This Isn't Really News But....

This isn't really news, but I couldn't resist! Paris Hilton and Benji Madden made their debut as a couple this week at Fred Segal in Los Angeles. I just think it's so corny that Paris is dating Nicole Richie's baby-daddy's twin brother. I mean, really. Doesn't Benji know that Paris is a walking STD? I thought he had more sense than that! LOL. That's the thing about Hollyweird... They'll always prove you WRONG! I just hope that Paris doesn't plan on getting preggers with him... That would be BEYOND my corny barrier. I think my head would explode.

Mama Britney's BACK!

Since January 3rd, Ms. Spears has not seen her children. This all ended yesterday as ex-hubby K-Fed allowed Britney access to her boys under the supervision of her father and her psychiatrist. This is a happy twist to a bitter custody battle that Kevin and Britney have been going through since early last year. The troubled pop-star lost custody of her boys completely at the start of this year, but Kevin is starting to feel some pity towards her. I applaud him for being an understanding parent, and wanting his kids to see their mother. I'm sure they missed her despite her antics. The visit was coordinated by Kevin and his lawyers in an attempt to give Brit a fresh start with the boys. Good luck to all of them!

Oh Yes.....It's True!

Brangelina debuted the baby bump yesterday at the Independent Spirit Awards in Santa Monica, CA. I like how she doesn't need a publicist, or a mega-concert or an explosive article to make a big to-do out of the whole thing. Here's the bump-- that's all you need to know! I admire these two as a couple. So humble, so active, so giving, so beautiful! I am happy for the both of them!

It's a BOY.... And a GIRL!!!!

Jennifer Lopez gave birth to twins this morning at Long Island University Hospital in New York. Her baby girl was born first at 5 pounds 7 ounces, and the boy followed shortly after at 6 pounds. The happy couple are said to be "over the moon". This is the first birth for Jennifer, 39, and this is the third and fourth children for Marc Anthony, 38. I wish them both well in this joyous time. We all know that those 2 rugrats are going to be the most spoiled and conceited on the planet, and it's FABULOUS! I'm not hating one little bit! It is reported that the couple could charge upwards of 6 million for the first pictures of the little ones. Just born, and already they're making millions! Ahhhhh Hollyweird.... What a place!

Hoppin' da Broom!

Sources claim that Janet Jackson was seen this week in Badgley Mischka looking at samples of wedding dresses for her up-coming nuptuals with long-ime boyfriend Jermain Dupri. If this is true this will be the third mistake... I mean marriage for Janet. People have been speculating for years that the two would get hitched, but I never thought she would really do it. But you know what? I'm happy for her. I mean, who needs good looks, nice teeth, height and hair when you've got.... Wait a minute.... What does JD have? Hmmmmmmm? Ouch! That was a little mean, even for me! I'm sure he has a great...... Heart! Well, if this rumor is true, I want to congratulate the happy couple. Love is grand!

He's Baaaaaaaaaack!

I guess money talks.... Like a racist! According to several media outlets, "Dog the Bounty Hunter" will be put back on the air on A&E. After a recorded racially-charged conversation by Dog was made public late last year, the station suspended production of the show. During this suspension, Dog went around town to every black famous person he knows apologizing, shucking & jiving and begging. Eventually A&E said they were "pleased with his progress", and are ready to put the show back on the air...

The truth of the matter is that Dog's show brings in the highest ratings for that channel, and he's basically a cash cow. They need him and therefor they are putting him back on the air. There was no amount of shucking & jiving in the world that could have gotten Isiah Washington his job on Grey's Anatomy back, so I'm really not buying this 'sympathy' story.... I can't say I'm surprised though. You know they say money talks, and that dirty, dirty cash probably had a LOT to say!

Obama on a Ten-Win HOT STREAK!!!!

Well people, we are making history this year. We truly are. Unless you have been living under a rock for the past 6 months or so, then you know that the deomcratic race for presidential candidate has been a heated, dramatic, mud-slinging, back-talking, jive-making fight to the finish. We are in the final stretch, and I must say both Clinton and Obama have put up a strong and entertaining fight. Initially I was torn, but moe recently Clinton has been really turning me off with her negative campaigning tactics. Besides that, when you look at her agenda there is not much that differs between her and say, John McCain. She's a little too conservative for my liking. I believe this country needs a fresh-faced, bold and brave liberal who will change the global opinion of our nation for good! I believe that Obama is that man, and apparently a lot of people agree with me.

Most recently, Obama won delegates in Hawaii, South Carolina and Wisconsin. The only way Clinton can pull this off is if she performs nothing short of a miracle in Texas; which I highly doubt. Her camp has gone out of their way to take many things that have been said by Obama out of context, but Barack always seems to take it in stride. Most recently, Clinton attacked Michelle Obama for a speech she gave this weekend when she claimed, "Now is the first time in my adult life that I can stand up and say I am truly proud of my nation". You know Hillary jumped all over that one. But truly as a black woman, I understand where Michelle was coming from. Clinton claims she's always been proud of this nation... So I guess when blacks were hanging from trees like some kind of strange fruit that was pride. Amadou Diallo? Pride. Rodney King? Pride. The Jena 6? Pride. Iraqi War? Pride. Wooooooooow, what a world we live in. Please oh please Lord grant Obama the strength and ability to make it to that finish line. He is a change we can believe in!!!!

The Road to Recovery

I know I've been gone for a while.... DID YA MISS ME???? Now that vacation is over, let's get right down to it. Our girl britney seems to be making some big changes for the better. Although she has not sen or spoken to her two young sons since January 3rd, she is hoping to regain joint custody again soon.

After an intervention from her parents nearly a month ago, and a 2 week stint at a hospital psych ward, it looks like Britney is recovering. Not only is her weave on-point, but she has healed the torn relationship between her and her formerly-estranged parents. her father has taken legal control of her estate and her money. He has hired a bodyguard who is with her 24-7, and he also drives her wherever she needs to go. Besides Adnan, all other bad influences (aka Osama Lutfi) have been banned from her life. She looks happier and healthier. She has been working on dance routines for her new video, and she has evenb taught some dance classes! It looks like all might end well for this fallen pop-star.... Only time will tell!

Bright Beginning....Tragic Ending...

How is my faithful flock? I know I've been gone for some time, and unfortunately I come bearing sad news. Young bright star Heath Ledger (10 Things I Hate About You, Brokeback Mountain) was found dead this afternoon in his Greenwich Village apartment. He was found at 3:30 this afternoon by his masseuse after she was let in by the maid. after many attempts to shake him without response, they called the paramedics. They performed cpr to no avail; he was dead on the scene... There was a bottle of over-the-counter sleeping pills found by his bedside. Heath was only 28 years old.



The troubled actor had concealed a battle with drugs for many years, and never sought treatment, according to close friends. He leaves behind a 2 year old daughter named Matilda that he had with actress Michelle Williams (Dawson's Creek, Brokeback Mountain). Ledger stars in this years new Batman film playing the tortured, schizophrenic and devious character of the JOKER. During the filming, he complained about not being able to sleep, and being tortured by demons that were accentuated by the themes of the film. How tragic! I always thought he was quite handsome, and a great actor. I am deeply saddened by this news.... Below is the last picture taken of Ledger on Saturday night during his performance in London on: "The Imaginarium of Doctor Parnassus."

Sad, tragic, unbearable, cliche, heart-wrenching, the worst. Thank You.

A change.......for the better?????

Since Amy's last breakdown, there have been reports all over the media that she has made an attempt to clean up her act because U.S immigration will not let Amy enter the U.S to attend the Grammy's unless her drug test comes out clean. Her band and crew are eager to go-- this is HUGE for them, so she really needs to get it together. She was recently seen sporting a new blonde look with a scarf tied around most of it...

I now see why. My goodness, what a mess!!! She needs to holler at Paris Hilton for some dreamweaver extensions--STAT! Wooooow. As they say on crunk & Disorderly-- Jesus, PLEASE take the wheel!

Hollywood Welcomes 2 new mommies!

Congratulations are in order!!!! (I think?)

This weekend two of tabloids most infamous femme fatales brought in bundles of joy! Both Nicole Richie and Christina Aguillera checked into Ceder Sinai medical center in Los Angeles. They both gave birth yesterday. Nicole had a healthy baby girl named: Harlow Winter Kate Madden, and Christina's little bundle of joy is named: Max Liron Bratman.... Max Liron means: Greatest song in Hebrew.... How sweet!

I'm happy for Nicole because she gained weight, and seems to have straightened out, but I'm still iffy about the fact that she's not married-- I guess in 2008 it's not THAT serious-- so whatever, congrats!

And I'm happy for Christina too-- now her family is complete, and she has totally cleaned up her image.... good for them!

Unfitney Spears.... When will it end?

Last night at 11pm, Britney was taking to Cedar-Sinai hospital in LA for a mental evaluation. This followed a 3 hour stand-off that Britney had between K-Fed's bodyguard and herself. She was holding her kids hostage, and refused to give them back to K-Fed although she was legally required to do it. The stand off started at 8pm and didn't end until 11pm. Police called an ambulance when they noticed she was intoxicated by an unknown substance.... Woooooooow Brit. Eveyrtime I think it can't get worse... Then BAM! It does. This lady needs help. SERIOUS help before we have another Anna-Nicole on our hands (God forbid)....


The Spears clan has come to be quite nutty. First Brit's antics, then Jamie-Lynn's teen pregnancy, wow! This just goes to show that behind the glitz and glamour lies real people, with real problems who are not above any one of us. Our culture worships celebrities so much lke their demi-gods, and their not. Don't worry America, celebs are fuck-ups just like us! Hahahahahahahaha!

Yay Obama! Booooo Huckabee!

The Iowa primaries are in folks! And the results ain't bad.... Ain't bad at all.... So far, Obama leads with 38% of the Iowa vote. John Edwards came in second, and Hilary trailed at third.... Hmmmmmm verrrrry interesting! On the red side, Huckabee claimed the Iowa vote... I presonally think he's an idiot-- but all the better for the big elections! The dems should be a shoe-in!
