The Truth About Why Celebrity News Doesn’t Matter

Hello, it’s Earnest Mann here! In this episode, I’m cutting through the nonsense of celebrity news and getting real about what actually matters in our lives. Every day, we're bombarded with media stories, from marriages to scandals. But here’s the real question—why should we care? Today, I’m using the marriage of Lana Del Rey and Jeremy Duin as an example of how much of what we're told is irrelevant to our daily existence.

Why Celebrity Gossip Is Irrelevant

Let’s be honest, whether it's celebrity weddings or the latest viral trends, none of this stuff truly matters in our lives. I get it, some people are obsessed with the latest entertainment headlines, but is that really where our focus should be? The reality is that whether Lana Del Rey marries or breaks up with someone has no impact on us. The quicker you realize that, the quicker your life will improve.

The Bigger Issue Behind the Obsession with Celebrities

Here’s the bigger point: celebrity news is a distraction. It's just noise meant to keep us from thinking critically about what really impacts our lives. I'm telling you, focusing on this nonsense isn’t going to help you in the long run. It’s time to wake up and understand that these stories are here to keep us distracted. That’s the truth.

-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

I'm a deep thinking contrarian, a very pragmatic idiocythrope. I believe that function determines desirability and legitimacy. I don't like the superficial and/or pretentious, nor the shallow. I speak the truth as best as I know it, as a professor of tautology.

With friends, I desire quality over quantity. I know some very important life truths I'm just waiting for you to ask about. I have found in life, many people talk about happiness, but are unwilling to pay the price, or believe they shouldn't have to, because they are entitled to it, but I know with absolute certainty, that such beliefs are always due to stupidity, Insanity, or some degree of both.

This is not just another YouTube channel; I'm seeking to build a community of Intelligent thinkers daring to discuss, - and say - what the hell really needs to be said, so do the right thing, leave your thoughts, for me and others to possibly learn from, and subscribe, and tell everyone else in the world you know about me, and you'll stand a really good chance, of me remembering you, in my will!

I believe we really can change the current status quo of an idiotic and fucked up purposeless treadmill existence, and actually improve this world, but it requires intelligence, honesty, and BALLS, all three of which are currently in short supply, especially the balls.

Thank you for taking the time, to read this, and remember to avoid anything or anyone stupid, as much as possible, your life will be far better for it.

Please consider, that by visiting my website and/or donating to this show, you're supporting an actual person, not some mega corporation, that wouldn't know human compassion if it hit them over the head!

I look forward to hearing from you, and until next Monday or Friday remember, the world may be misinformed and batshit crazy, but YOU, don’t have to be!

every day whether we want them or not we

0:05

receive constant messages supposedly

0:08

meant to keep us informed of every damn

0:12

thing going on in the world and the

0:15

catastrophic consequences of what will

0:18

happen to us personally if we don't know

0:22

but the question that we should be

0:24

asking is why the hell is most of this

0:27

news really important and why the hell

0:31

should we think for one second that it

0:36

is if you work for a living why do you

0:40

kill yourself

0:42

working hello it's

0:45

Monday thank you for being here there

0:49

are many things that are important in

0:51

this world of course but the marriage

0:54

between Lena

0:56

Del and Jeremy duin

1:00

is not exactly one of

1:03

them I'm going to talk a bit about it um

1:07

after I show you this little

1:09

clip and um see what you think see if um

1:15

you agree or maybe you

1:18

won't and um yeah after we do that um

1:24

we'll uh we'll basically have a you know

1:27

a better understanding of at at least

1:30

where where I'm coming from so let

1:32

me let's just get to the damn thing here

1:35

we

1:38

go it looks like Lana Del re tied the

1:41

knot the singer has married Jeremy duine

1:43

after the pair were recently spotted

1:45

obtaining their marriage license the

1:47

Newly Weds exchanged vows during an

1:49

intimate ceremony with family and

1:50

friends in Des alamandas Louisiana the

1:53

ceremony was held outside of New Orleans

1:55

near the spot the Alligator Tour Guide

1:57

operates his boat tours the singer and

1:59

and Jeremy have allegedly known each

2:01

other for many years as Lana posted a

2:03

cture with him on Facebook in:

2:06

rumors about the couple dating began

2:08

after a Tik Tok video of them holding

2:09

hands went viral over the summer no

2:12

Summertime Sadness for the Say Yes To

2:14

Heaven

2:21

singer now the reason why I'm talking

2:25

about this

2:26

today is to point out to you um how this

2:31

actually

2:33

represents something that's very wrong

2:41

again there's so much wrong I I I don't

2:46

you know I don't know where to begin so

2:49

I'll just [ __ ] I'll just I'll just pick

2:51

a

2:52

spot because I want to try to keep this

2:57

short I don't want it to be

2:59

unnecessarily

3:00

long to tell you what a [ __ ] disaster

3:04

I'm looking at

3:05

here

3:07

um you see the absolute truth is this as

3:11

far as these two people are

3:14

concerned um until I you know just saw

3:18

this come up uh randomly on

3:21

YouTube um it's I just look at it and I

3:25

say okay and part of it is you can argue

3:29

you can say well it's you know it's

3:31

generational because the very first

3:33

thing is I have no [ __ ] clue who

3:35

these people are so that's you could

3:39

certainly argue that that's a

3:41

generational thing okay

3:43

fine but the bigger point that I'm

3:46

trying to say is is that the one uh one

3:50

of the few good cits about being

3:53

older um or being an old [ __ ] depending

3:57

on your politics and what you want to

3:59

call me

4:00

is that you see something for what it is

4:04

and you have a tendency to want to get

4:07

cut to the Chase and get to the bottom

4:09

of something and so that's exactly in

4:12

talking about this what I want to do

4:16

because again something that's I don't

4:21

know borderlining on being a I don't I

4:25

don't I don't I don't

4:27

know this is so crazy I don't know I

4:31

don't know what's with the

4:34

elevated [ __ ] M Mouse CER thing that

4:38

all these chicks have so you know like

4:42

the chick that was hosting this thing I

4:45

I think she's very very

4:47

hot but her voice is a bit annoying it

4:50

has that annoying corporatism kind of

4:55

sound to it but physically she's she's

4:58

great

5:00

but all these

5:01

things

5:03

are they're all the same in that they

5:06

have this

5:08

extremely childlike quality to

5:12

them whereas I look at this and I look

5:15

at this you know this singer this you

5:18

know D Ray

5:20

person and this other guy and I'm like

5:24

okay here's a gal that's regardless of

5:28

her you know singing abilities here's a

5:31

gal that's you know reasonably

5:35

attractive but she can't no one's

5:39

telling her this guy's a [ __ ]

5:42

grifter she is what I'd call you know

5:46

the nice girl um next door kind of thing

5:50

she just she has that look she looks

5:54

like you know she just has a nice girl

5:57

look again the host of this thing she

6:02

she does not have a nice girl look she

6:04

has a hot look there's a huge difference

6:08

one is hot one is

6:11

not this is

6:13

hot this is not

6:16

hot but this guy this guy

6:21

that she [ __ ]

6:24

married I know what he

6:26

is he's a grifter

6:41

yes this is Grandpa talking to you it

6:43

would be interesting though to see just

6:45

flashback to this record this

6:49

video record this and see what you'll

6:52

find out later hey I was right about P

6:56

Diddy so

6:59

not too bad huh not too

7:02

shabby but this guy this guy reeks of

7:06

being a grifter and one of the Dead

7:09

giveaways for that okay is a guy doing

7:14

or trying to do gang banger signs a

7:19

photograph and chem his chemo chem gear

7:23

camouflage

7:28

gear I I don't know what you obviously

7:31

too old for that [ __ ] but yeah I C

7:35

clearly show this in the picture he's

7:36

flashing some kind of

7:40

something and you're supposed to be a

7:43

talented

7:45

singer and I know he's he's Earth earthy

7:50

and there's you know but he's I mean

7:54

he's at best he's a goo but he's a broke

7:57

ass he's a broke ass

8:00

and he's a

8:01

grifter and for once this is forever and

8:06

ever is not been the case I know that um

8:12

usually

8:13

typically uh it's always the woman who

8:17

comes to the good-looking talented guy

8:21

regardless of what that may be uh

8:25

marries him and a few years later takes

8:28

half of everything that's life that he's

8:30

worked for that's typically it that is

8:33

the truth that's typically it but but

8:37

it's in this particular case um you know

8:42

it's it's it's not I believe I don't

8:44

believe it's fair or good if it happens

8:46

to anybody it just happens to be that

8:49

because of the stupid laws of America

8:51

and for a lot of a lot

8:54

of a lot of stup stupid things that are

8:58

far too much to go into to the length of

9:00

this um video but I really feel as

9:03

though you know this guy's going to uh

9:06

clean her out unless there's

9:08

some you know super [ __ ] heavy duty

9:12

uh prenups going on

9:15

there and if she doesn't do that or

9:18

didn't do

9:20

that she could find

9:23

herself and really big

9:27

trouble and I don't mean this is if

9:30

anyone's if anyone's really

9:33

young uh females you're watching this

9:38

[ __ ] it the a woman being in trouble

9:42

many many years ago if you if you would

9:44

have said this in the 40s or the 50s or

9:48

hell maybe even to the 60s it was

9:51

definitely prominent in the 50s that

9:54

meant getting

9:57

pregnant because the system back then

10:01

was not as [ __ ] up and crazy as it is

10:05

now and if you want to know more than

10:07

that you know how to reach me we could

10:10

talk about that I'll do a video on

10:12

whatever you want reach me ask me I

10:14

don't give a [ __ ] but yeah but I did I

10:17

in this particular case though I didn't

10:19

mean in trouble that way I meant

10:22

financially I meant

10:25

ruined and I'm you know say what you

10:29

would will about me you know it's like

10:32

oh arnest but you you're you're just an

10:35

old dinosaur you don't know people you

10:37

don't you don't know them you don't know

10:39

their character you you're you just out

10:42

us you don't know and d d d

10:46

yeah well guess what I've had to make it

10:49

my life to know good character it's

10:54

something very important to me it is

10:59

I take one look at this

11:03

guy I say yeah he looks like a

11:08

grifter I don't give a damn if you agree

11:10

with me or

11:12

not I think he looks like she looks like

11:15

a I'm not saying she's Mary Poppins or a

11:17

girl scout or

11:20

innocent um hell I think in the image

11:23

maybe just to appease him or something

11:25

she's like again flashing hand signs or

11:28

gang signs

11:30

I don't know what the [ __ ] she's trying

11:31

to be I don't know she did it too so hey

11:34

if she wants to be all ghetto and

11:39

everything

11:41

okay hell maybe I'm wrong maybe she's

11:44

just become a rich

11:46

hillbilly because you know [ __ ]

11:50

hillbilly becomes rich however they do

11:52

it somehow and the movies or the lottery

11:56

it doesn't matter how they do it I've

11:58

been enountered it many times in my life

12:01

many

12:03

times you know the [ __ ] hillbilly is

12:06

still a

12:07

hillbilly it's kind of it's kind of hard

12:10

to to get all the hillbilly out of them

12:14

so yeah I mean

12:16

so maybe she's a hillbilly as well

12:20

maybe they're made for each other they

12:23

could just [ __ ] go off into I don't

12:26

know Hollywood Hillbilly Heaven down the

12:29

that's right he's in the alligator thing

12:31

so he's a they're down there in the

12:33

redneck

12:35

Riviera and they're fixing on having

12:38

some youngans together maybe about four

12:40

or five I figure maybe more

12:44

hell you know may maybe that's the case

12:47

may maybe I'm

12:50

wrong I don't think I'm

12:53

wrong

12:55

yeah I think he's [ __ ] grifter

12:59

now now that I've said all that and

13:02

given my opinion here's the bigger thing

13:06

that I wanted to denote though

13:08

regardless of what I think or what you

13:13

think whoever thinks the world

13:17

thinks the bigger question here

13:20

is what does it [ __ ]

13:24

matter what does it

13:27

matter what does it matter what does it

13:30

matter

13:32

in your life or my

13:36

life what they

13:38

do whatever it

13:42

is what does it

13:45

matter the answer

13:47

is it [ __ ]

13:52

doesn't and that is the thing look at

13:55

the video watch it the girls like they I

13:58

don't know

13:59

they you know they's they're like

14:02

they're 16 years old one of them rolling

14:04

back looking like she's going to [ __ ]

14:06

faint or something I don't know I don't

14:09

know what it

14:12

is the sooner you find out

14:15

though that it

14:17

doesn't

14:20

matter the sooner your own life begins

14:24

to

14:26

improve that's the whole point of what

14:28

I'm saying

14:30

here doesn't [ __ ] matter and you know

14:33

what it never

14:35

will

14:37

so that's speaking my pece on this

14:48

happens thank you for being

15:03

from uh Columbo uh telling you that I

15:06

would give you a brief message and so

15:10

since I want to keep it brief um that's

15:13
