Parenting, The New Black
Genuine | July 14I have been recently discussing Celebrity Dads on my blog. Not the typical look at Dads like Brad Pitt, Tom Cruise, or the rest of what I’m coining “Fad Dads”, but people you may not think of as fathers. It seems that parenting is the next big thing in Hollywood. Celebrities are now all wanting to be the next one to get pregnant or adopt a child. Don’t get me wrong, I know everyone should have the right to be a parent, but I hope that they are doing it for the right reasons. It seems to me that right now you have publicists everywhere hoping that their celebrity client’s slip one by the goalie so that People Magazine can do a photo shoot of that darling bundle of joy.
Standing in the checkout lane at the local grocery store, you can hardly see any publication without a picture of celebrities and their babies, or in the case of Tom and Katie, no pictures. My own thought is that Tom Cruise put Suri on the spaceship. Is the media frenzy driving the birthing of these celebrity children? I hope not. The media seems to be caught up in bump watching these days and if you are not pregnant, chances are the Paparazzi is not standing on your doorstep, or if they are, you better run out and get that pregnancy test at the drug store.
Is parenting the new black?
