There comes a point in every rich actors lives, though, when they realise how shallow their existence is, how superficial they are, how needy and whining they seem, how obscene their self absorption is when they give interviews about their ‘struggles’ and ‘art’, when they get paid millions just to prance about in front of a movie camera for a few weeks.

What better way to absolve yourself, make you feel as if you are not a superficial self absorbed idiot, than to adopt and rescue poor brown children from hell? And at the same time give interviews declaring it, telling the world about what a sensitive soul, you are, so caring and wonderful and blah blah blah

Advertise it! You are a tortured soul! When you saw the misery, I felt their pain, I am not just a self obsessed narcisstic superficial idiot! Feel my pain!

Adopting makes sense. You dont have to get pregnant and it avoids stretch marks and flaccid breasts. And it stil gives you time to be an international superstar etc etc etc and all the other really important things in life.

Are a sizeable number of people in India very miserable? yes.

I have lived in India for 21 years and I have seen there a level of misery I have only seen on TV in the united states. I have also enjoyed a level of luxury there that I have only seen on tv in the United States (yeah I’m a poor student here).

Where’s the controversy?
