So when Kat Von D announced her hook up with rebounding James people were ambivalent. ON the one hand they thought that the gruesome twosome were a perfect match. KVD is heavily tattooed. She has also had a brush with white power. During her reality TV days she sent her Jewish boss a hate filled racially charged e mail, which she later denied sending, and even later admitted to bu claimed that she didn't mean it. The back story on that is KVD was working for a guy called Ami James on Miami Ink. James is off the Jewish persuasion - although it's not clear who persuaded him. He and Kat had a falling out, so Kat left to do her own think. however she left James a little something to remember her by:
That's Kat - thinking with her heart instead of using her head. Anyway the combination of racism and body art, not to mention the general sleaze factor, seemed to make her the Jesse James dream girl. They did seem to have so much in common what with being fringe culture border line personality types.
On the other hand they didn't think that it was appropriate for James to be bouncing back into the arms of love, or whatever, so soon. He seemed to have skipped the whole penance period. It's not that anyone considered Kat Von D to be any great prize, except for those who never out grew their heavy metal stage. It's just that people objected to JJ being happy so soon after making everyone else so uncomfortable and Sandy Bullock so unhappy. After all he basically ruined her Oscar night!
Well never fear. Things seemed to have worked out - if not for the best then at least 'worked out". KVD seems to have moved on from JJ. She's recently been spotted out and about with other fringe types with borderline personalities (Not Mel Gibson - recent bad experiences have left him gun shy). That doesn't mean that she and JJ are dunzo. Kat gets around and there's plenty to go around. However it doesn't look good for the love birds. Now that the publicity factor has worn off there's not a lot that JJ can do for KVD. He's a failed reality TV star and presently fading too fast to even be worthwhile tabloid fodder. So KVD has every reason to move on. If it can happen to Dave & Courtney it can happen to anyone (Arquette might have been more interesting if he'd cheated with tattooed neo nazi porn stars then revealing that Cox just got tired of being his mom - the mom fetish might have been fun in Mrs. Robinson with Anne Bancroft and Dustin Hoffman, but in real life it's a creepy drag!). Anyone except Demi & AShton - they're in love and they don't care who knows it!
So that should provide closure for almost everyone. Everyone except those anticipating an eventually JJ - KVD reality TV show, and poor Sandra Bullock. However even she might be getting a second shot at love. If the rumours are true Sandy is considering hooking up with the one person with whom she shares so much in common: public image, career trajectory, and unfortunate love life - none other than Jennifer Aniston! Naw, that last part ain't true - but imagine if it were!
