Full Frontal Friday

It's that time again. A time for all of you to get your freak on. Or maybe just a time to stare. Next Friday there will not be a FFF because of Thanksgiving here in the US. It just doesn't seem right for some reason, although I guess many of you are thankful for it. So, what I decided to do this week is to give you a best of. Your favorites from FFF of weeks past. There is one new one, although I know all of you have seen it by now. Prince William is gracing us with his presence, and he does it Steve McQueen style. If you don't know what I mean, then look at the labels on the FFF site for Steve. Thanks to everyone who sent the Prince William photo. It is good to know there are so many of you on the lookout for celeb peen. Click here.

Four For Friday

#1 - This one of the more odd things I have heard. B- list film actor. He has tried his hand at television and was on one hit, but everything else has been pretty much a loser. Well, our actor lives on a street with some people who enjoy having parties at their house. Our actor decided to earn a few extra bucks for himself so about two years ago he started valet parking for his neighbors when they have a party. He apparently got a thrill with the looks on the faces of people when they saw who was parking their car. He can't make it to every party, and so has actually started a company that valets for people having parties. But, whenever he can he still loves doing it.

#2, 3 & 4 - So in this one we have a musician. B+ list group, but our musician definitely has A list name recognition. Our musician has an ex although that status seems to change daily. The ex fancies herself as an actress, but really she is just a celebutard with more luck than Heather Mills. Well, our musician has never really believed a word that comes out of his ex's mouth, especially concerning one of her ex's and she has several high profile ones. Well, the musician was supposed to be recording, but when it got canceled he decided to go surprise his ex at her lunch appointment with her agent. Umm, when he got to the spot though, all he found was his ex and her very, very famous ex lip locked in a back booth of the restaurant. Shouting match followed, but lucky for our musician, nothing else ensued.

Random Photos Part One

Tom Hanks, Baz Luhrman and Shakespeare. Hell, you have to put that on top of the photos. That, and I really do love the Shakespeare Festival of LA.

Until I saw Tom and Baz this was going to be the top photo. That is one hell of a fireworks display in Dubai for the grand opening of a casino.
Alec Baldwin and Salma Hayek on the set of 30 Rock.
So, yesterday I had Mary Kate in the photos. It's only fair to have Ashley today. Plus, it seems like Full House day today on the site.
I guess maybe Charlie McDowell is holding up Kristen Chenoweth's dress because I'm not sure how it would stay up on its own. I know, I'm an ignorant guy but it looks like the top could fall at any second.
Clay Walker probably deserves to be on top because he gave $100K yesterday to the National Pediatric MS Center. That is really generous.
My favorite celebrity offspring went from 14 to about 30 in a flash. I wasn't even sure it was Dakota Johnson at first.
Ellen - Las Vegas
Just checking in on Gwen and Zuma. Still want to say Zima.
Josh Blue and Jim Breuer. I wasn't going to post the photo and then I saw their initials and it reminded me of my favorite marketing slogan ever. Since it is holiday related I thought I would share it with you. --- "ingle ells -- It just isn't the holidays without J&B." I know, I know. A liquor ad is my favorite. Shocker.
Been awhile since Jon Bon Jovi graced us with his presence in the photos and his wife looks lovely.
Another person absent for awhile has been Jennifer Connelly.
I don't think Jon Favreau's wife has ever been in the photos so welcome to Joya.
Jimmy Fallon looks really good and very un Jimmy Fallon like. Must be the George Hamilton tan.
Jamie Kennedy was probably not making anyone laugh at the Comedy Festival.
A first time appearance for Katy Mixon in the photos.
OK, OK. Are all of you happy now. I went back and found an event that Kevin McKidd went to a few weeks ago. Here he is. Please stop the e-mails and just enjoy.
Apparently Keanu Reeves just found out the event had no liquor.
Ladyhawke - London
Minnie Driver looks great and that is an incredibly tiny Christmas tree.
Book signings can be pretty tough if no one comes.
Sure, why not? Rhys Ifans seems to have a thing for blondes. This time it is Natalie Imbruglia.
Natalie Portman and Scott Cohen on the set of their new film.
Robert Duval and his wife I think are making their first appearance in the photos.
The marriage everyone said wouldn't last. Ric Ocasek and Paulina Porizkova. Seems to be doing ok.
Uh oh. The mysterious hand is back. It looks like it is trying to hold Reese steady.
And since I know there are lots of shoe fans, here is the pair Reese was wearing.
Solange Knowles - New York
One of my favorite people in the world Schuyler Fisk.
She and her mom Sissy Spacek posed for lots of photos together, but I thought they each deserve their very own photo.
Well at least we know Tyra Banks knows how to fake it. Good news for her boyfriends.
The lovely Tina Fey.
The Pigeon Detectives - London
Amy Poehler making her first post baby appearance. Will Arnett probably decided he wasn't going to miss out on the chance and got away too.

Your Turn

It's that time again. I know all of you were disappointed there was no Your Turn last week. Well this week, I thought everyone could get a chance to offer up their very favorite film character. Not actor, but character. What role did you think was just the greatest ever, or worst. I mean some of you might really want to say that your favorite film character was the one Paris Hilton portrayed in House Of Wax. I know it gave me a good laugh.

Also, it is that time again. It has been six months and we are heading into the New Year which of course means blind item reveals. As will become a tradition here, I think it is time for all of you to send in your reader photos so I can post them between now and January 1st. Of course on that day I will put all of them into one huge post again.

I'm sure things have changed with those of you who submitted in the past, plus we have a whole new slew of readers that have joined since the last time. So, send them on in and let the posting begin.

That Sucks

Looks like I'm going to have to wait awhile to see Michael Lohan get his ass kicked. Remember how Michael was all gung-ho about his charity boxing match? Well, a guy pledged $30,000 to get into the ring against Michael and I have no doubts he would have laid him out repeatedly. I was looking forward to watching it repeatedly on YouTube. I was going to make it the permanent top spot in the blog. This is something I was really looking forward to. Not as much maybe as Paula Abdul singing live on a morning show program which still has never seemed to happen, but I was counting down the days until Monday when the fight was going to happen.

I can't even blame Michael for it, although he did seem really pleased that it was not going to happen. Apparently since Michael is still on parole for a violent crime, the State of New York decided that he shouldn't be allowed to climb into a boxing ring and potentially put into another violent encounter. The only thing violent about it would have been when his head hit the floor of the ring, but, who am I to argue with a state government?

Lohan, for his part said he was really disappointed but understood why the decision was made. Yeah, I bet he was disappointed. He got what he wanted out of this whole thing. And, instead of setting up something for when his parole ends with the computer guy for some other charity he instead says now he wants to fight Mark Ronson. Whatever. The good news as you can see is that I found a close-up of his mesh shirt. Enjoy.

Bob Saget Still Has A Chance

I really thought that this marriage had a chance. I'm an optimist that way. I didn't care that she was a recovering meth addict and that her future husband had no discernible job. I just knew that Jodie Sweetin and Cody Herpin would make it. I was wrong. Jodie dumped him. Jodie filed divorce papers in the OC on Wednesday. They were married in July of 2007 and had a daughter in April. OK, well Jodie had the baby and Cory just watched.

They are actually filming a reality show right now so this could be a little problematic. Of course it could also be the season ending cliffhanger and we already know the spoiler. Crap. Do you think this should have a spoiler warning at the top? Are all of us going to be glued to our sets each week waiting to see what happens in the life of Jodie and whats his name. Oh, Cory. Sorry.

Well, if I have ruined any kind of dramatic thing for you, then I apologize. There doesn't seem to have been any kind of statement released, but I'm sure it would have said something like this.

Both Cory and I love each other very much, but just felt that at this time we needed to move in separate directions in our lives. We both remain committed to our daughter and hope that you will respect our privacy.

Feel better now that you got something official?

The Human Weapon Huh?

I know that I have been busy lately but I can't believe I missed this story. Jason Chambers who has been on CSI and Days Of Our Lives and now hosts a show on the History Channel called The Human Weapon was arrested on suspicion of rape and possessing narcotics. Chambers is a guy who made his fame, what little there is of it as a martial arts expert. According to the police, Chambers allegedly raped a woman after knocking her out with drugs. Apparently he is such a loser a-hole that this is the only way he can actually be with a woman.

Jason was arrested on November 11 and was released after posting $200,000 bail. The district attorney's office has not filed any charges yet and the jerkoff is due back in court on December 5. Great. So between now and then he can just keep doing what he was doing. Of course since this is all alleged he wasn't probably doing anything except sitting at home watching a continuous loop of himself on television and wishing he had a bigger peen.

What About Jared?

I bet when Jared Fogle was in college and weighed 500 pounds he never probably thought that eating Subway sandwiches was anything more than a way to lose weight. Well, a bazillion years later and that decision has basically become his career. Until now. I think that Subway, despite always doing well with Jared's campaigns is ditching him for Michael Phelps.

That's right, Michael Phelps who already has 100 endorsements that he doesn't care about except for the checks and the parties is probably going to be kicking Jared to the curb. Basically Jared has been doing the dirty work for all of these years. I think he has gone to a vast majority of the Subway stores. He travels around the country telling his story and Subway pays him. They don't pay him anywhere close to what they Michael Phelps, who will probably film a couple of commercials and just keep eating McDonalds like he always has.

Does Subway really think that a few spots from Michael Phelps is really going to make the world run to Subway and eat their food? Don't you think the world would be a little more pissed that Jared would be out of a job after everything he did for the company? I think Subway is going to regret this decision.

The Child Molester Wants To Look At Children In Other Countries

Gary Glitter, the convicted child molester is really upset at the British Government. It seems that because he is on the sex offender list, he has to apply to the government for permission when he wants to travel outside the country. Well, Gary thought that perhaps some nice French and Spanish children might cheer him up so he requested to go there and the UK said no.

Even if the UK had said yes, does he really think that Spain and France would have let him enter their country? As soon as they heard he was coming they would have found him and kicked him right out. I think it would be irresponsible of the UK to let him loose on another country. Can you imagine if he did molest kids in those countries after the UK gave him permission to go? Those countries would be permanently ticked off at the UK.

Plus, the idea of this guy taking holidays all over the world and never having to work just makes me sick. Disgusted actually.

Is That Incest?

Carrie Fisher has a new book coming out. For some reason I always think she has written 20 biographies about herself. Maybe it is because she has given so many interviews. Anyway, she has a new book coming out called Wishful Drinking. In this book she basically whines about how popular her mother Debbie Reynolds was while Carrie was growing up and how she didn't get enough alone time with her mother and blah blah blah. As a result of this lack of alone time she turned to drugs. Basically all of her life's problems based on that. I know Carrie is a manic depressive, but basically it seems as if she lays the blame for everything bad that has happened in her life at the feet of her mother. How about taking some responsibility for yourself and your own actions.

Now, the one that was in the book that I do blame on her mother and which just blew me away is that Carrie's mom suggested that Carrie go ahead and get pregnant and have a baby with her stepfather. Ummm, Carrie's mom says sleep with my husband and let him get you pregnant. OK, I can see where that would be reason to have a drink or 20 for about a year. But after that. No excuses.

Lily Allen Learned A Lesson

The other day there was this big shindig in Dubai and celebrities flocked there like they were getting paid. Oh, wait a second they were. Anyway, as could be expected at an event where money is no object, the booze was flowing and it was free. Unlike Lindsay Lohan who was there, Lily Allen stayed away from the booze.

In an interview with GMTV in the UK she said that she has basically given up drinking at any public event. This was because of that little incident she had back at the GQ awards with Elton John. I think that is where it sunk in for her, but she has been hammered at lots of other public events prior to that one.

Apparently having that tape shown repeatedly all over the world made her realize that if she kept drinking in public, she knew she couldn't control how much she drank and there would be more incidents like that one.

So, Lily Allen is growing up and learning lessons. Who would have thunk it. Good job Lily.

Ted C Blind Item

Been awhile since we heard from Fake-à-la Ferocity, I know. The babe who has used prescribed synthetic goodies to help her get off a nasty drug habit is two-timing her man, didn’t you know?

No, not that hunk she’s got at home stashed in the fully toy-equipped bedroom, but her doctor, I mean. Turns out F.F. knows how to work her fierce femme charm on the good docs (a very old story in this town, right? Just ask Liz Taylor’s 263,000 docs if you don’t believe me). So you know the last Vice tale: Ms. Ferocity needed to get off her substantial habit so she could not only save her home life and marriage but make a movie, too. Thought nobody would notice that she went right back to using not that long ago.

Yeah, right, exactly. So gotta get clean again! Yep, she’s back on the synthetic stuff, and not just with one doc but two. Two pro docs who don’t know about the other, by the by. Guess Ms. F. really likes to feel good when she’s feelin’ bad comin’ down from the hard stuff? I swear, it’s not the docs and the man at home, nor F.F.’s family, that’s gonna find out first how much crap she’s shooting into her bod, it’s gonna be the public, when she keels over dead one day. Jeez already, get help, woman!

And It Ain’t: Felicity Huffman, Kate Bosworth, Ashley Olsen

Today's Blind Items

Bet you think I forgot. I didn't actually forget. I just thought I had already hit the post button. Oh well, sorry about that, but it will give you something to digest tonight or in the morning. Speaking of digesting, I had a tough time when I heard about this one. This openly gay singer has spent some time overseas. When I say overseas, I mean not in his home country wherever that may be. Anyway, it turns out that our singer got into some trouble recently. Not the kind of trouble you would expect, but more of the, "crap this is going to cost me big." Our singer has always had a bit of a violent streak when it comes to his sex life. He knows this and only participates with people who are aware of it and can handle it. Never been a problem until now. Seems that while overseas he took a liking to someone who was ill prepared for the experience and ended up in the hospital for several days. The person he took a liking too was barely legal. Hell, might not have even been legal. It took a massive monetary bribe to make his parents go away, and not press charges. It took another massive bribe to keep the one of the local papers from printing the story. Look for our singer to be playing a birthday party really really soon.

Random Photos Part One

A real Belafonte. Harry Belafonte must hate that Mel B's husband changed his name just so he could pretend to be a relative. Harry is a legend and deserves the top spot. He is just class.
One of my favorites is Alicia Witt. Actually anyone who has been a kindness deserves to always be in the photos.
Love Christopher McDonald as an actor.
I love when Ed Burns is on Entourage. I really had no idea he could be so damn funny until he did that show.
I know I am probably taking a chance here, but I feel like if Ethel Kennedy makes an appearance I have to put her in even if I'm risking an onslaught of Dead Kennedy comments.
I can do without the scissors, but I do like seeing Fran Drescher.
I'm not a big fan of Kelly Brook but she looks really nice here.
Kylie Minogue - Dubai
Kiefer Sutherland looks great at the premiere of 24.
Is it the pose or does Lorraine Bracco have something wrong with her?
A random combination, Lisa Kudrow and Dustin Hoffman. When is the last time anyone saw Lisa wear her ring?
Last time Lindsay Lohan got this skinny a trip to rehab was what happened.
Apparently Lionel Richie refused all requests to dance on the ceiling.
Another random combination. Rihanna and Madonna. One word names both ending with an A too.
Any day now I expect to see Matthew Broderick and Sarah Jessica Parker start eating dinner at 4pm and being asleep before the sun sets. They get older daily. They look fine, just...old.
Mischa Barton actually looking good. I think she wore the dress before though so she must not be getting free stuff anymore.
A much better photo of Matt Dillon than I have seen lately.
Michael Jordan. I think this is his first appearance in the photos.
The one and only Mary J. Blige.
Thank goodness there is only one Mary Kate Olsen. I mean Ashley is a twin, but there is only one Mary Kate.
Love Sam Waterston.
Timbaland can probably expect a call from PETA. He also probably doesn't give a crap.
Go to jury duty and get to meet Uma Thurman.
Nice photo of Viggo Mortensen. All of your favorites have been in here the past few weeks.
Wesley Snipes looks like he has lost a lot of weight.
Zucchero - Sydney

Think I Just Threw Up A Little In My Mouth

I like to think I have a strong stomach. I didn't puke when I saw Verne Troyer's tongue and I managed to hold it in when I saw Paris Hilton's sex tape. But, the thought of Criss Angel making out with anyone just makes me want to hurl. Am I wrong? Am I missing something? I know he's famous and so lots of bad looks go away when you are a celebrity and have money, but how many of you are really attracted to him? I'm just curious.

Holly Madison gave an interview to Life & Style because they were the only ones willing to talk to her. I don't think they paid her. Oh, I'm sure she wanted a couple of bucks. She is doing everything she can to make money. If you want Holly Madison at your kid's birthday and have an extra $100 laying around, she's yours. I don't know why you would want her at your kid's party, but it sounds good when you write it.

Anyway, Holly said that since she broke up with Hef she stopped wearing so much makeup. In fact she says she doesn't even wear lip gloss anymore.

"The truth is, I barely wear lip gloss anymore because I'm always making out with my boyfriend, so it comes off in two-and-a-half seconds," she says, adding with a laugh, "Apparently, I wasn't making out with Hef as much."

Somebody needs to go check on Hef. I think I see his legs sticking out from the bus Holly just drove over him. Just let it go Holly. No one cares anymore. Oh, and get used to the idea that not to many guys are going to want to be kissing you after you kissed Criss Angel.

But He's Not Married

Apparently Sienna Miller has given up on married men...for now. Sienna has been spotted in London for the second time in as many weeks with what sources are calling her new love. Whatever. All I know is that it is Josh Hartnett and that if anyone tries to take a photo of them they will both probably sue. I think Sienna makes more money now suing tabloids than she does actually making films. josh is also not afraid of making a little money on the side by suing tabloids. Maybe this is their little get rich quick scheme.

Think about it. You know paps are going to be swarming them if they see them out together. Sienna will probably undress at some point, because lets face it, she does that. Pictures will be taken and then lawsuits will be filed. If this is real, then I just have to wonder what Balthazar is thinking. The rat bastard cheated on his wife with someone who is not really known for long term relationships. He ruined his reputation, embarrassed his wife, and allowed himself to be photographed so when his kids get older they can see them all over the internet.

As for Sienna, she probably doesn't even care. I decided a long time ago that the only person she cares about is herself and what she can get for herself out of the deal.

Don't Worry About Emily

I've felt pretty bad for Emily Blunt lately. First of all she was in a relationship with Michael Buble, then she had to deal with not only him cheating on her, but having the whole world know he was cheating on her. You think your neighbors or friends or family finding out about an affair is bad, think about having the whole world know about it and to see photos of it as well.

Anyway, Emily is apparently doing great with her new guy John Krasinski. Yes, John from The Office. They recently spent a weekend together out in Santa Barbara and did nothing but order room service the entire time. I could think of worse ways to spend a weekend.

The one thing I think she can feel pretty confident about is that John won't let some strange woman take a naked photo of him, and there is probably no Michael Buble on his iPod.

Couldn't Just Sell Cologne

I give celebrities and companies a really hard time for always creating products like perfumes and clothes the celebrity can call their own and then sell. At this point, after reading what I just read, I would almost hope for that at this point. Dave Stewart has a brand new single he is selling. Nothing wrong with that. He is a great musician and of course he needs to sell his product. Where can you buy it you may want to know. Good question. It seems the only place you will be able to buy this brand new single is attached to a product. The product is a vibrator.

Yes, that's right. The only way you can buy Dave's new single is to also buy the vibrator. He even hopes that everyone will listen to his new song Let's Do It Again while using the vibrator. Considering that I have never heard the words let's do it again in that situation, I would think it would just be a taunt to all the men out there and then when they couldn't do it, the significant other would say, "well at least I have a vibrator."

Dave thinks so highly of this that he printed the lyrics on the vibrator. Yeah. good luck reading those.

Way To Ruin It For Everyone Else

When I saw that a few days ago Macy's kicked The Cheetah Girls from the annual Macy's Thanksgiving Day Parade it didn't make much of an impression. Then today I saw the story again, because honestly, it is a pretty slow news week. Sure there is Madonna and Guy settling their divorce in record time and I already did the Paris and Benji bit, but there is not much going on. Under the circumstances I decided to think about The Cheetah Girls situation again. I know, I know, but I ran out of booze last night around 11pm and so didn't have anything to do.

When Adrienne Bailon did her whole on purpose leak of the naked photos of herself, she was doing it for herself and her career. But, what she didn't stop to consider is the fact there are two other members of The Cheetah Girls and now they are paying the price for Adrienne's actions. For those of you not in the US, the Macy's parade is a really big deal. Lots and lots of people attend it and watch it on television. Honestly it is about the only thing on that morning other than pre-game festivities for football, so it gets a big audience. The Cheetah Girls probably would have sold a few albums and made some more money after an appearance in the parade. Instead because of what Adrienne did, there will be no appearance, the concert ticket sales are drying up, and while Adrienne may be leaving the group, she has basically ruined it for the other two. Merry Christmas Adrienne.

At Least She Had A Prescription

Winona Ryder may have fallen sick on her flight to London yesterday, but at least she has learned one valuable lesson. No, it isn't that taking too many Xanax does not make you a pleasant flying companion. No, what she learned is that when you take too many Xanax on a flight you get to land first, and get off the plane first. On those international flights arriving in London in the morning, and your name isn't Naomi Campbell it's always fun to find a new way to move to the front of the line.

I kid because she is ok. I myself don't do Xanax but I can understand someone who is scared of flying doing it. I'm also immensely proud of Winona because this time, unlike when she was arrested in 2001, I think she had a valid prescription and not some form she printed off the internet and then filled at her pharmacy. I'm guessing it was valid or else we would have been talking about her arrest and not her release from the hospital. Winona apparently passed out twice while en route to London. She woke up, saw what they were passing off as a meal, and then took another Xanax and passed out again.

I'm glad she's doing ok.

MySpace Suicide Case Goes To Trial

It's been awhile since I discussed the death of the girl from suicide who had been allegedly teased by the mother of her friend as well as her friends themselves. Megan Meier was 13 years old when she hung herself after she thought her boyfriend broke up with her. Of course she never knew the boy she was talking to was not real. Instead, allegedly, Lori Drew posed as the boyfriend and allegedly had other girls helping her.

Everytime I read about this case it just floors me. I hate thinking that humans are so low that they could stoop to this behavior thinking it is somehow fun or a joke to screw around with the feelings of another person that way. They allegedly knew that Meier was already suffering from depression. To do this is just beyond any kind of moral compass that most people are brought up with. I could forgive the other two teenage girls because they probably didn't know what the hell they were causing. Sure, they were being mean, but it is Lori Drew who deserves a special place in hell when her time comes.

The trial is not about manslaughter or murder, and is instead basically being tried as a hacker would be tried. It didn't stop Megan's mom from describing the suicide and how she found her daughter though hanging from her bedroom closet.

The defense is trying to say that Lori Drew barely even knew what MySpace was and that she had only a very fundamental knowledge of computers and so could not have committed the crime. If she takes the stand she will probably say something like she has an idea what e-mail and the internet are, but they are just some kind of mystery technology or something.

Good luck with that defense. Drew could get up to 20 years in prison if convicted of all the charges. Unfortunately she probably will just get probation even if convicted. Not much justice in that.

The Perfect Solution

I can think of about a million ways I would rather spend my time than talking about Paris Hilton or Lindsay Lohan. Alas, I have a gossip blog and sometimes it just becomes necessary. At least I can have some fun with it. Before I do so though, can I say that when I read that Paris Hilton has two cars that each cost over $500K, I nearly threw up. To think she has that much disposable income is pretty disgusting because, we as humans have made it possible somehow for her to acquire enough money to get them.

You probably read yesterday that Paris broke up with Benji Madden and made sure the world knew it when her spokespeople released a statement. That's twice for Benji in one year. Plus now, all the ladies he dates will be wondering if Paris gave him a special present. I love how in the statement Paris says she is still madly in love with him. The only person Paris is madly in love with is herself. Everyone else just worships at her altar.

Then I read about how Lindsay Lohan and Samantha Ronson had a huge fight because of Calum Best. So, I came up with the perfect solution. Calum goes back to his hookers and his fake celibacy show while Paris and Samantha hookup and Lindsay and Benji hookup. That way all four get to stay in the public eye, and a new round of stories can come out whether Paris is a lesbian and whether Lindsay will follow in Nicole Richie's footsteps and have a baby with a Madden brother. Of course, I will be disgusted with the whole thing, but still mention it all in passing and the tabloids will have new stories to sell for the next few months.

You think its crazy, but Samantha can help Paris with her singing career. Lindsay can go out on the road with Good Charlotte and Michael Lohan can try and step in and become everyone's manager. Oh, and Ali and Dina get caught on tape with Calum Best. It's like a win/win for the entire tabloid world.

Daily Mirror Blind Item

Which Premier League footballer was stunned when girls started randomly attacking him with ice cubes at London's Funky Buddha club?

The star, who had been caught two-timing, looked like he was about to cry...

Today's Blind Items

This B- list R&B singer just had her second abortion that her A list producer/singer boyfriend made her get. He says he doesn't want anymore kids and that if she wants to be with him then she needs to stay childless. I don't know if she is on birth control or not. I just know the details of what happened. She did get a nice $200,000 piece of bling after the first abortion. No word on what she got after this most recent one.

Which globally acclaimed band is on the verge of splitting up because the egomaniacal frontman hogs all the limelight?

A Lot Of Layers

I need to try and remember to go to a doctor on Friday so I can steal a People Magazine. Ashley Dupre sat down for her very first interview and it was with People. I guess she probably realized that they would pay her and they would do their very best to make her look like the victim here and to shy away from discussing anything involving sex.

Well, she got her wish. Kneepads certainly lived up to their nickname. In the excerpt from the interview that People posted online, she is definitely given the kid gloves treatment. It's like they just let her talk, took quotes from her and made them into a story. There don't appear to have been any actual questions involved in this interview. Just a series of statements made by Ashley.

The first thing she wants us to know is that she is a normal girl. I'm guessing normal in the sense that she is a girl. I'm not here to judge her profession. The only thing I care about is if she is filling us up with a nice helping of BS. So, when she said, "I have a lot of depth, a lot of layers," I decided enough was enough. What layers has she showed? She was in Girls Gone Wild, then was a stripper and a hooker. After that she tried to get as much money as possible from Playboy so she could take off her clothes again for money. After that, she spent the entire summer on the beach working on a tan except for the time she spent shacked up with the married guy in a New York hotel room. I guess I'm missing some of the depth or the layers.

Ashley does think the former Governor has been punished enough and she is sorry for any pain Silda Spitzer has had. See, to me, I could almost believe that last part, except for what she did this summer with the married guy. Yes, the guy is as much to blame. But, she knew that he was married. So, if she really didn't want Silda to feel any pain, then why on earth did she find some other wife to bring pain to.

Ashley wants to do films and write books and make music. I don't care what she does. I just don't want to actually have to see it. But, I might not get that lucky. It wasn't in the excerpt of the interview, but apparently Ashley is in the running to get a Tila Tequila style dating show where Ashley is the prize. Great.

From Stadiums To Strip Show All In One Year

It was about a year ago when The Spice Girls announced they were reuniting and not long after that after they had made gazillions of dollars that they broke up again. Apparently Mel B must have burned through her gazillions. Well, kids are expensive and if you count her husband as a kid, and I think most of us do, then she would be burning through it at an extra fast clip.

Why do I think she's running out of cash? Because honestly I can think of no other reason why she would agree to perform in a Vegas show as a character called Peep Diva while being surrounded entirely by topless dancers. Well, actually there will be one other person not topless and that will be Kelly Monaco who will play Little Bo Peep. Kelly doing this show I completely understand. It's steady work, its cash and it beats going to auditions all day long.

Mel says that she is really excited to be doing the show. "This part is great for me. As a Spice Girl I would bring guys on the stage and whip them, so I think I've always been slightly naughty."

Well you were with Eddie Murphy so obviously you don't have a problem with kink. Maybe that's it. Maybe she doesn't need the money but needs some kind of spice every night and to be surrounded by a bunch of topless women while all the men in the audience keep asking her if they can be one of Little Bo Peep's sheep.

What's An Opportunist?

The NY Post has identified the guy that Anne Hathaway is supposedly dating now. Well, I say supposedly dating because I don't know if they have ever actually had an official date. They just showed up together in New Orleans where apparently they are taking a vacation. It's not often you see a couple that has only been together a few days taking a vacation together. I mean at the beginning of the relationship, everything is so new that it would not seem like you would need a vacation.

Anyway, the paper identified the guy as Adam Shulman who I had never heard of and apparently no casting agents have either because his acting resume is sparse. He did go to Brown though. For those of you not in the US, Brown is an Ivy League school like Harvard, although not Harvard. Hey, I don't need a bunch of e-mails from people discussing the pros and cons of each Ivy League school. Anyway, while at Brown, Shulman only tried to date women who had family money. A lot of money. His friends call him an "opportunist." To me that sounds very much like a politically correct term for gold digger. Isn't that what Anne's ex was? I mean sure he tried to make his own gold by stealing from others, but basically that is all he was. Guess Anne has a soft spot for them.

Sleep In Kate Moss' Bed For $400

Actually the headline might be a little misleading. With the resurgence of the dollar you could probably sleep in Kate Moss' bed for about $350. I know, I know, but I promise Pete Doherty is not going to wake up next to you. Although I'm sure for an extra $100 he would be willing. I mean this is a guy who used to get paid by the hour so he probably would be up for it.

Actually, the reason you are able to do this is not because Kate is out of money, but because the landlord at some place she rented for three years is selling the bed from the place. Wow. Didn't realize that people didn't usually bring their own beds with them. She rented the place from 2001-2004 and the guy is just now getting rid of it. How many other people have slept in it during the past four years? He's trying to sell the bed at an auction based on Kate's name, but I want to know who was sleeping it all the other years.

The guy selling it seems to think that every man will want to be able to say he sleeps in Kate Moss' bed. Umm. Have you seen Kate Moss lately? Have you seen who has been in her bed over the past few years? I'll take a pass thanks.

How Do You Get That Job?

In all the talk yesterday in the gossip world about Michael Jackson allegedly being too sick to fly to London and testify in a case where he is being sued, no one really talked about some of the things that Michael is being sued for. One definitely caught my eye. It turns out that the sheikh who is suing Michael, brought in a guy who calls himself a brain power guru. Apparently this guy can turn on your creative juices and get you in the mood to write. In the past you would have just called a guy who would have brought you drugs, but this is the 21st century.

Michael just could not get it up creatively so to speak so Michael wanted this guy flown in from across the world. The sheikh obliged. Nine times. Each time cost $37,000. Can you imagine a job where you just run through some crap exercises you found in a motivation book and be able to charge people $37,000 a session. If that is not the biggest waste of money since E! gave Kim Kardashian a television show that I don't know what is. OK, giving Jerry O' Connell a show was probably worse.

The guy hired is Tony Buzan. Never heard of him but supposedly he is a big deal in the whole mind mapping and motivational department. Michael was only in Bahrain for about 11 months so this guy must have been coming in once a month. For what? I will tell you how to motivate Michael. Kick his ass. When is the last time you think someone kicked his ass. Keep kicking his ass until he writes a song. Can you imagine sitting around mapping his mind. One compartment for little kids. One compartment for how good he thinks he is. Lets face it. Michael has not been good in over 20 years. No mind mapping is going to change that.

Today's Blind Items

This aging, but not old, former B list television actress from a very hit television show and sometime film actress from some very forgettable films is someone with B+ name recognition and a career that has had lots of stops and starts. One thing has been holding her back for years. She thought she found a way to solve the problem but it didn't work. She has always had an alcohol problem but now she has discovered a new best friend called meth. Her habit has got so bad that she cannot always wait for her dealer to come to her. Several times she has had to actually go out in her very conspicuous car and go make buys herself.

Random Photos Part One

Not a clear winner today for top photo. I decided to give it to Chris Columbus just because he has made some films I really enjoy. Plus he has never been in the photos before, so might as well put him at the top.

Another first timer I think is Camilla Belle. At this point it is really difficult to remember who has been in or not in the photos.
I know Diedrich Bader has never been in which is a shame because he always cracks me up.
Another guy who is incredibly funny is David Cross. Check out the Meet The Parents pin.
A couple that scowls together stays together. At least until an 18 year old model with a better scowl comes along.
Been awhile since I had Emma Watson in the photos.
One of the nicest guys around is Elijah Wood. Maybe you have heard differently but I have never heard of him turning down a photo or an autograph request.
It's the Bean. I guess I should call her Frances Bean, but with that middle name it just kind of screams, "hey call me Bean."
Do you think I would forget to give you a Hugh Jackman photo?
And a bonus one from the side. Never really see him from this angle. Sorry that Nicole got in the way of your enjoyment.
I've decided that Jennifer Esposito and Gina Gershon must have the same hair stylist. The shame is they probably paid more for their hair cuts then I have total in the past ten years.
Ummm. John Galliano has taken fashion to a whole other level with this outfit. Not sure what that level is, but it has gone there.
Jennie Garth from the side. Lots of side shots today.
I guess Juliette Lewis should get bonus points for at least trying to look normal.
New lip injections Jessica?
New weave John?
Kim Basinger and Ireland. I can't decide who she looks like more.
Kristen Stewart at the Twilight premiere.
Kevin Spacey looks really good here. It seems like he has not done much lately, and I miss seeing him in things.
Maria Sharapova just because I had all the male tennis players last week so thought I needed to show some equal time.
Matthew Settle with a crisp, new $1 bill just itching to be spent.
Nikki Reed looking lovely. She has grown up incredibly fast.
I believe this is the first time I have ever given Peter Facinelli his very own photo where he doesn't have to share.
Justin Long just keeps working his way through the women. I'm joking. Rachel is not susceptible to his charms. I don't think.
Rosario Dawson and Will Smith. Don't really have anything to say except that Jada isn't in it, so it got posted.
Robert Pattinson with his required vampire look.
And I guess a more normal look. He is a method actor so I don't want to speculate how you prepare for being a vampire if you are a method actor.
The one and only Rainn Wilson.
Steely Dan - Montclair, NJ
Someone today suggested I sue Stephanie Meyer for making them lactose intolerant due to the overwhelming amount of cheese she puts in her books.
Sigur Ros - Amsterdam
The best marketing idea of the day.
I can't even bend like that. To actually attempt it on ice wearing tiny blades is beyond me.
Teri Polo has also never been in the photos.

**Warning** This May Disturb You-- Not Gossip ** Warning**

Now that I know you have all read the warning at the top, you probably are even more anxious to discover what is so disturbing. I just got done reading this Daily Mail article about a guy in the UK who made a suicide pact with his wife. He made her go first and so she dutifully climbed up on a ladder, and hung herself from the doorway in an upstairs bedroom. Apparently after seeing her do it, the guy got nervous and decided he couldn't do it.

So, he left her hanging there. Umm, that was 8 weeks ago. He finally called the cops yesterday and told them the story. I don't care what his story is or if he is telling the truth about the whole thing. I have no doubt in my mind that the woman was hanging there for eight weeks and I can't even begin to imagine what kind of person would be able to walk by a dead body multiple times daily while it was just hanging there.

According to the neighbors this is a guy who never talked to his neighbors and barely even said hi for ten years. The only thing they knew about him is that he would polish his car outside every day. Every neighbor knew that about him. The funny thing is most of the neighbors didn't even know a woman lived in the house. Ten years and the neighbors had never seen her. Some had, but most had not. I could understand if they had only lived there a short while, but this was ten years. There is no indication that either of the couple worked. They have no kids. I wonder how this couple even met or what their first date was like. Did he say to her, "you know, we should get married and then stay in our house for the next 20 years." How does that type of person even meet anyone, let alone date someone and marry them.

Retirement Fever Hits Hollywood

Apparently Angelina Jolie is a trendsetter. Last week if you will recall she said she was going to give up acting at some point to focus on her family and also because I guess it is tough juggling films and pregnancies. It isn't like she and Brad are hurting for cash on the homefront, so if she decided to retire in a few years, I think the only impact would be that maybe instead of a new jet every year, maybe they could only get one every two years. Well, with all the attention she got for saying that she might retire you would think that other actresses would be wanting to jump in with both feet to try and steal some of Angelina's roles.

Well, not Nicole Kidman. Nicole is also thinking of retiring from acting. Not because she has not had a hit movie in forever and people are balking at paying her outrageous fee for flops, but because she too just wants to stay home and have more babies. Last night at the premiere of Australia, she said she couldn't handle being away from her daughter and so she is just thinking about giving it all up for family.

Not to be outdone by the women, Chris Martin said in an interview yesterday that he is going to quit Coldplay next year when he turns 33 because he wants to spend time with his family and feels that all rockers should give up by the age of 33. I don't know where he came up with that age, but I would gather by the time he hits about 33 and three months and realizes that not being a rocker means staying home with Gwyneth everyday that he will suddenly discover that perhaps 33 might be too young to retire after all.

I just love how these trends just become news. One week all the articles are about actors wanting to adopt. The next week all the articles are about how everyone cooks all their own food and then this week every person wants to retire. It's like the publicists see what gets news and then tells their client to go ahead and say the same damn thing. Either that or every publicist has the same idea of the week calendar they all got for Christmas.

Happy Anniversary Tom & Katie

Dear Tom & Katie,

It's hard to believe it's been two years and 500 auditing sessions since the two of you walked down the aisle in Italy. Two years of living on separate floors, while pretending to have the romance of the century has to be difficult. You would think that with your prolonged absences from each other this year that you would want to spend some quality time alone on your anniversary. Maybe Tom would dress you up as his favorite superhero and you would have hot passionate monkey sex all night. But no. Instead you did what any couple celebrating your anniversary would do, you had the kids over and played the Scientology version of Trivial Pursuit. Aaah, good times.

Over the past two years you have seen both of your careers go into the toilet but it has not let you stop pretending otherwise. Sure, Katie has been forced to take the fourth lead in a Broadway play, but Tom has that big Christmas spectacular coming out and with the advance reviews, I'm sure that movie has a chance to at least pay for that autographed first edition of Dianetics.

For people who really don't have much of a career, you sure do get photographed a lot. I myself am guilty of showing your photos more than I probably should simply because I think your daughter is adorable. I say your daughter, but I'm really not sure about that whole thing. I can't wait until she is old enough and then have her provide a DNA sample, because I'm just dying to know. I figure at some point she will go through some kind of teenage rebellion phase and that will be the perfect chance.

But, this is not about her, this is about your love for each other. I have never seen a couple pose so much for the cameras together in public. It's almost like you really want the world to show us you are together. Always wearing matching clothes with your arms around each other. From the looks of things you have never had a fight. Considering you probably only see each other during a photo opportunity, that is probably why you don't fight. I've always been curious about what you would fight over. Do you have a copy of the alleged contract on your refrigerator door and refer to it when you fight. "It says here I only have to pretend to like you three days a week, so I don't have to do four."

Katie, it seems like you really don't get out much. Oh sure you walk the 20 feet from your apartment door to the car and back again each day, but when is the last time you went out with someone other than Tom or one of the bodyguards? We never see you at lunch in New York, just laughing with friends. That can't be a good thing. The only time you are out with friends, it is always another couple, of an equally appropriate Hollywood stature and you are all smiles. How about just going out and getting hammered one night and letting the pap catch you?

Anyway, it has been two years and I'm sure you are both ecstatic to have made it this long. Congratulations.

Britney Has Seen Groundhog Day

I would not really have suspected that Britney Spears was a Groundhog Day fan, but apparently she is enough of one to even use it as a reference point in an interview she gave in a show for UK television. Of course the interview is part of a special, and it is being shown the day before her new album is released and it was executive produced by her manager Larry Rudolph so even though it appears to be candid, one really has to wonder how much of it is designed to make us feel sorry for her on purpose so we will all rush out and buy her new album.

I feel pretty sorry for her when I read it, and then I realized she doesn't really understand why she is in the position she is in.

She says, 'I have really good days, and then I have bad days. Even when you go to jail, y'know, there’s the time when you’re gonna get out. 'But in this situation, it’s never ending. It’s just like Groundhog Day every day.' 'I think it’s too in control. If I wasn’t under the restraints I’m under, I’d feel so liberated. When I tell them the way I feel, it’s like they hear but they’re really not listening. 'If you do something wrong in your work, you can move on, but I’m having to pay for a long time.'I never wanted to become one of those prisoner people. I always wanted to feel free.''I think I've learnt my lesson now and enough is enough.'

Umm, yeah, she's just like one of those prisoner people. Do you think the people in prison feel she is living their life? Yeah, me either. She may have learned her lesson, but I also think that if her dad had not stepped in, Britney would be dead right now. I'm not sure she understands that. To me, when I read these quotes she seems like a person who doesn't quite comprehend that it wasn't just someone who was going out and getting drunk a few times. I wonder if she has even seen the photos of how she looked or seen the footage of the way she was acting. If she has had the guts to sit there and look at the meltdown we were forced to endure each day. I don't get a sense from this that she is ready to be on her own. I'm sure she would feel liberated and I'm sure she would be right back in the same place she was a year ago. Her transformation is remarkable, but it has only occurred because of being one of those prisoner people.

Hey TV Guide It's The 21st Century

I think I have pretty much determined that once you hit the age of about 50, TV Guide tracks you down and sends you a complimentary subscription. For those of you under about the age of 30, you might not really know about TV Guide. Sure, you may have the TV Guide channel on your cable system and you may have seen it in the grocery store, but you really don't know. Until a few years ago, TV Guide was the number one selling magazine in the US. By a lot. It had been in number one for like 40 years. Every week people get a free tv guide in their Sunday newspaper, but when you got the TV Guide from the store it was like a whole other world. Every channel and every program. Summaries of every movie. Color photos of your favorite airbrushed stars. People would get into fights at grocery stores trying to get the Fall Preview issue. Prior to the internet, you didn't know what the fall television shows were going to be until you read it in TV Guide.

Well, apparently they still have the same readers because they just did a poll of the toughest action stars in the history of television, and MacGyver won. I know, I know. Richard Dean Anderson was a great character, but I don't know if he was all that tough. Plus, the show ended like 20 years ago. Magnum PI made the top five also. Wow. I must be remembering a different show because all I remember was a lot of beach and bad acting.

Here is the top 5.

1. MacGyver
2. Buffy The Vampire Slayer
3. Jack Bauer (24)
4. Sydney Bristow (Alias)
5. Magnum P.I.

Yeah That's Going To Help

Do you remember last year when Mindy McCready was actually not in jail for about a month. I know it is hard to remember a time she hasn't been in jail or in custody or being arrested. If she and DMX ever got together, well they would never get together because they would always be separated by their arrests. Anyway, last April she came out and said she had a ten year affair with Roger Clemens that started when she was underage and Roger, who was married with kids was about 28. Her story keeps changing but, she alleges she was between 15-17 at the time it started. Who knows. She has taken so many foreign substances I doubt she can remember any of it.

Anyway, that was in April and it all has died down and everyone is living their life and Mindy is in jail, I think. But, Mindy decided she needed some attention this week and so decided to apologize to Roger Clemens' wife for the ten year affair. Ummm. I think the best idea would have been to just shut the hell up about it and not make her relive it again. All this does is send the news media back out to Roger's house and another few weeks of questions about her husband. To make matters worse, somehow in the course of the apology, Mindy really manages to dig a knife into Roger's gut which can only improve things around the Clemens house.

"I would apologize to her and say I was young. I now know better. I didn't want to get married to (Clemens) and I don't want to get married now. He should have done right by his family. If a person is unhappy in their marriage and spending all their personal time with someone else, you need to do right by your marriage. He should have just told Debbie. And been honest with her. If he didn't want to be with her and wanted to be with me, he should have told her."

To me, doing right by your marriage would roughly translate into not being with Mindy in the first place. Mindy seems to feel that doing right means leaving your wife and kids and moving in with the person you are having sex with even if she is 16. As for being honest with his wife. Maybe he did want to be with her and not Mindy. Maybe he told his wife and she said he could keep sleeping with her. Who knows? All I know is that Mindy McCready just needs to focus on getting off the pipe and not on the Clemens family.

How To Know You Are A Geek

I've known for a long while that I'm a geek or a dork. No, I'm not going to go into some kind of Revenge Of The Nerds monologue here, but those closest to me know I'm a geek and if there were ever any doubt in their minds, the excitement I feel over this story would pretty much lock up my geekdom forever.

In the past week, Antiques Roadshow both here in the US and in the UK have set record valuations. When I saw the headline, I just could not wait to read the story. I knew I was going to write about it even if no one else read it. I had to. Antiques Roadshow is the greatest insight into human nature. It is reality television because it shows, most of the human emotions in each episode. The people displaying them are not actors, wanna be actors or shooting for 15 minutes of fame.

If you have ever watched an episode and seen someone who thought they had nothing, and find out they are now $100K richer, you just want to give them a hug. You are not jealous because you feel their excitement. When someone thinks they have something worth $100K and it turns out it was in fact, not a Tiffany, but a Diffany, you see the anguish on their face. You know all of those years they bragged or told a story about how they found the piece to their friends and family is going through their mind. You just feel sorry for them, unless of course they were smug and had to be shot down.

The emotions are not just left to the people bringing in the items, but also the appraisers. If you have never seen the male twin appraisers practically have an orgasm when they see an 18th century Chippendale desk then you just have not been watching the right kind of shows.

Well, this week, in Palm Springs when Antiques Roadshow was filming they set broke their all-time record twice in one show. The record was broken when someone brought in a signed Meet The Beatles album which was valued at $150,000. But then, a woman brought in a painting by Clyfford Still. Apparently it had been in the family for 50 years when it was given to a family member as a house warming gift. The Roadshow people estimated its worth at $500K, but said that was being very conservative because a recent Still painting fetched $21M at auction. You can see the episode in January when it airs.

In the UK this week they had their first $2M valuation which was a four foot high model of the famous sculpture Angel Of The North. That episode is being repeated later this week.

Daily Mirror Blind Item

Which sexy singer, who pretends to be whiter than snow, was caught holding hands with another man?

It will be the end of the married babe once her fella finds out...

Today's Blind Items

I think it was last week that I wrote about the actor who was going to lose his home if his friends had not chipped in. Tough times for everyone, but sometimes they are of our own making. This female best selling author got into some serious debt because she is addicted to gambling. With casinos hounding her for payment, she turned to a "friend" to help her out. The friend gladly paid off the entire debt to the casinos, but in return got our author to sign over any and all future rights from her books. This author has always been reluctant to have her books appear as films because of some bad previous experiences, but now, she really has no choice because she gave up all the rights. I would predict a flood of made for tv type fare over the next few years all based on her books. Oh, and she is still gambling.

Random Photos Part One

Before I get to the photos, I just wanted to say thanks to Jax, who stepped in when I really needed her to on Friday and did some posting. I took a very last second trip on Friday and was scrambling to get everything organized. She stepped in and I really appreciate it. You did a great job, and I owe you one. Or two or four.

Whatever you may think of the show TRL, it was extremely influential for a very long time. As such, I think it is only fitting that Carson and Damien get the top spot in honor of the show's last day. I'm sure MTV will take the opportunity to fill the time slot with reruns of Road Rules/Real World battles instead of music. At this point they should just completely drop the pretense the channel is about music.
Beyonce - New York
Have not seen Bridget Moynahan in forever. She looks fabulous.
Not looking as fabulous are Brad Pitt and Angelina Jolie. Of course, if you have 14 kids, you are not always going to be looking like a movie star.
It really doesn't seem that long ago that Calista Flockhart was on every tabloid cover every week. Now, she is reduced to being in the mix of some random photos on my blog. I think the people from The Hills and The Kardashians would be wise to remember that.
As Chris Klein continues losing his hair he does look more and more like Suri every day. This whole conspiracy game would have been so much easier if Tom and Katie were blonde or something.
My favorite photo of the day, but honestly, what it made me think of was the Chris Rock movie where he is running for President and Robin Givens kept showing up in the oddest places.
If the UN had just named me a Messenger Of Peace, I think I would be having someone print up t-shirts and asking where the after party was. Charlize Theron just looks bored.
Dave Clark. He is a true legend.
Speaking of legends in their own mind. Look. It's Dan Cortese. He looks exactly the same as when he was on MTV all the time.
Denise Richards showing the kids what she looks like when she wakes up each morning.
Had to post this. Ethan Hawke smiling is so damn rare.
50 Cent - New York
One of my favorite character actors and also in that Chris Rock for President film. That's odd. Can't wait to see the Frost film.
Jeremey Piven looking pretty damn good. He is a good looking guy which probably contributes to the a-hole behavior.
Just a good looking guy. John Stamos.
Another one of my favorite character actors. Kurtwood Smith. This guy always cracks me up.
Mark Ronson looking well, different.
Michael Sheen makes a first time appearance in the photos.
Nelly, Snoop Dogg, Ludacris - New York
Primal Scream - Belfast
The Queen looks like she is trying to remember if she turned off the oven.
Ron Howard in on of the only photos I can remember where he is not wearing a hat.
Have not ever seen a photo of Sara Gilbert or her son together. If I have, I don't remember.
Looks like SuChin Pak may have broken a heel.
You know that Kid Rock made some moves on Taylor Swift.
Apparently she rejected him.
Vanessa Lemon Jello was at the TRL after party. Might as well. It is the only time she has ever been the center of attention. Oh, and when she got naked in Mexico.
The one and only Vivienne Westwood.

Bruno Strikes Again

By the time the Bruno film comes out I'm not sure there will be any gags the public doesn't know about. I really hope his latest one makes it into the film because it is probably priceless. Apparently Bruno managed to get himself hired on as an extra for the television show Medium. Not only did he get hired as an extra, he was actually in a scene that was very tense and dramatic and took almost the entire day to film. Of course, Bruno being there probably made things last a little longer. Whoever was doing the casting decided that Bruno would be a perfect juror and so he was in the jury box along with eleven other people.

The scene was in a courtroom and Patricia Arquette kept trying to deliver her lines when she was repeatedly interrupted by Bruno. Eventually, security grabbed Bruno and dragged him from the jury box. It was only then that someone realized that it was Bruno and not some deranged extra looking for a moment in the spotlight.

I'm guessing that the producers at Medium didn't know anything about it, but someone must have known. They picked that day on purpose because of the scene and how dramatic it was, and so someone somewhere must have clued them in and also helped them get hired on for extras that day.

Daily Mirror Blind Item

Which football star who bills himself as a nicey-nice guy is actually such a grizzly grump to all his staff they're petrified of seeing him?

Just Call Him Kathy Lee Gifford

Although Justin Timberlake is not actually forcing 14 year old kids to make his clothes in some factory somewhere, he is being accused of not paying his employees the money they earned for overtime and also for stealing their tips. I can't tell you how much I hope that a suit filed by one of Justin's ex restaurant employees actually has some legs and that he gets nailed.

Felipe Ramales alleges in his suit that Southern Hospitality regularly did not pay employees overtime when they worked over 40 hours in a week and that the management was also keeping some of the tip money for themselves.

If I were Justin I would just sweep this under the rug right now and give this guy a check. I don't know if the allegations are true, but rich people screwing over poor employees is not the best image enhancer. I'm sure that Kathy Lee would be happy to sit down with Justin and tell him all about it. She was on top of the world before that whole sweat shop thing. Next thing you know she was selling her albums on infomercials and having to stay home all day with Frank.

For their part, Southern Hospitality of course denies all the charges and says their employees are treated better than any other employees on the planet. This of course will be their stance until it is uncovered that Justin and Trace Ayala were using the tip money for lap dances and llama riding classes.

Where Did She Want To Inject Him?

I know we are all supposed to be sad when a couple breaks up, but honestly, I didn't feel a bunch of sympathy for Sharon Stone when I read that her 24 year old boyfriend decided to look into other possibilities when it came to the dating front. I'm actually surprised her relationship lasted five months with Chase Dreyfous. I would have thought the first time she tried to inject Botox into some private area of his body that would have ended things right there.

OK, so no one knows if she actually did try and inject him somewhere, but if I were him I would be sleeping with one eye open wondering what she might have in store for me. Maybe she thought his beans were too wrinkly or something and thought that a nice little shot of botox would fix that right up. Nothing like waking up to see your girlfriend with a syringe in one hand and a vial of botox in the other. When that girlfriend is Sharon Stone you just start flashing through scenes in your head from Basic Instinct, and say that perhaps despite the presents she is giving that the normal woman you met at the grocery store might be a better choice.

According to sources the Daily Mail discovered, the reason the relationship ended was because it had lost its spark after the whole custody battle issue. For me the spark would have ended as soon as Sharon decided that she was going to sing me all the songs she had written. While she was setting up her sound system, I would have been quietly sneaking out the back door.

Yeah She Made It On Her Own

In a recent interview, Bruce Willis was asked about his daughter Rumer Willis' career and whether her parents had given her any help at all in getting work. Bruce said, "She sat us down and said, 'I know you two think you're big shots, but I don't want any help'. And she went off and got work on her own."

Umm, Rumer may have gone off and got work on her own, but it isn't like no one in town knew who she was. Lets face it. If Rumer Willis were just some girl from the middle of nowhere coming out to Hollywood there is no way she would have got any of the roles she has so far been given. Bruce Willis and Demi Moore may not have actually called anyone and said for someone to give Rumer a job, but you don't think some producer or studio is not going to go out of their way to get Rumer into some good roles on the off chance that maybe mom or dad will be grateful and end up doing something for that same producer or studio. It is kind of disingenuous of Bruce to say something like this when he must know that it is Rumer's last name and connections that got her an agent that was decent rather than the typical agent someone with no experience gets.

I don't think Rumer has ever gone into a meeting and said, "do you know who I am?" simply because she doesn't need to say that. Everyone knows who she is. It is because of that she got the roles she has been offered. I don't blame Rumer for any of this. It is not her fault that she was born to her parents and certain advantages are going to come her way simply because of that. What I really don't like is for the spin to be put on the whole thing that says Rumer is struggling like any other actress and that she is completely doing it on her own. That simply isn't true.

It's Scarlett's Fault

I had originally titled this post Blame It On Scarlett, but then for some reason, Blame It On The Rain popped in my head and I started singing it and now I can't get it out of my head and I just can't do that to you. Is it stuck in your head? Can you see the video? Milli Vanilli at their finest. Anyway, this has nothing to do with lip syncing and figured I needed to make that point considering I am going to be talking about singing.

So, by a show of hands, how many people are so sick of I Kissed A Girl by Katy Perry that you have actually tried to throw your car stereo out of your window. I just hate when a song gets so popular and crosses radio formats that you get it on every station up and down the dial, and in the elevator at work and in the grocery store and it just makes you bonkers. Well all that pain is courtesy of Scarlett Johansson.

Apparently Katy Perry confessed that she didn't actually kiss a girl and doesn't know if she would like it, but did write the song about Scarlett's lips and how much she wanted to kiss them. Scarlett, disgusted with the idea of kissing a singer who actually had a hit, said in an interview with Allure Magazine, "That's flattering, but my lips are kind of taken." Why yes they are.

The most amazing thing about this entire story is that Scarlett claims she had never heard the song, never heard about Katy Perry and only heard the tune for the first time when a reporter asking her about it, played it for her. Does anyone else find that shocking? I know she might not listen to the radio. But, she is a self professed singer and musician who has her own album out. In my experience, singers and musicians surround themselves with other singers and musicians and a wide variety of music is discussed and listened to. I just find it really hard to believe that she could have gone this long without hearing it or knowing who Katy Perry is. Maybe Scarlett just wants us to think she is an artist and not a Top 40 singer. That would explain why no one wants to go see her perform.

We're Divorcing?

I hate divorce. I really do. It sucks for everyone involved unless you are married to Denise Richards. Then, it is like a release from death. Of course, that feeling only lasts for about a day, and then you realize that she is going to be even worse after the marriage. Anyway. After six divorces and some breakups that didn't result in a trip to the drive through chapel in Vegas, I can say for sure one very important thing. Both of us knew a divorce was coming.

You don't just go through life and smile pretty and then one day kiss each other goodbye in the morning and one of you goes and files for divorce. It doesn't happen that way. OK, I take that back. It has happened one time that I remember in the history of celebrity relationships. When Billy Bob left Laura Dern she thought everything was fine and was shocked he didn't come back. Still though, even in that case, there must have been some phone calls or something after he left which indicated that perhaps he would not be coming back.

So, when I read that Debbie Matenopoulos first learned about her husband filing for divorce from internet reports, I said to myself that is a bunch of crap, and she must not have very many friends. If you were Debbie's friend and you saw the report, don't you think you might pick up the phone and give her a call? A little hug over the phone?

"I am not a proponent of divorce and I believe in working things out. So you can only imagine my extreme sadness and disillusionment when I was informed of my husband's divorce proceedings, much like you were, by reading them online."

So, obviously there were problems. From what I understand, her husband wanted no part of working out Debbie's particular issue. I think she was more upset by the fact that she couldn't have done it before him or had a statement ready rather than the fact he did it. She doesn't say she is sad they are divorcing, only that she is sad she found out about it online. Read it carefully. She wanted to control the spin. I think he was just tired of being spun.

NY Daily News Blind Item

Which recently rehabbed actress is still dabbling in the hard stuff? Whatever she put up her nose the other night was so toxic, it melted the Blackberry screen she was using to cut up her drugs.
