Full Frontal Friday


It is that time again, and as you can see, Daniel Craig is front and center for your viewing pleasure. There is also at least one other A lister and lots more that I think you will enjoy. All the photos are NSFW, unless of course you work in porn, in which case, please e-mail me about any job openings.

If you are under the legal age for viewing nudity, then by all means come back in a few years. I have always wondered what people were smoking who made 18 the legal age in most places to view nudity or buy Playboy, but at the same time allow entrance into R rated and NC17 films when you are 17. Since most of these are film clips from those same R rated films, you would think that 17 would be the legal age.

If you are ready to start viewing, then click here.

Four For Friday

#1 - This B+ film actor who has been the star of some of the biggest films of all time had to have his stomach pumped this past week after he was found in his overseas hotel room unconscious. Seems he took too many pills from his growing collection.

#2 - Where oh where has the A list film star been hiding? Well he needs to go to rehab but doesn't want to ruin his good guy image. So, he has been hiding out at a home he owns which he has turned into his own personal rehab facility complete with counselor and doctor.

#3 - The celebrity musician and the celebrity socialite. Who gave who, the herp? They both are accusing the other. Hell with as many people as they have both been through, this one will be tough to figure out.

#4 - This NBA MVP caliber player played much better this year. The reason? Well it could have something to do with the girlfriend of his wife who moved in with them? Her reason for moving in? To give our NBA player variety each night so he doesn't stray. Apparently late nights on the road last year looking for sex are a thing of the past.

Random Photos Part One

My photos got all messed up today, but Adrien Brody and Elsa Pataky look good enough to be on top.
If I didn't tell you this was Denise Richards would you have known?
Eve looks amazing and so she gets two photos in a row. The first with the always lovely Heidi Klum.

The second with Gerard Butler. He was in FFF last week. Who is going to be there this week?

Chloe Lattanzi - Los Angeles
Kind of reminds me in the scene in Fletch when Geena Davis is trying to flip the bird and can't quite get the finger to do what she wants it to do. I'm just wondering if his brothers told him to do it or he just did it on his own.
John Stamos and Marlee Matlin would make a great couple if not for the fact that Marlee is married and has about 7 kids. OK, not seven. I think it is three, but honestly I am too lazy to go look it up.


Now, I know Mariah Carey is a diva. You know Mariah Carey is a diva. So, this hardly even raises an eyebrow compared to her other diva acts. But, she went to the Hard Rock yesterday to do a charity auction. She was the only celebrity. The only one. No B or C or D or anyone. Just her, and as a part of her rider, she insisted on a red carpet and backdrop for her. No one else walked the carpet. Only her.
Jakob Dylan - New York
Jesse Blaze Snider - Los Angeles
Geri Halliwell is the guest this week on Friday Night Project which is hilarious.
The Raveonettes - Melbourne



Slash - New York
If it isn't one of the Hough siblings it is the other. Derek Hough takes his shot at a dancing partner by getting with Shannon Elizabeth. The big photo is kind of like watching an 80's made for tv movie with Ricky Schroder. An After School Special would even be better.
You have to admit that even though Milo Ventimiglia is a 30 year old who loves teenagers, he really is a good looking guy.
Matthew McConaughey channeling his inner Fabio on the set of his new film.

The PR stuff sucked again. So, again this week, I look to all of you to post something. This week, you can link to whatever you want to plug again. I am hoping though that you will focus on the story or post you saw this week that you were the most interested in and that you want to share.

Each day I get lots and lots of suggestions for stories and things people want me to see or write about or both. These are the three this week that I found really interesting, but did not have time to write about.

Twisted sent me this story about a boy in Texas who got a call on his cell phone from his father who is stationed in Iraq. Unfortunately for the kid he took the call while in class, and the school suspended him for talking on a cell phone in class.

Here is the story.

I am sure Twisted will post the e-mail address of the principal in case you would like to send a lovely note.

This one was sent in by Julia. It is about the 20 year old daughter of a Norwegian member of their Parliament who killed herself last week after allegedly receiving low scores on a Scientology stress test. The CO$ says they are not responsible and that the girl's anorexia and mental problems are what caused her to commit suicide. I will let you decide. You can read the story here.

Finally, Elyse sent me an article from the Yale Daily news. It is about an art experiment from a student at the school that will probably shock the hell out of you. You can read about it here.

Little Red Shizzle


In the next year or so, your child may come running up to you and bring you a copy of Dianetics to read. Whoops. Wrong house. Anyway in your house your kid will come up running with the book Where's The Cheese? Seems as if Snoop Dogg is becoming an author of children's books. His first one will be targeted at children growing up in urban environments. I can only imagine that a book entitled Where's The Cheese will probably be on par with the socio-political messages of Dr. Seuss, and will no doubt refer to the US government's infamous cheese program. Of course it could just be about a rat looking for cheese. The rat could be called Ben and there could be a song about it and maybe Michael Jackson could sing it.

Seriously, I think it will be a great book and as a bonus for the adults. When your kids have outgrown the book, each page can be turned into rolling paper with the simple to follow diagram that comes with every book.

Daily Mirror Blind Item

Which singer is intending to come out to his family this week?

The handsome star apparently can't wait to take them to his favourite camp haunts every Saturday night...

Gary Busey Wants To Move In With You


Gary Busey is being evicted from his Malibu home because he is about $50,000 behind in his rent. From the way Gary is talking, I'm guessing he has the money to pay, he just doesn't want to because he feels the house is unclean. Specifically he thinks that unclean air conditioning vents were making him sick.

Unfortunately for Gary that little argument is not going to get to keep him in his happy home. Hey, and here's an idea. How about not turning the air conditioning on, and then you won't be sick. How does one even notice if the vents are clean or dirty? Knowing Busey, he probably has some type of gadget from the desert that he made from the skin of a lizard which he uses to poke and prod and wand through his home.

Do you get the feeling that Gary can probably keep himself entertained for hours and hours? If you talk to him on the phone, I bet you actually don't have to say anything at all. He will just do all the talking for you.

All I know is that whoever the landlord is, they better be prepared. I have no doubts that if Gary is evicted, that he will be knocking on their door and moving in with them. Hell, he could probably make a fortune charging people to have him come live with them for a week. That would even be a great reality show. "I Live With Gary Busey." Gary comes over and lives with a family for a week, and solves all of their problems.

Was Jessica Simpson Also Trying To Get Pregnant?


You remember when Jessica Simpson was in the hospital for a few days at the end of last month? Do you care? Did you even notice? It's ok. No one really cares. According to her spokesperson Jessica had a kidney infection. According to Star, Jessica had a bladder infection, a urinary tract infection and a bladder infection. That is a whole bunch of infections.

Star says it was caused by Jessica's out of control boozing. They also said she had a pregnancy test while she was there. When it came back negative, Pimpa cried himself to sleep for a week. Instead he gets a baby that is going to be born with eyeliner.

Jessica was allegedly three weeks late which is why she wanted the test. It probably would have been easier to go to a CVS or Rite Aid and just pick up a pregnancy test there instead of drinking and boozing enough so you would land yourself in a hospital. Maybe she thinks she needs the drinking and boozing to be a country star.

I just wonder if she isn't somehow competing with Ashley and wanted to upstage her. If Jessica was pregnant, and it was Tony Romo's baby, it wouldn't matter if Ashlee was knocked up, Jessica was going to get the top spot in the tabloids. The lily white couple of Tony Romo and Jessica Simpson is much more acceptable than Ashlee and her swings both ways future husband.

A Birthday Letter To Suri


Dear Suri,

Allegedly you are two today. I hope you are, and that you are having a great birthday. You probably won't remember your birthday, because hey, you're two. Hopefully you got to sleep in a little, spent an hour or two on the E-meter and then they said you could have the rest of the day off.

I saw your mom was out shopping yesterday, or at least had a bunch of movies. One looked to be Mary Poppins. I think you will enjoy it. Everyone, and when I say everyone, I mean bloggers, and honestly we don't really matter. But in our own heads we matter, and so we like to speculate. A little thing called gossip. Lots of gossip about your family. Anyway, everyone said the movies were part of your birthday gift.

I know that everyone has said your birthday is today, but I'm wondering if maybe it wasn't a few months ago, and no one told you. It's not like you can stand up, and say, "hey, I was born in January" or something like that. If you did, some embarrassing questions might be asked.

You are growing up so fast. Well, I guess you are. No one has seen you in a few months. Already doing ethics checks huh? Well two year old girls have lots inside that you are probably trying to hide. You probably are closing in on like 3 feet now. Another six or seven inches and you will be right there with dad. I know he probably doesn't like you calling him dad. More likely he has you call him sir, or Academy Award Nominee, or Grand Poobah.

All kidding aside, I really do hope you have a great birthday. I hope that you laugh and giggle and smile all day. Open lots of presents and break them all in two minutes. Get cake on your face, and just have fun. Stay close to mom and you will be ok.

Who Knew Jessica Biel Would Be The Nice One?


Did you know that Jessica Biel and Jake Gyllenhaal were doing a movie together? Kind of the perfect couple if you ask me. No demands for either of them. But, that is not the point of this post. The pair is filming a movie entitled Nailed which is filming in South Carolina.

One of the great things about the internet is that everyone wants to contribute gossip. Last week we got the great Ry Ry hissy fit from Ryan Reynolds in Boston, and this week we get Jake the Diva in South Carolina.

On Wednesday Jake was filming a scene in the South Carolina State House. This was going to be one day of filming. Had to get done, because the producers had not made any arrangements for any other days inside the building. Everyone was on their very best behavior and knew they would have only one chance. But someone forgot to tell Jake.

“He was complaining that the room was too small, complaining about the temperature, complaining about his chair,” our source says. “It was like watching a two-year old have a meltdown every five minutes.”

He complained so long, and so often that the crew was forced to shut down early, and the producers had to arrange for an extra day of filming. I'm just guessing that Jake has maybe found some southern loving and just wants to do everything in his power to stay a little longer. To be fair to Jake, the director of the film is the same guy who directed I Heart Huckabees and caused Lily Tomlin to almost kill herself. Word has it that James Caan who was also starring in this film quit after being abused by the director.

On the other hand, the person you would think would be more diva has actually been a joy. Jessica Biel has talked to anyone and everyone. She has posed for hundreds and hundreds of photos and even was seen turning cartwheels on the grounds of the State House. It seems that everyone in the town has fallen in love with Jessica Biel. And why not? She has her dog with her and her "trainer" and best of all, no Justin.

Ted C. Blind Item

Dangling Wrangler’s at it again. You know Dangle-babe: He’s the base-boy the whole world seems to love no matter how many episodes he efs up, (via himself, the law or the ladies). Indeed, the Dangle dude’s been in trouble myriad times with too many drugs, too many women who were married to other men or by just being a plain ol’ mean, drunk bastard.

Therefore, the publicist’s quick fix was required (rehab and several staged photo shoots with Dangling looking brow-furrowed and fine with fans and such). Worked for a bit. But, then—as usually happens when one cleans up for a press release instead of for a personal mission—Dangling’s not only back to the booze and slut races, he’s hitting the hard drugs more than ever. Looks like crap, too. But the gals don’t seem to mind—they actually like screwing a famous guy who’s good (for about five minutes these days) with his huge, never-washed zucchini.

Alas, even the quickie quickies don’t do it for D.W. any more. Could that be why he’s getting so bored with dumpee broad after dumpee babe that he’s now secretly courting his latest unluckiest girlfriend’s (very underage) daughter?

Why the hell don't people like this ever get caught? No, in Hollywood, they get Oscars, don’t they?

Today's Blind Items

This is probably not the guy daddy wants her to bring home, so she didn't. The daughter of this fashion guru was spotted at an event getting hot and heavy with a B+ rap star. They had been doing the bathroom runs all night and spent lots of time groping and kissing, but decided not to use the bathroom for doing the dirty. Instead, they made their way outside, got into his limo for 20 minutes and then came back inside looking, well, like they had just spent 20 minutes in the back of a limo doing the nasty. Shortly thereafter, our rap star took his leave, and a different woman home with him.

I always get suspicious of people who make claims against celebrities and then suddenly are having photo shoots for tabloids. Not random out on the street photos, but full on, coming over to your house and pose for them photos. That's not to say that Jessica Gibson isn't about ten times more attractive than Rob Lowe's wife, but I just start getting really wary about their claims.
Helen Mirren seems to be really happy.
I don't think the whole basketball thing is going to fool anyone Hayden. Maybe Hayden Christensen should head over to Spain. You know. Get some sun. See Javier.

Which snobby celeb refused to play a UK show because the private jet laid on wasn't the "correct" private jet? The diva doesn't even realise that she was lucky to be invited!

Javier Bardem Gets In Touch With His Feminine Side


I will have to say this for Penelope Cruz. She does manage to find guys who are not afraid of their feminine side. First there was Tom Cruise, and now Javier Bardem. Over the weekend Javier was spotted at a club holding hands and rubbing the thigh of another guy. Now, of course in Europe, people tend to be much closer, and just because is repeatedly rubbing the thigh of someone means absolutely nothing.

Hell, I could walk into any restaurant in Spain right now and sit down next to a woman. I'm sure she would be thrilled to have my big fat, stubby fingers rubbing her thighs while I looked at her like she was a burger and fries.

Of course as you FFF readers know, Javier has a little problem if you know what I mean and so this friend could have been searching in vain for what we know isn't really there. To see the video of Javier and his new friend, click here.

Thanks Renee.

Mark Ronson Likes Bush


Mark Ronson has found someone to love and it turns out it is the daughter of Gavin Rossdale. You know the secret daughter? The one that almost broke up his marriage. Her name is Daisy Lowe and as far as I know she is no relation to Rob Lowe so therefore will not have to answer any questions about sexual harassment. She will have to talk about what its like for an 18 year old to run around with Mark and Amy Winehouse.

Apparently Daisy was his Mark's secret date to the BRIT's in February and has been wining and dining her all over the world since. Well that is one way to make an 18 year old fall in love with you. Honestly, it is probably the only way a 32 year old is going to get an 18 year old. Oh, you didn't know Mark was that old? Yep, but you know what, Daisy is a lingerie model so she is used to old guys staring at her and thinking about her that way. The only difference is that Mark kind of pays for that privilege in an odd kind of way. It would be kind of funny to see Mark Ronson having to call Gavin "Dad."

It has been awhile since Gavin admitted that Daisy was his. So now of course Daisy's mom wants child support for the past 18 years plus interest. Guess Gwen better get back to work.

Eddie Murphy Found A New Sucker


No, not like sucker as in someone sucking. Because then what would Johnny do. Instead, I meant sucker as in someone who believes the stuff Eddie Murphy is shoveling. According to In Touch, Eddie is dating a waitress with the name of Lara LaRue. Seriously. That is her name. Sounds like a tranny name doesn't it? Maybe she is a tranny and that's why Eddie is allegedly in love. No, she isn't a tranny. I don't think. She is the half-sister of Eva LaRue who is on CSI:Miami.

Eddie has been sending Lara flowers everyday and just being his usual charming self. According to the source, Eddie is already talking to her about moving in. Moving in by the way does not really mean sleeping with Eddie. It just means moving in so the world thinks he is sleeping with her.

For her part, Lara had this to say. "I know Eddie. He's an amazing guy. I respect him and he respects me." Wow. That is true love. Amazing and mutual respect. That won't last. Oh, if you want to hang out with Lara or see her up close, and you live in the LA area she works over at Sushiya on Sunset. The food is really good there, and it sounds like a floor show is a real possibility.

Lara is the one on the left in the photo.

Evan Rachel Wood Is An Ass


Evan Rachel Wood is just not having a good week is she? First, with the exception of Marilyn Manson disciples, the entire world goes off on her for her Dita von Teese tribute. Now, she is after whatever remaining fans she might have. Turns out Evan doesn't appreciate any fan who mixes up her name.

"People always call out, 'Hi Rachel.' I hate it. I'm not Rachel. That's my middle name. They're all dyslexic. Can't they see Evan comes before Rachel?"

Wow. Maybe they could call out things like, "hey, you. Yeah you. The chick who has sex with a guy old enough to be your dad."

Or, maybe the fans could try, "Doe s he call out your name in bed or Dita's?" "Does he like it that you have a boy's name?"

I know why you have the Rachel in your name. It is so casting agents will know you are a woman. Plus, if you put Evan and Wood together it sounds like Ed Wood which would suck, because he's dead. It could also be confused with Evinrude which is a boat motor. The thing is though, your name is confusing, and I hate typing it. I'm sure others are just excited to meet you until they realize it isn't Rachel Bilson they are meeting.

One thing you need to realize as you reach drinking age is that without your fans, you will be nothing. See, the entertainment business works by fans either buying tickets to see you in a film, or caring enough about you to watch you on television when they have hundreds of other things from which to choose.

The parents of all your fans are already scared of your boyfriend, and if you go around pissing off the rest of your fans by calling them dyslexic, there won't be anyone left who even gives a good damn about you anymore.

Tommy Scissorhands?


It almost happened. The role that really set up Johnny Depp and launched him into his man crush thing with Tim Burton almost didn't happen. In a recent interview, Johnny said that he really wanted the lead role in Edward Scissorhands, but that he studio had its heart set on Tom Cruise. They really liked Johnny, but apparently they wanted a huge star, and Tom Cruise was the it guy then. Look how times have changed Tommy boy.

The studio went so far as to offer Tom Cruise the role and told Johnny that it was close but Tom had got the part. Well, the next day, the studio called and said they had a change of heart, and they felt Tom Cruise wasn't edgy enough for the role.

Although I'm sure the studio was just blowing sunshine up Johnny's ass, the thing is they actually got it right. Can you actually imagine Tom Cruise in that role? That would have been an absolute disaster.

President Gets A Model Part 2


Well if the French President can get a model half his age, then why not the President of Russia? Vladimir Putin who is 56 has apparently walked out on his wife so he can shack up with a 24 year old woman who is a former model, actress and gymnast. Alina Kabaeva met the President when she won a seat in the Russian Parliament. There are some who say however that she won the seat because of the President.

Before Putin leaves office next month it is rumored that a law will be passed which will allow him to divorce his wife of over 20 years without any of the normal divorce laws applying. The reason is that Putin wants to get married in June.

Hell yes he better get married to her before then, because once he is out of office he is just going to be an out of work middle aged guy who is soon going to develop a vodka belly by watching reruns of all his old accomplishments all day long. He will be laying around the house all day while she goes to work and when she comes home will find him on the couch, naked with a block of cheese, and passed out from drinking to much.

It should be a hell of a life. Oh, and on a side note, if the first Mrs. Putin happens to read this, just be quiet, take whatever money he gives you and run, run, run. Head to New York. You should be pretty safe there and the former First Lady of France is organizing some kind of First Wives Club for political leaders.

Today's Blind Items

This B list television actor who is the star of his own drama series on a network has a very odd sexual habit. It seems that he doesn't actually have sex. Oh, he hits on women and brings them home or more often to a hotel since he is married, but he never actually has sex with him. He acts like he is going to have sex with them, but when push comes to shove, he tells each and every one of his conquests that he prefers watching. So, he has them pleasure themselves while he watches. If they balk, or when they finish, he always says he has an early call and sends them on his way. Never does anything but watches.

Random Photos Part One

David Beckham could be praying the Lakers win, or that Victoria gets an ass.
Emmy Rossum looks amazing and almost got the top spot. But, you know. David Beckham/Emmy Rossum. It is kind of like who would go first on a talk show. As much as I love Emmy, for some reason I don't think she's bumping David Beckham.
I think there was way too much Katherine Heigl for awhile, but it is nice to see an actress who is eating junk food and not because it is written in a scene. The fact that she also drinks, chain smokes, and still looks good is pretty depressing for everyone else in the world.

k.d. lang - Sydney
I actually kind of wished I had watched TRL for the first time in my life. Jason Segel, Mila Kunis, Bill Hader and Russell Brand. Plus as a bonus you get the elbow of Kristen Bell.
Julio Iglesias Jr. signing copies of his new CD. Is anyone in that family ugly? I mean, I know they are all pretty boys and that some women would rather be with someone like me. Unfortunately I think that is a theory that has only actually be written and when it comes to a nightclub, you throw me and Julio together, that theory gets disproved really quickly.
Slap some fake breasts on her and put on some music and Evan Rachel Wood is Dita von Teese. Seriously, you know she knew people would say that, so why on earth would she do it? Does Marilyn really like looking at himself so much in the mirror that he makes all his girlfriends dress and look like him?

I know high waisted skirts and shorts are the thing right now. But, as a guy when I see an outfit like this on a woman who isn't ugly, this is my first thought. She has got the saggiest breasts in the world. They are drooping all the way down to her waist. Probably not true, but the visual is what guys clue into, and that is what I see.
The happy photo of the day goes to Morgan Spurlock at the premiere of his new film about Osama bin Laden. Sponsored of course by a liquor company. If you look at later photos of the evening, Morgan enjoyed some of that liquor and then enjoyed it some more. I am glad he finally got married though. Although I would have never guessed his wife was the tattoo type. Of course, looking at her I didn't think she would go on camera talking about her sex life either, and I was wrong about that.
This seems familiar. Hmmmm.
Liam Neeson and Frank McCourt. I have a craving for some Bushmills.
Kate Moss always finds the guys who are that close to death and just helps them right along. I do like the photo though.
Todd Rundgren - Miami

Wow. How about the Imperioli family. No one is really going to their house and trick or treating.
There were other people in the chairs, but Tommy's ego blew them all up.
It has been too long Reese Witherspoon. Doing your workouts at a gym now so I can't watch you. I've been sad. Kind of creeps you out the way I wrote that huh? Creeps me out also. She does look hot though.
I am still on the fence about Robert Downey Jr. playing a superhero. He is a great actor, but is he Iron Man? I am not a comic book film loving guy, but I will see Iron Man because of him, and Batman because of Heath so I do have an open mind. Just not sure how it is going to be.

Michelle Rodriguez Only Has Bathroom Sex


In an interview with Latina magazine, Michelle Rodriguez basically goes off on a rant about people who are always trying to out her. It is a great rant as far as celebrity rants go, and the only thing that stopped it was she had a burp she just couldn't quite get out. I know, but it is what she said.

Well towards the end of the rant, things get a little more interesting and basically makes me wonder what living in Michelle's world is really like.

"I picture them turning into pigs, slime coming out the side of their mouth, and I picture them jer*ing off," she says of the journalists and bloggers who she believes are constantly trying to 'out' her: "I don't answer those questions. I just keep it to myself and it's nobody's business. If I wanna f*ck a girl, a boy, a dog—that's my business. That's why there's bathroom doors."

While I for one am all for public sex and sex in unconventional places, I tend to draw the line at bathroom sex simply because, well it's a bathroom, and you never know. It is kind of like bedspreads at a hotel. You know that every guest has either sat on them naked or had sex on them, so why do you continue to follow exactly in their footsteps?

I am hoping that Michelle meant bedroom doors because if she has having sex exclusively in bathrooms, she is probably not getting much privacy or enjoying the comforts of sex in a bed. You know that big thing in the middle of the "bed"room.

Of course if you are going to have sex with a dog, you might want to confine that to a bathroom, well, because dogs shed. Might be willing to have sex with a dog, but no one wants to wake up covered in dog hair.

Extras - Not Much Fun


The Daily Mirror blind item seems to be entirely lifted from the show Extras. Therefore because I don't feel qualified to talk about Cynthia Nixon's breast cancer or have a desire to talk about the 100 stories that have been printed about Paris bad mouthing The Whore and then apologizing to her later, and just feel sad for Cameron Diaz on the passing of her dad, I am going to talk about Extras.

I'm sure everyone will disagree with me, but I hate it. Hate is actually a strong word. I will say that it is painful to watch. That is a much more accurate statement. I watched the first three episodes and have no desire to see any of it again.

I like Ricky Gervais, but this is not the role for him. He basically only has one character and it fits in certain places, but not here. What worked in The Office doesn't work on the set of a film. It just comes off as forced and contrived. The only reason to watch it at all is for the guest stars. I guess the pain of 90 minutes of episodes was falling in love with Kate Winslet. She was amazing. Brilliant. In the bonus footage there is even more of her, and that was worth it. Ben Stiller and Ross Kemp were also really good and Stephen Merchant (co-creator of this and The Office) who plays Ricky's agent is hilarious as well.

The problem with the show is that I spent all of my time skipping through any dialogue by the two main characters to get to the scenes involving other people.

Maybe it was just because it was the first three episodes. If you think I am wrong, then you need to convince me. I have never been so happy to be done with a DVD.

Daily Mirror Blind Item

Which Hollywood starlet is so snobby, she got producers to take back a line from a poorly-paid male extra in her latest movie - as he is a "nobody"?

Defamer And The Marilyn Monroe Sex Tape


Let me start by saying I like Defamer and their site, and this should in no way be taken as a slam against them. After the Marilyn Monroe sex tape story was released, they took it upon themselves to do a little debunking, and to try and establish that the tape sold for $1.5M was just a big hoax.

They invited three Marilyn Monroe experts who attempted to break down the hoax bit by bit. I'm not 100% sure if a Marilyn tape exists or not. One thing I am sure of though is that this debunking didn't really debunk anything.

In a very lengthy article, the authors contempt and dislike for the broker of the sale is obvious and it seems to color everything they say. Just because you don't like someone doesn't mean they don't have the goods. Just ask David Hans Schmidt.

All their debunking does is ask more questions. It doesn't provide any answers at all. It presents possible reasons why the tape might not be considered real, but again their only real reason is that they don't like the broker, and all three writers are convinced they know everything that ever happened in Marilyn's life and she would never do a sex tape.

Here are some of their arguments.

"You see instantly that it's Marilyn Monroe - she has the famous mole." This is a quote by Keya Morgan, which is one of the flimsiest pieces of evidence ever presented. Just because this alleged film has a person with a mole, it's instantly Marilyn Monroe?

No, of course it isn't instantly Marilyn Monroe, but if the tape does exist, and one thinks it might be Marilyn, then yes, the mole would be something one would expect to see.

Essentially Morgan is claiming that this is a bootleg copy of a classified FBI film. So if an original is classified, why would the FBI allow this public brouhaha in the press and not stop this sale from taking place? Why would this film copy not be destroyed?

Just because something is still considered classified and would not be released under FOIA rules doesn't mean it really is still classified in the sense that someone will be killed if they saw it. The FBI would look pretty silly trying to rush out and stop the sale of a sex tape. Just because they haven't released one, doesn't mean they would stop the sale of one.

Keya Morgan claims to respect Joe DiMaggio (it is alleged that DiMaggio tried to pay the informant $25,000 for the film and the offer was refused), and Marilyn Monroe even greater. Then why would Mr. Morgan allow this sale considering his "respect" of DiMaggio and Monroe? If he was such a collector looking to protect Marilyn Monroe especially, why would he not keep this supposed film safely in his own collection?

Ummm. He needed money. And the guy he sold it to said he wasn't going to release it.

Like I said, I am not convinced either way. You read the article, and you decide.

Rupert Grint Is A Stud


I know, I know. You are asking yourself if I am talking about the redhead in the Harry Potter films and if I have gone mad. But, do you remember a few months ago when Lily Allen was getting over being dumped. Who did she call? Rupert Grint. Rupert had to shuffle some other ladies but made time for Ms. Allen. Now, it turns out that Lindsay Lohan was hitting on Rupert last summer. Now granted, Lindsay will hit on just about anything, but still, Rupert must have something besides money which keeps bringing the ladies back.

I just love the fact that a guy considered a geek, is actually quite the stud. Plus, he hates Lindsay Lohan. So it is kind of like a win/win.

"I met Lindsay last summer and she talked about herself a lot.

"She said she was going to win an Oscar before she turns 25. I just kept thinking, 'But you can’t act'.

Ahhh. You just have to know that last sentence is making you all smile like it is the last day of school. Makes you feel all warm and fuzzy.

At Least She Has A Fan


Debbie "Call Me Deborah" Gibson apparently has so many fans all over the world that she can afford to get a restraining order taken out against the President of her fan club. Jordi Bassas Puigdollers is a Spanish taxi driver who has managed to earn enough driving a cab to attend every one of Debbie's shows since 2002. Good thing Debbie confines herself primarily to Atlantic City shows. Sucks for all of her fans that have to visit the hellhole that is known as Atlantic City, but easy for stalkers.

Look, I will be the first to say that stalker laws are on the books for a reason and I have seen someone very close to me get killed by a stalker. I love the stalker laws. I know that when the guy showed up at Debbie's house over the weekend and slipped a note under her door, it must have been a shock. She did the right thing by getting a restraining order. For some reason, probably because the guy gave an interview to the media, I find him more likable than your average everyday stalker. I think it is also because I was team Tiffany, and if you are a long time blog reader, then you know why. It is kind of like Coke/Pepsi and Burger King/McDonalds although In-N-Out rules.

In the interview he explained his actions. "I wanted to use the fan club to help people who can't go see her to get autographs and photos." I would say that he probably sells them on e-bay, but they probably would not go for much.

The restraining order keeps Jordi away from Debbie personally, but he can still go to any of her shows. He just has to make sure his seats are no closer than 90 feet from the stage. Hey, she still has to make a buck. He will be there as she takes the stage next month in Atlantic City. The homeless people should be out in full force on the boardwalk by then. Warm weather and tourists brings them out like nothing else.

Alicia Keys Clarifies


Alicia Keys took to Ryan Seacrest's radio show yesterday to try and "clarify statements" she made in an interview with Blender Magazine. She insists she was happy with the article, but just wishes she could change a line or two. Alicia said her comments were misinterpreted, and that she just couldn't believe the article caused so much controversy. Here is what she had to say exactly.

"I feel that I wasn't a hundred per cent clear on what I was saying and so, because of that, it got slightly misinterpreted, and somehow it got misinterpreted that I was saying that the government was creating gangsta rap - and that's not what I was saying.

I thought it was a pretty simple sentence she used, and she said gangsta rap was created by the government.

"What I was saying was that the term gangsta rap was so over sloganized during that time... That's what I was trying to talk about."

Ahh. So the government created the slogan gangsta rap. Kind of like the government printing office was out there making bumper stickers that said Gangsta Rap and the colors were red white and blue on a stars and stripes background. PSA's were filmed with 41 and 43 doing rap while Clinton played, sax, Gore did the robot, Cheney had a gun and Quayle played with his dolls in a corner.

"In so many ways, everyday people, as well as the government, could have really done so much more to sorta (sic) obliterate and eradicate the things that were going on in the communities at that time that forced the artists to discuss and talk about, so strongly, what they saw, what they lived with."

I agree that the government has not done much to help those struggling in our own country. It is a fair and valid point, and if she had said that originally instead of after a label pr person thought of it, things would be much better. I do think that to a certain extent rap took off because of the conditions in inner cities and that the original artists were expressing what they saw and felt. HOWEVER, what it has turned into is a misogynistic free for all with guys out to prove they also come from the streets when many of them actually come from the upper middle class.

"I wasn't saying that I'm a conspiracy theorist, and I wasn't saying that I'm anti-anyone because anybody who knows my character knows that I'm a very positive person... My only aim is to uplift people and spread love.

Actually, she didn't really disprove the claim she is a conspiracy theorist because she made no mention of her claim that the government killed B.I.G and Tupac so there would be no powerful black leaders. Sorry Barack. She must not consider you powerful, or perhaps not black. Sorry Bob Johnson, you don't count either. Apparently you can't be worth a billion dollars and still qualify as a leader. Sheila Johnson? You must be kidding. No, not you either Oprah. Sorry. Richard Parsons? Please, like she would consider the Chairman of Time Warner to be powerful.

"You're in an interview for half and hour, 45 minutes... and you're talking about these different thoughts and ideas and I think... there's a way that I didn't exactly clarify what I meant to the point where he (the journalist) could misinterpret it. "I don't regret doing this interview; overall it was a great article. It was merely a line or two that has provoked all of this madness. I regret that a negative spin has been put (on it)."

I regret that a negative spin was put on it as well, because I really like you. Give me a call, and lets talk about the whole killing off Tupac thing and go from there.

Today's Blind Items

Some of my favorite blind items have come from the accountant and in honor of it being tax day here in the US, I give you the best one he has given me so far for this year. There are plenty more, but this is the best. The very best. It is actually one of the best of all time as far as jaw dropping goes.

This A list actor. 95% of the time film. Single and allegedly never married. This is the first year he used this accountant and when he was reviewing the forms he noticed that he was listed as single on the tax forms. Our actor then proceeded to tell the accountant that the actor has been married for many years. The fact that he has only seen his foreign wife once in the interim did not change the fact that he was married. Our actor apparently does send money sometimes to his wife, but apparently does so in his corporate name. The accountant got the feeling that the wife actually has no idea who she is actually married to. Our actor meanwhile loves the deduction that comes with being married. It apparently is the one thing he really enjoys about being married. He also uses it as an excuse when a woman tries to pressure him into marriage. He explains to prospective future brides that although he would love to get married to them he is unfortunately already married and the process for divorce will take a year or two. In the meantime why not just live together or be girlfriend and boyfriend. Invariably the relationship dies out before the divorce becomes final. The actor never starts the paperwork and has never been challenged by the IRS about being married. They must not read the tabloids.

Random Photos Part One

The top spot today goes to three gorgeous women who also happened to be taking part in a very important event. Rosario Dawson, Ali Larter and Kerry Washington were in New Orleans for the V to the Tenth event which is the tenth anniversary of V-Day which raises awareness and money to stop all forms of violence against women and girls.
I don't even want to tell you how many cowboy hats and huge belt buckles I have gone through today. Here is Brad Paisley and the lovely Kimberly Williams.

Brooks & Dunn featuring Keith Urban - Nashville
Amy Adams is all back to normal now. I'm just glad that whatever she is doing on the set of her new film is not permanent.

Jewel and Ty Murray. Even though Ty kind of looks like Ross Perot in a cowboy hat, I somehow doubt Ross has ever ridden a bull.
Eva Longoria for Bebe. It truly is amazing what they can do with computers these days.
Just thought we would check in with Diana DeGarmo. She growed up real nice.
Christina Ricci is obviously a big believer in the breakfast of champions. Diet Coke and a cigarette.
Crystal Gayle must have a 40 year headache. It has to hurt. I'm telling you. When I saw the photo of Crystal Gayle it made me think of a film, and remarkably it has nothing to do with porn. The movie is called Confessions of a Superhero. It is a documentary that you have to rent, or if you have NetFlix you can just watch it instantly online. No, this is not an ad for NetFlix. I'm just saying that you don't have to use a spot in your queue. You have to see this film. If you have any interest in Hollywood at all, you need to see it. The Crystal Gayle reference will become applicable if you watch it.

Now it is time for conspiracy theories. First, Nicole Kidman is like six months pregnant right? When is she going to show? If you look at photos from last night, the only time there is a bump is when Keith is showing it off. Otherwise you can't see it. Now, I want to direct you to the left side of Nicole Kidman's waist. Where the rest of us would have love handles, I see something oddly shaped under her dress. Is it a bone? It can't be a corset because she is pregnant right? It looks too solid for a love handle. Is it a fat suit? I know, I know, but someone please explain it to me.

Yes, yes. Keanu Reeves in Australia. But check out the interviewer. At some point there has to be some charity you are missing. Case in point, the interviewer seems to be lacking a Jessica Alba pray it isn't 50 Cent's baby bracelet.
Kenny Chesney - Nashville
Julia Roberts and Clive Owen on the set of their new film.
Josh Duhamel and Fergie obviously enjoyed the hell out of their dinner together.

Marcia, Marcia, Marcia. Where was this cleavage when you were on The Brady Bunch and I could have used, you know, a little boost if you know what I am saying.
I think Miley Cyrus looks lovely.
Since lightning does not seem to be a strong possibility here today, I am going to go ahead and say it. Jennifer Lopez looks really good. She still has a five foot growth she needs to get rid of, but she looks good.
Click on this picture and I swear it looks like it was taken in a fun house mirror. The camera lens with the circle. I don't know. I didn't get much sleep last night.
LeAnn Rimes - Nashville

Does it look like to any of you that Tim McGraw seems to be wasting away?
Uma Thurman, Robert Redford and Meryl Streep. I love the photo, but can Robert Redford even open his eyes anymore?
Snoop Dogg and Taylor Swift. For some reason, Snoop was the only one who chose to wear this ensemble at the CMT Awards last night. So all week I have been thinking of the following scenario and just know it will be priceless. Wango Tango is occurring here in LA in May. It basically is just a conglomeration of singers who get to perform for 15 minutes each. Anyway, the lineup includes the Jonas Brothers, Miley Cyrus and Snoop. I want to see the die hard fans of Snoop interact with the fans of Miley and the Jonas brothers. I have an entire commentary running through my head but fear it would be way too offensive to share. I love Snoop.
I don't know why I am obsessed with the Spanish royal couple. It's odd. They are smiling today which is good because I really didn't think they could. Of course their smiles are plastic and exactly the same as well as the clothes which look as if they were designed to coordinate with the logo of the factory they were visiting.
Paula Abdul sings country. No, just a bad dream.

The World Of WD

Something new and interesting that I will never do again...

So I'll try anything once. Well, not hard drugs, don't want to get addicted. Oh, and not anything too sexually depraved. And definitely nothing too dangerous that's not carefully monitored. Now that I think about it...I'm not so daring. So how the hell did I end up standing in the middle of a street staring down a car and waiting for it to hit me?

On July 1, a hands-free cell phone law goes into effect here in California. We are the state that needed it the most and from what I understand somehow we are implementing it last. Actually, the law passed 2 years ago BUT for some reason doesn't come into effect until July.

In any case, a friend got me involved in a PSA being shot for this new law. It's quite funny, actually. Bob Saget (Full House, America's Funniest Home Video and now 1 vs. 100) is driving and talking on his cell phone without a hands free and he hits a woman crossing the street, then hits a girl on roller skates, avoids hitting two hot girls jogging, then runs over a little old lady, then hits Ralph Nader and...you get the idea. When it's all done, he has hit 12 people. It's actually hilarious unless you are the one being hit by Bob.

The thing I have always said, from the minute I got into stunt work was that I WOULD NEVER DO A CAR HIT. Never. Yes, it's a stunt. Yes, the car is driven by a professional and Cole McKay is as pro as you can get. Yes, there is a stunt coordinator (Steve Hart) who's top notch, and knows what he's doing. Yes, you get to wear some padding. BUT, and this is a very big BUT, you are still getting hit by a car. An actual car.

There is no way to fake it. There is no camera trick. You can learn how to dissipate the impact. You can learn how to land in the least painful way. But, there is no escaping the fact that you are still hitting concrete when you land, after getting hit by a car.

I saw a friend do one once and I almost ruined the shot by gasping so loud when I watched him get hit. It took everything in me to NOT run over to him afterwards.

So cut to me standing in the middle of the street waiting to get hit by Bob Saget. Replaying the conversations I had with my friend and desperately trying to recall why I actually said yes to this.

We did it three times. Three times. The first time I got stuck on the hood which they had tried to make more comfortable by placing a little bit of padding on it. The problem was that as I landed on the hood, it was so soft, and concrete is so hard, that my subconscious took a little convincing to get me to push off.

The last two I managed to flip myself off, land on my feet and then drop to the ground. So those weren't so bad. And where the camera was placed, the hit sold.

I also wanted everyone to know that I just found out that I'll be stunt coordinating a feature film! That's in May. I also got the job as the spokesperson for the commercial I told you about a few months ago where they made me audition other women who were trying to get my job.

In the meantime, I'm teaching one the producers from Never Back Down how to do high falls. So, I'm keeping busy, and definitely staying away from oncoming cars!

Daily Mirror Blind Item

Which embarrassing celeb is facing a ban from showbiz bashes for annoying Hollywood stars at every party by demanding they have their picture taken with his sister?

Alicia Douvall Is Nuts


I don't actually know Alicia Douvall but apparently she is some big deal in the UK. Alicia has made a career out of sleeping with celebrities, reality shows like Love Island and posing topless in magazines and is thrilled that her daughter is following in her footsteps.

In an interview with Closer magazine, Alicia says that for her 13th birthday her daughter Destiny wanted an iPhone, Kate Moss perfume and a boob job.

I know that Alicia is going to bear the brunt of my rant here, and we will get to the boob job thing in a minute, but when I was 12 years old I got like gifts and prizes valued at like $50 for my birthday. Forgetting that stupid, and highly addictive MTV show about birthdays, I want to know if parents as a matter of course are really dropping $1000 on gifts for a 13 year old on her birthday. Why does a 13 year old need an iPhone? If the kid tells me that every kid in her class has one, I want to know why. Why do 12 and 13 year old kids need an iPhone? I am okay with them having a cell phone for emergencies. I actually think a prepaid cell phone is a very good idea. That is like $50. Not $50 a month, or $500 for the phone and $100 a month, but just $50.

Now, before I go off on the boob job thing, Destiny used to be known as Georgia. Mom changed her name to Destiny so she would have a better chance at becoming an adult star. Isn't that sweet of mom. Now mom does have some standards and feels that no 13 year old girl should get a boob job. Nope. She is a firm believer that Destiny can't have one until her 16th birthday.

"I think a 16-year-old with a nice, sexy figure will do really well as a model as long as she's managed well. That's why I'm happy for Destiny to have a boob job because it will give her a career. She's been at a modelling agency since she was about six. She'll be more famous than Britney!”

That certainly is a career goal that all young women should aspire to. I seriously worry for this world. Maybe I am just old and my rants are no different from the rants of my elders when faced with youth and their demands, but to me at least it seems as if the parents are just as bad, if not worse. In my opinion, a kid would only ask for these things if mom was okay with them, and had encouraged her to put them on a list. Will today's kids talk about having to make do with just $1000 worth of birthday presents while their kids expect $10,000 a year.

I'm just so sick of me, me, me, and wanting to be famous like Britney and Paris and Lindsay, and The Whore. I just can't believe these are the women that all little girls want to grow up to be. And then to have the parents encouraging them to be just like these women just makes it worse. Lindsay made a couple of Disney movies that are appropriate for a kid, but name me anything else any of these four have done that you would want your kid to do. Anyone? Anyone? Now go ask your kid if they know who each of these four women are, and with the possible exception of The Whore, they will know who they all are.


DNfromMN - Movie Review - The Forbidden Kingdom

THE FORBIDDEN KINGDOM

RELEASE DATE: 4/18/08

The Story: Jason (Michael Angarano) a kung-fu movie fanatic finds himself in the Forbidden Kingdom tasked with returning the Monkey King’s staff and ending the tyrannical rule of the Jade Warlord. He has his two teachers the drunken master (Jackie Chan) and the monk (Jet Li), and Sparrow, a young woman whose past is tied to the Jade Warlord. If you are at all interested in this movie, you’re going to enjoy it. If you like Jackie Chan or you like martial arts movies, you’ll like it. If you go into this movie with your brain turned off, or wanting to be distracted and entertained, you’ll like it. If you want to see something that is clever or original, you’ll be disappointed.

This movie follows such a similar plot and has such knock-off images to Crouching Tiger, Hidden Dragon, House of Flying Daggers, Curse of the Golden Flower and any number of actual Hong Kong films (some they even reference in the opening portion of the movie **cough-cough-bride-with-white-hair-cough-cough**)that I spent half the time trying to think of where I’d seen it before. The one thing that wasn’t clichéd about it was that while the white guy was the main character of the story, he wasn’t the hero; it wasn’t about the white guy saving the poor ethnic folk who can’t save themselves. What I did like about it was that it was funny. Jackie Chan nails every punchline, which means that when he’s on screen you’ll be entertained. And he’s still got it athletics-wise even though he’ll be turning 54 this year. He can definitely still hold his own against Jet Li (who despite being younger looks a little rough). Michael Angarano looks like Shia LaBeouf to me, but seems like less of a douchebag. And there really wasn’t much for him to do here. Personally I hope he gets all the good roles that Shia passes on, because unfortunately that’s his lot in life.

What it’s worth: I’m always honest with you guys. If I’d paid full price, I would’ve been a little disappointed. The set budget must have been scant because most scenes look like they were shot on a soundstage with the leftover foam rocks from the original series of Star Trek. This would’ve been a fun rainy afternoon at the cheapy theater, or given the rest of the stuff out there right now, a fun rainy afternoon matinee. I’ll put it at $4.50. If I’d missed a warm sunny day for this, I would’ve felt gypped. It’ll be a good rental, too.

What’s out there right now that’s worth your money:

Drama: I really enjoyed Stop-Loss, but it bummed me out.

Comedy: Miss Pettigrew Lives for a Day (I haven’t seen Leatherheads yet. And I would rather read or watch Wonder Boys again instead of seeing Smart People)

Horror: rent something, The Ruins is the best of what’s out there now, and I felt unsatisfied after paying matinee price. (I haven’t seen nor will I see Prom Night; Shutter was horrible

Action: I liked The Bank Job but I have a soft spot for Jason Statham. Well… not soft anymore after thinking about him…

This Week’s Openers:

Forgetting Sarah Marshallblankprincess posted this review in the comments of random photos last week. “I LOVE all the pictures of the folks from "Forgetting Sarah Marshall!" I was lucky enough to see a free screening of this movie a few weeks ago and I honestly have not laughed so hard in years. I've toyed with writing a review for y'all a la the great dnfrommn, but I haven't had the time. In short, I went to see the movie because I loved “Veronica Mars” and will now watch Kristen Bell in anything, and she was a great sport in the movie. However, Russell Brand was hiLARious, Jason Segel displayed talents (and quite a bit of full frontal...) that I never imagined he had, the supporting characters were terrific (particularly Paul Rudd, Jack McBrayer [Kenneth from "30 Rock"], and a few lovely Hawaiian men) and Mila Kunis was an absolute revelation. This movie is beautiful, sweet, unconventional, so so so funny, and a guaranteed great time for virtually anyone. The vampire puppet musical was priceless, and just that phrase alone should make you want to see this flick. I can’t tell you enough how much I enjoyed it. I am a 36 year old woman who took my 63 year old girlfriend with me, and we both loved it. The audience was really diverse (I guess because the screening was free!) and so not everyone got all of the pop culture references, but most people there seemed to have a really awesome time. Please go see this movie (and no, I am not affiliated with the filmmakers in any way…). It was the funniest thing I’ve seen in such a long time and I hope it does really well. Thanks for reading my little treatise here! :)”

88 Minutes – I love Al Pacino, so I’ll probably see it to see how much scenery chewing he’ll do. Probably won’t pay full price though.

Here's How You Take Care Of Anorexic Models


The French National Assembly passed a bill that would make it illegal for anyone — including fashion magazines, advertisers and Web sites — to publicly incite extreme thinness.

Of course the couture folks are against the whole thing. "Never will we accept in our profession that a judge decides if a young girl is skinny or not skinny," he said. "That doesn't exist in the world, and it will certainly not exist in France."

Well actually it does exist in the world, but the way this law is written it has no chance of working. The law is designed to help the estimated 40,000 anorexic women in France and the women who see the images from the Paris fashion shows each year.

Look. I don't think that watching a woman's bones pop or seeing her ribs or the coffee she drank for breakfast sitting in her stomach is sexy. I understand that designers feel like clothes hang better on overly thin women, but you know what, who cares?

I think this is what France needs to do. To work as a runway model in France you have to be within 5% of whatever the government decides are the normal height and weight proportions for a woman. Simple, easy and effective. Will overly skinny women be out of a job? Probably. But you know what? Lots easier to gain some weight, and if it is just five pounds, it probably won't kill you like losing 40. The other thing this will do is that women won't be forced to chain smoke all day to fight food cravings thereby increasing their overall health. Plus, if France does it, then every country will do it. It will also force print models to gain weight because they will look ridiculous in clothes that are too big for their skinny frames.

I also think that the number one supporter of the bill should be Donatella Versace. She should be out there everyday realizing that there are maybe a million people just like her daughter in the world, and that there will be a million more after those die.

Just because a bunch of designers in Paris who don't even like women think that bone thin is sexy, somehow the world has just followed along and said yes. We wouldn't listen to these guys for anything else, but somehow we believe them when it comes to what makes a woman sexy.

Where Is The Royal We This Time?


I really hate spending more time on this than necessary because neither deserves this much attention, but what is up with Ashlee Simpson and Pete Wentz? The NY Daily News says that Pete's denial is full of crap and that Ashlee and Pete are getting married in May and the baby is due in October.

I'm a little confused because when the couple announced their engagement it was Ashlee or her rep that went on friendsorenemies and used the term we when describing how happy they were. When Pete made his denials yesterday he compared all the media attention to a witch hunt. Why the negativity Pete? If the entire blogging world is wrong, then so be it. What does it matter? Other boys and girls won't want to sleep with you because you knocked up Ashlee? Eyeliner company doesn't give a family discount?

Baby isn't yours? Hmmm? Not sure? Need Maury? Have both of you been exclusive to each other this entire time? No swapping or anything like that right? None of those crazy games you want the world to think you love? Of course Pete is also the one who told us that he would never date someone like Ashlee. He would have sex with her, but never date her. Now they are engaged. I think a denial from the royal We on friendsorenemies or some statement from anyone other than the Pete, would probably be best right around now. Otherwise, that May wedding out in Santa Barbara should be great. Reception at the Hitching Post? I know, I know. Gone to hell since Sideways came out, but it's a tourist attraction now. You are going to be married and have a kid. That means Disneyland and American Idol for you from now on. I'll expect that Tom Jones cover album from Fall Out Boy next year.
As for me, I am done with this story. Unless this baby turns out to belong to 50 Cent or to Nick Lachey, I don't really care. Oh, if it is Pimpa's that would be a cool story too.

He Said She Said


I hate He Said/She Said cases because generally both sides feel they are right and the other is wrong. Such is the case involving Rob Lowe and the nanny. Her name is Jessica Gibson and she started working for the Lowes when she was just 17. Now 24, she has Gloria Allred has her lawyer. Enough said. You know she is going to be on television everyday and then somehow end up in Playboy.

She claims that Lowe groped her or fondled her "several times" over five year period. I kind of believe her. I really believe her when it comes to the allegations she made against Rob's wife Sheryl. Jessica claims Lowe's wife would walk around the house naked, make vulgar comments, and would discuss her sex life with Lowe to the nanny.

To me that's believable. To make this all more interesting, Jessica's older sister also worked as a nanny for Rob for seven years and is one of the people Rob Lowe sued last week.

Today must be video day. You see what you think of Jessica Gibson and her allegations.


Welcome Back Jason Beghe


Jason Beghe has seen the light, and guess what, it shines lots brighter when it doesn't have to travel through Tom Cruise's ass. A guy who was best man at David Duchovny's wedding has made a video all about Scientology, and what he has to say is not positive. Imagine that. "Scientology is destructive and a rip-off."

He also says: "It’s very, very dangerous for your spiritual, psychological, mental, emotional health and evolution. I think it stunts your evolution. If Scientology is real, then something’s f**ked up."

Beghe is an OT5 which is the same level as John Travolta, Kirstie Alley and Tom Cruise. I've actually decided that since no one ever mentions what level Leah Remini is, that she is either really low, or even tells Tom what to do. I know, I know, Andrew Morton says Tom Cruise is second, but I think Leah is a crafty person and she is always around isn't she? When Tom Cruise has a party you don't see Kirstie Alley there, but Leah is right there. Jennifer Lopez has twins. No Travolta, Cruise, or Alley, but lo and behold Remini pops up.

Anyway, below is the trailer for the longer video that Jason made. Watching it will be the best three minutes of your day. Unless you have sex. But for me that is like 1:00, maybe 1:20 so really this is the best three minutes.

Today's Blind Items

No means no. Unless of course you are a washed up former has been (film A lister/tweener) who thinks every woman still has the hots for him like they did 20 years ago. Apparently back in the 80's our actor - and I use that term very loosely - had one method of hitting on chicks. Apparently he would just walk up to them and grope them. Must have been successful or all the drugs he took imprinted it on his brain because at a recent event, he tried the grope then say hello move at least four times. Although he got yelled at, and almost got his ass kicked, he kept with it. You know what really sucks? It worked for the little wad. Yep, on the fourth or fifth time some star struck caterer at the party loved it and began groping him back. She gave up all pretense of working and just left the event, but only after Mr. Hot Shot showed her off by groping her in front of everyone while he made conversation with his "peers." In at least one of the conversations - with her there - he said that his moves always work and that any night you don't have to pay for it is a great night.

Random Photos Part One

GammaGirl sent in these photos of Michelle Branch in Wilmington, NC. As always, when a reader sends in photos, they get to be the top. When you throw in some great gossip from the show it is just that much better. As you probably know, One Tree Hill is filmed in Wilmington. According to Gamma, the beloved Chad Michael Moron and his woman bailed as soon as Michelle was done because they didn't want to meet any fans. On the other hand, Hilarie Burton not only stuck around, but stood patiently and took photos and gave autographs to 30-40 tweeners and answered question after question about the show.

Oh, and Michelle Branch was amazing.


Speaking of amazing, Christina Applegate looks great. I wonder if she has seen the photos of her ex and just starts laughing.
Sorry. I know you all love Balthazar Getty but the press conference photos were only from the waist up. One downer though might be the cold sore on Mr. Getty's lip.
"Sure. I'll hold your kid. Can she have shot?"
It kind of looks like this is the first time Deryck has ever got to second doesn't it? I will spare you the photos where he is trying to stick a finger in her ass. Seriously. I wouldn't kid about that stuff.
F**k, f**k, f**k, f**k, f**k, f**k. Jamie Oliver beat me.

Daniel Craig looks incredible.
Random Australian dude, Clayton Watson.
Christian Slater looks, umm, fit. In case you wanted to see more of Tamara Mellon, the Daily Mail has her without the top part of this suit on.
Christie Brinkley looks great.

This woman's name is Mama. Yep. She doesn't go out much. Every two seconds when she goes to the mall though people are hollering her name. Unfortunately they are all lost 5 year old kids.

Don't like this look on Pink and so you know it doesn't look good on Lily Allen.
Ten years ago, Camille Grammar was wearing that top as a dress.
Jake Wall is yet another random Australian dude. I think he was on their dancing on ice reality show.
OK, ignore Jessica Simpson. I know, I know. Give you something hard to do right? See, the woman with all the work done right behind Jessica? You know she is just praying she gets in the club, and has been regaling everyone in line about how she used to always get into all the clubs. She is the kind of woman who ends up on Maury in the show titled "My mom acts 13."

After banging all his co-stars, Robert Downey Jr, figures what the hell and makes his move on the Iron Man prototype.
Rachel Bilson looks great.
Seriously. With all the stupid laws in the world, there must be someone who has tried to ban muttonchops.
Matt Damon in a Darfur ad campaign.
OK. Here's the deal. Ferris Bueller was one of my favorite movies. Hell, I even liked The Freshman. Matthew Broderick is ruining Ferris for me each and ever day he decides to dress like this for the cameras. He needs to either stop going out in public or come up with some kind of outfit that says he makes more than $3 a day and buys his clothes at Salvation Army. His clothes never fit write, they are ugly and he is ruining my movie. How about shaving the head and getting a tattoo. It doesn't have to be long, but please oh please do something. The comb over, the ugly ties and the brown. Always the brown. Please make it stop.

The Who - London
Have you been trying to sleep at night wondering what became of Trenyce? Wonder no longer. It looks like she lost ten pounds and got new breasts.
Thandie Newton in the Darfur ad campaign.
Savion Glover - New York
Rush - Sunrise, Florida

Alicia Keys Has Gone Off The Deep End


As you have probably guessed, I am a big fan of Alicia Keys. However, I must say that if her quotes in Blender magazine are accurate she has gone off the deep end. Way off the deep end. In the interview she was asked about gangsta rap.

She claims that gangsta rap was actually created by the US Government. Asked why the government would do that, she replied it was designed to "convince black people to kill each other".

Wow. That is right up there with the CIA wanting to kill gay people by developing the AIDS virus. So, in her opinion a bunch of white middle aged guys were sitting around listening to The Sugar Hill Gang and said that if they could just make it more violent that it would lead to black people killing each other.

I don't think so. I don't know what the hell she was thinking or smoking or both when she gave this interview, but she has gone way below the belt on this. Kids and teenagers listen to and respect what she says and she needs to come out and correct this. If the last quote wasn't bad enough, it gets worse.

You know why Tupac and the Notorious B.I.G were killed? Take a guess. "The murders were fuelled to stop a great black leader from existing."

Uh huh. And the reason no one is going to buy your records anymore is because you had the guts to expose the lies the government is trying to hide. Good luck on the rest of your career.

Which singer is steadily driving his record company up the wall by constantly demanding they round up attractive women for "intimate time" at his hotel. Thoughtfully, this creep only ever asks after his wife leaves.

I Don't Think This Is Much Of A Surprise


US Weekly is reporting that Ashlee Simpson is pregnant. Considering I said the same thing last week as well as a million other sites, I don't think US really stretched out on a limb here. When a guy as anal and controlling as Pimpa gives his blessing to the guy who has admitted he likes the dudes as much as the ladies, you knew there had to be a catch. The catch just happens to be a kid. Pimpa knows he is stuck with Pete Wentz forever and ever. The relationship might say bye bye, but Petey will be around forever unlike that pesky Nick who soiled his other daughter. Not to say that Pimpa wouldn't mind Tony Romo soiling his daughter. Pimpa would probably cream himself if that happened.

Seriously, I am happy for Pete and Ashlee and know that Pimpa probably hates it which makes it even better. Now if some unemployed dude who Michael Lohan hates could just get Lindsay Lohan pregnant then this would be a really good week.

If The Baby Looks Like 50 Cent, We Will Blame You


By now I'm sure you have heard about the Alba baby shower and how all the guests were given bracelets, sat in a corner and sang Kumbaya. They were then told that in no uncertain terms could they take off the bracelets they had just been given.

Doesn't matter if you are getting married or if you are a surgeon or in a film, you can't take them off. Why? This is what I can't quite figure out. Right now I'm torn between Cash Warren's latest get rich quick scheme where he plans to sell a million of the little bracelets and not have to worry about donating the money to any of those pesky charities that usually are associated with popular color bracelets. I would say I am actually really headed that way. Lets face it. We know Cash is a money grubbing ass who has basically Heather Milled himself into something. Unfortunately for him, Jessica doesn't make as much as a Beatle. Hell, she doesn't make as much as Britney, so Cash has to find new ways to keep himself rich without sharing. Oh, he makes her share, but he ain't sharing.

My other guess which is much more gruesome is that if somehow the baby is born with some type of problem, such as looks nothing like Cash, or has ADD or something, then Cash and Jessica can hunt down whoever took off their bracelet and blame them for their child's misery. Then that person of course will be considered a pariah. It is kind of like the old preacher trick where if someone can't get up, it is not the preacher's fault, it is the fact the injured person didn't have enough faith. In this instance it isn't because Cash is some kind of freak that the baby turned out the way it did, it is because someone took off their bracelet.

Mark Speight Is Dead


After six days missing, someone found Mark Speight on Sunday morning. Unfortunately they did not find him alive.

Mark Speight was found hanging in the joists in Paddington Station, but out of sight of the traveling public. Apparently he had hung himself almost immediately after the last CCTV photos of him were taken.

For a complete wrap up of the entire events, here is the take of the Daily Mail. For videos, photos and an obituary, check out the BBC.

Look. Although Mark is the one who supplied the coke to his girlfriend which ultimately led to her death, no one forced her to take it. In one of the articles I read it questioned why the police who cornered him right before he killed himself did not do more for him considering how bad he looked. They did recognize him and did know what he was going through, yet did nothing. I don't know if they could have actually done something even if they had tried. I can't honestly get a handle on whether he should be blamed for Natasha Collins' death or not. Her mom seemed to not blame him. The problem he is he blamed himself and could no longer live with that guilt.
I don't want to go off on a side note here, but I just have to wonder how a guy in a daze about to kill himself can get in a secure area of the station. What if he were a terrorist planting a bomb? The guy hung up in the rafters for six days.

Try And Try But You Will Never Top This


Some of the women in my blind items have been very creative at getting revenge on their cheating partners, but this one wins hands down, simply for the fact that it was all caught on video.

Lets summarize before we watch the tape. The woman in the tape Tricia Walsh Smith who is probably most famous to US audiences as the Benny Hill woman who would always end up topless. Prior to marrying her 74 year old British playwright husband Philip Smith for love, (Uh huh) she was told by him they could never have sex because he had high blood pressure.

No doubt the 49 year old was devastated that she would not be able to have sex with the wrinkly old guy, but being the trooper she is, accepted it as fact. Until she discovered Viagra, porn movies and condoms in a drawer. She was so ticked off she decided to call his office, and to get it all on videotape.

She also reveals details in the video about their pre-nup, but I can't figure out what kind of porn the old man was into.


Only $1.5M?


You know something is really messed up in this world when an actual, verified Marilyn Monroe sex tape goes for just $1.5M. To out it into perspective just how messed up it is, Jessica Sierra's sex tape went for a little over $1M. That's right. Someone you could not pick out of a lineup unless she had a sash that said American Idol and had her crack pipe in her hand has a sex tape worth almost as much as one of the most famous stars to walk the earth.

The articles I've seen today profess shock that Marilyn would have made a sex tape. They're kidding right? Even after she made it famous she still was definitely not above doing a little side work if you know what I mean. It seems like once every few months new nude photographs are released of her. I wouldn't be surprised if there are sex tapes of her with the Kennedy's.

According to the NY Post article, J Edgar Hoover (used to be the Director of the FBI) prayed every night to whatever cross dressing God he believed in that the guy getting oral in the Marilyn tape was one of the Kennedy brothers. No such luck. My guess is that it is a mob guy. Considering the source of the tape and the fact he has his face hidden, he is probably a mob guy. I would say some married guy from the burbs, but doubt he could have afforded Marilyn. I mean film had to be extra right?

I know this is probably sacrilege, but don't you get the idea that maybe Marilyn Monroe was someone who only got where she got because she was so willing to do whatever it took on the casting couch. I honestly don't think she is that great of an actress. I just think she was someone every guy wanted to be with, and she took advantage of that fact to get what she wanted. She was willing to trade so to speak.

In my opinion she was only given this near mythological status because of the fact she slept with the Kennedys and died under mysterious circumstances. Put her in today's world. If there were a woman who slept with anyone to get parts; Slept with a sitting President, possibly the Attorney General; Some of the President's friends. Maybe more than one at a time. Slept with guys in the mob and married ballplayers and authors and posed naked for men's magazines as well as made a sex tape, and that is just we easily know, what would you think of her?
