Goodbyes…

Hey Universe,

These last couple of days have been a blur and it still is, as much as you try and ACT and be all accepting of the fact that a big chunk of your professional life will suddenly come to an end, you have no choice but to concede to the idea that nothing is permanent in this world, that’s not being pessimistic, that’s being realistic.

I played the blame game for a good hour or two but this image of Molly Shannon saying these lines to Megan Mullaly aka Karen Walker (on one of best shows on TV ever written!!!) kept popping in my head , you know what I’m talking about… see for yourself

I have come to terms that it’s going to be okay, it should and it will.

Sending this blurb out to the universe to let you know that I am okay, do not worry about me.  I am not at my happiest right now but this is not the shittiest moment of my life.

Will keep you posted.

Kristen Stewart Admits Adultery and Cheating on Boyfriend Robert Pattinson

Oh hell no!

I am still in shock with the revelation that Kristen Stewart allegedly cheated on poor Robert Pattinson with her married Snow White and the Huntsman director, Rupert Sanders.

People reports that Kristen, 22, had a “brief fling” with Rupert Sanders the married director of her recent film Snow White and the Huntsman. “Kristen is absolutely devastated,” a source tells the magazine. “It was a mistake and a complete lapse in judgement.”

“She wasn’t having an affair with Rupert,” the source continues. “It was just a fleeting moment that shouldn’t have happened. She never meant to hurt anyone. She’s a good person who just made a bad choice.”

In a separate report, Us Weekly claims the encounter happened July 17 in Los Angeles. According to the magazine, the two were caught by photographers during a “marathon make out session.” One eyewitness even tells the magazine, “It seemed like they couldn’t get enough. … Kristen was sitting with her back up against the driver’s-side window [of her black Mini Cooper] and the guy was kissing her entire body.”

Rob has been very vocal about how he’s against cheating,

There is one thing I’ve never understood: why people cheat,” he said. “My parents met when my mom was 17 and my father 25; they are still together and seem very happy. I grew up believing that you can be together all of your life.”

Poor poor Rob,

As far as we know, they are already working on the part 2 of the Snow White And The Huntsman film, so this controversy might drag on for bit longer than we expected.

Just a day after photos of Kristen Stewart’s steamy affair with director Rupert printed, a statement was released by Stewart’s camp:

Her statement reads:

“I’m deeply sorry for the hurt and embarrassment I’ve caused to those close to me and everyone this has affected. This momentary indiscretion has jeopardized the most important thing in my life, the person I love and respect the most, Rob. I love him, I love him, I’m so sorry.”

No report response yet from Pattinson’s camp.

The Silver Fox Comes Out Of The Closet

 

The TV host and reporter came out to the Daily Beast’s Andrew Sullivan in an email posted to Sullivan,who posted it on his Daily Beast blog on Monday. and within three hours, the post had 100,000 shares on Facebook.

Sullivan, who is also gay, had asked Cooper for his thoughts on the growing trend of public figures coming out of the closet in a more subdued manner. “We’re evolved enough not to be gob-smacked when we find out someone’s gay,” Sullivan wrote before pasting Cooper’s email.

Cooper responded with an open email.

“Even though my job puts me in the public eye, I have tried to maintain some level of privacy in my life,” Cooper’s email reads in part.

“It’s become clear to me that by remaining silent on certain aspects of my personal life for so long, I have given some the mistaken impression that I am trying to hide something — something that makes me uncomfortable, ashamed or even afraid. This is distressing because it is simply not true.”

Anderson Hays Cooper (born June 3, 1967) is an American journalist, author, and television personality. He is the primary anchor of the CNN news show Anderson Cooper 360°.   The 45-year-old host and the daytime talk show Anderson goes on to write: “The fact is, I’m gay, always have been, always will be, and I couldn’t be any more happy, comfortable with myself, and proud.”

 

Below is Anderson Cooper’s email to Andrew Sullivan with his blessings to post on his website,

Andrew, as you know, the issue you raise is one that I’ve thought about for years. Even though my job puts me in the public eye, I have tried to maintain some level of privacy in my life. Part of that has been for purely personal reasons. I think most people want some privacy for themselves and the people they are close to.

But I’ve also wanted to retain some privacy for professional reasons. Since I started as a reporter in war zones 20 years ago, I’ve often found myself in some very dangerous places. For my safety and the safety of those I work with, I try to blend in as much as possible, and prefer to stick to my job of telling other people’s stories, and not my own. I have found that sometimes the less an interview subject knows about me, the better I can safely and effectively do my job as a journalist.

I’ve always believed that who a reporter votes for, what religion they are, who they love, should not be something they have to discuss publicly. As long as a journalist shows fairness and honesty in his or her work, their private life shouldn’t matter. I’ve stuck to those principles for my entire professional career, even when I’ve been directly 12039_084asked “the gay question,” which happens occasionally. I did not address my sexual orientation in the memoir I wrote several years ago because it was a book focused on war, disasters, loss and survival. I didn’t set out to write about other aspects of my life.

Recently, however, I’ve begun to consider whether the unintended outcomes of maintaining my privacy outweigh personal and professional principle. It’s become clear to me that by remaining silent on certain aspects of my personal life for so long, I have given some the mistaken impression that I am trying to hide something – something that makes me uncomfortable, ashamed or even afraid. This is distressing because it is simply not true.

I’ve also been reminded recently that while as a society we are moving toward greater inclusion and equality for all people, the tide of history only advances when people make themselves fully visible. There continue to be far too many incidences of bullying of young people, as well as discrimination and violence against people of all ages, based on their sexual orientation, and I believe there is value in making clear where I stand.

The fact is, I’m gay, always have been, always will be, and I couldn’t be any more happy, comfortable with myself, and proud.

I have always been very open and honest about this part of my life with my friends, my family, and my colleagues. In a perfect world, I don’t think it’s anyone else’s business, but I do think there is value in standing up and being counted. I’m not an activist, but I am a human being and I don’t give that up by being a journalist.

Since my early days as a reporter, I have worked hard to accurately and fairly portray 19447_001_1563_CCgay and lesbian people in the media – and to fairly and accurately portray those who for whatever reason disapprove of them. It is not part of my job to push an agenda, but rather to be relentlessly honest in everything I see, say and do. I’ve never wanted to be any kind of reporter other than a good one, and I do not desire to promote any cause other than the truth.

Being a journalist, traveling to remote places, trying to understand people from all walks of life, telling their stories, has been the greatest joy of my professional career, and I hope to continue doing it for a long time to come. But while I feel very blessed to have had so many opportunities as a journalist, I am also blessed far beyond having a great career.

I love, and I am loved.

In my opinion, the ability to love another person is one of God’s greatest gifts, and I thank God every day for enabling me to give and share love with the people in my life. I appreciate your asking me to weigh in on this, and I would be happy for you to share my thoughts with your readers. I still consider myself a reserved person and I hope this doesn’t mean an end to a small amount of personal space. But I do think visibility is important, more important than preserving my reporter’s shield of privacy.
