Crying Americans.

kneemos · 2012-09-09 10:11:29

How is it they always start crying bang on cue during news reports,it may not even be that big an issue.I know it may be a cultural thing where your expected to shed a few tears,but how do you do it.Actors are trained in the art,but the ordinary Joe in the street seems to be a master of it.

The Americans do love an old sob especially reality singing contests but U.S 'celebrities' take it to another level. Usher at the Michael Jackson funeral, how cringey was that, he nearly gets into the coffin, even Jacksons family are looking at him like WTF?

It's pretty hard for American's to deal with the guilt of being in such an awesome country. Most of the world would kill for a free plane ticket and citizenship there. It can make them emotional.
