken up with cage fighter and former Hollyoaks actor Alex Reid. (Who, according to one tabloid is a cross dresser and has dated Ladyboys in Thailand.)
And now – Stephen Gately. Once again the mass hysteria hits the headlines. I appreciate that it is sad when anyone dies, but when I read some of the “over the top” comments it really makes my blood boil.
This man was a human being NOT A SAINT.
On Friday Jan Moir wrote an article in the Daily Mail in which she stated:
"Healthy and fit 33-year-old men do not just climb into their pyjamas and go to sleep on the sofa, never to wake up again. Whatever the cause of death is, it is not, by any yardstick, a natural one."
"For once again, under the carapace of glittering, hedonistic celebrity, the ooze of a very different and more dangerous lifestyle has seeped out for all to see."
Gately was found dead in a Majorca apartment last weekend. Post mortem examination results show he died from pulmonary oedema, or a build-up of fluid in the lungs.
Jan has been lambasted by the members of the “Pink Fraternity” for her comments.
Why?
My wife, who is a nurse, had previously predicted that Stephen Gately would have died of fluid in the lungs, as a result of inhaling his own vomit.
As I said at the start of this article - What a sad, sordid and crazy world we live in.
