It was a star filled scene as A-listers convened to watch the annual Victoria Secret fashion show and celebrate the redesign of the 54-year-old Fontainebleau which is said to have cost $1 billion dollars.

Though I am certain it was a sight to see, I am wondering what is wrong with some of these people’s brains. Let’s take a look at what a few of them said.

Heidi Klum is the star of the show so let’s start with her. Speaking on the fact that Victoria Secret veteran Adriana Lima is wearing a 1,500-carat bra that costs $5 million dollars she says it was an extravagance, but that despite tough economic times there’s no need to dwell on the negative.

“You always have to look forward even when times are bad. You have to look to the future.”

Now while I agree with that, I’m just a bit curious as to what she considers “bad times”. I’m pretty sure there are people who are still homeless from hurricane Katrina. I’m certain there are children out there who are starving because they’re a victim of their circumstance and they just can’t afford to eat, let’s not even get started on the debt we are in as a country from the war. All those people affected by those things should probably just look forward to the future though, the only problem is that unlike Heidi not everyone has something to look forward to and with people of our caliber, the people holding out their hands to help is far and few between. I know it isn’t Heidi Klum’s or anyone else’s responsibility to take care of the whole world I just find it extremely rude and completely thoughtless for her to have made such a statement. I find it ludicrous with all that is going on in the world that we are wasting $5 million dollars on a stupid bra so we can strut around in it and look pretty on a runway. Seriously, who is going to wear that bra outside of the show?

Speaking of the 1,504-room luxury hotel which sits on 22 acres and features 11 restaurants and a 40,000-square-foot spa, Martha Stewart says:

“I think it’s great. They’re trying so hard to make everyone comfortable.”

That statement makes it sound like they are trying so hard yet they are just not quite succeeding. They just spent 1 billion dollars on what I just described above, the question begs, what does it take to make you people comfortable?
