APPENDIX
WOE IS ME, I’M A CELEBRITY
The Cele-Bratty Edition
Over twenty years ago, I wrote Thou Shalt Not Whine: The Eleventh Commandment.
And I discovered something very important.
Apparently, being rich, gorgeous, successful, and internationally famous…
does NOT cure whining.
Who knew?
You would think celebrities were the luckiest people in the world.
They have money.
They have houses.
They have assistants.
They have personal trainers.
They have people whose only job is to make sure their hair doesn't move.
And yet some of them still manage to wake up in the morning and say:
“Woe is me.”
Excuse me?
"Woe is you?"
Try flying coach sometime.

There are two kinds of celebrity whining.

Some people have actually turned complaining into entertainment.
They complain about politics.
Traffic.

Except they get paid for it.
