Did anyone see the Youtube video of her dancing at a house party and calling people the N word and more? According to celebrity gossip websites, it's well-known in celebrity circles that she's a blatant racist.
Her everyday notoriety aside, she drove drunk, she violated probation twice, then cried in jail and they sent her home. If I (totally average joe) did the same, I'd have the book thrown at me.
Also, I am a totally informed, involved citizen. I work as a political organizer for progessive causes, I have dedicated my life to stopping global warming, bringing universal health care, reducing poverty, etc. I also read perezhilton (even though I think he's a moron) and laineygossip.com is the best -- so it's possible to be a tuned-in citizen and also be interested in celebrity gossip.
Although, truth be told, I wish I had a better guilty pleasure. I'm working on it -- perhaps yoga, time at the soup kitchen, teaching kids to read?
