Dear Kristen I hope you read this


Dear Kristen,

Seeing the paparazzi get to you like we saw Friday is heartbreaking.

You have spent 99.9% of the past few years with the  armor that allows you to ignore it.    I never watch the videos because its too much.  I'm told what these scumbags yell at you to provoke reactions.

If I could, I would run interference on these guys as often as I could.  I am pretty sure I would end up in jail.

I am also very sorry that much of your personal life has to be played out in public.  I don't think there has been a celebrity as polarizing as you and I will never get why.   If I had to guess, it's because you don't put off a public persona.  Your only acting when on set.

The biggest factor that affects the crazies is the man you are associated-with.   This isn't his fault and they have harmed him as well.   I I hope you know the number of people that love you is much greater than those that spend their time finding ways to hate you.

There have been child actors who have struggled in adulthood.  So far, it looks like you will succeed, if you want to keep this up.  I hope you keep good mentors that you listen too.

You have been the first and definitely the last "celebrity" I will have concerns for.  I actually started this blog in 2010 because I was blown away by your performances that i had just discovered.   There are many that know more about you than me, so I will leave that #1 fan tag for someone else.  But if its only males being counted, I must be near the top.

I despise all the forms of entertainment media.  Very few have any ethics and we know when they use the word "source" there is a 99.9% chance they made it up.  The only exception I can find to this trend is Entertainment Weekly.  If they don't name a source, its a lie.  If you were not out there making news, I would not pay any attention to any of these entertainment outfits.

  The trait that made me identify with you so much is your introverted ness.   I'm not really talking about shyness and I agree with those that say you are not awkward but rather supremely confident.  But
those moments on TV when you appeared nervous, yet you faced the fear, this made many of us love you.

--those that have met and worked with you rate you as a top class pro and fun to be around.
--you make funny random gestures that are very endearing
--You can act in any genre at a top level
--your intelligence is off the charts.  This comes out in interviews when your words have trouble keeping up with thoughts.
--your beautiful even if you try not to be.
--there is not a celebrity I would put above you when it comes to beauty
-- your love for animals and loyalty to your friends is wonderful.

If there is trouble in your personal life right now, just know that it will pass.   I'll spare you any cliques.

I look forward to watching you pick up an academy award someday.  Or even if you decide to live a lower profile, I'll never forget you.

Yes I wish I had been fortunate as to have been in the same circles as you so I could really know you.  I wish I had been born a couple decades later in the Valley to have had a chance to know you.    I hope you have what you need around you in the way of friends.  It seems that might be the case but I'm in no position to say.   I also hope you are not too proud to seek therapy, regardless if its for individuals or couples.

No matter what happens in your life from here, thank you for the joy you have provided so far.

Best of luck

Dan
Austin, Tx

Last entry for now

There are about 50+ entries on this blog.   I am going to leave it up but I just wanted to put one last one out there if for no other reason than to keep the previous entry from being the last one.

I write this post with the hope that I am wrong.  A few people I trust think this is all BS, but others I trust feel pretty darn certain its accurate.   If the first group is right, I'll gladly eat some crow.

I still have a deep admiration for Kristen and probably always will.  I had pretty much shut the blog down last spring well before the drama of July, but then added a few entries to show support.
I always identified with her quirks and personality traits and her introverted side.  When she gives an interview, you can tell there is so much going on in her brain and its difficult sometimes to make a point when her brain is processing 10 other possibilities that she feels shouldn't be ignored.   That's why interviews are not the easiest thing for her because there is a rarely a simple answer to the questions she is asked.  I think think the girl borders on genius.  

Real Life has been a real bitch for me over the past year.   Most of us probably end up with 10 friends who
we really consider close at one point or another.  Three of them died in the past 12 months.

I don't know what is going on now and will probably never find out.  Any media that would bother covering the personal lives of celebrities are bottom feeders that rely on unnamed sources.  Before the Internet, brick
and mortar newspapers would very rarely use an anonymous source.   And I'll credit the hard news side of media for having tougher standards, but when it comes to sports and celebrities, there is not one single media outlet that has a code of ethics any more.

Kristen never wanted this kind of fame but she learned to adapt to it and might have made a few mistakes along the way.   I thought Robert was good for her as their personalities meshed from what I could see.
I try very hard to ignore celebrity culture and the coverage of it, but that's hard to do when you want to hear about a specific individual.  

If there is any silver lining to this maybe breakup, possibly the scum that chase them everyday will lose interest. But first, if they don't get back together, it will be all about who they see first.   I have always despised this form of entertainment and those that work in it.   Those of you who work for any gossip outlet, or chase people with cameras, you truly are the lowest form of humans we have today.  Entertainment Weekly is probably the one exception.

I feel confident we will see her win an Academy Award someday.   I wish Rob luck too.  These two will always bleed for each other.  It may not be over, but it would be so much easier for them if we the public didn't care.  Neither one of them covet fame.   The stupidest accusations her detractors put out there was that she somehow coveted media & paparazzi attention.  I am sorry, but if you hold that opinion you are very stupid.   She spends most of her time trying to avoid media attention.

My parting shot at the nonstens: are you gleefully happy?  Well good, but you were wrong from day one.
You know this was never PR, but now you will try and claim the contract just ended.
How arrogant to think you have some type of right to influence a person's life.  You are just as low as the paparazzi, with your letter writing campaigns and protests.    You will forever taint Rob's career for the crazy stunts you pulled over the years.   Your hatred of Kristen came down to pure jealously.  You thought she wasn't that much prettier than you and thus not deserving of the guy who wanted her badly.   The truth is Kristen is one of those women who just get more beautiful with age and life experience.  There is not one woman in Hollywood I would pick over her.

I was drawn to her un-voluntarily.  She was the first and will be the last celebrity I pay attention to, and I will miss allot of of because I can't stomach what I have to filter through to learn what is new about her.

I sat back and watched what was willingly made available with the best content being created for the promotion.  

I don't know if this the end of her relationship or not.   I would not be surprised if its back on eventually as the man in question has made some statements about love never being temporary.   But sometimes its not enough to sustain a relationship.  We have seen how intense they felt for each other through legitimate means.  The best stuff came from the promotion.

I'll leave comments open, but its moderated.  If you are a hater, then fuck off because no one will read a word of what you have to say.   If you just want to communicate with me, use the Kontact button and you have the option to send me an anonymous (or non-anonymous) email.  I will still use the twitter account @dano328 but its going to be mixed more and more with Arsenal stuff.

The blog history is there, so if you want to know my thoughts on Kristen, just browse through it.  My opinions have not changed since I first discovered her.   Like Rob, it was her part in "Into the Wild" that put her at the top of my list.

Take Care,

Dan
