Another Reason To Hate Tori & Dean


I have to apologize to everyone in advance. I thought I had watched the season finale of Tori & Dean a few months ago. I thought it ended with the birth of the baby. Apparently I was wrong. There was some highlight show that was on the week after and I never knew it existed until I saw it this weekend. You know it is a slow weekend when I am flipping through channels and decide on Tori & Dean, especially considering I thought I had already seen it.

So, you can imagine my surprise when I saw new footage and got to relive some of the a-holery that is Dean. A-holery is the new buzz word of the year. I think it will be fine replacement to Beavis And Butthead's Cornholio. Anyway, in addition to Tori admiring the new stupid tattoos of Dean, and they are stupid, there was a very, very interesting moment that probably should have been edited out.

Tori and Dean, their nanny, and the two kids are at a pool. The nanny, Tori and Stella are all in a cabana, but anyone can see inside the cabana if they are at the correct angle. Tori sees a guy taking photos of them and it is used as an introduction to the horrors of the paps throughout the preceding season. Fine. It is a nice segue, but, they should have found some other way to introduce the segment because this is what was said and shows where the true priorities of Tori and Dean are at all times.

Tori - Some guy just took photos of all of us.
Dean - God, I'm good looking. What did you say mama? (ok to be fair he just looked dazed and said "what?")
Tori - Some guy got pictures of everyone. Let's just hope he didn't get pictures of Stella.
Dean - Yeah, that would be bad.

Now, I want to point out that their son Liam was outside the cabana and neither of them cared he was photographed. Neither particularly cared that Tori or Dean was photographed either. Why on earth would they care if Stella had been photographed? Well considering she was a brand new baby, that should give you one clue. That's right. Tori & Dean were selling the photos or didn't want to show the baby before the show aired. In either case it was all about making money off their kid. When you don't want a photographer to take a photo because you are protecting your child, I admire that. When you don't want a photographer to take a photo of your child because you are protecting your wallet, that makes you jerks.
