Courtney Stodden has been in rare form lately.
She gets a pass on much of her erratic behavior as of late because Stodden claims to have suffered a miscarriage.
There are many (including Courtney’s own mother) who believe that she was never really pregnant to begin with but decided to milk the attention.
We’re not eager to take sides on such a contentious issue, but we will point out that it wouldn’t be the first time that Stodden let the media believe she’s pregnant for the sake of stirring up some free publicity.
Anyway, in the weeks since she – let’s just say miscarried – Courtney has waffled between offering updates on her questionable coping mechanisms (drinking heavily, shaving her head, carrying around a doll and pretending it’s a real baby) to picking strange fights with celebrities.
(The girl challenged Brody Jenner to an acting contest. Seriously.)
Now Courtney is coming after Selena Gomez for some reason.
And by “for some reason,” we mean because she thinks it’ll help make her more famous.
In case you haven’t heard, Justin Bieber quit Instagram recently because he couldn’t handle the most mild smack talk from Selena.
Stodden felt the need to weigh in on this recently, and it seems she’s staunchly Team Justin.
Yes, with the cigarette and wine glass that seem to be her constant companions these days, Courtney bravely announces that she’s transitioning from Marilyn Monroe wannabe to Britney Spears circa 2007 wannabe.
(Minus the talent in both cases, of course.)
It might be fun to watch for a little while, but she’s aiming way too high with her feud targets.
Courtney, you couldn’t even get a D-lister like Brody Jenner to take the bait, now you’re trying to start sh-t with Selena?
If a minnow snaps your line, you don’t start fishing for marlins, ya know?
You have to start smaller.
Much, much smaller.
Go after, like, Mama June Shannon or Snooki and then get back to us.
Trust us. If there’s one thing we know, it’s celebrity feuds:
Also, if you’re trying to make a situation (in this case, Justin dating a teen) seem more normal, don’t compare it to you marrying Doug Hutchison when you were 16.
Yes, at one point in the video, Courtney claims she “invented” the notion of cradle-robbing.
And no, Courtney, you didn’t invent it.
Creepy old guys invented sleeping with women who were barely legal and/or way too young for them long before you born.
Just like how actual celebrities created acting messy to drum up publicity many, many years ago.
