Speed 3: A Curse Accelerated.
On Monday news of Kate Winslet’s split from her husband Sam Mendes surfaced and a friend, Liana, drew my attention to the supposed curse of the Best Actress Academy Award. Before I could find the time to further Google this conspiracy theory, Sandra Bullock was blindsided by her husband Jesse James’ infidelity and People magazine confirmed her exodus from their Southern California family home. Winslet’s heart went on for a whole year after her victory, but Bullock made it less than two weeks, leaving Helen Mirren as the only woman of the last decade to have maintained the relationship she was in at the time Oscar made three.
Superstitious or otherwise, the greater intrigue is whether or not opposites can uphold the adage and nurture an attraction. Paula Abdul may be so whacked out she’s still coming together with MC Skat Kat. Woody Harrelson has an Asian wife. And for all we know the most divergent aspect of Bullock and James’ union, for each aforementioned union, could be their outward appearances. But there in lies the conundrum an’it don’t seem tah wanna budge.
Sandy’s sorrows aside, what does this mean for me with my explorative sexual palate? Are the rakishly ratty denizens of Silver Lake a lost cause? What about West Hollywood’s most chic and chiseled? The athletes? The academics? The occasional bear or business-minded boi? Oy gay, WHAT – is a hippie homo to do?
Rage on,
rage on hard on.
While a condom,
I hope not,
a heart can stand to be broken.
But fool me,
fool me once,
and
FUCKYOUGETOUTOFMYLIFE!
