New Words For SB: Cevorce

Cevorce = Celebrity Divorce.

But I am being redundant.

Divorce sucks.  Celebrity divorce probably sucks even worse.  First- I don’t have statistics but I’m going to go out on a limb and say celebrity marriages are more doomed from the start than regular old marriages.

Why?

1. Celebrities live in public.  I submit that magnifies the problems normal couples have.  Even if they don’t become Brangelina type tabloid fodder, the false moves a couple will inevitably make play out in public and that just adds insult to injury when things go wrong.

2. Celebrities are more attractive as a group than ordinary gnomes.  That means they get hit on more, and/or at least are more likely to score if they hit on someone.  Love conquers all but all too often sex conquers love.  And see #1 above about the fun results of that.

3. Celebrities are more likely to marry each other for the wrong reasons.  Like- marrying a playboy bunny because you can, but what makes you think that’s any indication of anything besides how good she looks in a bunny suit, or none at all?  Or marrying a star because, well, he’s a star?  Once the allure of that wears off, with the hundredth pair of underwear left on the bedroom floor or, worst case, the third or hundredth affair, the payoff of divorce can start looking pretty good.

4. Celebrities have more money than normal people, and when you add that to any or all of 1 through 3 above, you have an added motive for the less-moneyed party to bail.

How?

That question doesn’t make sense.

Who?  I just said!  Celebrities!

What can be done?

Nothing.  It’s one of the “buts” which immediately follow- Being rich and famous is so cool!

Consider this an incredibly unscientific and unsubstantiated caution flag for celebrity SBs, or celebrities who don’t want to become one!  And while you’re at it- check out some Grammer for SBs elsewhere on the site!
