New outsourcing phenomenon...Husbands?!

He says:

News in Europe had me thinking about the global dating phenomenon that slowly crept up on us. The other month, it was revealed that film star Hugh Grant will not be attending his ex-girlfriend Liz Hurley's wedding. This could've been because Hurley didn't get on with Grant's ex, Jemima Khan, nee Goldsmith, even though Grant and Khan have recently broken up after three rocky years together. You know there's trouble when a spokeswoman for Grant said the split had not changed a thing. She said: "Hugh is not going to Elizabeth's wedding. He was not invited and there is no weirdness or bitterness."

Anyway...I'm not that interested in the E! Channel shite. No, I want to draw your attention to my observation...the outsourcing of husbands! It's true. Look at Hurley - she's engaged to the Indian textiles millionaire businessman, Arun Nayar. Not so far removed from Hurley is Jemima Khan who was married to the Pakistani cricketer, Imran Khan, for nine years, moved to Pakistan and learnt Urdu. Amazing stuff.

Which other women marrying foreigners? I'll throw in the American brides who have married Brits: Liv Tyler (Royston Langdon, lead singer of Spacehog), Gwyneth Paltrow (Chris Martin, lead singer of Coldplay), Gwen Stefani (Gavin Rossdale, band member of Bush) and Madonna (Guy Ritchie, film director).

Brits rule, you should try them out ladies ;-)



She says:

It's official! Women are bored with their own race which is why we resort to foreigners! Or maybe they just have nice personalities? Maybe they have great things to offer? Hmm... but what could they offer? If you think about it, many Asian cultures don't treat their women with the utmost respect or tender care. Does that only apply to lower and middle class? Is it different if you're a millionaire or billionaire in the textile industry dating an American actress? I don't get it.

If I could nab a great Brit I would surely try him out. That accent alone would woo me into pieces. Aw hell, if I could nab a great Indian, Persian, Pakistani or Martian I'd try any of them out too! It's just the "great" part that lacks in most men. Sigh.
