With another month in the books, it’s time to give the honors. It’s time for the Sprezz/Spazz of June.
There’s been a lot of Spazz action. To kick things off, we had Mark Sanford, the governor of SC, who mysteriously took off for a week without informing his staff. Turns out that he was having an affair. Check out an e-mail he had sent to his lover on the side:
“You have a particular grace and calm that I adore. You have a level of sophistication that is so fitting with your beauty. I could digress and say that you have the ability to give magnificent gentle kisses, or that I love your tan lines or that I love the curve of your hips, the erotic beauty of you holding yourself… in the faded glow of the night’s light – but hey, that would be going into sexual details.” (from the Washington Post)
Pretty smooth….. But not smooth enough to avoid getting busted.
Some runners up included Michael Jackson’s doctor and Jon Gosselin. While it’s hard to tell exactly what went on with Jackson (celebrity cases are always shady), all signs point to the fact that he was up to no good.
Then you had Gosselin who milked up the courageousness of having 8 children with his wife, Kate, on a hit reality TV show… and then took a page out of Sanford’s book by getting nailed for having an affair.
On the other hand, there was some justice as judge Denny Chin’s sentence of 150 years basically stuck a fork in Bernie Madoff. I’m not sure if that’s Sprezz – real dicey topic but it was a significant event.
Unquestionably, the Sprezz of the month goes to The Hangover. Unbelievable movie. Anywhere you went, everyone you talked to, people were raving… and for good reason. In a month filled with the passing away of major celebrities and relentless, depressing rain, this movie took us out of our world and provided 100 minutes of nonstop smiles and laughs…. That’s Sprezzatura.

ReplyDeleteThe Hangover was a sick movie though. Can't disagree with that.
