I’ll tell you…it’s easy to be po’d at celebrities. 

All of them with twins conceived with their own 50 year old eggs.  Imagine that. And then they don’t want to share their fertility secrets with us! I just want to poke them:

“Hey, you’re in the public eye! You picked this line of work! You can’t just keep your infertility issues to yourself…Inquiring minds want to know!”

But honestly…. How much do we hate our unwanted press conferences?

We have to deal with family, friends and coworkers up our ovaries all the time…

Celebrities have to deal with those… and the rest of the world. And they can never win. If they tell us nothing, we want to know something. If they tell us something, we demand to know more.

Celine Dion’s been more open and honest than anyone should expect anyone to be. If I were she, I think I would have been like:

“Look, I have this incredible voice, I make zillions in Vegas…Screw you…I’ll tell you nothing.”

(It sounds particularly offensive with a French accent)

But she lets us all in on her infertility woes and I’m sure she still has to put up with: 

“Celine, you’ve done fertility treatments over and over for years and years. Don’t you feel just a little guilty that you’re spending millions of dollars trying when others can’t afford to go through even one cycle of IVF?”

“Your husband’s like 80 years old. Don’t you think it’s a little selfish to want to have children with him now?”

“Do you think the fact that you weigh 70 pounds might be part of your fertility issues?” 

Nicole Kidman, Gd bless her, is grilled on her clothes, her movie roles, her ex and by-the-way…”Nicole:  Where did that new child just come from?”

“Was it by surrogate? Oh it was.”

“Were they your own eggs?”

“Oh, they were? Really? I mean you’re 43. I guess it’s not impossible.” 

“You had similar issues when you were married to Tom Cruise. So, does that mean that your husband, Keith Urban’s sperm are fine?”

(I don’t know whether or not his sperm are fine, but as for the rest of him…

Infertility issues notwithstanding, nobody in their right mind would ever claim that having sex over and over with Keith Urban was a waste of time.)
