Celebrity Art is Shit

I have, on occasion, waxed lyrical about the idiocy of the residents of the strange world of Hollywoodland. These residents, who look like people but aren't, often do and say things that make us, real world people, cringe.

The latest example is from an article I read (here) at SMH. And it goes like this:
  1. Tom Cruise and Katie Holmes have a baby.
  2. They name the baby Suri.
  3. Some guy makes a bronze cast of Suri's first shit. Yes shit. Yes. Really. I know!
  4. The bronze shit is mounted with a plaque that reads "First Poop" and displayed at the Capla Kesting gallery in Brooklyn.

I'm going to repeat it again, because it's that freaky: bronze shit.

I was chatting with a friend just yesterday, about Tom Cruise. I was articulating my amazement that of all the celebrites likely to go loopy Michael Jackson style, I never would have guessed Top-Gun-Tom-Cruise (not OUR Tom Cruise!) My friend said words to the effect of, "come on, he's not that bad."

Well to him today I say this: BRONZE SHIT.

Bronze shit.

And people wonder why I have problems with Jeff Koons' so-called art.

Incidentally, the phrase "more doodoo than Dada" is priceless, IMO.
