Guest Posted July 19, 2006 Posted July 19, 2006 How do people like Jennifer Aniston and Nicole Kidman cope with having to see their former spouses in the media all the time happily marrying and having children with other people? Are some people so spoiled that they can never be happy with what they have? Perhaps some of our exes possess some of these same qualities where they are never really happy and are always seeking more. At least we don't have to see our exes on tv and magazines.
Buttaflyy Posted July 19, 2006 Posted July 19, 2006 True! I've thought about how this must suck for them. Especially Jennifer Anniston.
Citizen Erased Posted July 19, 2006 Posted July 19, 2006 Well Jennifer is with Vince Vaughn, who actually has a personality and is not there just to look pretty and Nicole just married the VERY sexy Keith Urban whilst her ex husband is slowly going deeper in insanity. I think they are both lucky but they just went for complete idiots at first and have now improved in their taste.

I unconditionally guarantee that the personal lives of famous people are no more dramatic than those of just plain folks. Most show business people don't read the tabloids where, at least, you know it's a bunch of BS. In real life, the rumors and here-say can suck big time.
toonicegirl Posted July 20, 2006 Posted July 20, 2006 well..when you got a lot of money and you can leave a country for a month to just travel or shop...i think it's easier to cope
superconductor Posted July 20, 2006 Posted July 20, 2006 For every pretty face and cute body on a magazine or movie screen, there's a guy at home who's just sick and tired of her shiit.
alphamale Posted July 20, 2006 Posted July 20, 2006 How do people like Jennifer Aniston and Nicole Kidman cope with having to see their former spouses in the media all the time happily marrying and having children with other people? I'm sure that making $10 million per picture helps to ease the pain...
KittenMoon Posted July 20, 2006 Posted July 20, 2006 Billy Bob Thorton once made a comment about celebs being no different in the sack than normal people- he said beautiful or not sometimes it was still "like humping a couch." And that was about ANGELINA!!! CMon, we ALL want to do Angelina.... and Brad... preferably at the same time.... >swoon<
norajane Posted July 20, 2006 Posted July 20, 2006 Hmm, what does that even mean, humping a couch? Is he saying Angelina just lies there?
In Sync Posted July 20, 2006 Posted July 20, 2006 How do people like Jennifer Aniston and Nicole Kidman cope with having to see their former spouses in the media all the time happily marrying and having children with other people? Are some people so spoiled that they can never be happy with what they have? Perhaps some of our exes possess some of these same qualities where they are never really happy and are always seeking more. At least we don't have to see our exes on tv and magazines. Well it sort of shows us how there's no guarantees when it comes to relationships. You are judging from the outside....just because someone is good looking on the outside doesn't mean they aren't screwed up mentally on the inside. Not for nothing, how do you know that Jennifer, Nicole or Angelina or Christie might have been pain in the asses to their former spouses. No one ever knows what goes on behind closed doors.....
Outcast Posted July 20, 2006 Posted July 20, 2006 Oh, no, In Sync. It's only the beautiful and handsome people who are nice or kind or loving. Regular people can't possibly measure up to the wonder that is a Jennifer, a Nicole, or a whoever-else-it was. For the record, both Angelina and Brad bore me to bits. I'm glad they're doing good things with their masses of money, at least. But even philanthropists can be hell to live with.
Buttaflyy Posted July 20, 2006 Posted July 20, 2006 I think it's more about a public break-up than the cause of the break-up. No matter what, we all know that break-ups are hard. You guys here are steady talking NC to help the heartache. Imagine if this was impossible and you see your ex everywhere! Publicly getting over you! Remarrying, talking trash about you, moving on! My space....puhleeeze!
quankanne Posted July 20, 2006 Posted July 20, 2006 I think those relationships you've mentioned didn't last because it was a mismatch of either personality or goals. Sure Brad and Jen looked cute together, but they were such different people that they appeared incompatible; her and the current honey actually seem well-matched because he seems like the same kind of down-to-earth person that she is. Kidman married a kook the first time around, and I think she realized that. The man she recently married seems to have a lot of the same values, and therefore have a better basis for a lasting relationship/marriage. as for Christie ... four husbands ... I'm beginning to wonder if these men aren't marrying her because she's some sort of trophy to them, even if they do have feelings for her.
KittenMoon Posted July 20, 2006 Posted July 20, 2006 Also consider the daily stress celebrities are under- if the average person were under so much stress all the time they'd probably go through far more personality changes/evolutions/etc than "normal". And I'm sure that plays a huge part in their personal relationships.
Brittanyjean06 Posted July 20, 2006 Posted July 20, 2006 I think their so used to having all this money that even with the most money that woulden't be able to cure their heartache . It would only make it worst by buying things or getting away to ingore the problem. And having to listen to the tabloids would be horrible and see how happy their ex's are. I always think about that and if jennifer can do it, I'm sure we all can to:) ha ha
bendit Posted July 20, 2006 Posted July 20, 2006 they are human first, and Celebrities second. we're all the same. some of us were just meant for RADIO. regards
Mz. Pixie Posted July 20, 2006 Posted July 20, 2006 they are human first, and Celebrities second. we're all the same. some of us were just meant for RADIO. regards Amen. While I could live with the money- I wouldn't want to have that life. Depending on what kind of star you are. Because people are NUTS. You can't live a normal life- not because you're too stuck up to interact with the regular people. Lots of times, that person doesn't change- but the money changes the people around them. While they may WANT to do their own grocery shopping it's often not feasible to do so- unless you're in LA- where celebs are a common thing. Because they go to the store- and they can't get down the aisle! I have someone in my family married to a celeb. It's been hard on him over the years to live a normal life. I couldn't imagine some of the things he's been through. No matter how much money you have- if you had issues as a kid- it's still there. If you have drug or alcohol problems it's still there. It doesn't buy happiness. It will buy alot of trips, jewelry, homes and cars but not happiness of a real lasting kind. Their relationships are subject to more influences too. Where a normal guy isn't handed a girls panties or phone number every time they walk down the street these guys can be. They can also be sniffed out at their hotel and come into their room to find someone in housekeeping has bribed someone in the hotel and let someone in their room- with their things etc. Same thing goes for women too. I think it's easier for them to be in relationships with stars as well. Because if you're just a regular girl and your boyfriend is someone famous- you have to be extremely secure. Their relationships have the same pitfalls as anyone else's. No matter how gorgeous, rich or famous they are. It just doesn't seem so to us because we put them up above us in some ways. Yet, we're all just human.
cubbbb Posted July 20, 2006 Posted July 20, 2006 Most celebrities don't marry or get in relationships for love, and half the time its all a sham. (lisa marie pressley/Michael Jackson), (Janet Jackson/Justin Timberlake) Come on now! LOL.. They usually have motives for hooking up with eachother to help someones fading career out. The all date eachother in one big celebrity orgy pretty much. Pretty gross, if you ask me. There are exceptions, i'm just thinking in general.

The all date eachother in one big celebrity orgy pretty much. Pretty gross, if you ask me. There are exceptions, i'm just thinking in general. I think it might be a little harder for a celeb to hook up with "normal folk". Ppl tend to date within their own circles. Sometimes it is a publicity stunt, sometimes it isn't. Janet once said that she couldn't get a date because regular guys were intimidated by her and didn't approach her seriously. Also, someone famous has a lot to consider about meeting/dating some one plain off the street. How do you know what their true interests in you are? BTW, I missed the Janet/JT hook up. And look who she's with now.
Outcast Posted July 21, 2006 Posted July 21, 2006 I have someone in my family married to a celeb. It's been hard on him over the years to live a normal life. I couldn't imagine some of the things he's been through. Your brother is Bobby Brown? Imagine getting stalked! Not being able to do one dang thing without someone watching you. I don't think there's enough money on the planet to make up for not having your own life.
Mz. Pixie Posted July 21, 2006 Posted July 21, 2006 Your brother is Bobby Brown? Imagine getting stalked! Not being able to do one dang thing without someone watching you. I don't think there's enough money on the planet to make up for not having your own life. No, it's not THAT close of a relative! And it's definitely not Bobby Brown. But it is someone in the music biz. I disagree with the poster that most celebs do not get married for love. I definitely do think they fall in love- it's just harder to keep it together!! Michael Jackson and Lisa Marie is a extreme example. And for whoever posted about Janet Jackson and JT. She's been with that Jermaine Dupree guy for YEARS. She may have had a break and been with JT- but JD has been her main man for years.

alphamale Posted July 21, 2006 Posted July 21, 2006 Lots of times, that person doesn't change- but the money changes the people around them. no MzP, many times the people themselves change also especially if they came into fame and wealth at a young age (which is common with celebs)... many people don't really mature until their 30's and you've got 23 yr old celebs running around making millions and they are still kids. While they may WANT to do their own grocery shopping it's often not feasible to do so- unless you're in LA- where celebs are a common thing. Because they go to the store- and they can't get down the aisle! That's really not true MzP. See, the A-list celebs make $$$ and usually live in exclusive enclaves which cater to the rich and famous. They have their own little world where few people bother them because all their neighbors are rich and famous. The only time these celebs have to deal with fans and mobs is when they go to the In 'n Out Burger in the middle-class part of town. You know? And the other thing is that when you go into that career and become well known/rich/famous then you have given up your right to a private life. I mean....many of these celebs are full of ****. They don't work that hard, they make millions, and then they want a private life also.
Woggle Posted July 21, 2006 Posted July 21, 2006 I would leave Jennifer for Angelina as well. Jenn seems very boring. Nicole is lucky as hell also because Tom Cruise is a loony toon.
