Mr. Britney Spears, aka Kevin Federline, said in a recent CNN article, “If you want to hate me, cool, hate me…You know why? Because all it is going to do is help me.” I never thought I would say this, but ladies and gentlemen, K-Fed is right. Stop talking about him. Stop thinking about him. Pretend like he doesn’t even exist. As long as he is getting attention, good or bad, he will be around. He will never go away. I know it is hard to do. We live in a media saturated society and it is hard to ignore anything that is given a spotlight (even if that spot light is on your partner and you are standing beside their shadow). He is not only vomiting lyrics onto our airwaves, he is appearing on shows like CSI. He has four fans people…his wife and his two children. Once the children are old enough to realize what they are having to listen to, I’m sure they will be trying to stick their legos in their ears.

In a recent epsiode of South Park, Satan hosts a My Super Sweet 16 party for himself in Hell. Guests included Biggie Smalls, Princess Diana, Hitler and Steve Irwin, among others. The phrase ‘too soon’ does not really hold much presidence with the creators of South Park, which is why so many people watch it each week on Comedy Central. Television watchdog Mediawatch (based in the UK) seems to disagree with their choice of showing Irwin on this weeks epsiode. “This is such bad taste and the makers of ‘South Park’ should review their decision to show it. Steve’s family are still grieving. To lampoon somebody’s death like that is unacceptable and so soon after the event is grossly insensitive.” You call yourself a media watch dog and you do not expect something like this from South Park? I am actually surprised they didn’t take it any farther than they did. This episode was pretty mild compared to some of their ‘shock value’ stunts in the past. South Park fans expect these things each week. Mediawatch should just grab a tissue, wipe their tears, and find someone else to pick on. It’s just like K-Fed said, “If you want to hate me, cool, hate me…You know why? Because all it is going to do is help me.”

K-Fed has been on wrestling the past 2 weeks. So, when his butt takes “the stage” I turn the channel. Just like the “monster in the closet”, if you act like it isn’t there it will go away.
