Let the poor soul RIP

I usually dont give much importance into hollywood celebreity headlines, but the last three weeks, two incidents managed to grab my attention a lot and disturbed me quite.

The first one was the legal battle on Nicole Smiths baby and her fortune. I admit that Nicole smith did not have one of the planned life styles and probably made tons of mistakes when she was alive, but the media should give it a rest atleast when she is dead. The boyfriends, her estranged mother and late night show hosts all make trying to make the most out of this. The attrocious thing here is that her body is still being kept from being given a proper funeral. How bad can this get ? And where is the poor baby of hers, who doesnt know what is happening around her or where her mother is. Sometimes I feel that the media in this country play too much role in peoples lives and most of the time on the negative side. I am a fan of Jay Leno but his jokes on Nicole Smith is becoming unbearable day by day. Jay..please wake up. You can do better than that. You have tons of people alive, to make fun of.

The other one is the papparazzi and media craziness over Britney Spears head shaving episodes and the various stints in the rehab. Again, the frenzy over someones personal life however public figure they are, is simply disgusting. Why do we become so involved in someones life even when they are not going through their best of the times ? Shouldn't the media give them the space during these times, let them come back from their woes and then do all to point and shoots ?
