I've never been one for a lot of celebrity gossip. Sure, I watch these people on TV and in movies but I don't really get all that sloppy "down there" when it comes to their personal lives. But every now and then a "celeb" does something so utterly ridiculous that even I take notice. One of these times was when I heard that Courney Cox had her baby. Who gives a shit right? Wrong! I heard she called her precious baby girl...wait for it...Coco. That's right, Coco.
What is the fucking world coming to??? Gwyneth calls her kid Apple and now there's Courtney with Coco. How mad depressed are those kids gonna be when they grow up? Cause all kids are depressed when other kids pick on them. Even moreso when they're likely to also get a beating thrown into the bargain. Especially when it's for a totally valid reason. It's a good thing they've both got enough cash behind them to pay for therapy. They're gonna need it. Although I don't suppose I'd be too unhappy if my name was Apple if I also got a sweet porche or something for my 16th birthday (cause you know she's gonna get that shit...if only because Gwynnie and her fella are compensating for the slack-arsed name they gave her).
But you know, not only is Courtney and David's kid named after a hot drink, my sister's friend also had a dog called Coco when we were younger. It was one of those real fluffy things with the squashed up noses. Ugly motherfucker. And it was so stupid, it used to run into a pane of glass beside their front door so often that the family had to put stickers on the glass to stop it. That's right, Coco is a dog's name, not a child's! Next thing you know the celebs will be calling their kids Fluffy or Fido or some shit. Apple and Coco migh be cute names for a baby but think about it: are they cute names for a 25-year-old? A 40-year-old? How in the hell - besides being the kid of someone intensely famous - does a person with a fucked-up name like those get any kind of respect?
I'm just waiting to see how far it will go. I'm waiting for Julia Roberts to have her twins. Will she follow the Hollywood trend of "food names for babies"? What'll it be? Something normal like Daniel and Laura? Or something far out like Capsicum and Biscuit? Man, I'm also waiting to see if some queer Aussie celeb will go all out and decide to call their kid Vegemite...

"you know who is really going to be screwed up when they grow up? Michael Jackson's kid, Blanket."
Ummm...I think that being Michael Jackson's kid makes being screwed up a given...

Coco's a little cloying but it's not ridiculous.

Please tell me Jackson's kid is not really named "Blanket". I thought that was made up for that South Park episode.

-1 for failing to listen to the song by Johnny Cash called "A boy named Sue"

I'm sorry, that line just got to me.
Man...poor blanket. You know, if he doesn't get dropped off a balcony first.
