Courtney Stodden takes over from Jessica Black




We all knew it was just a matter of time before the limelight was taken from Jessica Black. Attention craving people who are told by "friends" they are the next "Big Thing" sometimes truly believe what they hear.




And now, it is so easy to generate these dispensable shooting stars. They shine and fizzle in the time it takes for a Weiner to leave the front page of serious papers like the Washington Post.

Thankfully, the public has not got to put up with them for long. They get voted up or down on a minute by minute basis. Apparently the lowest point yet has been the Jessica Black "Friday" song and Youtube "hit". It even got featured on the Colbert Show with a cameo appearance by Taylor Hicks and the band The Roots!

Much to astonishment of those who have no idea what havoc the wrong kind of publicity can generate, Ms Black pulled down the offensive video and is now MIA.



No sooner had the lights turned out than another wanna-be star shows up. Her claim to fame - she and her Mom claim that she is 16 and married to a 51 year-old B rated movie actor. Folks, we are in for another rough ride and this time around, I hope Courtney Stodden, her parents, and hubby will be kind enough to pull down the offensive video faster and not make the whole Youtubeverse suffer for days on end a-la-Weiner.
