Quick Hits


Idol Love - If you have always wanted to date David Cook, and really, who among us has not, then now is your chance. He and Kimberly Caldwell have split. Apparently the split was initiated by Kimberly who broke up with David right before the holidays. Merry Christmas David!!!

Virgin Bid - Remember the story I ran a few months back about the woman auctioning off her virginity? Yeah, her. Natalie Dylan. Yeah, the one who has a sister who works as a hooker in Nevada. She still has not finished accepting bids and probably won't finish accepting bids until she can't get another ounce of publicity from this thing. The bids are now up to $4M, to which I say, just give it to me, I will throw on a wig, and believe me I will keep it a secret. She made the news again today because she said the only celebrity she would let touch her is Kim Kardashian. Yeah. I can see why. They basically both have made their fame by getting paid for sex. Yes, Kim's was in a video, but she made money off it, therefore she made money for having sex.

Ray J- Speaking of getting paid for sex. Kim's old partner has his own VH-1 show now where people will compete to be his whatever. I mean it isn't the Bachelor or anything so they won't be getting married. I guess everyone just competes at seeing how long they can stay on the show and how much they can charge clubs later to make an appearance. Word of advice to the ladies. If Ray says he won't show the video to anyone I really wouldn't advise you to make that bet.

Iron Man News - Emily Blunt is about to be cast as Black Widow in Iron Man 2. Hey, I think she is a great choice. My only request during all of this is a plea to the writers to somehow find a way to kill off Gwyneth Paltrow. Please.

BAFTA's - Slumdog Millionaire and The Curious Case Of Benjamin Button each received 11 nominations. Kate Winslet has a pretty decent shot at winning a Best Actress BAFTA since she is nominated for two different roles. She is also up for Best Actor, Best Supporting Actress, and Best Picture. Basically they have decided to go ahead and call the BAFTA's the Winslet's from now on.

Which celeb lost his virginity on tour and then dumped the lucky lady on his co-star to see the girl got home safely?

WD - Groupidity Episode Three

So when we were trying to create a best friend for David, we thought it would be funny if he was the complete antithesis of David. An emotional musical hippie who clearly didn't care about money. When we hired the actor to play the part and found out that he could play the guitar, we asked him if he'd play for the part. Not only was he so excited to play for the part, but he WROTE two hilarious songs for it. So listen to the lyrics. They are hand crafted for the show.

Here is the link to the Chris Cornell music video I stunt coordinated and I am the 1940's woman in the video installation!

"Oprah Got Me Started On Cocaine"


You know just when I thought this day was going to be so slow that I was actually going to have to talk about Amanda Bynes and whether she did or did not break up with that dude from The Hills who she was going out with for about two seconds, along comes this lovely story to make me happy I am writing today.

It is exactly what I expect from a tell-all book. It features a guy who really has nothing going for him except for the fact he used to date Oprah and a publisher who said, "what the hell, it will probably sell a few copies."

The man's name is Randolph Cook. Now Randolph has been in and out of Oprah's life since they dated back in 1985. He then sued her in 1997 when he tried to write this book that is now published, because publishing companies he alleged were scared of Oprah. They are probably still scared of Oprah, because, well she is Oprah, but he got it published this time. Now, for the most part his book is really boring, but people will go out and buy it based on this excerpt alone.

“Oprah made a “rock” of cocaine and baking soda in the tube and heated it, a method known as freebasing.

“[Oprah] then put the lit torch on the rock, inhaled and held the smoke in her lungs for a long time. When she finally exhaled, she began to shake violently as she put the pipe down, she had trouble catching her breath and her eyes got big as saucers.”

We smoked at least a couple of times a week. Sometimes we would smoke up until her limo was waiting to take her to the studio to perform her show…”

Now, Oprah in the past admitted to taking coke, but she said it was when she was a news anchor and not when she was hosting her own show. She said at that time that she was hooked on the drug by a guy she was dating and the only reason she did it was because she was hooked on the guy.

Well according to Randolph, he is not the guy Oprah was referring to, and he had never used coke until he met Oprah, and that she was the one who got him started on coke.

The one thing I tried not to read were his accounts of the sex he and Oprah had. Yeah, I didn't really need to read that. If you want to read more of the book or the website of the guy, click here.

Jodie Sweetin Says She Only Had One Slip


The Jodie Sweetin divorce drama could get really interesting at the next court hearing in a few weeks. She and her soon to be ex are due back in court, and prior to them coming back to court they both have been ordered to be drug tested. OK, nothing new in that, I just thought I would catch everyone up as to where we stand.

In an attempt to make herself look good, and because she has a publicist, Jodie took to the pages of Kneepads Magazine to basically say that she is a wonderful human being and great mom to her daughter.

"There are a lot of things being said about my using that are not going on right now. I want to make it known that I am absolutely, 100 percent sober."

I actually have no doubts that she is 100% sober. The key part of the phrase though is "right now." Jodie says that she only had one slip back in the summer and that it was just a few glasses of wine...with dinner. She says that's it. Nothing else.

See, this is where this court case is going to get interesting. The last time she and her ex were in court, her ex alleged that she had been basically not sober for the entire time since their daughter had been born and had alleged Jodie was using way more than just wine. It will be interesting to see if any of the allegations can be proved, and then what Jodie will have to say. I guess if she is caught in a lie she could do another People cover story about how she is sorry and how now she is getting her life back on track.

Now, this is not in any way to suggest that I am on her ex's side. I actually think he is pretty much a scumbag who lived off his wife's earnings and borrowed money from her parents because he was too lazy to work. I doubt if he even has a job right now. He is probably still living in their soon to be foreclosed house for free.

I just think it probably would have been best for Jodie to stay silent on the entire thing until everything is over and then she can say whatever the hell she wants to.

Kendra Wilkinson Spills - A Little


In an interview with US Weekly, Kendra admitted that although she and Hugh Hefner were "intimate" she had to go have sex every now and again just to feel human. So, then am I to deduce from that statement that the intimate time she and Hef had together was not sex? It is hard to tell. She says that she was never really alone with Hef and there were no solo dates so I am afraid to ask what exactly this intimacy was.

She did say that Bridget Marquardt confided that she never cheated on Hef once during the entire time. Kendra was amazed Bridget could go that long without sex. So, again, I'm guessing that intimacy didn't involve sex.

In fact, Kendra says that most of the time the only time she would even see Hef is if she saw him in passing when he was walking the halls of the Mansion. That does not seem like the way to have a successful relationship so I'm not surprised the pair broke up.

The one thing I found interesting was that Kendra said she hated getting the $1,000 a week allowance that all of the girlfriends got.

"I hate putting my hand out, but we couldn't have jobs other than getting appearance fees."

Didn't she get paid though for being on the show? Plus, she did a bunch of appearances so I'm guessing she didn't have too big of a problem taking the money.

Now that she is getting married, Kendra says she is totally against the lifestyle Hef has and that having three girlfriends is wrong. Umm, she wasn't saying that while she was getting paid. It is only now when she isn't getting paid that she thinks its wrong? If she is so against it, then why didn't she walk away a whole lot sooner? You know, before the entire world watched her make a bunch of money based on the fact she was one of three girlfriends? That seems like a pretty cheap shot to take at Hef. If she felt so strongly against it, she should have said something previously. All she did by her actions was say that it is ok. Maybe she just didn't want her new husband to be getting any ideas.

"Just Wait Until Your Dad Gets Home"


Apparently Amy Winehouse has not been telling the whole truth, and nothing but the truth when she has given interviews to various UK tabloids. It turns out that Amy has been doing drugs almost everyday while on her vacation. And now, Josh Bowman her rugby playing companion has flown back home to get, one can only hope is a fairly massive injection of penicillin and a hefty paycheck from a tabloid for his inside knowledge. Don't even go there. That is not the inside knowledge to which I am referring.

Anyway, in addition to the drug use, according to The Sun, Amy has been notified that she will not be served any drinks at the resort. Does that stop her from getting hammered every day? Nope. She just steals drinks from hotel guests and begs them to give her drinks. Since she is staying at an all inclusive resort, drinks are free. Despite this though, the guests do not particularly care for having their drinks stolen or being preyed upon by a woman every five seconds asking them for another drink.

When you pay $350 a night you just want some sun and fun and not have to worry about being confronted by a drunk asking someone to fill up their flask. Hey, wait a second that sounds like my assistant's job.

Things have got so bad that a tabloid has paid Amy's dad to fly down to St. Lucia just so they can create some more drama and more photos. I'm not sure why the resort doesn't kick Amy out. The only explanation that makes sense is that they have determined that free worldwide publicity everyday plus 30 hotel rooms filled with tabloid writers is worth the craziness of one very troubled singer.
