You know, I often wonder about the point of interviewing anyone. It was just back in January that Balthazar Getty was praising his wife (and four kids) to the skies to me. Meanwhile he's hanging out with a topless Sienna Miller and now getting a divorce. So like, in the future, should I assume that whenever anyone goes out of their way to praise his wife, it means he's trying to keep her from divorcing him/going to the tabloids/shooting him in the face while he sleeps? I am not regularly surprised when I find people are lying to me, it's just that usually I find them out fairly soon. Why does this even irritate me?

Why does this even irritate me?

Because it was Sienna and not you he was hanging out with?

Yeah but I still learn about them by how they lie. They are telling you how they want to be thought of. Do I believe that Wendy Williams likes bedazzling everything and is fine with her husband being accused of sexual harassment? Not really. Do I learn a lot about her by hearing the claims she makes and how? I think so.

Answer to your question: yes, absolutely. Also, "topless Sienna Miller" is redundant.
