More Crap Celeb Swag Leads to Even More Celeb Courtesy Smiles

Here's something I don't get: Why women who are paid millions of dollars per project, many of whom have a full staff to pick up their underwear and americanos and children from preschool, are getting all this Mother's Day swag just because they appear in UsWeekly on a regular basis. Here's something else I wonder: What do they do with all this crap?

And by crap, I mean the customized key chains Key to My Heart is putting together and into complimentary celeb gift baskets with fingers crossed for an accidental plug via papparazzi shot that ends up in (you got it) UsWeekly. The keychains are intended for "Hollywood's hardest working moms," namely the impressive list that includes many women we love (or at least love to dish about) at Strollerderby -- Angie, ToriBrit, Kelly, Gwen, Maggie, Keri and Jenna. Sadly, the actual list of Hollywood's hardest working moms -- the women of the cleaning crew, set construction, daycare, craft services and other "real people" jobs -- won't get jack for free from these folks.

Not that it matters. Despite the fact they're made from sterling silver, these key chains remind me of the cheapy kind you can make in the mall for $12. Plus, there's Cinnabon at the mall. And you can bet your ass there's not going to be any gooey, iced deliciousness in those bogus celebrity gift baskets.

You are so right On!  The Mom's who actually raise their children and are MOM's don't get a thing from promoters.  The moms who can afford NANNIES and all kinds of expensive things get the freebees.  Not Fair at all.

Stop staring at my shoes and read my posts, people. There are more important things in life than adorable heels purchased at reduced designer prices. Like, I don't know, changing the channel from Dragon Tales to Caillou so you have another 22 minutes to read my posts.
