It’s a rite of passage.īieber’s rites - and numerous wrongs - of passage have been well-chronicled, migrating over from the entertainment pages of newspapers to the news section, even tall forehead op-ed territory. I understand the phenomenon of young hearts that pound with adoration for teen heart throbs. And David Cassidy from The Partridge Family. Once upon a time, I had a crush on Davy Jones from The Monkees. It required immense self-control not to spoil their pleasure.

I say this as someone who was recently dragged to watch Bieber’s new movie by a trio of girls aged 7, 9 and 14. His fan base is much younger and more teeny-bopper giddy than that. Yet I’d suggest Bieber is not actually age-appropriate for Bouchard. Nice that Bouchard seized upon a fellow Canuck and all, and they’d make a cutsie glam couple. It’s unclear who she meant by “they.” And Bouchard was good-natured about it in her giggly response: “Justin Bieber.”Īt this point, I’ll leave it for the Outrage Bloc to further slice-and-dice Smith for her excruciating sexism and infantilism, as many - within the reporting profession and without - have already done via Twitter and other social media.īut since Bouchard has put it out there, I have to ask: Justin Bieber? So maybe Smith, a former tennis champion, was merely following marching orders from her bosses. Instead, Smith made this inquiry on behalf, apparently, of Bouchard’s admirers in the stands: “A lot of them are male, and they want to know, if you could date anyone in the world of sports, of movies - I’m sorry, they asked me to say this - who would you date?” We’re not talking Xs and Os tennis strategy here. There was tons of stuff that interviewer Samantha Smith could have explored, even in the slap-dash context of a post-match chat primarily intended to entertain the audience. It had been a hard-fought three-set upset against Ana Ivanovic and the first time any Canadian has advanced to the semis at that Grand Slam event. “ saboteur”, in Trésor de la langue française informatisé, 2012.In the annals of stupid questions posed by an interviewer - right up there with Barbara Walters many years ago asking Katherine Hepburn “What kind of a tree are you, if you think you’re a tree?” - was the query put to Eugenie Bouchard by a courtside ditz after the Canadian tennis star had just won her quarter-final match at the Australian Open Sunday.Saboteur m ( plural saboteurs, feminine saboteuse) Saboter ( “ to sabotage ” ) +‎ -eur, from sabot ( “ clog ” ) (where mill workers would throw their wooden clogs into the machinery to make it halt or break down.)
