Bret Michaels & Heidi Montag Are Not Dead
I couldn't decide what story I thought was more ridiculous this weekend. For much of the weekend I really thought the whole Heidi Montag going to the hospital was the most ridiculous, but then last night I started seeing all these headlines that screamed out, Bret Michaels Injured At The Tony Awards!!! Huge banner headlines like the guy was on life support or something. Everywhere you looked the top story was Bret getting injured. Umm, the guy hit his face on a wall or some scenery and didn't even break a nose or any bone and went out to a bunch of parties last night. When I watched the video below I was more concerned with the tornado watch you can see in the corner of the screen. Bret Michaels strutting and hitting his face just doesn't seem to reach the same level of concern.
Do you know how many times I run into crap everyday at home and work? You don't see huge banner headlines when that happens. When you saw all the headlines and saw Bret Michaels was injured you thought it was serious didn't you? That is the problem sometimes with gossip. People always want to create some drama and so will make something out of literally nothing.
Speaking of nothing, the whole Heidi and Spencer thing made me sick. If I am NBC I just pull this whole damn thing off the air. I write a check to the charities involved for $1M and just throw on old reruns of Alf. Why the hell not? People would watch it out of curiosity and everyone in Ben Silverman's office could stop popping Tums every few seconds.
The problem with this show is: they picked Speidi; are in Costa Rica; ITV and NBC are not communicating well; and every contestant and staffer has a cell phone. So, then you have people calling their people who are calling TMZ who reports something and the gets a statement from NBC contradicting something, but ITV who are the producers have a different statement and all it really comes down to is the fact that Heidi and Spencer should be dropped off 120 miles off the coast of Costa Rica on Isla Nublar and let them fend for themselves. The two of them have basically destroyed the entire summer schedule of a network. It is like one of those movies where some hapless person pulls a plug or does something wrong, and you feel sorry for them. Not here. Here I would bring out the full power and might of GE and crush Speidi like bugs.

The whole thing with Speidi has me wondering: are we all just being punked, or is this what TV has really come to?
What in the hell was Bret doing at the Tony Awards anyway?
i caved. they had a marathon on muchmoremusic this weekend and i watched about an hour.
an HOUR TOO LONG. i just kept thinking "my god, how embarassing for Lou Diamond Phillips."
wrong.
Don't you think NBC is actually eating all this publicity up? I know they have to pretend to be offended, but since when has their summer schedule gotten this much attention?
I would seriously watch Alf before watching the realicrap show.
"...just throw on old reruns of Alf" - HA! I would pay NBC to do that. I watched...in fast-forward mode...the Thursday episode of that piece of crap they call a tv show and didn't know whether to laugh or cry. "Arrested Development" couldn't find an audience but somehow this is on my tv set? Ugh. I'm sick of Speidi, and have lost a ton of respect for NBC.
"crush Speidi like bugs" - in a perfect world, sigh.
Carrie - I KNOW!
From the status updates of some of my FB friends, I can see that there ARE people who take the Speidi crap for real. They get all concerned about it, too. It's ridiculous.
AnonMom - that's really scary.
Why was Poison preforming at the Tony Awards?
The dinosaurs on Isla Nublar would just puke up Speidi as indigestible, or better yet, they'd come out the dino's other end. Now, I'd watch THAT.
Old reruns of Alf! LOL!
That footage of Michaels is the funniest I've seen on TV since Sue Simmons said "Fuck!"
There is a musical on Broadway right now called "rock of ages" and it has all these poodle hits from the 80's in it. That's why Bret performed it at the Tony awards with the cast.
That video is really f*cking funny if you ask me.
LOL@bret. This is the first time I see the video and I thought it was hilarious LOL. That guy is such an idiot.
Heidi and her gay guy are so stupid and ridiculous.
ok, i broke down and watched this one night last week. nothing about it looks real to me. they're just in some little clearing lying on cots? really? they didn't appear to DO anything. it looks phony and staged and i can't believe NBC planned their whole schedule around this botched abortion of a show.
of course, they also gave up on prime time and installed jay leno, so why am i surprised?
turns out Bret really did get hurt, although not decapitated like some people were mentioning...

long link, i know, but i saw that story on yahoo. suffered a fractured nose and a busted lip...i guess a good enough reason for him to get more plastic surgery because, you know, it was medically necessary
oh, and i hate speidi, never could stand the hills and i make fun of all my friends who "love" that show and think it's real. gag me.
I dont want to see the show, but I will be happy to read whatever is rapported from there by Enty or you guys! :)

So, I watched this clip a few times because BM looks like such a douche, but at the end of the clip there`s a chick singing. What the hell is she singing cuz it`s stuck in my head. In my mind I`m singing `Wild hookin, wild hookin!`
"...Heidi and Spencer should be dropped off 120 miles off the coast of Costa Rica on Isla Nublar and let them fend for themselves."
Wasn't Isla Nublar the site of Jurassic Park in the movies?
Just a little wishful thinking.
Now if he hadn't spent so much time soaking up the applause (like the audience weren't just being polite), he wouldn't have been whacked. Idiot should have done it like in rehearsals.
And it's 'wild again, beguiled again' Tallywacker. From Bewitched Bothered and Bewildered.
Way late here...
Looks like Stockard Channing singing at the end of the clip.
I also caved and watched last night's airing of "I'm A celebrity..." (a RARE occasion of network-TV watching for our household) and gotta say--I was enthralled.
Literally could not tear myself away.
The prayer sh*t alone had us in tears (of laughter, not rapture...).
Lou is like the wise sage, Papa Smurf of the group.
Not the most dynamic group overall, and Janice better stick around a while or else there will be no drama.
Can't have the live equivalent of Total Drama Island without any drama!
gay tallywacker; it's Stockard Channing singing "Bewitched" from "Pal Joey". The words are "I'm wild again, beguiled again, a simpering, wimpering child again"....*L*
Thank you all!
