Over the last few days I've seen through my social media newsfeed the outrage over a photo Michael Buble posted. In normal curiosity I decide to click on the link to see what all the buzz was about.

Before I say anything, tell me what you all notice first.

He's wearing a black dial Daytona.

I had to google to find something offensive and I do not find it offensive. Some negative people will always find something wrong with everything.

cangelosijeff · 19 April 2015, 05:02 AM

Platona!!

nick c · 19 April 2015, 05:05 AM

Platona indeed

MonBK · 19 April 2015, 05:08 AM

The barn door.

locutus49 · 19 April 2015, 05:23 AM

I'm outraged. He owns a Platona and I don't.

The ultra politically correct crowd will always find something to make a fuss about. Yawn.

How about that platona, though!

Divingdeep87 · 19 April 2015, 05:26 AM

I'm a watch guy! But i always spot a good ass first! (And so does my girlfriend, love her haha)

AF_Rob · 19 April 2015, 05:42 AM

I know what I noticed first! ... These people who are supposedly outraged need to get off their high horse and quit pretending that they are perfect.

The fact that his wife took the picture with her husband in it makes her awesome IMO.

When you wear shorts like that, you're begging for attention.

Hysterical. I saw the platinum Daytona and assumed that everyone got mad about that. It took me about 60 seconds to notice the girl.

Me too. It's sad, actually. What has happened to me?

One of the few times I disagree with you.

I think that toosch is lovely.

I would prefer the platona, but that's only because I'm getting older. 10 years ago my priorities were different.

I am confused about the uproar tho. People are way too sensitive and with the explosion of social media opions are way too easy to share.

So what's the reason for the Outrage? The woman behind him in shorts? Seriously?

Or the fact she isn't wearing a Rolex?

People are "outraged" that he surreptitiously photographed her and that he is making comments about her appearance that straddle the line between pervy and disdainful.

Oh, ok. I wasn't aware of his commentary about it. Seems silly to me. Who cares if he's pervy? I admit, I don't even know who he is.

He's a famous singer. I actually like some of his jazz standards. He also likes to make jokes, he had a TV special and was pretty funny. This particular joke might have been best shared with friends, and not the world.

I don't really have an opinion one way or the other, but I can empathize with the girl. If you were out and about and someone famous took a less than flattering photo of you and distributed it to the world, might not feel so good.

Then don't go out in public wearing ridiculous shorts

Why do you say it's a "less than flattering photo"? She was probably feeling good about herself, until she read your post.

nickb732 · 19 April 2015, 08:11 AM

Platona!
