So tonight, I was watching Celebrity Fit Club on VH1. Yes, I am a glutton for punishment where reality television is concerned. Anyway, if you don’t know what Celebrity Fit Club is, its when former celebs or D List E List stars who are a little or a lot overweight form teams to lose weight, and are guided by experts who show them how to lose weight while being healthy. They have intensive physical training, weigh ins, and also counseling sessions to help them with their problems, both food and non food related.
This season features Kevin Federline, Britney Spears’ ex husband, R&B bad boy Bobby Brown, rocker Sebastian Bach, former Baywatch beauty Nicole Eggert, Moesha star (and Kevin Federline’s ex) Shar Jackson, and others. I thought it was a great ratings ploy on VH1’s behalf to have both Shar and Kevin on the same show; we’ve all heard about the tabloid fodder that surrounded their break-up. Supposedly Kevin left Shar while she was pregnant with their second child to go live outrageously with pop chanteuse Britney Spears, who he later married and had two children.
We all thought the same thing: poor Shar.
But in tonight’s episode, I see that there is no need for anyone to feel guilty about Shar Jackson. I feel more sorry for her than anything. And it seems as if she hasn’t seemed to have moved on from her past. In one scene, she sits and cries about having to pick up the pieces after Kevin left. And while she says she no longer has feelings, the psychologist sees that there are signs she is still not over Kevin. I could understand if this was a recent break-up. But it’s been almost five years!
It is time to move on girl. He isn’t thinking about you!
This is something that really gets my goat. Women, we must allow ourselves to heal. We must allow ourselves to move on. Move forward. Be productive. To sit and wallow about a man who obviously doesn’t care about you in THAT way is not only pathetic, it is just plain old sad. I refuse to sit motionless for years thinking of coulda, shoulda, woulda, when I could be working on my next plan for world domination. Love hurts. And it sucks too. But when do you say enough is enough?!
Don’t be like Shar Jackson. Love doesn’t always work. I can dig that. And that hurts. A lot. I’ve been there and done that. But you also have to allow yourself to move on and prepare for a relationship that will work and prosper. Don’t do yourself a disservice by not moving on.
Did you see Celebrity Fit Club? What do you think of the whole Kevin Federline/Shar Jackson saga? Let me know your thoughts.
