Remember when I said the PR machine would be in high gear?

by AmyD

I hate to be completely cynical, but after the whole drama of the on set scuffle between Patrick and Isaiah I said I would be on the lookout for the Isaiah PR machine to kick into high gear. I was expecting to see pictures of him working with Habitat for Humanity, with his kids reading them a story, something to show his soft side. But there hasn’t been any of that - nothing, zippo, zilch, zero. But low and behold, a Patrick Dempsey smear campaign is underway. Coincidence or no?

Patrick married 47 year old Rocky Parker when he was only 21. (Ewww..) They divorced 4 years later. Now several tabloids are reporting that Rocky claimed during the divorce that Patrick beat her up on the set of “Can’t Buy Me Love.” Parker has now issued a statement saying during their terrible divorce she was advised to say negative and untrue things about Patrick.

So - the timing is very interesting, isn’t it? Maybe it is just another case of the press trying to tear down a celebrity and it has nothing to do with an attempt to damage Patrick’s reputation to even it out with the damage done to Isaiah’s reputation. What do you think?
