Pop culture: Celebrity: Tom Cruise and Brad Pitt again, and again, and again and dangnabit! again

With the avalanche of fake news about celebrittles, we are introduced to the corresponding phenom of celebrobotism where the poor actors, the very rich poor actors, have to act everywhere at every moment about everything, even their fake romances. This is the conclusion that is rippling out from Tom Cruise's historionics not so long ago on Oprah's show. He sounds as tho he were on some drug at the time, or just plain stark fake, fake, fakin' it about this overwrawt new connection with whatshername. The public gets evermore skeptical about such actors - their romances, their religion, their politics, and whether they actually exist or not, since they are simple similitudes of scriptwriters/producers twisted imaginoria. We're getting more and more movies over-hyped and under-viewed by a movie-going audience that is shrinking as fast as mainline churches that now offer only a puddle in place of the Gospel. I'm always on the lookout for a good narrative, and I don't like actors so hackneyed in their authenticity that their very presence detracts from a good narrative flick, film, cinematic artwork. Tom and Brad have both slipped into that category. If they really want to get the audience, they should divorce their present romances (no matter whether they're reallty married or not) and, yes, go to a jurisdiction where they can marry one another. Tip off the press, and emerge to the poppin' paparazzi. It doesn't matter what their actual feelings are, how they regard one another, or what sexuality they prefer. They're just playing games and weddings and divorces, and they would improve their aging reputations if they would stop abusing now one woman and then another, and reciprocally abuse themselves instead. There's a marginal authenticity in the idea, as their AQs at present are as close to the bottom of the scale as they can go. They are jokes, bad jokes, not supremely bad jokes, just mediocre bad jokes, completely in accord with their acting. - Owlb
