Shelley Walcott: Don't Tell The BossOh no they didn't!By Shelley WalcottSo what do Kanye West, Serena Williams and Congressman Joe Wilson have in common? In the last week they have all publicly humiliated themselves with obnoxiously bad behaviour. How shocking was it to hear Joe Wilson shout, "You lie!" to President Obama during the president's health care address? I mean, that was incredibly disrespectful. And how about Serena Williams' outburst at the U.S. Open? After a call she disagreed with, she unleashed a string of expletives and threatened to shove a tennis ball down a line judge's throat. As big a fan as I have been of Serena, I was glad she was docked a point, and lost that semifinal match. And what in the world can you say about Kanye West? He stormed up on stage during Taylor Swift's acceptance speech at the Video Music Awards, took the microphone out of her hands, and declared that Beyonce should have won. Talk about having an inflated sense of where you fall in the universe. Wilson, West and Williams are my trifecta pick for people who clearly have no class. They all need to apologize for their actions, and disappear for a while. Just a reminder that in a civilized society... not everything goes. |
