Are we really still talking about this girl? In my always very humble opinion, Courtney Stodden (or the Teen Bride as she’s likely more commonly known) is a whole new low in “famous for being famous” celebrities. As a culture, I think we’re often fascinated by things we don’t understand. I think we like to be angry and outraged and for a lot of people, 16 year old Courtney’s marriage (her husband is 51 year old actor, Doug Hutchison) has drawn so much attention for both of those reasons. We not only can’t understand why this beautiful young woman would marry a man so much older than her but also why her mother would give permission for such a thing to happen. It makes people angry. I try to keep an open mind about everything but this one is really tricky for me. Here in Malibu, Courtney actually looks happy. Maybe all the outrage is unwarranted. If she’s happy, healthy and feels good about the decisions she’d made, that’s her business. I don’t believe a girl her age is incapable of making smart decisions. When I was 16, I was more mature than many of the older people in my life. Somehow that’s changed now and at 30 I’ve the maturity of a teenager, but that’s beside the point. I just hope Courtney doesn’t look back on this time in her life one day and regret not really taking the time to be a teenager. I worry for her but I suppose it’s really none of my business. I wish her the best of luck although I think she’d have a much better chance of having a healthy and happy life if the press would turn the cameras off.

Courtney Stodden really makes me feel sick to my stomach. She’s a beautiful girl who could probably do something real with her life. Instead, at only 16 years old she’s chosen to get married to a man almost forty years older than her. I have tried really hard to stay non-judgmental about this whole thing but every time I see pictures of her out flaunting her teenage body, I get more and more skeezed out. Is there really no one in her life willing to step in here? Every picture of her is so hyper-sexualized. It’s disgusting. I guess that’s what people want though. As long as people want to see pictures like these, pictures like these will keep emerging. What an incredible shame. Even so, I have to admit they’re a step up from the Santa pictures from a few weeks back.

I know these pictures are a little old by now but honestly, I just didn’t know what to write about them. I try to be a fair, logical person. I really do. It doesn’t always work, but I at least put in the effort. When I look at these pictures though, silly things like logic and reason fly out the window and I just can’t think of anything good to say about them at all. Sure she’s hot but she’s a freaking child. Forget being married to a man old enough to literally be her father. Forget that her mother signed off on the whole mess. There is no way a girl her age (sixteen for those of you who don’t know) should be posing for pictures like these. There is just no… I can’t… my head actually hurts right now. Surely someone in that girl’s life has enough common sense to say, hey, I get that it’s Christmas but you might be taking the “ho ho ho” thing a little too seriously. This just skeezes me out. The first picture alone has me questioning what little faith I had left in humanity. The worst part? I’m writing about this girl at all. She’s now a celebrity and why? Because she married an old man and is far too willing to show off her not even fully matured body yet. Someone please do the right thing and get this girl some freaking clothes and a whole lot of help.

I don’t like Teen Mom. I don’t like anything about it. I’m not a super conservative person. In fact, I’m about as far from a super conservative person as people can get. I didn’t get the big deal about Janet Jackson’s nipple at the Super Bowl. I don’t think a performer dropping the occasional f-bomb on live TV is anything to get all worked up over. Sex and violence on television isn’t an issue for me. Teen Mom, however, really irks me. When I was a teenager, I knew a lot of teen mothers. My best friend got pregnant when she was fifteen. She was terrified to tell her guardian so I went to her doctor’s appointment with her. I saw the look on her face when the doctor told her she was pregnant. She’d been with the same guy – a guy I had been firsts with since first grade, longer than I knew her, actually – for two years. I was the one she came to when he left her because he said he was too young to be a father. More than all of that, I saw what a mess her life was after she had her baby. I can’t help thinking about that friend everything I see Farrah Abraham or any of her Teen Mom cast mates. They make it look glamorous. You know what’s missing from these pictures? Her freaking child. She’s living the dream now and why? Because she popped out a baby when she was still a baby. There are now stories hitting the news of girls that are fifteen or sixteen years old getting pregnant to get a spot on Teen Mom. Does anyone else see something wrong with that picture?

By now, most of you have heard of Courtney Stodden or, as she is more widely known, the ‘Teen Bride’. For those of you who haven’t, here’s the whole disgusting story. Doug Hutchison (“The Green Mile, Lost), 51, married Courtney Stodden, 16, a few months back after Courtney’s mother signed a consent form allowing it to happen. First, I don’t believe for a second that this woman is sixteen. She looks to be at least in her late twenties. I credit that to the layers of makeup she has on her face. When you see pictures of her without all that makeup who looks far younger. Anywho, so naturally, the press ate this story up for the first week or two. Now Doug and Courtney are sort of fading into the background so what better way to get those cameras snapping away again that to slip Courtney into the skimpiest outfit possible for a little ‘holiday shopping’. Where did they choose to do their shopping? Why at known paparazzi hang out, The Grove, of course. As if that’s not enough, Mom decided to tag along as her daughter shopped at Victoria’s Secret. This whole situation is just so insane to me. Then again, who am I to judge. Maybe Doug and Courtney are really and truly in love. I doubt it but I suppose it’s possible. After all, no one thought Demi and Ashton would last and… okay, bad example.

I like Selena Gomez. I mean, I don’t really care for her music and I haven’t seen much of her acting work, but as a person, I think she’s pretty okay. She seems to have a fairly down to earth attitude for someone her age who is as successful as she is. Here at the arrivals for the 2011 Teen Choice Awards held at the Gibson Amphitheatre, Selena looks lovely – fresh faces and adorable. What gets me about these pictures though is the dress. It’s a little more mature than what I’m used to seeing Selena wear and I definitely appreciate that. She looks more grown up – sexy even. While others may have been using those words to describe Selena before – I probably even have a time or two – it’s becoming more true every day. Little Selena
