07/02/2008: "Weekend Eye Candy - Patriotic Fluff Edition"
)
I'm off to fish the next few days, so that means no entries for Thursday and Friday. Of course, it also means extra time to stare at our Weekend Eye Candy.
Heidi Montag is, in my opinion, a perfect example of what's wrong with America. Fake smile, fake tits, and barely a brain in her head; nevertheless, she's well on her way to being rich and famous. And why? Because she's part of MTV's pseudo-reality show "The Hills". Like most "reality" shows, it's part drooling voyeurism, part scripted drama, and all manipulation - and it totally sucks in the stupid crowd. Riding a wave of unearned popularity, she's hyping clothes, trying her hand at acting and singing, and attending every event where there's even a chance to be seen - and calling the paparazzi to where they are if they don't see any. It's the classic case of flinging things at the wall to see what sticks, and then following whatever path seems the most profitable. Not exactly a lifestyle to be proud of ...
That said, she's got the bangin' body, and was good enough to stage a "candid" moment at the beach while wearing a stars and stripes bikini. I guess that's enough to forgive her for the moment, and make her our Weekend Eye Candy ...

DOUBLE YOUR PUBLICITY WHORE UPDATE: I'm going to include this new shot of Marla Maples, last week's Eye Candy, because it does such a good job of proving my point:
1) The shot was obviously taken at the same time as the one last week (same bikini, or she's too broke to buy another), but they waited to release it to the press until today to get maximum publicity. That part apparently worked ...
2) This is where Heidi Montag is gonna be in 15 years, sans The Donald's cash. Girl, you got soooo much to look forward to ...
It's no wonder the rest of the world hates us when the press spends as much time (or more) focused on crap like this ... and Brangelina's due date ... than they do on global warming or world peace.
On the bright side, it's good to see Marla looks as good upright as she did upside down. Says something for Pilates and plastic surgery ... although I'm not entirely sure what ...
What the hell - double your Independance Day Eye Candy. What could be more American than that? 
A true Patriot. Yeah
