Security…SECURITY?!?

Kanye West interrupts Taylor Swift at VMA's

What in the world is going on with the security guards in the entertainment industry lately?  First we have Kanye West jumping on stage at the VMA Awards during Taylor Swift’s acceptance speech and yesterday Sugar Shane Mosley jumps into the ring and interrupts Floyd Mayweather’s post-fight interview with HBO’s Max Kellerman.  Whether this is a case of arrogance and self-centeredness or an impulse control problem something must be done. 

Perhaps we need to bring in retired secret service agents to train the security for such events (hmmm…Sugar Shane Mosley throws a mean right hook so I can understand how he managed to get in the ring).  Or maybe mandatory psychological counseling before awards shows and sporting events would help.  The easiest and most beneficial to society as a whole would be  to require every celebrity and professional athlete to take one of my etiquette workshops or sign up for 1-on-1 coaching because this behavior is just plain ridiculous!  I understand the need for publicity stunts but this has gone too far.  Rude, blatantly disrespectful behavior is unacceptable regardless of the ratings it brings. 

To all the celebrities and professional athletes out there…as my lovely grandmother would say “act like you got some home training.”  Geez, come on people it’s called “show BUSINESS,” treat the business (and yourself) with some respect.
