So today was the day Michael Jackson's doctor was to be charged with involuntary manslaughter. Didn't happen but look for it to happen soon. I'm all for celebrity doctors being penalized for basically peddling drugs but we don't want to overlook the bigger issue here. Dr. Conrad Murray did not force MJ to inject huge doses of drugs. Matter of fact if Dr. Murray didn't give drugs to MJ, some other doctor would. We need to stop giving these celebrities who die of drug overdoses free passes. It was not the doctor's fault, it was their fault! From Heath Ledger, to Anna Nicole Smith, Michael Jackson and Brittney Murphy...the celebrities need to be held accountable, not the doctors. What we need to do is stop putting these celebs on pedestals where we believe they can do no wrong. Remember when YOU were ultimately responsible for YOUR own actions??? I guess that's still case, UNLESS you a celeb who happens to overdose on drugs.

Just a quick thought on Beyonce winning way too many Grammys this past weekend. First of all we all know the best song of 2009 was the Black Eyed Peas "I Gotta Feeling". Hands down, no questions asked. Second, she won some sort of songwriting Grammy when it is well known in the music industry that her writing music is the biggest fraud since the Gyllenhall's being considered good actors. Her manager (daddy) pays the legit songwriters to include her name on the songwriting credits. She receives extra money (like she needs it) and receives accolades she doesn't deserve. I just hope in 2010 she doesn't have a song as annoying as "Single Ladies".
