Jessica - How Hard Stardom Is For A Mother

The wild thrashing about of Jessica Simpson in recent times brings home a surprising fact about pop divas in the modern world. Their increased vulnerability as mothers brings them no protection against being thrashed by the media. In fact, it makes them sitting ducks.

While Jessica Dodo, the Kid from Outer Space being fed dui auto insurance the lions Heath Ledger has just dropped dead, presumably with drug involvement. Yet he clearly suffered nothing like the troubles of Jessica after he separated from the mother of his child. How much easier is life for a male idol?

I'm astounded that the public, certainly the feminist lobby, haven't stood up and loudly cried "back off and give a young mother a chance." After all, the world wants entertainers like Jessica and it wants them to give bad credit remortgage all into the bargain. But just how much is 'all'? Their children?

Massive pains have been taken in recent decades to engrave upon our minds the enormous physical, emotional and psychological drain of childbirth and mother-hood. We are also fully aware of the huge personal investment demanded from rock and movie stars. The two combined would be vastly more than the average Jessica knocker could ever hope to cope with.

We can certainly say 'if you don't like the heat stay out of the kitchen', but some of the best female talent on earth might just decide to do that.

Previous generations of women were far less likely to have their children taken from them and handed to the father. Even so, many singers delayed child-bearing, some of them auto insurance qoutes Today, seeing what has befallen Jessica Simpson, the choice is becoming clearly defined. A woman can have fame and fortune or she can have children. Trying to have both, she can wind up in a padded cell.

Can we justify thrusting that choice onto our shining stars, from whom we ask so much?
