Four For Friday

#1 & #2 - This A list country singer who is not known for her pleasant, charming personality despite at one time being America's favorite gets a little mean when she drinks. OK, more than a little. In fact, she got so drunk at one birthday party that she began yelling and screaming at her guests and the guests of her then boyfriend who is a celebrity in his own right. Most of the guests decided to leave but she did keep the presents.

#3 - This female singer is always in the spotlight no matter what she chooses to try and sing. If we went by singing talent alone she would probably be a B at best but I wouldn't argue if you called her a C. Sings a few different styles of music. Anyway, she has had the same boyfriend for awhile now, but everytime she visits him she still cannot get into the elevator by herself and remember what floor he lives on or how to coordinate the key card needed for the elevator with the the pressing of the button for the floor. If she has a drink or two, forget it. It could be 15 minutes. Now, when security sees her coming they just walk her to the elevator and do it themselves.

#4 - This actress is B list. Movies all the way. Never done television. Academy Award nominated/winner. Makes a big production about being a vegetarian and animal rights but at the same time sends her assistant out for Burger King at least twice a week to bring her back a Double Whopper. I know. A double? She must puke it all back up right?

Gwyneth Is Full Of Gwyneth

Besides the joy I get from reading Kim Kardashian's blog, I would have to say that Gwyneth Paltrow's website is fast moving into the lead from the sheer amount of self righteous unbelievable crap she spews forth on an almost constant basis. What did she do this time you may be asking?

Well, Gwyneth has decided to share with the world her secret for the perfect Valentine's Day dinner. Now, you and I both know that the odds of Gwyneth eating any of this stuff she say she prepared and ate is a bunch of crap. Everything on the menu are things she says she either doesn't eat or has specifically stated she hates.

Now, in order to get your partner in the mood, Gwyneth suggest starting with oysters because of their known aphrodisiac qualities. OK, now I don't know if she has ever said yay or nay to seafood in the past, but I do know that if she were trying to get me to have sex with her, she is going to need something a whole lot stronger than oysters and I am going to need to see some cash.

For her main course, Gwyneth says that she loves Cornish hens and artichoke hearts. Uh huh. I would actually believe the artichoke part but if she is eating them she must not have prepared them herself. There is no way she spent the time in the kitchen necessary to cook artichokes. What she did was probably hire someone to do it and every few minutes she would come in and ask how come they were not finished. Cornish game hen? Right. You let me know when Gwyneth sits down and eats some chicken

But the very best part. What does Gwyneth suggest for dessert? And remember she says that she prepared and ate everything on the menu. She suggests molten chocolate cakes. Umm. Gwyneth. You are on record as saying you hate chocolate so forgive me if this doesn't sound as bad as you getting to come back for Iron Man 2.

NY Daily News Blind Item

Which disturbed loser is more of a cad than we thought? He’s spilling the beans about his former flame’s kinky sex habits to anyone who’ll listen.

Your Turn

I know I usually have Your Turn a little later in the day, but I wanted everyone to have the chance to really participate today and share some great stories. So, with that in mind and with Valentine's Day coming up tomorrow, I thought that what would be best today is: The most romantic thing anyone has ever done for you, or that you have done for someone. I want details people. I know everyone else wants details. It doesn't have to have occurred on Valentine's Day. Whatever it was, we all want to hear about it. All of mine involve some kind of food or booze or combination thereof. Tends to get messy later.

Crazier Than Octuplet Mom

If you thought the octuplet mom story was something you haven't seen a damn thing yet. I saw this story last night but forgot about it in my nightly drunken haze. Luckily Ror, who seems to control his liquor better e-mailed it to me and reminded me about it. So, thanks to Ror for that. What you see in the photo above is not a brother and sister admiring their younger sister. Noooooo. Why on earth would I show that? Well, I would I guess if it was important, but, I'm losing focus. No, this is way crazier than that.

Those two people holding the baby are the parents of that little girl. Yes!! I know. The boy is 13 and he looks, what, about 7? His girlfriend and the mother of his child is 15. This is absolutely nuts to me. And lest you think this couple is from some third world country or something, they aren't. They live in the UK. They had sex when the boy Alfie was just 12. It was just a one night thing and when they found out Chantelle was pregnant they decided to have the baby. Alfie of course was worried his parents would be a bit upset. Apparently they are taking it quite well. Alfie of course has no f**king idea how much babies cost or the price of a diaper or formula or anything else. He did say that his dad sometimes gives him as much as $15 a week and he hopes that will be enough to take care of the baby.

For now, the baby and Chantelle live at Chantelle's house. She has five brothers and her only parent is her dad who currently doesn't have a job. Alfie is allowed to spend the night at the house and even has his school uniform there so he can go straight to school in the mornings. Umm, my math sucks but is there any chance that dad and daughter could ever end up in school at the same time. If he went to a private school with K-12 and he is in 7th grade say. Then when he is a senior than potentially he could go to the same school as his daughter. Wow. That just blows my mind.

Tori Worries That Dean Will Cheat

Sometimes you read something and you just say to yourself, "wow, so and so really is an idiot." In this particular case it is Tori Spelling who will take the idiot honor for today. In a little blurb the NY Daily News ran today, Tori confessed that her greatest fear is that Dean will find someone on a set he works on and cheat on her because that's how they met. Dean in fact, tells everyone that Tori thinks that just to show how manly and virile he is and to see if they do want to sleep with him.

Tori. Seriously. You really think Dean would cheat on you? The only reason he cheated on his wife and got you to cheat on your husband was that he saw a meal ticket. Now, I won't say that he would never cheat on you but it is going to be someone that is a much better meal ticket and more famous than you. Plus, in order for him to be able to cheat on you while working he would actually be having to work. As in get a job. As in don't follow you around everywhere you go and have a company that signs him a check and not one that you wrote him. Now, I grant you that he is in pre-production on Santa Baby 2 which should pay him a fortune as an actor and I guess he could live off what they pay him for that. I mean that must be a check in the millions right? I'm guessing they are paying him in the hopes that Tori will make a cameo in the movie and maybe they can get more than one person to watch it.

If Dean ever cheats on you Tori it would be about the dumbest move he could make. Not that you are that hot or anything, but please, he is not going to throw away that meal ticket for anything. If you dumped him he would probably turn into the Michael Lohan of the next generation.

Ashlee Simpson Has Scheduling Issues?

I don't know if you saw the reports yesterday that Manhattan Junglebook may have broken his arm. If you didn't, the way the story goes is that according to E!, Ashlee Simpson missed an appearance at a Las Vegas party and that immediately led to the conclusion that the baby had broken his arm. I know, I know. Apparently, someone thought they saw Ashlee at the hospital with the baby as well and so one thing led to another. It's crazy huh? Well, according to Simpson's rep (read Joe), everything is fine and everyone is healthy and Ashlee missed the appearance simply because of scheduling issues.

Ummm. Wait. You had me believing everything until the whole scheduling issue thing. When is the last time you saw Ashlee Simpson do anything anywhere? It isn't exactly like she is all over the airwaves or doing press or singing or performing or doing anything at all. So, I find it really hard to believe that all of a sudden her schedule was so jam packed that she couldn't find the time to pick up some fast cash in Vegas. Now, of course her husband does make a decent living and perhaps she felt that she didn't want to go host a party in Vegas because that would invariably mean Dad would be tagging along and hounding her to get phone numbers of women he could help with their career. So, instead she and her dad probably had a fight and she says she wasn't going and the next thing you know Manhattan has a broken arm and Ashlee has scheduling issues. See how that works. I do hope the baby is ok.

Ted C Blind Item

Schlong Sleaze-Wad has been in the news on and off, and as with most of the tabloid targets—it ain't good. Schlong's a somewhat happily taken hetero (too hetero) dude who just can't keep it in his trousers. Lotsa folks in Tinseltown know it, including Schlong's wife.

And even though notorious Schlongy appears to be residing back on Domesticity Lane, something he's been trying so-so hard to get everybody to believe, we ain't buying it. See, aside from luring at costars or any female with ta-tas on the set, we know S2's past (and present). He likes 'em young. Almost the kind of young that'll legally get ya in trouble, which surely very nearly happened when...

Mr. Sleaze-Wad struck yet again.

Clearly, Schlongy thinks that just because he's famous, endowed and not butt ugly, this means every woman within spitting distance of his constantly semierect package should break down, bow and submit to his every nasty desire.

Like when he just tricked a barely legal babe who works in entertainment, offering to go out to lunch with him so he could further "mentor" her career. Before she knew it, they were sneaking around on the job, making out in every dark corner they could find. But once the quasi-brain-dead babe came to her senses, she realized the man in her arms was (a) married, (b) probably diseased in some sort or another and (c) not at all interested in discussing Rob Pattinson's next career move or Britney's way better extensions.

So she ended the somewhat heated fling, which had, thus far, only included heavy French smooching, serious groping and no mentoring whatsoever, quelle surprise.

Gosh, Professor Prick, how could you let one of your students down so?

And it ain't: Kevin Dillon, Peter Facinelli, Chris Brown

Today's Blind Items

This really could be something that is not a blind item, but the person who gave it to me really wants it as a blind rather than with a big screaming EXCLUSIVE all over it. I don't have the why yet, but it is supposed to be very interesting. You have a B- list television actress from one of the best television ensemble comedies of all time and she is getting divorced from her well connected industry husband who has had a sporadic career despite his connections. Even though they have a very, very, very young child the marriage has no chance of making it.

On top today is the Victoria Bushfire Appeal. Because I am not a news site, I have not really talked about the terrible devastation and loss of life that has occurred in Australia over the past two weeks. When I speak to my friends over there they are all just in shock. One friend there who actually lives in Melbourne described it as what she imagined the Apocalypse would be like. Gale force winds 120 degree heat and fire and people didn't stand a chance. The fact that most of the fires were deliberately set is just unspeakable. To all my friends and readers in Australia, I do hope you know that all of us are thinking of you and all stand to help if you need anything.

Good News And Bad News For Mandy Moore

Whenever someone tells you whether you want good news or bad news first. Oh, I should stop and make this like a Your Turn at some point. OH, well, just make it a Thursday one. Still have one tomorrow but you can say whether you would want good news or bad news first. My philosophy is that you need to get that bad news out of the way so you can get that instant gratification back with the good news. I equate it to make up sex. You are left with nothing but a positive memory and the garbage still sitting in the kitchen where it has remained for the past four days.

Anyway, Mandy Moore folded her fashion line. Not like she actually flew to Tokyo and folded it up like the old SNL Gap skits with Sandler and Spade and Farley. Those were classics by the way. She said she would be very careful about getting back into the fashion world and would only do so with a really great partner. Sounds to me like she got really screwed over.

Someone who she hopes won't be screwing her over is Ryan Adams who she is now engaged to. It is about time Mandy got started on the road to multiple marriages. No, I wish her the best of luck and hope it is much more successful than the clothing line.

Quick Hits

Starter Wife Finished - Debra Messing is out of a job. The Starter Wife has been canceled by the USA network because it has basically tanked in the ratings since becoming a weekly show. It should have stayed a mini-series but people get greedy and thought they could make a buck. The last episode aired on December 12.

Catherine Hardwicke Turned Down Tons Of $ - Apparently Catherine Hardwicke would like us all to know she can't be bought. The Twilight director was offered more money than she or her family had ever seen or heard about before to direct the second installment of the series. Hardwicke though refused to compromise her artistic integrity and therefore turned the company down when they would not agree to her shooting schedule. Oh well. I understand the thing about integrity and all that, but it is Twilight. It is not going to be Oscar nominated. It is a popcorn flick. They are the films you make your money on. When you have all that stupid money then you go shoot the documentary about the African stinging beetle and how it is affecting the literacy rate of 8-12 year old boys in Chad who come from a single family home.

Bye Bye Nicollette - Nicollette Sheridan is saying goodbye to Desperate Housewives. I think she is also probably saying goodbye to a steady paycheck. The actress is getting less face time and so this is probably a good thing for the other four housewives and not such a good thing for the future endeavors of Nicollette who her rep said is looking forward to her next project. Uh huh. Hello David Spade.

Aubrey O'Day Will Have Sex With You Anytime Anywhere

I am not a Playboy expert. I for instance don't know who the December 1994 centerfold was or what her turn ons are, but I am sure there are people who do know. However, I have seen enough articles and interviews in the magazine to know that most of their celebrity pictorial subjects give very bland, blase interviews which they would also give to Redbook. There is nothing exciting about what they are saying, it is just the fact they are naked on the opposite page or showing you they had a Brazilian that makes it different from Redbook.

Well, Aubrey O' Day is not really a celebrity. OK, well I guess she is, and she certainly is not shy about telling the entire world that she will have sex with anyone anytime anywhere and wants to be the best at it in the world. It's nice to have a goal in life. Couldn't be the best singer or dancer but she is going to be the best f**k in the world even if she has to practice on everyone to get there. She isn't a quitter. She will f**k you to become the best. You have to admire that kind of dedication and old world craftsmanship.

"I've done it in cabs, clubs, everywhere. I want to be that girl who gives a guy the best sex he has ever had, the sex he’ll never be able to get out of his head. I’m more of a catch than anybody realizes."

On that last part at first I thought it said, you never know what you will catch. Couldn't have said that better myself. Good luck on the porn career. Oh? You thought it was just going to be Playboy? Please.

Even CBS Knows Joaquin Phoenix Was Whacked Out Of His Mind

You have to love when even the network knows something funny was going on with a guest. Last night on Letterman, CBS said, "Joaquin Phoenix was in the chair, but was he present for the interview?" I think Joaquin was present in an interview but it was going on somewhere in the deep recesses of his mind and he was doing it with a monkey named Eduardo who only spoke to him in Aramaic.

This interview, if not a put up job, will go down with the Farrah Fawcett interviews, as well as the Crispin Glover interview which is still tops in my book as the craziest on Letterman. It is 5 minutes you won't get back, but you really do need to watch the interview.

Which British star hates the gym so much that the only way she can face the treadmill is by taking two lines of coke pre-workout?

American Idol Shocker!!!!

Every story I have seen today makes it seem like what happened yesterday and this morning in American Idol is the equivalent of front page news that should be splashed in banner headlines around the world. For those of you who choose not to watch American Idol or didn't catch the entire drama here it is according to me.

Apparently, like last year on the show there was a contestant this year who had already had a single (Let It Slide) and album (This Crazy Life) released on a major label. Neither did that great and so Joanna Pacitti kind of faded away. Kind of. While she was fading she allegedly became involved with an executive of 19 Management which is one of the companies that oversees the show. Lo and behold, Joanna auditions for the show, gets picked and makes it to the final 36. She made it to the final 36 despite the fact she wasn't supposed to be there because of her prior experience, and that because this is essentially a game show, any interaction with an executive of the show could be considered attempting to fix the outcome of the game. There have already been reports that anything negative she has done along the way such as forgetting words or missing notes has been edited out in an attempt to make her the clear favorite.

Well after making the final 36 last night, FOX executives stepped in and replaced with her a married mother from Virginia Beach named Felicia Barton. If you want to see the video and hear the song Joanna previously released it is down below.

Episode 6 Of Groupidity

One of the favorite characters is always Julie. But it wouldn't be appropriate for Julie to share in group. So Episode 6 focuses on Julie's life outside of Group. This episode features John Dixon as the WTF guy and Jorge Pallo who has been portraying the sexy guidance counselor on The Secret Life of the American Teenager. And you get just a taste of the hilarious Elizabeth Ann Harris.

Chris Brown / Rihanna Update

It seems as if you have ever served Chris Brown a hamburger in the past year, some news organization is going to find you and ask whether or not he beat you before you got back your change. So far, news media have interviewed his former teachers, all of his family members, his former family members, his stylist, employees of the casino where he is holed up burning through what is left of the cash that will need to sustain him the rest of his life, and also interviewed Terrence Howard who later had to retract what he said because it made him seem like an insensitive jerk. He is of course, but didn't want the world to know it so blatantly.

As far as any actual news, it seems that Chris Brown's people were trying to fire back as best they could. They made public Chris Brown's private Facebook page and said that Chris would talk about Rihanna's true colors. They also threw out the STD story again and I think they will keep throwing that one out there because it is the only one they think doesn't show them as the complete a-holes they are. They probably don't realize that by spreading that story they really seem even more like a-holes. Also, since the District Attorney's office wants the police to investigate further, they will probably want to interview Chris and Rihanna again before sending the report back to the DA and the DA deciding what, if any charges to file against Brown.

That's How Accidents Happen

As a guy I can certainly appreciate the attraction of a stripper pole in the house. You and your special someone can use it to spice up the sex life, get a work out or even hook up a basketball hoop to it. Whatever works for you. What will make it instantly come down is coming in one day and finding your mother trying to use it. Yeah. After that it was only used to wrap Christmas lights around during parties and at the holidays.

Anyway, enough of the past and reasons why I see a therapist. Instead lets talk about a new report in US Weekly that says Kate Hudson had a stripper pole installed in her bathroom. Kate is no stranger to stripper poles. You might think I am going to make a joke here, but she actually has had one for a very long time and even has suffered injuries from her use of them. Seriously. There was a leg muscle pull and some pole burn she suffered while using it for Chris Robinson back in the day.

Anyway, I am wondering if installing a metal pole in a bathroom is the best decision ever. Now, I understand that Kate's bathroom is probably more like the size of a bedroom to an everyday person, but it seems to me that it would still tend to get wet and slippery from steam or Vaseline or what have you and would inevitably lead to some spectacular accidents and injuries. All I'm saying is that most accidents happen in the home and this doesn't seem like a good way to prevent them. Do you really need a pole in your bedroom and bathroom? Are you sitting on the toilet and then suddenly you get a great idea for a move and you can walk the extra 15 feet into your bedroom? Is it for the other person to watch you while they are brushing their teeth or keeping them entertained while they are shaving? Tired of watching television while taking a bath and decided to hire some strippers to entertain you instead?

Octuplet Mom Hospital Bill Expected To Be $1.1M

According to statistics dug up, the average hospital bill of a premature baby in 2006 was about $130,000. I don't think it is unreasonable to assume that in the three years since that number could have risen to $142,000 which if you multiply by 8 is $1.1M (yes I had 14 on the brain) that the people of the State of California are going to be paying. That by the way does not include the medical bills we already have paid for Nadya Suleman's six other kids or all her doctor visits after pregnancy or all her children's shots and pediatrician visits. Of course since three of her first six children are disabled we have all been paying for those bills as well.

If all of that was not bad enough, the NY Post today increases the $300K I say that NBC paid Nadya, and says that NBC paid her well over $1.2M for everything. NBC denies paying her or her representatives, but where there is smoke, there is fire. What they also said in the article, but didn't expand on was the fact that Nadya had planned all of this in advance. She arranged for her birth to be filmed and pictures were taken because she knew she was going to be able to sell it all. She was basically getting the State of California to finance her publicity stunt in which she will reap all the rewards and we will be stuck paying for everything. Oh, and for those of you in other states or other countries, don't worry. You know that someone out there is already trying to think of a way to duplicate this feat so they can get some easy cash.

My only wish for today is that we could go to Nadya's website and read the comments people are leaving. I want to see every comment which they will never do unfortunately.

I am really confused by this Jessica Simpson cover. She never says she will lose 20 pounds in 8 weeks. She is not even quoted in the article. Even the "source" doesn't say it. Also, by saying what they are saying on the cover is OK! telling the world that Jessica Simpson is 20 pounds overweight because I would have to disagree with that.
The one and only Parker Posey
Wow. Not too much difference between Rip Torn's mug shot and a shot a press conference.
This could be the first time in the photos for Steven Spielberg and Kate Capshaw.
Sharon Stone was in London for about 2 days. EVERY person and bag you see in the foreground of this photo either works for her or sleeps with her. All of this stuff, but no kids. And is that a carpet she is wearing? Did she stop by an IKEA and say, "hmmm, yes. Cut some holes in it and I will take it."
I really like Harry Hamlin's tie. I would be distressed to know if I were he though to know he and Tom Arnold have identical taste in eye wear.

Prince Harry Gets In More Trouble - Last month, Prince Harry had to apologize after some derogatory remarks he made about a Pakistani army officer came to light. Now, he is in more trouble after some public comments he made about black comedian Stephen Amos who performed at the 60th birthday party of Prince Charles. After Amos finished his set, Harry said, "You don't sound like a black chap." Amos has said that after Harry delivered the remark he wanted to reply, "How is I supposed to sound?" Of course no one had any comment about the whole thing. This seems to be turning into a habit for Harry. He needs to break it fast.

Ne-Yo Gets Sued - Ne-Yo was scheduled to play a New Year's Eve show in Bellevue Washington. The promoters paid him $95,000 upfront and arranged for his hotel and airfare and all of his other demands. Ne-Yo turned up in Washington, but decided he really had better things to do NYE and failed to show up at the gig. He is being sued for the $95K and an extra $1M in damages.

Atlantic Swim Was A Hoax - Earlier this week I almost posted the photo of the American woman who had claimed to be the first woman to swim across the Atlantic Ocean. Turns out that all she really did was swim about 250 miles of the 2500 mile journey and spent the rest of the time on a sailboat. After reveling in all of the media hype for a few days, people apparently started doing the math and realized it would have been impossible for her to do it in the time she says she did it. Her response? She said she never intended to swim the Atlantic. Uh huh. Well she sure told a whole lot of people she did.

Octuplet Mom Gets $300K From NBC For Interviews

OK, so I did say probably yesterday when I said I was done talking about Nadya Suleman. I just can't help it. It is like crack. Last night she was on Dateline NBC as a part of what has been reported to be a payment of $300K for all of her interviews on the network. Apparently she was willing to take a reduced amount in order to have Ann Curry be the one to interview her.

In last night's interview, Ann asked Nadya if Nadya had ever had plastic surgery and Nadya said no. Umm, yeah. Then how did her lips go from being really thin to lips that would make Lisa Rinna jealous. Oh, and that nose. That is not the same nose she had before. This is a new and improved nose that looks remarkably like Angelina Jolie's nose.

Something that Nadya needs to learn about though is that she is not lying to her mom here about disability payments or having a job. When she makes a statement now, every news organization in the world is going to check out her story. If she had plastic surgery or had her lips filled, they will find out and they will confront her about it.

She did say last night that she was done having more children. "A hundred percent. Two hundred, three hundred, four hundred percent," she said. "Yes. I'm done.

"This is a message, I believe, from God that you are done. I never in my wildest dreams imagined [my family] being this big."

At this point I hope she keeps her promise but at this point I would not put anything past her. What I really want now, and what I think everyone is really hoping for is an interview with the father of these kids. I think everyone is going to be curious about him. Also, Nadya is divorced but I haven't seen an interview with her ex-husband either. That would be a really good interview as well. I would imagine that news people are probably trying to negotiate some amount of money to get them to reveal their stories.

Kenny Chesney Keeps Score

Kenny Chesney wants the world to know he isn't gay and he to prove it he wants you to know that he had already slept with over 100 women as of a few years ago. In an interview with Playboy that is appearing in this month's issue, Kenny says, "Man, I was over 100 several years ago. There were years when I had a better summer than A-Rod, buddy. You know? I got on the boards quite often."

He got on the boards? What the hell does that mean? Was he riding the headboards? Does he not believe in beds and simply lays down a few boards and uses that as his playing field? In all my years of having a man card I have never heard that term before. Is that his pickup line? "Hey baby, want to do some boards?"

I think we all know why his marriage to Renee Zellweger was annulled. He actually thought she was a board. No? Well, it was a guess.

He actually said the reason the annulment mentioned was fraud was because it was something they mutually agreed upon because the other choices were physical or mental abuse. So, when asked if he, is in fact gay, Kenny responded by saying, "What guy who loves girls wouldn't be angry about that ...? I didn't sign up for that. I think people need to live their lives the way they want to, but I'm pretty confident in the fact that I love girls (laughs). I've got a long line of girls who could testify that I am not gay."

Yeah, having them take a number and showing them your boards will certainly prove that you are not gay. Seriously wtf is this board thing?

Courtney Love & Mickey Rourke Equals Trouble

According to the UK Mirror, Mickey Rourke and Courtney Love are having a little fling. Well, at least it is a fling to Mickey. As he told the reporters who asked him about the relationship, Courtney is just one of many. "I love the ladies and the ladies love me," said Mickey.

Apparently though, Courtney doesn't think of it as a fling. In her mind she and Mickey are already thinking of china patterns and who will be invited to the wedding and subsequent funeral after Mickey "kills himself." OK, maybe that is a little too far. There is a strong possibility that might not happen.

While the two female reporters were interviewing Mickey and being fondled by him all while standing right in front of Courtney, apparently Courtney was texting Mickey. Umm. The guy is right there in front of you. Again, I'm not sure if Mickey can even text. This issue has been raised before. And I know for sure that if Courtney texts anything like she writes in her blog there are probably very few people who could decipher anything she could text.

It seems to me that Courtney would probably not be as polite as texting Mickey and would in fact, start screaming and yelling at him and basically create a scene. I can't even imagine what a relationship would be like between the two of them. Throw Bai Ling into the mix and it is just one whacked out, crazy, my kind of gossip friendly relationship.

Defending Brangelina

Hey, for once I think I am going to come to the aid of Brad and Angelina. Not they that really need my aid. They seem to do fine on their own. Hell, if anything they should come to my aid. Or a small country. How much money do you think they have anyway? Between the two of them after agents,managers and taxes I think they probably pull in about $50M a year.

Anyway, the couple were at the BAFTA's on Sunday night. They left four of the kids at the hotel with their nanny and told the kids they could play outside the suite if they were good. Sounds just like all parents. I have no idea where the twins were. Maybe they have their own nanny? Maybe they don't travel everywhere with the family and Jon Voight just keeps them in his garage waiting for photo ops.

Although Brangelina tried to rent out the entire floor of the hotel, they were unsuccessful at their attempts, and as a result there were several guests on the floor. The suites on that floor cost about $6500 a night so chances are they have a few bucks.

Well a few of them apparently complained about all the noise that four kids were doing as they ran up and down the halls screaming and well, behaving like children. The horror. The nanny was trying to keep them calm and would get them all out of the way when a guest came walking by, but, you can picture it. 4 kids, none older than 7 in a hotel hallway.

The tabloids are giving Brad and Angelina a hard time about this saying they should have more control over their kids. To me that is a bunch of crap. I'm sure they do have control over their kids, but just because they are Brangelina's kids they are supposed to sit quietly in a chair reading books and taking tea while discussing the practicalities of whether trains really can talk and if there is an island of Sodor.

Please. The kids were being kids and this was all happening at around 8pm or so. If the guests are that uptight, then they really need to get a life or a kid and see what it is like. If you need to rent one I think Nadya Suleman is going to start doing that to make money.

What Do You Think?

The NY Daily News has some great gossip today about former professional baseball player Roberto Alomar being sued by his former girlfriend because he knowingly had sex with her while he was suffering from full blow AIDS.

Sounds horrible, and it is a really good read. The thing is you have to read it a couple of times. If you believe everything that is said then, it does appear that Roberto does have AIDS.

She says they started dating in 2002 and started having unprotected sex about a month later. In 2004 they moved in together. At some point this year she noticed he had cold sores in his mouth. In 2005 after a Tampa Bay Devil Rays physical exam a doctor there said Roberto should get a HIV test, but Roberto refused saying he was clean. A few months later the couple moved to Cleveland where he tested positive. At that point, his girlfriend Ilya Dall said she tested negative and stopped having unprotected sex with him. They didn't break up however until about four months ago.

In her suit she is demanding at least $15 million in punitive damages, claiming Alomar caused her emotional distress and exposed her children to the virus.

"He jeopardized the health, well-being and life of the plaintiff, which caused her to have a fear of contracting AIDS, often referred to as AIDS phobia."

OK, I agree that if he knew he was HIV+ and continued to have unprotected sex with her that is unconscionable. This is where I am a little confused though. She is suing for emotional distress and because he exposed her kids to AIDS, but she lived with him for 3 years AFTER she discovered he had AIDS. During those three years her kids lived with her and Roberto and it didn't seem to bother her. She continued to have protected sex with him after she discovered he had AIDS.

The whole thing sounds awful and she really does appear to be a victim and Roberto is not a nice person. Don't think I am taking his side because I can't stand him. He once spit in the face of an umpire during a game. He is an a-hole of monumental proportions. I just think this might not be the most valid lawsuit ever filed. It is hard to argue for those things when you continued to live with him, have sex with him and have your kids live there too.

Now, what is interesting to me is that prior to this relationship with Dall, Roberto was with pro tennis player Mary Pierce for a very long time. I would be interested to see what she has to say about this.

So, what do you think? Does she have a case or is she just trying to get more bucks?

Still No New Charges In Chris Brown Case

According to CNN, the Los Angeles District Attorney asked the police department for an additional investigation before deciding whether or not to file additional charges against Chris Brown for the incident which occurred on Saturday night. Apparently whatever the police department handed over was not sufficient for some reason.

Today, there have been several sites of which I believe Bossip.com was the first which state that Rihanna started the fight. Ummm. So? Chris Brown's camp is spinning a story that Chris was driving and had to defend himself. Uh huh. Tell you what. Next time you are driving your car, see if you can get hard enough punches to your passenger to give them two black eyes while also driving your car and trying to keep your cell phone away from your passenger. Good luck with that experiment. I would practice in an open field if you are going to do that.

Even if Rihanna started it, then you just have to be the better person and walk away. If she keeps beating you, then you call the police on her and let them handle it. Don't start beating her. Oh, and don't start beating her and then leave her in the middle of the street in the middle of the night. Oh, and whoever in Chris Brown's camp is trying to spread the story that Rihanna has a STD and that was the reason for the fight, that is just so wrong. First of all even if it were true, how does that explain what happened in the car? What? They were driving and then she told Chris and he stopped the car and started beating her? Please. Show us more respect than your client showed Rihanna. Maybe if he hadn't been f**king everything he could find for the past six months none of this would have ever happened.

What Academy Award nominated actor has been taking every opportunity to try and recruit for his new church? Oh, it isn't a church he started attending. It is a church he just recently started for himself based on an entirely new denomination that he has created out of his head. He feels that he has a lot of wisdom and teaching he can pass along. So, far, despite handing out hundreds of cards and brochures, attendance at the church which he holds at his house has averaged about 2. Besides the fact it is strange, apparently he believes church should start promptly at 5am.

Therefore they have signed on with Hilco Consumer Capital who will license products including, shoes, food, collectibles, luggage, musical instruments, and stationery, with the Bob Marley family of brands. No word yet on whether they will have a bong line, but at least we know if they do that Michael Phelps will be able to find one sponsor.

Grey's Goodbyes - Confirming what I told all of you about 2 months ago, James Pickens Jr let it blab that TR Knight wants off Grey's and won't be back. What he added that is new is that he is taking Katherine Heigl with him when he walks out the door. US Magazine talked to James Pickens Jr and he said, he wished nothing but Katherine the best. He didn't say the same about TR though I don't think.

That's A Big Baby - Apparently Paul Stanley's wife Erin called Dr. Love and gave birth to an 8 pound daughter last week. Contrary to myth, she didn't come out of the womb wearing full makeup and singing Rock And Roll All Nite. She did request the family move to Detroit Rock City though and if you leave some milk laying around she will Lick It Up. Too much? Going for the fourth song reference was probably too much.

Plastic Surgery Is Real Surgery

Plastic surgery is so common now that everyone always thinks of it as something you can do on a lark and pay some bucks and you come out looking like a brand new you or bigger you or younger version of you and their is no downside except for the lighter wallet and the soreness.

But, the thing is plastic surgery is real surgery and I think many people don't realize how serious it is. In Tameka Foster's case it appears that the surgery she was in Brazil for was lipo suction and while she was being put under she had cardiac and respiratory arrest which I think is the fancy word for a heart attack. Apparently it was so serious that she was put into a medically induced coma which is why Usher brought with him a neuro-surgeon from Cedars here in LA. Apparently that doctor is Gabriel Hunt. Reporters spotted him leaving the hospital in Sao Paulo but he didn't say anything to them.

Although it is very rare, Tameka Foster makes the 2nd person after Kanye West's mother last year to have plastic surgery go very wrong. Those are just the celebrity ones. How many people in the world die on the operating table just because they want larger breasts? Is it worth it? Are you willing to risk death, no matter how small the chance just to get your breasts enlarged? If you are an adult you can make that decision and weigh the risks and rewards yourself. But, what if you are 18 or 19? Sure you are an adult, but maybe for the past 10 years of your life you have been bombarded with ways you should change this or change that to look like someone. Are you really going to even listen to the doctor when they say you might die on the table? Nope. They are just going to do it.

I'm too lazy to look it up, but I wonder how many people die each year while undergoing routine plastic surgery. Obviously it isn't always that routine.

DMX Is A People Person

Well, we already knew that DMX was not much of a dog person, or dog lover. Now though it turns out he is not really much of a people person either. Apparently his copy of How To Win Friends And Influence people was lost by Amazon and so he does his best. As we have seen, that isn't always pretty. In his latest example of how not to succeed in prison, DMX apparently forgot to take his meds. According to TMZ, when the guards went looking for DMX and to tell him he needed to take his meds and head on over to his job he said, "I already have a job and don't need this s**t."

He then threatened to beat up all the guards in the jail which caused him to be thrown into isolation and to have all of his meals basically consist of bread and water. Ahhh, good times. I have had diets like that, but mine were more of the Top Ramen variety. Of course it wasn't much of a diet because I would eat about 8 of them at a time. I know, I know. The chemicals. But sometimes, as in a Twinkie chemicals are a wonderful thing.

Kim Kardashian Has Nothing To Say

Whenever I need something to write about, all I have to do is click on over to Kim Kardashian's website. It is just impossible for her to not say something which is just priceless. For those of you who watched E! prior to the Grammy Awards you may have seen Kim out on the red carpet doing interview and probably collecting phone numbers for when Reggie Bush dumps her. Although come to think of it, his career seems to be spiraling down into nothing so maybe he will be trying to hang on to Kim if she seems like a viable money ticket.

Anyway, Kim took to her website to describe her arduous preparations for the red carpet and must have name dropped about a million products that she used, has used, or wants to use, provided they give it all to her for free of course. There were very few sentences where she doesn't rattle off one product or designer or wish list.

The part that made me want to devote 20 minutes writing about her though was this line:

The pre-show went great, except the time the prompter went out and I was left with Jason Mraz and nothing to say! It only was a two-second pause, then we hit the interview full force! He was great and the interview went smoothly!

Ummm. Why on earth would you admit to the world you have nothing to say. I mean, with the exception of your slobbering fans which primarily consist of people who sit in front of their computers watching an endless loop of your "porno," most people have already guessed you really don't have much to say.

I can't believe E! went through the time and trouble to actually load up the prompter with questions for people she was interviewing. There was probably some poor PA scrambling somewhere to load in the Jason Mraz questions. I would have loved it if they had decided they didn't really care about their job and just filled the prompter with questions say, for John Mayer instead. Kim probably wouldn't know and would just blindly ask the questions anyway.

Why didn't E! just hire someone who would have taken the time to prepare for every possible interview and then the entire prompter scenario would have been unnecessary. I can bet you that Giuliana didn't require the services of a prompter. When our lovely guest blogger Adrianna Costa does her red carpet work she doesn't need a prompter. The only reason E! did this was so they could get some ratings. Lets see how good that decision is next time when the prompters don't work at all and the questions would be something like,

"And you are?"
"And you sing what?"
"Was that a hit?"
"Did you pay $20 to see me have sex with Ray-J or did you download it for free?"

One Tree Hill Is Still On?

I think I have my television programmed to skip the CW except for when Gossip Girl and 90210 are on. Honestly, I don't even think of the CW as a network except for those two shows. I think they just pretend they are for the rest of the week. If you have TiVo or a DVR and don't watch the commercials you probably don't know that One Tree Hill is still on the air. Sure, it comes on right after Gossip Girl, but if your television is like mine, it suddenly just switches to another channel. Or, if you record Gossip Girl are you also recording One Tree Hill? I don't think so. They are famous for some of the worst stunt casting in the history of stunt casting. They are the ones who gave K-Fed a shot when he was still cool. Well, ok. He was never cool, but it was when the Britney divorce was big and he actually thought they wanted him for his acting.

Well, now One Tree Hill has reached into the give a man a job bucket again and pulled out none other than Nick Lachey. In a serious stretch of his acting abilities, although he was married to Jessica Simpson, and, oh, never mind. Anyway, Nick is going to be portraying himself. And guess what? According to E!, he even got Vanessa Lemonjello a part and she gets to play herself. Not with herself. That would probably get ratings, but also probably get some complaint letters. Well, maybe not. I mean does anyone actually watch the show? The only reason I even know it exists is because I have had a really big crush on Moira Kelly since that whole Cutting Edge movie. I think they are up to about sequel number 14 in that thing now. I don't know how many combinations they can run through but the one they passed on became Blades Of Glory.

So, if you have nothing to do some night and decide you want to see Nick Lachey portray himself than by all means watch.

No More Octuplet Mom After This Post - Probably

I'm tired of hearing about her and you are probably tired of reading about her, but it seems there is all this new information about Nadya Suleman that comes out everyday. I do think it is time to give it a rest though. Basically for the past week or so the entire world has said pretty much nothing but negative things towards her and that has got to be fairly crushing to a person. Imagine the entire world thinking poorly of you and expressing it too.

Plus, some of her kids must go to school and they must be feeling an incredible pressure as well on them, so for now I think everyone should just stop and let her get on with her life and see if she can raise the kids and then we can always jump back in later and pile on.

But, before we let her escape, I think it is important to point out that while on the Today Show Nadya said she was not on welfare at all. While that might be technically true, it is also true that she gets $495 a month in food stamps and also gets three separate disability checks for three of her kids because they are disabled.

I don't really care so much about the whether it is welfare or not. What concerns me is the fate of the three disabled children. How badly are the disabled? What kinds of disabilities do they have which is obviously enough to trigger payments from the government for their well being. Is that money in fact being spent on them and to assure them a better quality of life as it is intended. I know many parents of disabled or special needs children and their care can be a full-time job and that is just one child. She has three right now and so to go out and have eight more children knowing that you will not be able to focus on the children you have right now and their needs seems wholly irresponsible.

This is what I hope for. I hope that she does get some magazine or some book deal or something which will pay her a few million dollars which if managed correctly would allow her to take care of the children in a quality environment and also to hire some additional help to assist her whether it be with childcare or cooking or cleaning or whatever.

She wants to go to school. Fine. Who is going to watch the kids while you are in school? Do you think a day care is going to want to watch all of your kids? You want to be a counselor and work full-time? Great. Does that mean you are going to make all of the older kids watch and take care of the younger kids? Did you ask them if that is what they wanted to do? Did you ask them if they wanted to give up extra curricular activities for the rest of their life so they could watch your other 8 kids? Did you ask them if they wanted to take care of your 3 disabled children? Do they have the skills necessary to do that?

Did you think of any of this before you decided that you just had to have another child. I know you didn't plan on 8 more, but you were planning on at least one and probably had a good idea it would be twins. That wouldn't have made this any better. It probably would have made it worse. At least with octuplets you will probably make some money. If it had been twins you would have just been a person in even worse shape financially with no immediate prospects of getting better.

OK, rant over. I will leave her alone for now to see how she does.

Maybe Owen Wilson Was Having A BBQ

I know there are a lot of people out there who just can't let go of the one person that drove them to allegedly attempt suicide. I mean what about the good times? There must have been some before their life came crashing down. Well, if you believe what People Magazine says, then Owen Wilson is one of those people. For some reason which defies any kind of logic other than the fact that Kate Hudson has no career and will do anything for a shot of publicity to sustain whatever inflated paychecks she has been receiving for essentially the same role in a string of box office bombs, Kate and Owen are back together.

Now, I hesitate to use the word couple because all they did was hang out at Owen's house for one day on Sunday and Kate's son was in tow. Hardly the romantic, lets get naked kind of ex sex thing you might expect. Of course if Kate Hudson is your ex and you have seen all the photos of every man she has dated since she dumped you like yesterday's fish in the trash, then ex sex might not be the first thing on your mind.

Maybe they just came over to borrow some sugar and they ended up staying all day and playing Scrabble. It rained most of the day Sunday so the beach probably didn't happen. Maybe Kate came over to read lines or do lines. Who knows. It is all speculation. But let me speculate that if they are getting back together, then it is going to end very badly for Owen. How could it not? Do you honestly see Kate marrying the guy? Hell no. So, she is going to dump him, and he is going to be right back where he was before. Maybe worse. Kick her to the curb Owen. Make her walk home.

What Exactly Are Rihanna's Injuries?

Depending on which site you read at any particular moment, the injuries Rihanna allegedly sustained at the hands or mouth of Chris Brown range from a scratch all the way to horrific. So, what exactly are her injuries, and aren't we all going to look like idiots if Chris Brown didn't actually do what everyone has convicted him of already?

According to TMZ, Rihanna was bitten on her arms and fingers and contusions on both sides of her face and that she accuses Chris of using his fists in the attack. They also said the policeman they spoke to had seen the photos and described the injuries as "horrific."

The Los Angeles Times would only say that Rihanna had some bruises and a scratch on her face.

E! Online doesn't talk about the injuries in their report, but does say that Rihanna canceled her well publicized and completely sold out Malaysia show which was scheduled for Friday. She is expected to make up that date at some point in the future.

US Weekly has gone with the Los Angeles Times version of injuries and also stated that Chris Brown had decided against performing at the NBA All Star game this weekend. He has also left the state of California on a private plane no less, although he is due back for an arraignment on March 5th.

MSNBC is going with the more sensationalized version of the injuries, and also announced that Wrigley had dropped Chris Brown's commercials for the chewing gum.

Oh, and on a side note. All of the sites use the quote from Rihanna's rep where the rep says, "Rihanna is well. Thanks for your concern and support." Umm, I don't think she is well and I think it does a disservice to try and give some politically correct answer in a situation like this. How about something that say she hurts like hell, is mad as hell and feels like crap, but thanks for your concern and support. When you say that she is well, it just kind of sounds pretentious and fake.

Michael Phelps Bong On eBay For $100K

There must not be a lot of bongs in Columbia, South Carolina. The owner of the bong Michael Phelps was caught using back in November was not even at the party. Apparently there must be a shortage of good head shops in the Columbia area and so the guy probably rents out the bong to friends.

Well, to also show he is an idiot, the owner of the bong tried to sell it on eBay. The but it now price was $100K. And he didn't even throw in a free dime bag. When it was discovered up on the site, the Richland County Sheriff's department decided to go pay him a visit. That visit landed him and 8 other people in jail for various drug possession and drug distribution charges.

In the raid on the house, the department confiscated the bong. Now it is probably sitting proudly in an evidence locker except at break time when everyone gathers around and debates whether they want to take a hit and who is going to raid the evidence locker for some of the good stuff. Might as well make it good if you are going to be sucking from the same thing Michael Phelps sucks from. Top it off with a bowl of Kellogg's and a Subway sandwich and you got yourself a party.

Saving Abel Guitarist Accused Of Sex With A Minor

On Friday, the founding member of Saving Abel and their lead guitarist Jason Null was arraigned along with Brandon Danger who is an employee of the group. The two were charged with forced oral copulation and forced oral copulation of a minor. Null, who is 33 and Danger who is 21 are accused of luring a 17 year old girl back to their tour bus by telling her they were going to put her in one of their music videos. Instead, when she got in the bus both men took turns forcing her to perform an oral sexual act.

Null's attorney says the charges are baseless and that Null would be exonerated. Null pleaded not guilty. Danger still has not entered his plea yet. I bet he cuts a deal. If you are a rocker and you can't find women to be with you consensually than you need to re-examine your abilities as a rockstar. If the two guys wanted oral that bad they should just have done each other.

It's Official; Miley's Apology Sucks - Miley's "apology" last week to Asian people just seems to have made them even more upset at Miley. I said last week that it didn't even sound like an apology, just her saying the word sorry and hoping that was enough. Well, executive director of the OCA George Wu said, "It's not a real apology. We're not backing down without a fuller apology."

And apparently George was not alone in his belief. The president of the Asian American Justice Centre, Karen Narasaki, said, "It sounds like Ms. Cyrus doesn’t understand the pain felt by those of us who grew up being taunted by insensitive people making fun of our ethnicity by making exactly these kinds of faces and gesture."

I also don't think Miley doesn't understand the pain felt by people forced to watch her show or listen to her talk for longer than two minutes.

Fore!! - Well actually two. That is now the number of children Tiger Woods has. His wife Elin gave birth to a son who they are naming Charlie which is an obvious breach of celebrity etiquette. I was hoping they actually would name their son Fore!!, but apparently they just decided to be normal. Although they did give him the middle name Axel. But they spell it like Axel Foley rather than Axl Rose.

Can I Have Fries With That? - Starbucks finally released the details of their value meal plan. Apparently they want to start competing with other breakfast places and are even willing to reduce their prices to do so. How would you like to start off your day with a Starbucks coffee and a bacon egg & cheese sandwich? At Starbucks it will cost you $4 and at McDonalds it will cost you $1.99. They might want to rethink this whole thing.

Say It Isn't So Peaches

After just six months, the marriage of Peaches Geldof and Max Drummey is ending. I just can't believe it. I really thought this was going to last forever. I mean two people meeting and then driving to Vegas and getting married just had 75th anniversary written all over it to me. I don't know where it could possibly have gone wrong.

I don't know if it was the fact that they didn't really see each other the past six months or that Peaches already had another guy she was engaged to when she got married. Of course it could be the guy that Peaches slept with this past week and then told everyone about. I mean that is probably the downfall of a lot of marriages.

I'm sure Bob Geldof is thrilled that the marriage is ending. I mean he probably doesn't even care she had an affair, but just wanted the whole marriage thing over. Now of course the divorce can wind its way through the courts and Peaches can start looking for husband #2. She is young. She can burn through a lot of husbands before she is done.

A Bee Gee Impregnates The Housekeeper

Wow, a gossip story about the Bee Gees. Who would have thunk it? It is like we all went to sleep and woke up 20 years ago. Oh, and it is a good one. You know it has to be good if we are bothering to talk about the Bee Gees. Specifically we are talking about Robin Gibb who just had a baby with his 33 year old housekeeper. Oh, the housekeeper lives with Robin and his wife. Oh, and Robin's wife gave her blessing to the sex, but apparently is furious that they are having a baby together and so kicked them both out.

Uh huh.

Got all that? Robin's wife is a Brahman which I thought was just a bull, but apparently is also a religion that says you can't have sex. Well, that sounds a great deal like my marriages but they didn't come up with the whole religion thing, they just said no.

So, Dwina Gibb told her husband he could have sex with whoever he wanted as long as he told her all about it. Sounds like Penthouse Forum, but that is for another story at another date. Anyway, she was thrilled that Robin was doing the housekeeper and the whites had never been whiter and the colors never been brighter.

Dwina, perhaps because she has abstained for the past 20 years or so, may have forgotten the fact that when two people have sex, sometimes the woman in the coupling gets what the medical community refers to as pregnant. Well Dwina hit the roof but didn't do anything about it until the housekeeper got to be about 7 months and Dwina finally figured out she wasn't just putting on some winter weight.

I don't know what Dwina expected, but to me this is kind of an overreaction. If you tell the world come sleep with my husband which she has done in the past, then don't be surprised if someone gets pregnant.

Jodie Sweetin's Drug Test Is Clean

Yes, I know. I'm fascinated with this divorce. Yes, you are probably sick of it. But come on, humor me a little. This morning Jodie and her soon to be ex were in court where both of their lawyers announced that each person tested clean. I love the way each attorney takes a silent jab at the other with these statements they made to the press after the hearing.

Jodie Sweetin's attorney said, "Her test is good, it's clear." Now, the implied suggestion in that is that Cody's test was not clean. Jodie's attorney knew by then that Cody's test was clean and she could have said both were clean, but instead chose to use the word her instead. Love it, but it gets better.

Cody's attorney then said, "Cody voluntarily took a hair follicle test and tested clean." Now the implication in that is that Jodie was ordered to take her test and that Cody out of the goodness of his heart took a test. The fact is that both had been ordered to by the court, but Cody voluntarily took the harder to beat hair follicle test while implying that if Jodie took one she would have failed.

I can't wait until this goes to trial. These two attorneys really know how to stick in the knives and twist.

Photos Of Octuplet House

Radar Online has managed to snag a video interview with the mother of Nadya Suleman who basically trashed he daughter and has no idea why in the heck her daughter wanted more kids because she can't take care of the ones she has. Radar has the video and many more photos of the home where the six kids will soon be joined by another eight. Seriously. The photos are disturbing and I can't imagine trying to fit another 8 kids inside the place.

Jamal Anderson Snorts Coke Off A Toilet Tank

Most of you probably have no idea who Jamal Anderson is. It doesn't really matter for the sake of why I am posting this item, but to satisfy the curiosity he was a running back for the Atlanta Falcons who had one great year. It was the year they went to the Super Bowl and he did a dance called the Dirty Bird when he scored. Since then he has lived off his NFL money and was and analyst for ESPN last season. You know? The company owned by Disney. The family company. The company that, oh never mind.

Anyway, Jamal and a male friend of his were at a club in Atlanta at about 3am Sunday morning when they decided to take a visit to a restroom stall together. No, this isn't going the way of a Russell Brand story. At least I don't think so. Apparently the restroom was not empty when the two began doing whatever it was they were doing and a fellow restroom user alerted an off duty cop who was at the club.

The off duty cop went into the restroom and saw Jamal and his companion snorting a white powder off the toilet tank in a bathroom stall. Look, I don't care who you are. You need to go to jail for a long time just for ingesting anything into your body after it has been sitting on a toilet tank in a public restroom in a bar. In a men's room. I get disgusted just thinking about what could have been on that tank. And they were snorting something off it into their bodies?

“The patron had heard what he thought was sniffing from inside the stall and told the off-duty officer. The officer went into the restroom, heard the same sniffing and peered over the stall door. He saw Jamal Anderson and Mark Hudson sniffing two lines of powdered cocaine off the back of the toilet.”

And to finish off the night they were going to smoke a joint. One was found in Anderson's pocket when they arrested him. I'm guessing the people over at Disney won't be inviting Jamal back anytime soon to his old job. Although, I have always wondered what made those employees at Disneyland so damn happy.

Is Tom Cruise Really Tameka Foster?

Since it looks as if Usher's wife and mother of his children Tameka Foster is going to be ok after some routine plastic surgery turned into a serious medical emergency, I think it is ok to speculate, and wonder. First of all, is there some kind of special plastic surgery they are performing in Brazil? First Naomi Campbell went down there for some bizarre procedure that had her hidden away for a month, then Tom Cruise goes and pays a visit to the Island of Dr. Moreau guy and now we have Tameka Foster getting some type of top secret surgery. Do they do something different there? Are they using some kind of cutting edge technology? Did all of the doctors stay in a Holiday Inn Express the night before?

As a devoted Los Angeles guy, I have to say that I am proud of our plastic surgeons and the work they do here. I think it is criminal that in this time of crisis so many celebrities are outsourcing their plastic surgery needs and not supporting the local economy, country clubs and private schools that so many of our esteemed plastic surgeons contribute their hard earned dollars to.

I understand the need for privacy sometimes and so could see some celebrity choosing a foreign locale if their nose needed to be reconstructed because of excessive coke use or something. But, how many paps are following Tameka Foster around? Would you even recognize her if you saw her on the street? Would you even care? And why did Usher have to fly down there with a neurosurgeon? What the hell kind of plastic surgery was this? Was it on this Dr. Moreau island place and is Tameka Foster actually Tom Cruise? Did they switch places? Does he go there and transform? Are they cloning people there? Does Tom Cruise want another 30 Tom Cruise's running around the world?

The Trouble Is Only Beginning For Chris Brown

By now all of you have probably heard the reports that Chris Brown was arrested last night for making a criminal threat. Now, the chances are good that charge will be upgraded to felony assault, but until then, he has only been charged with making a criminal threat. Now, if you believe the rumors, and that is all they are right now is just rumor and speculation and gossip. Hey, wait a second that's what we do here right? Anyway, the rumors are that somehow that about the same time Chris Brown was fleeing the scene of the alleged criminal threat, Rihanna was at the same time suffering from a broken jaw and shattered cheekbone. That is one hell of a coincidence.

Now, if this all turns out to be true and Chris Brown did this damage to Rihanna, how much longer do you think the career of Chris Brown will last? Oh sure, people forget things and the public can be forgiving, but it probably still won't be enough. If Chris Brown did do this, then he might as well have done it to Jay Z and to Timbaland and a lot of other people who owe that pair favors. Think they will forgive and forget? Think some other producer or guest artist will risk the wrath of those two? Yeah, I think Chris Brown better take whatever money he has and just go away for a few years. Give it about ten years as a matter of fact. I think that would be an appropriate cooling off period.

Oh, and Rihanna. You did the right thing by calling the cops. What? Yeah, I don't believe in coincidences like that.
