What a girl has to do to get rich and famous
61 Answers
I'm watching Celebrity Big Brother, which I quite enjoy. One contestant is Natasha Giggs, who happily (always with a big smirk on her face) tells other housemates that she's famous for having had an 8-year affair with her brother-in-law Ryan Giggs. Until recently such a thing would have been a matter of great shame. Now, mainly because she's a quite good-looking and quite young woman, she's massively rewarded for telling her story in the tabloids, she becomes a celebrity and therefore reaps the benefits of that which includes appearances on shows like this and posing for the lads mags. In other words, she's got rich and famous from her disgraceful behaviour. Another housemate, Georgia Salpa, admits live on this show that she had a fling with Callum Best. "Obviously I shagged him" she announced proudly. She looks gorgeous, so she's now one of Ireland's top lingerie models, and after appearing on this will no doubt be inundated with big-money offers to do this n that...probably til her looks fade. What on earth does it say about today's society - and more importantly tell today's young girls - that being a looker and sh*gging celebs is the path to becoming a celeb yourself, with more money than you could dream of?

Yes, Camilla is public enemy no 1 isn`t she? Why isn`t Prince Charles though? Maybe because he is a man? Likewise the woman (or women) who slept with Ryan Giggs. They are slappers but he is not. Strange. Men can sh@g around but women can`t. It never changes does it? The most interesting point is that it is women who condemn other women. Any ideas why?

Mosaic, that is a very interesting point. It is truly extraordinaryhow, with some very clever and subtle PR work, Camilla has gone from being Public Enemy No.1 to perfectly acceptable. Yet she got where she is by having an affair with the Prince Of Wales while he was married to the most famous woman on the planet.

It's the old double standards girls. Boys will be boys and girls might want to have fun but it is frowned upon when they do. Though it would seem that it doesn't matter whether or not the guy the girlshas her eye upon is married or with someone they see him, they want him So much for sisterhood! Or am I just being cynical?
Women condemn women because a woman could always say no, they are the childbearers and the home makers. Now they want multiple lovers and degrade themselves by boasting who they have been with. Any decent man wouldn't or shouldn't entertain them. As for Camilla and Charles they look happy together, if only they would do the decent thing and disappear to France like his Uncle Edward and Wallace Simpson did.
