Simpletons

I was pretty appalled to learn that Paris Hilton and Nicole Richie were going to be counselors at a fat camp in the next season of The Simple Life. There are just so many things wrong with that. One of the first thing that comes to my mind is poking fun at the poor overweight kids who are there. Paris and Nicole and the camera crews that follow them around don't seem to be the most sensitive folks.

My fears were confirmed with the ad for the show I just saw on E. The head of the camp said that every counselor had to participate in giving the kids a colonic. So the scene is of Paris looking on, horrified, as Nicole, looking horrified herself, faces the rear end of a very large teenage boy and then you see his face as he groans and there's some sort of cartoon sound effect to go along with it.

Ha ha ha, let's laugh at the fat kid getting the colonic. Grrrr!

I haven't seen this ad, but the thoughts of it makes me sick to my stomach. Shame on the camp for allowing those two twits into a place where kids are trying desparately to change their health and their lives. I've never watched The Simple Life before, and I can say for sure now that I never will. Seriously - that's just messed up.

Okay, first of all -- WHY are they giving kids colonics at fat camp??? That seems... wrong.

Secondly -- I am now even more glad than ever that I started boycotting that show after how DISGUSTINGLY they behaved in the first season... I find this morally reprehensible, and just more foddor for spoiled, whiny, entitled bitches to make fun of others whose lives haven't been handed to them on a silver platter.

I hope Paris stays in Jail for a long, long time.
