my name is justin, and I have ocd
June 27th, 2008
Despite being the vessel for some of God’s great gifts to his children – namely Sexyback, and Like I love You – it’s no secret that Justin Timberlake is a massive douche. From his heinous famewhore girlfriend to his sad attempts to be cool by wearing shoes like Brad Pitt’s, to his Britney sellout Cry me a River video: douche. I can’t say it enough – douche.
Saddest of all, he’s not even a diverting douche, like Kanye West, he’s just … sad. Sad, and beige.
This may be why he announced to the media:
“I have OCD mixed with ADD. You try living with that. It’s complicated.”
As someone who feels pretty knowledgeable about, and sympathetic towards, most psychological and psychiatric disorders … I CALL BULLSHIT. BULLSHIT, JT! I know what you’re doing you superior twat, and it won’t work. Not even an anxiety disorder can make you anything but beige. YOU WILL NEVER BE INTERESTING.
People pull this fake-dark or odd-and-interesting thing all the time, and it makes me wanna cut a bitch. They turn up to dinner and announce in the restaurant they’re allergic to wheat, order a salad, then when the bruschetta comes they’re all “well I’m not a coeliac or anything, I’m just a little bit allergic”. HANDS OFF MY HERB BREAD BITCH.
Or they meet you at someone’s party, compliment you on your shoes, then confide that they are totally manic-depressive.
It’s also what Ashlee Simpson did:
When she was 11 and taking ballet classes, the 21-year-old Simpson tells Cosmopolitan magazine, she had a brush with anorexia.“I was around a lot of girls with eating disorders, and I actually had a minor one myself,” says Simpson, who at one point stood 5’2″ but only weighed 70 lbs.
“My parents stepped in and made me eat,” she goes on to say, adding that it was “about six months of not eating too much at all.” The family support, she says, “really helped a lot.”
… and Mandy Moore:
“A few months ago I felt really low, really sad. Depressed for no reason. I’m a very positive person, and I’ve always been glass-half-full, so it was like someone flipped a switch in me. I wanted to figure out why.”
Yep, they were totally sick. But just for a few months, you know. Long enough to have some ‘dark secrets’ to talk about, not long or badly enough to need any kind of medical intervention or feel any emotion or reluctance in talking about it.
I could get on my high-horse about mental illnesses not being accessories, but that’s not even the point.
The lesson, children, is this: If you need to manufacture illness to have something noteworthy to say … just give it up bitches.
Illness is not “interesting”. Personality disorder is not a substitute for personality. And Justin Timberlake will never be anything but beige.
