What I Hate


Halle Berry is three months pregnant, and if you read my post of August 20 you would know this. I'm glad Halle is pregnant and glad I was right, BUT with pregnancy there are so many rumors all of the time and frankly, 95% of the time they are B.S. that some publicist has hinted at to get some ink or the baby bump pics or whatever is the case.

So for me to come out and say something like "As exclusively revealed here first, Halle Berry is three months pregnant," is just so pretentious and full of crap. I hate when websites do it, because most of them including me are wrong about pregnancy 95% of the time and so to make it sound like everyone else got it wrong and this site got it right and blah blah blah, it's stupid and childish. You never see them come out and say, "I tried to guess right and was wrong," or "I can exclusively reveal I was wrong."

The other thing I hate is when some D- lister gets married and that Yahoo (no offense to the website) over at E! (not Ted C) comes out with a post which states he can exclusively reveal someone got married. Hell the people he says that about are so far down the ladder, they probably got married just so he would say he could exclusively reveal. When you are a celebrity and get married and can only get a one line message on one blog, that is pretty well down the list.

Just report what you know and eventually people will find you and know you have the goods or you don't. Don't be so insecure about your abilities that you need a pat on the back for every story you got right, and for the world to ignore every story you got wrong.

"I can exclusively reveal I was wrong" - I seriously laughed out loud at that one. I need to use that at work at some point.

Cindy Adams of the New York Post is always claiming to be the first one to have the 411. Personally, I don't care who blabs, so long as somebody blabs.

Jax, I'm with ya with the gossip sites, although I do make it a habit to check CDAN first...just in case I missed anything from the day before. And I did get the rumor of Halle being preg here first...along with Xtina.

I'm just happy for Halle. She's been wanting a baby and good man for some time. Looks like the sun is shining in her favor.

Enty, we love you but do us all a favor and reread this paragraph every time you want to reprint an article from the Enquirer or the Star or any of those yahoos {no offense to the website}.
