That's basically, in a nutshell, why I think bearding is bullshit. I'm not denying "bearding" because I do think in cases like John Travolta and Tom Cruise, the benefits of the relationship are so great girls happily give into them for
that reason; and on top of that, some women are just desperate to have a man in their life. There was one woman on Oprah who was dating a man who had sexually molested her
son, and when he was released from prison
she married the bastard! Why on
earth would a woman do that? That's bearding to a whole different level (a very sick one) but it's an example of just how pathetically desperate some women are.
When it comes to celebrity's in Hollywood, I think a lot of them are set up by publicists because it "fits" the image they're trying to portray. They both go along with it because of publicity -- it helps both of their careers. I highly doubt any of them are getting "paid" for doing it. It's just an image thing; an even exchange.
I also don't think there's as much bearding as we think there is in Hollywood. I think everybody in Hollywood fucks around with each other (gay straight or bi) and it gets misinterpreted as bearding. Like I said, I'm sure some are arrangements, but I think the majority of these actors and actresses are just doing their thing; screwing who they want; getting publicity for it etc.
