Billy Bob Needed Angelina To Call In To The Show

I know many of you have already seen the video of Billy Bob Thornton being a prick to a Canadian radio host this week. It is not just that he is an a-hole in the interview, but that he is a huge hypocrite at the same time. Billy Bob gets all ticked off at the host because the host mentioned Billy Bob's acting career when he apparently was only supposed to talk about music and how Billy Bob is a musician and not mention that it is a hobby, and blah blah blah.

Well at one point the host asks, "I'm happy to interview you guys as a band, but for the listeners I'm giving context to who you are. That's part of your trajectory isn't it?"

Billy Bob said, "Not really."

Oh really? Then why are you having two movies coming out this year? Are you making money as a musician? Hell no. If you don't want to be considered an actor, that's fine. Go do your Joaquin Phoenix thing, and only do music. Quit acting. Focus entirely on music. But you know what? He won't do that. He loves making money, having sex with as many women as possible and being treated like a star. Does he honestly think any radio station would be at all interested in interviewing a band that had sold as few records as Billy's band? Hell no. The only reason he is getting any interviews is because he is Billy Bob the actor. If he wants to be judged only on his music, then fine. Call himself Frank and release that same music and lets see how many radio stations want to talk to him. What an ass. If you haven't seen the video, it is worth your time.

Rihanna Does Something Nice

Sure, the cynic in me wanted to say that Rihanna spending time with a leukemia patient was all for public sympathy and to make people like her again and talk about her without referring to the beating she suffered. But, the problem is after reading the article, it is pretty obvious that she really cared for the little girl with whom she spent time. Plus, she got People Magazine to write the article so you know it is going to be even more sappy and emotional. I think they put their best team of sympathy writers on the article.

Last week, when Rihanna left Hawaii to go to New York, it was specifically for the purpose of seeing this girl for one hour. One hour. That is crazy to fly all that way for just one hour. Well one hour turned into two which turned into three and would have been even longer but the girl fell asleep. When you read the article you can see the good Rihanna can do for a lot of girls and women who look up to her. Hopefully she will take advantage of that.

Anna Faris Thinks Date Rape Is Funny **Observe & Report Spoilers***

I don't have a lot of desire to see the movie Observe And Report. I already watched the other mall cop movie and I also am on a bit of an anti-Seth Rogen kick right now. So, that combined with the fact that this is supposed to be darker and has Anna Faris as the lead in it, and it screams to me, just go ahead and wait to see it.

Now though it has even become more dark and scary. Apparently there is a fairly graphic scene in the movie where Anna Faris gets drunk on tequila and pills and passes out. Seth Rogen's character then proceeds to, by any definition of the word, rape her. Anna Faris is unconscious throughout the entire scene except for one brief moment when Set Rogen stops and she says, "Did I tell you to stop?" and then passes out again.

Apparently though Anna thinks that because she delivers the one line during the rape that it becomes funny. In an interview with NY Magazine who also talks about this entire scene in much more detail, Anna said, "It's like date rape — that's funny, right?"

I'm guessing there are going to be many, many women who are going to take issue with that statement by Anna. It is one thing to have a scene in a movie where a character is raped. It is quite another to have that character say that because she utters one line it suddenly makes it funny. She doesn't deny that it is date rape, just that it is funny. Maybe she should go speak to women who have been date raped, show them the scene and say, "hey, see? it's funny." I'm sure she will get lots of laughs.

Britney Spears Microphone Adventures #3

During the first few shows on this current Britney Spears tour, her microphone was left off completely. Either that or she didn't feel the need to say anything to anyone. First there was the infamous bit about certain parts of her anatomy which were hanging out which she shared with the arena. Then she told a Washington DC crowd, Merry Christmas a couple of weeks ago. This is becoming more and more fun to watch.

Everyone is making a big deal out of last night and her walking off the stage for about 48 minutes, and not the "brief pause" in the concert as reported by her own people. If your concert is only 90 minutes long, 48 minutes seems like more than a brief pause. I'm wondering how many cigarettes Britney smoked while she waited for the smoke to clear in Vancouver. I think she probably needs a little break. Instead it looks like her dad and her attorneys want to add lots more shows to the tour. They won't ask Britney of course. They will just tell her where to go and to follow their rules and to keep on making them money.

As long as I'm writing about Britney, Star Magazine says she and K-Fed are having sex all the time and that Kevin's girlfriend even caught them at it once. Of course other tabloids say Kevin and his girlfriend Victoria Prince are getting married. Honestly I don't believe the story. If he was having sex with Britney and Victoria, he wouldn't weight 700 pounds.

Britney certainly has c**ks on her mind though. Last night as she was walking off the stage, she said, "Don't smoke weed! Rock out with your c**ks out! Peace motherf**kers!" I think from now on they should leave her microphone on the entire time if she is going to come up with gems like that. In case you would like to read a review of the concert last night, the Vancouver Sun has a good one.

NY Daily News Blind Item

Which seemingly straight married actor conducts his man-to-man hanky-panky in the hangar of the Santa Monica Airport?

Today's Blind Items

This married B list actress from a longish running network drama has cheated on her celebrity husband three times in the past 12 days. Oh, and it isn't like this was one guy she cheated with three times. Noooo. It was three guys over the past 12 days. It is definitely an interesting way to run a marriage.

Random Photos Part One

Would you let this man
drive a race car? Now, granted this photo was taken during the day, while the one above was taken later that evening. I'm just saying I would be careful if I owned that car he is going to drive. Yes, that's Adrien Brody in the background.
Dustin Hoffman and Ryan Gosling together would normally have made the top of the photos, but the Keanu Reeves mugshot photo was too good to pass up.
Which leaves Rashida Jones in 3rd. I will need to make it up to her next time.
Billy Bragg - London
The latest photo of Ashlee Simpson and her son Brooklyn Junglebook who apparently never goes outside. He's like the bubble boy.
Speaking of bubble boys, at what age is it mandatory to not wear your baseball cap sideways? And, does Benji Madden have a Paris Hilton tattoo, and if so, is it permanently infected?
I'm going to give Russell Simmons the benefit of the doubt here and assume his head is too small for the cap so the cap moved slightly.
Then they went and egged Jennifer Aniston's house.
Duff McKagen needs to eat some food. Damn he is skinny.
Yes, that is Hugh Jackman on the helicopter.
And on a zip line
And taking photos with fans. And this concludes our program, a day with Hugh Jackman.
Henry Rollins always looks like he is ready for a fight. Look at that fist clench.
The lovely Illeana Douglas.
And the not so lovely Jamie Kennedy and Jennifer Love Hewitt. Even when Jamie poses for photos he looks like he whines.
Blast from the past rocker #1 is Kevin Cronin from REO Speedwagon.
And #2 is Tommy Shaw from Styx.
I doubt Jonathan Rhys Myers is listening to either band while playing basketball. Although after the game everyone did get together and sing Mr. Roboto.
I don't know if I have ever seen Diddy's ex, Kim Porter at an event alone.
Kelly Rutherford must be getting close to delivery right?
Lenny Kravitz in Paris.
While his daughter Zoe was in New York.
It has been a long time since I had Lake Bell in the photos.

Also there was Jason Segel who seems to be turning into a bigger mess as this press tour continues.
Rihanna's travel schedule - April 1- Hawaii. April 2 - New York - April 3- Barbados - April 8 - Los Angeles.
In the I used to be a host on MTV category, here is Riki Rachtman

Don't worry Sienna Miller wouldn't be interested in Peter Sarsgaard. He's not married to Maggie Gyllenhaal. He has a child though. So if he ever gets married she might want him, but for now he is safe. Plus, Maggie was there and I'm pretty sure she could kick Sienna's ass.
Victoria Beckham bringing back the 80's all by herself and all in one outfit.

Whatever Happened To Emily Longstreth?

I got an e-mail from poperah today wondering if I had any information on Emily Longstreth. I honestly have no idea and it appears neither does anyone on the internet despite lots and lots of searching. There are so many Google entries for her titled whatever happened to, that it is a mystery that needs to be solved. Emily played the girlfriend of Kevin Bacon's character in The Big Picture. She also starred alongside a very young Brad Pitt and Juliette Lewis in the made for tv movie, Too Young To Die. She even was in Pretty In Pink and was in Private Resort with Johnny Depp. She is like her very own version of six degrees of separation game.

The one rumor the reader had found about Emily and her whereabouts was that Emily had turned to stripping and escorting and had died two years ago.

This was an actress who appeared to have it all going for her and then just fell off the earth in 1994. So, I leave to all of you sleuthing readers to skip working the rest of the day and see if you can find out what happened to her.
