Tastes Like Clooney


I think it is bad enough there is a cologne using Diddily Piddily's breath as its inspiration. Now though comes something even worse. I know, I know, it's hard to believe there could be anything worse than an entire world of people walking around smelling like Sean Combs' breath.

But, thanks to the people over at PETA, there may in fact be something worse. It seems that PETA got their hands on a gym towel that George Clooney perspired all over. Instead of putting it into the washing machine, PETA sent a letter to George asking if it would be ok for them to use his perspiration in a tofu recipe.

According to Ingrid Newkirk, who is the President of PETA, turning sweat into gravy is just as easy as making artificial chicken flavoring for gravy. Mmmmm. Yum.

Ingrid thinks it would be the greatest idea ever and imagined parties attended by people all across the world who would want to sample CloFu. Yeah, nothing like the taste of some sweat mixed with some bean curd. "Would you like your sweat on the side sir?"

George however is not interested and responded to PETA's offer by stating, "As a mammal, I'm offended."

This may all be a joke. Is it possible to do something like that? Anyway, if it isn't a big joke, then I don't think it will be long before we see Pamela Anderson contributing some fluids from her body so everyone can try some PamFu.

I Just Don't Care


All morning I have been trying to get excited writing about John Mayer and Jennifer Aniston breaking up again, but I'm not. I honestly just don't care whether they are together or not. I didn't care when they got together the first time, nor when they broke up the first time. I didn't care when they got back together. The only time I had an inkling of caring was when they went to the Academy Awards together. I thought that was kind of nice. It didn't make me want to post about it, but it was kind of nice.

I'm tired of every article or interview ever written about Jen asking her about her feelings for Brad and Angelina and that whole thing. I would say give it a rest, but apparently, the magazines are being encouraged to ask those questions because then it generates more press for Jennifer and the magazines get more sales so it is a win/win.

In an ideal world I just wish Brangelina and Jennifer would just go away and let us move on to new people and new rumors. It is just a never ending cycle with these three because they all have very good people working for them who know how to manipulate the press and to say things sure to generate more publicity.

Today I posted the nanny story because it was interesting and if Jennifer Aniston was caught rubbing the back of her pool boy, I would think that is pretty interesting as well. Unfortunately though, what we get day after day is just fluff, and not even good fluff.

I wish that John and Jen would stay together because then all we would have to read about are marriage and pregnancy rumors. Instead, now we will have to go through the who is she dating game for months on end. I hate it.

I think that is why I love writing about lesser known celebrities. It seems like their stories are more interesting, plus, we have not heard about them everyday for the last four years.

Did you realize that Mr. & Mrs. Smith came out four years ago? For the last four years, I doubt there has been a week or even three or four days where Jen, Brad or Angelina has not been mentioned in a magazine or tabloid. I would also guess that one of the three has been has been on a cover of a magazine at least once a month for the past 48 months. It's too much. No more please.

Pete Doherty Sold Drugs To The Strokes


Well, I'm sure The Strokes will be happy to know that Pete Doherty threw them under a bus. I doubt it will come as a huge shock to anyone that The Strokes may have dabbled with some drugs, but to actually come out and say you sold them the drugs, and did it more than once, says a little bit about how Pete must be needing some money. Hopefully at some point his money shortage will cause him to write a tell all book about his time with Kate Moss. That is what I want to read. Hell, just make it about his life. Start with when he became a gay escort and just go from there.

In an interview with ShortList Magazine, Pete says, "I used to sell a few little things on the side, you know? The Strokes were on their first tour, and were like just a few American lads in London looking for a good time. They met a friend of mine, who said I could get them a few bits and bobs. I think I sold them a load of acid, they gave me tickets to their gig, I got them some more acid and it went from there.”

The last part about it went from there is really interesting. Does he mean it went from there and he ended up selling them more drugs or different drugs, or that his career as drug dealer to visiting bands took off after that?

I'm glad he has a career after music. I can't wait to see if The Strokes respond to this and if Pete has any additional details to share about who was with The Strokes as guests at that time and if they also shared in the acid.

Right Said Fred Are Back And Hopefully Have New Shirts


You know you sing, "I'm Too Sexy," when no one else is around. Well, I'm sure that you have been spending the last 18 years waiting for Right Said Fred to make a comeback so you can add to your guilty pleasures and just to see, if in fact, they are still too sexy for their shirts. Apparently the brothers are in LA right now recording a video for their new song, "I'm A Celebrity."

Yes, I'm sure it is something they wish they were, but do you think people still notice them wherever they go? If I compiled a list of celebrities, I'm not sure I would choose to include the writers of a one hit wonder song, no matter how long its staying power.

In an interview they did with Radar, the brothers said, they don't really like artists such as Amy Winehouse and Duffy because, "They're big with kids who aren't really old enough to realize how derivative they are."

Umm, wow. This coming from the guys who made popular the phrase, "I shake my little touche on the catwalk."

The video below is their attempt back in 2007 to re-release their song with a new video.

It Pays To Know Amy Winehouse Which Sucks For Nicole Richie


According to The Mirror, Amy Winehouse's 12 year old goddaughter is getting paid $15,000 to walk the runway at Liverpool's Fashion Week in the hopes that her attendance will get Amy Winehouse to show up. While Amy Winehouse showing up will probably bring a lot of publicity, the thought of Amy Wienhouse drunk and with access to a runway makes me kind of scared for everyone else in attendance.

Apparently though, this payment to 12 year old Dionne Bromfield is more than the organizers were willing to pay Nicole Richie to show up and walk the runway. As a result, Nicole has pulled out of the event. Yeah, it must suck to know that a 12 year old who may or may not bring someone famous to the show is worth more than the fame Nicole Richie would bring to the show.

I'm sure that if Nicole was offered a spot in the show and has indeed pulled out, her pregnancy will be used as the excuse why she had to suddenly pull out of the event.

Marcia Cross Has Made Her Husband Vanish


Has anyone noticed that since the announcement was made in January about Marcia Cross' husband Tom Mahoney having cancer that he has not really been seen in public at all.

My search was not really exhaustive, but the last time I can find a photo of them together from an event or out in public together was in October of last year at a pumpkin patch.

It seems that Marcia has been doing a lot of events, and a lot of press completely on her own now, and the spin of all the press is about how she spends so much time with her kids. There is not even a mention of Tom in the two most recent interviews she has given, despite the fact they were all about kids and family how her children spend each day.

Instead of saying things like they love to play with their dad or do this with mom and dad, the entire interview spoke about how they love to play with Marcia and how she takes them everywhere and there was not even one hint of a mention of Tom.

When you read the interviews it is as if she is a single mom. I just find it odd that there is not one mention of Tom or how he helps with the kids or anything. It is all about her. Now, I'm wondering if this is because his cancer has progressed to the point where he can't do anything and she doesn't want anyone to know, or if she and Tom have split and she doesn't want anyone to know.

Either way, there is something going on here that is being hidden.

Here is the interview from Tuesday. Don't be fooled by People's mention of Tom. He wasn't there. They just used the term stepping away for some odd reason.

This is an interview with Celebrity Baby Blog she did this week. Notice it is all about her, her, her for several thousand words, and then at the very end in the last sentence she says, "dad's been with them." That's it.
