Beyotch

I'm watching Slice (as always) and there is a super b*tchy girl getting married. In a 10-minute span, she was extremely rude to her fiancée's friends and denied him hanging out with them, yelled at her fiancée and his parents, and tried to force her friends to buy bridesmaid dresses that were 3X the price they'd been quoted. Honestly, I cannot imagine why a guy would ever marry someone like this.
I'll give her the benefit of the doubt and say that maybe throughout their courtship she was cute and friendly, and that this demanding, controlling, difficult side came out during the wedding planning process. If that's the case though, who would want to commit to a life with someone like that? What happens the next time a stressful event is nearing? Or when she gets a bad review at work? Or if someone in the family falls ill? It's doubtful that she'd handle those things with compassion and kindness after what she's displayed here.
This girl is pretty, but definitely not so attractive that her looks even come close to making up for her terrible personality. I wonder if this guy finally saw what his friends and family must have seen all along when he watched this episode (post-wedding). Unfortunately for him by that point he would have been well into his first year of wedding "bliss".

SOS

Last week I watched an episode of my favourite wedding show, Wedding SOS where the bride's main goal was to keep her groom from straying before the wedding. I'm pretty sure if your main focus prior to your wedding day is not flowers, decorations, vows or the reception but your groom cheating or not showing up - there's a problem!
In this case the groom did not stray (probably because he was under 24-hour surveillance) but I'm wondering what their marriage is going to be like. I am not married, but I think I'm correct in believing that trust and commitment do not automatically occur once the vows are recited. I also don't think I'm wrong in assuming that their marriage will be one filled with worried stomach aches and horrible scenario building...at least for the wife.

ANTM

So I'm medium-obsessed with America's Next Top Model. I admit it, even though I normally shun reality show. I also will be the first to admit that Tyra Banks (the super-model turned TV host) seems crazier each season (for any of you who don't follow the show, I encourage you to watch 10 minutes of one episode to see this). I feel a bit frustrated for her - it's as if she's trying so hard to prove that she's still a model, and still one of the best at that. The sad part is she's trying to prove it to women half her age, half her size, and with their whole careers in front of them. I give her credit for all her successes, but maybe she should accept that she's no longer a supermodel, and stop striking poses on the show every 2 minutes (she seriously does this, usually mid-sentence). Just a suggestion.
For those fellow ANTM followers; my life has improved dramatically since Natalie was booted last night. For me, she symbolized every tall, hot, bitchy girl who's ever been horrible to me. Seeing her kicked off was like revenge for all the dirty looks and mean words over my adolescent years (not that I'm bitter or anything...).
