A few months ago, a pregnant Anna Nicole Smith, filmed a video that was intended to be sent to Britney Spears. In the video Anna stated that she wanted to hang out with Britney sometime. With all the recent publicity swarming Anna Nicole and Britney Spears,(I don't want to sound like some sort of a conspiracy theorist), but something is just not right about all of this. Anna dies suddenly, Britney is bald and in rehab, and the media is eating all of this up. What a strange order of events. Why would Anna Nicole film a video? Why wouldn't Anna find Britney's number and call her. A phone call most likely wouldn't be recorded for anyone else to hear. Any video that a celebrity films these days gets leaked to the media. Anna obviously wanted other people to see this. But why? Why do these celebrities claim that they don't want to be the center of the media's attention, yet they are basically throwing themselves at it? Britney was definitely trying to get attention by shaving her head, but why did she want that attention when she claims that the media attention is ruining her life? I don’t think the media would have ever given her good attention for an act like that.
Back to my media conspiracy theory; why does no one know the cause of Anna's death yet; why does no one know who the father is? How is it taking so long to investigate and come up with a conclusion? Why are people so interested in the first place? I feel like the investigation is being prolonged, due to the fact that the longer questions go unanswered, the longer people will ask. The more people ask the more publicity is generated. I have found myself in front of the TV almost everyday just waiting to hear the latest news about Anna. It saddens me that a celebrity that I cared nothing about has had an impact on my day, because I want to hear the latest drama. It is so shocking how the media can just reach through the TV set and grabs a viewer, and makes them care about something that has no impact on their life. The same goes for Britney Spears; the media has thrived off of her problems, most likely being the source of her problems, and now she is in rehab, as an escape from the media. Now that there has been a link between Britney and Anna, through the video, the media has jumped right on board with this story.
It seems twisted that the celebrities have so many problems with media exposure, yet they throw themselves at it. It is also twisted that the media can make a stupid meaningless issue into an important issue. There is no escape from the media in our lives, maybe we all need to be like Britney and go to rehab.
