Methinks the lady protest too much....

So, another day, another protest in India, not toward the government, the shortage of water, electricity, or basic necessities, but hearthrob and screen legend, the lovely Richard Gere! Not only was he in India doing good work for aids research, he is a lifelong admirer and positive ambassador for the country worldwide. How could he be treated so badly! My only thought after seeing this what that the real protest should have been, 'why wasn't it me?!?'

Actor Richard Gere has sparked protests in India after kissing Celebrity Big Brother winner Shilpa Shetty at an Aids awareness rally in New Delhi.
Demonstrators in Mumbai (Bombay) set light to effigies of the Hollywood star, while protesters in other cities shouted "death to Shilpa Shetty". The protesters said Gere insulted Indian culture by kissing the hand and face of the Bollywood actress. Shetty downplayed the incident, saying "it was not so obscene". "This was not such a big thing for people to over-react in such a manner," the actress told the Press Trust of India news agency. "I understand people's sentiments, but I don't want a foreigner to take bad memories from here. I understand this is his culture, not ours," she added.
