Katie No More

Sunday, April 30th, 2006

As I right this, I am sitting on a bench in front of my apartment, enjoying this beautiful weather. And away we go.

Gay Icon Elizabeth Taylor is facing death after her heart began to fail. The actress is confined to her bedroom and her funeral is already being planned. Is anybody lucky enough to have her in the death pool? Because I think if anyone does, they are about to cash in big time.

Daniel Baldwin was arrested this past week for drug possession. As the story goes, the 45-year-old star - a member of the famous Baldwin family - was arrested on April 22, after police received a complaint about loud noise coming from a room at a motel in Santa Monica, California. When the cops busted in, they saw cocaine in the hotel room, and Baldwin is scheduled to appear in court on May 22.

The almighty Ryan Seacrest was interviewed by People Magazine this week. In the interview, Seacrest said that after he takes a shower, he turns off the water, rubs himself in baby oil, turns on the cold water for 30 seconds and then towel-dries. Am I the only one who uses baby oil for different reasons? Oh I kid.

Katie Holmes is no longer. The proud mom will now be forever known as Kate. According to Tom and Katie have decided that Katie will now be known as “Kate!” Tom says that Katie is a young girls name and her name is Kate now that she’s a child-bearing woman. Way to control woman Cruise-master.

This is one of the reasons why I love Fox television. They are having a new reality show on their programming schedule for the summer. The premise is quite simple. It will take 5 adult porn stars, and have them perform Shakespeare and other serious monologues on a stage, in front of a live audience in California, and the viewers will vote off someone each week. Can you imagine Jenna Jameson portraying Juliette and Ron Jeremy as Romeo? Oh thank god for Fox television.

One more story to report. Kelly Clarkson is on the way to the television. Kelly is the latest celebrity to give a testimonial on the infomercial for Proactive. Proactive is an acne cream that currently has a infomercial that features Jessica Simpson, Alicia Keys, Puffy, and Vanessa Williams. Good Job Kelly. Your career is blowing up like Britney’s pregnant belly.

Pickler Picked Off

Friday, April 28th, 2006

Ok, and away we go.

Some sad news to report first off. On Wednesday Night, Kelly Pickler the French Tickler was voted off of American Idol. Who am I going to crush on now. Oh I know, I can focus all my attention back on the Original American Idol Kelly Clarkson. The Picks is just a flash in the pan, 1 month away from doing a spread in Playboy But Kelly Clarkson is here to stay people.

Speaking of Idol, Everyone’s favorite fat winner, Ruben Studdard has picked his choice for this years competition. His choice? Well that would be Taylor Hicks. Good pick Ruben. Anyone named after a tasty sandwich has got to know what he is talking about.

Next story, People Magazine just released it’s annual list of The Most Beautiful People. This year Angelina Jolie topped the list, and also got a prime spot on the cover. This is her fourth time on the list, but her first time on the cover. Way to go Angelina.

Jolie

Man are some celebrities super-stupid., get this. Michelle Rodriguez from “Lost,” pleaded guilty to driving under the influence in Hawaii. She was offered either 240 day community service or a $500 fine and 5 days in jail!!! She picked the fine and jail time…HELLO Michelle, is anybody home?

Howie Day was in an East Boston courtroom yesterday. He was given a year’s probation and was also ordered to undergo alcohol counseling. This is all a result of Day’s drunk and unruly behavior on a flight in Boston back in December. Now there is an upstanding citizen.

Snoop Dogg was arrested with 5 others after causing a fight at London’s Heathrow Airport. The disturbance reportedly involved 30 people. The incident was sparked when Snoop and his people were turned away at the business lounge. At one point, whiskey bottles were being hurled at police officers. Several police officers were injured during the scuffle. Snoop was on his way to South Africa to perform in Johannessburg – he never made it on that flight.

 Snoop

Ok, last story. It appears that Rosie O’Donnell is returning to the old television. Extra Television is reporting that Rosie signed a 7 million dollar a year contract to replace Meredeth Vierra on The View. I wish her the best of luck. I really enjoyed her show a couple of years ago.

Maury’s A Manwhore

Tuesday, April 25th, 2006

Ok Ok Ok, so I know, call me a slacker. I have let each and every one of you guys down. There is so much celebrity gossip going on in the world, and I dropped the ball more than the Knicks. Any who,, and away we go.

US Magazine is reporting that Britney Spears is pregnant again. She is due in late September or early October, almost a year to the birth date of Sean Preston. Let’s just hope that this one stays in their highchair. OMG I just thought, how great would it be, if the baby was born on September 7th. That would be totally suite.

Britney Bikini 

There is a new celebrity couple out there. I earlier reported about Charlie Sheen and Denise Richards officially being over. Now it appears that Denise is dating Richie Sambora. First it is Heather Locklear and David Spade. Now Denise and Richie. It is just like that the whole Hollywood relationship thing is just one giant incestual pool. I will see how long this one lasts.

Denise 

Nick Lachey’s 98 degrees band mate Jeff Timmons was arrested over the weekend. For what reason you ask? Well Drunk Driving my friend. He was arrested and posted the 500 dollars bond. I guess his plans for running a governmental position in Ohio will have to be forgotten,

Rumor has it that Jennifer Aniston is giving up smoking but it’s not for her health. Jennifer apparently wants to do a musical. She was inspired by Reese Witherspoon in “Walk the Line.” I wonder how her singing voice is. I would say mediocre, but she isn’t bad to look at.

Speaking of the Hollywood Incest Pool, The National Enquirer is reporting that Simon Cowell bought Jennifer Lopez’s home in Beverly Hills for $10 million. Simon plans on tearing it down and building another. You think he has some cash to burn.

2 more stories to report. Man is Maury Povich a manwhore. Talk-show host Maury Povich has been hit with a $100 million sexual harassment lawsuit. The suit was filed Monday by a producer of the show, Bianca Nardi, 28, who alleges that she was made to expose herself in the studio for crude videos that were shown to guests of the show. Nardi also claims that executive producer Paul Faulhaber ordered her to dress in short skirts and low-cut shirts, wear hidden camera microphones and secretly tape married men agreeing to have sex with her. Nardi recently left the show and said that a sexually hostile workplace was created on the set by Povich’s longtime affair with Donna Benner Ingber, another producer of the show. Povich is married to television newswoman, Connie Chung.

And finally, my favorite Country group’s guitarist got hitched over the weekend. Joe Don Rooney from Rascal Flatts, married Tiffany Fallon, who was the 2005 Playmate Of The Year. Good for him. I bet the sex is great between the two of them.

Just Friends

Saturday, April 22nd, 2006

And away we go.

I always love it when celebrities give the “We’re Just Friends Line” Vanessa Minello and Nick Lachey are the latest it celebrity couple to use that line.  Minello has said “She says, “I’ve known him for years and he’s a friend and I admire his work… and, of course, you know how the biz goes - as soon as I worked with him, now, all of a sudden, we’re dating! No! We’re not dating.”  Interesting Vanessa, very interesting.  I wonder if they will officially announce they are a couple or she is expecting his baby right before his album is about to drop.

Vanessa   Vanessa
  This is exciting.  The Pussycat Dolls will be on every young girls and every old perverted man’s christmas wish list this year.  Hasbro has officially liscenced the rights to The Pussycat Dolls to turn them into 8 inch tall dolls.  I wonder if a bottle of clorox is included, to clean off the hands of the kids who play with them, because those girls are SKANKY.  I do love their cd though.

On Wednesday night, we said goodbye to Ace-rockola on American Idol.  All I have to say is that it is about time.  Ace had a mediocore voice, and only lasted so long on the show because of his rugged good looks in my opinion.  We are now down to six, and my two picks from the beginning are still in it. 
 

Ace

I could totally see this happenning.  Charlie Sheen has been ordered to stay atleast 300 feet away from his ex-wife Denise Richards, or their two young children.  Richards has accused Sheen of pushing her, shoved her, and threatened to hurt Denise and her parents.  Sheen calls these accusations all completely bogus, and said it will all be worked out in a court of law.  Apparently Richards and Sheen agreed to go to marriage counseling, but it was Richards who stopped going after 2 sessions.

Charlie 
 

 David Lee Roth has been let go from his morning radio show hosting gig.  Roth will be replaced in seven markets, including WBCN in Boston, by The Opie and Anthony Show.  Roth was chosen by Howard Stern to replace him in the morning shift on 14 stations across the country.  Opie and Anthony are currently on XM Radio after being kicked off of commercial radio after a contest went totally wrong, and a couple had “butt” sex in St. Patrick’s cathedral.  Where is the problem?  I wish O and A lots of luck.
 

Last story, in what is one of my favorite non-Britney stories, Kate Moss’ ex-boyfriend; Pete Doherty was arrested again yesterday in East London.  This most recent arrest came only three hours after he was let off on other drug charges and ordered to serve 18 months in a rehabilitation program in lieu of jail time.  Plain-clothes police arrested Doherty and another man for possessing class A drugs with intent to supply.

Suri you have to be kidding me

Wednesday, April 19th, 2006

Good afternoon and happy day after the birth of the century.  If you have not heard by now TomKat had their baby.  An of course that is my lead story.
 

As I reported last night, TomKat had their baby yesterday.  They named the Baby Suri, and it weighed 7 pounds, 7 ounces, and was 20 inches long.  As it was reported earlier, it was a silent birth.  The reasoning behind that was Scientologists believe words spoken during times of pain are recorded by the “reactive mind” and can cause potential problems for both mother and child.  Suri will join Cruise’s other two children Isabella and Connor who he adopted with ex, Nicole Kidman.  This is Holmes’s first child. 
 

What is a weird coincidence was that Cruise’s arch-enemy, Brooke Shields also gave birth yesterday.  Cruise has openly bashed Shields because she has taken meds to get over her post-partum depression after giving birth to her first child.  I think maybe these two should slap on the gloves for the next episode of Celebrity Boxing.  Now that would be Suite.

Brooke
 

So far this season, AI has dominated in ad sales.  They are the most expensive show to advertise on.  They charge 1.3 million dollars for a 30 second spot.  To put it in perspective, the Super Bowl, which happens once a year, charges 2.2 million for a 30 second spot.  Idol is here and here to stay kiddies.
 

Jennifer Aniston called into Oprah yesterday and helped set the record straight!  Oprah is not throwing Jennifer a wedding!  Damn I guess I now have to return the gravy boat I got them.

Jennifer Aniston
 

Bruce Springsteen has announced a concert tour and he will be coming to Boston.  Following the band’s initial US date in New Orleans on April 30 and a series of ten concerts in Europe, the US tour resumes with a series of 18 shows kicking off in Boston on May 27 and finishing in New Jersey on June 25.  No word yet on when tickets go on sale.
 

Melissa Etheridge and her wife Tammy Lynn Baker are expecting twins.  Baker is pregnant by an anonymous donor.  Good for them.  They always seem happy together in all the pictures.  I am pleased that Tammy stuck by Melissa when she went through her Chemo.

Melissa 

 

Hopefully this time she will kick any bad habits she has.  Troubled diva Whitney Houston has reportedly checked in to a rehab clinic in Arizona in a desperate bid to kick her alleged drug addiction.The singer is seeking help at the Sierra Tucson clinic in Tucson, Arizona, according to the entertainment news show Extra.The news comes just weeks after Houston’s sister-in-law, Tina Brown, went public with her fears for the singer.

 Whitney
 
OK, last story…Elvis first home is currently avaliable on Ebay.  The first house rock legend Elvis Presley ever owned has been put up for sale on auction website eBay.  The singer bought the four-bedroom house in Memphis, Tennessee in 1956 and lived there with his parents and grandmother for one year.  The highest bid on the house right now is 225,000.00.  The bidding will end on May fourteenth.  Now if it was Kelly Clarkson’s or Hilary Duff’s childhoom home, well than I would cash in my 401K.

TOMKAT had their baby today.  Katie Holmes delived a healthy baby girl today named Suri.  Suri is the hebrew word for Princess.  OK, I ask you one question.  When did Scientologists speak hebrew?  Whatever…I wish the two of them best of luck.

Britney Rules

Sunday, April 16th, 2006

Good morning one and all and Happy Easter. I will now move on to the reason why each and every one of you are here. My endless wit and charm, well that and a big ole scoop of celebrity gossip.

This is kind of insane, television producers want to put Britney Spears in another television show. Apparently they were really impressed with her guest role as a Southern Lesbian on Will and Grace and they want to give her another role. This time it is on a pilot called Detention, and it is already picked up to air on NBC next season. I will pass along more info when I get it. You know a day without a nice Britney story, is like a day without sunshine.

Britney and Sean

 

 

 

 

 

Last night on Saturday Night Live, Amy Pohler who co-anchors the news with Tina Fey, reported on the Sean Preston falling out of his high chair story. Pohler said that Britney defended herself by saying “It’s alright y’all, he was drunk.” Good one Amy.

 

 

Britney With Wine

 

Well this should come as no surprise. This past week, Forbes Australia released the names of the top 10 Richest Celebrities. The top 2 positions went to rumored lovebirds Nicole Kidman and Keith Urban. Kidman made over 24 million last year, while Urban clocked in at 21.5. Also on the list were Russell Crowe, Kylie Minogue and Eric Bana.

Nicole Urban

A movie of the best-selling book The Nanny Diaries is currently being cast. Scarlet Johansson will play the lead role, as the woman from NJ who goes into the city to work for the upper-class family, and Alicia Keys will play her best friend. I personally loved that book. It was just a giant expose of what happens in the socialite world of NYC. I can not wait for the movie.

Alicia Keys

Kelly Clarkson will be touring again this summer, in support of her album Breakaway. It will be a 24 date outdoor venue tour starting in Florida, and hitting all the big cities, including the Tweeter Center in Jersey, across the US. Her album Breakaway has spent 76 weeks in the top 40, and has churned out 4 number 1 hits. It really has been a magical year and a half for Kelly.

Kelly at VMAs

Jennifer Love Hewitt is just classy, and always takes the high road. After Wilmer Valderama said how he had sex with her, Mandy Moore, Lindsay Lohan and Ashlee Simpson on the Howard Stern Radio Show, Love was quite frank and adorable with her response. She said “”I was told that we had all these very steamy encounters and I was like, ‘Really! Well, I would have loved to have been there!’” You go girl, beautifully said and done.

OK, one more story to report. Brad Pitt is now sporting a Mohawk identical to his adopted son, Maddox. Angelina Jolie and Pitt have been hanging out in Africa with their adopted children. I swear that the Pitt-ster is going to make the coolest dad around.

Bye Bye Bucky

Thursday, April 13th, 2006

OK and away we go, 2 days in a row.  OK I will stop the rhyming.

Last night on American Idol we said goodbye to Bucky Covington.  I am upset that Paris was not even in the bottom three, and Ace is still there.  Bucky was mediocre but there were at least 2 or 3 people much worse than him.  Last night, they showed video messages from each of the contestant’s friends and families, which was definitely a ratings moment, seeing Katherine and Kelly Pickler the French Tickler crying.  Next week, they will be performing the songs of Rod Stewart.  Should be interesting.

Bucky 

Ewan McGregor appears to be taking a page out of the Angelina Jolie memoirs.  McGregor and his wife adopted a 4 year old girl from Mongolia.  The couple already has 2 children together, Esther and Clara.  Oh My God, they named their oldest daughter Esther?  Esther is a Jewish grandma’s name, not an adorable 4 British girl.  Whatever.

 Ewan

This is a great story.  Desperate Housewives actress Nicolette Sheridan is selling her engagement ring on EBay.  The ring, which she received from her ex-fiancé is from Tiffany’s and Company, and is valued at $20,000.  Nicolette says that her putting the ring on EBay is her way to put closure to a roller-coaster of a relationship she had with her ex.  Get this though, the money is going to……..HER POCKET.  Um, hello Trashy Party of 1, your table is now ready.  I could understand the closure part, but at least give the money to charity.  Sheridan is now engaged to 90’s crooner Michael Bolton.  I give that marriage 2 years max. 

 This story actually makes me tear up a little bit.  Ryan Seacrest use to be much heavier as a child.  When he was 13 years old, my idol Seacrest would come home from school, plop himself down in front of the television, eat a cookie sheet of homemade nachos, which he would make with a full-sized bag of Doritos, and watch Oprah.  Poor guy.  I do my best to report one good Sea-hunk story every day or two. 

Seacrest

2 more stories to report.    There is a new celebrity relationship to report.  Adam Duritz, lead singer of The Counting Crows is dating Trishelle from Real World Las Vegas and The Surreal Life, Season 2.  I could not be happier for Trishelle.  This is a big trade up, as her last boyfriend was Steve-O from Jackass.  Big ole step down for Adam Duritz though, who as we all know use to date Courtney Cox & Jennifer Aniston.  

Trishelle

And finally, speaking of The Real World, they already announced their location for season number 19.  While they are still currently showing episodes from Real World Key West, the next one will take place in Denver Colorado.  I think The Real World has lost the flair that it one had, but it is still pulling in great ratings for MTV.

OK, so last night was back to back premieres of my 2nd favorite show, My Super Suite 16.  It was stellar.  If you get a chance to watch these two episodes over the weekend, please do.  You will laugh, you will cry, you will want to claw your eyes out with a bar-b-q fork.  It is that bad, it is train-wreck television at its best.

Thank God For Britney.

Wednesday, April 12th, 2006

Good morning one and all, and away we go.
 

Thank the Lord, there is a God.  It is only April 12 but I already have a favorite story for the entire 2006 calendar year.  Child Welfare Services and a local Malibu Sheriff paid a little visit to the home of Britney and K-fed recently.  The reason?  Oh that would be that Sean Preston fell out of his high chair, and hit his head.  Luckily the baby was not hurt.  Ok now we can all laugh and point at Britney.  What sort of trailer-trash is this girl?  As the story goes right now, Six-month-old Sean Preston fell April 1 as his nanny was lifting him from the high chair and something in the chair snapped.  I wonder when the real story is going to come out.  Like Britney was running to find her wallet to pay for her shipment of cheetos, and dropped Sean Preston on his head.  Why does it have to be the nanny, and not K-fed.  Thank You Britney and Kevin, 

Britney


Some sad news to report.  I am not big on the whole hip-hop scene, but D 12 rapper and Eminem’s BFF; Proof was shot and killed Monday in a nightclub in Detroit, right off of 8 Mile.  Proof, real name Deshaun Holton, was dead on arrival at St. John Conner Creek, an outpatient treatment facility that used to be a hospital.  “It’s kind of a messy affair, and we’re trying to sort it all out,” said police Chief Ella Bully-Cummings.

Proof

Last night was another fantastic night of American Idol, as all of the contestants performed Queen Songs.  I will make my prediction right now, tonight we will say goodbye to Paris Bennet.  She has just been off her mark as of late.  I also think it is time for Ace to leave the show.  Long live my 2 picks from the beginning, Kelly Pickler and Chris Daugherty.
 

2 more stories to report.  US Weekly are reporting that Gwen Stefani and Gavin are expecting a baby girl.  I am truly excited for these two.  They are both good people, and good musicians.  I wish the two of them the best of luck with their new bambino.

 Gavin and Gwen
 

And finally, Star Magazine is reporting that Jessica Simpson is fed up with “Laguna Beach Actress Kristin Cavallari, who is convinced that she dated her ex-hubby Nick for publicity reasons.  The final straw was a side-by-side photo comparison comparing Jessica to Kristin in Star.  According to reports, she was furious and she thought it was insulting and embarrassing to be lumped together with a nobody like Kristin, who is bust a 19 year old reality star.  In no time, Jessica got Kristin’s cell phone number and began prank-calling her.  Yes.  You totally kick royal butt Jessica.  Stand by your ex

Hope everyone had a nice weekend, I do apologize about the lack of updates, but away we go.
 

So it appears that Apple now has a new sibling to play with.  Over the weekend, Gwyneth Paltrow went through a C-section and out came a new baby Martin.  The baby is healthy and is in the loving arms of both Chris and Gwyneth.  Would it be too tacky to name their new bouncing baby boy Martin Martin?  Or Martian Martin?   Or my personal favorite Grey Goose Martin.  Oh man the possibilities are endless.  Too bad they opted for the super boring Moses Martin.  I am annoyed they took the traditional route.  They stink.

Ok, next story.  A new Britney Spears song has been leaked to the Internet.  The 50 second snippet of her new song is on her official web site, to paying members only.  (Um I might be a paying member)  From what I heard of it, it is the Britney of old, pop music so sugary it will give you a cavity.  I so can not wait for Britney’s new CD to be released in the fall.  It is totally going to rock.  I just hope it is released on my birthday.

Over the weekend, Ice Ace 2 became the first movie of 2006 to break the 100 Million Dollar mark.  The weekend box office ended up as follows (Basic Instinct 2 was nowhere to be found)
 
1. Ice Age: The Meltdown, $34.5 million
2. The Benchwarmers, $20.5 million
3. Take the Lead, $12.7 million
4. Inside Man, $9.2 million
5. Lucky Number Slevin, $7.1 million
6. Failure to Launch, $4.1 million
7. ATL, $3.7 million
8. V for Vendetta, $3.3 million
9. Phat Girlz, $3.1 million
10. Thank You for Smoking, $2.4 million

Teen lovebirds Ciara (I read somewhere that she was a hermaphrodite) and Bow-Bow have broken up.  I feel bad, I truly thought that a pre-teen rapper, and a girl with both parts down there could have made it. I guess Cupid’s arrow narrowly missed a true match made in heaven.

Let’s see what else is going on in the world of celebrity news.  The Rolling Stones performed their first concert on mainland China this weekend.  The band was forced to censor several songs, and eliminate five: “Let’s Spend the Night Together”, “Beast of Burden”, “Brown Sugar”, “Honky Tonk Woman” and “Rough Justice”.  The suggestive “Start Me Up” slipped through the censors to open the show.  Gotcha, I never knew that Beast Of Burden was a bad song.
 

This is exciting news involving my American Idol.  Ryan Seacrest over the weekend bought Kevin Costner’s $11 million, 10,000 square-foot Los Angeles mansion in the Hollywood Hills.  Woo-hoo yeah.  Go Seacrest.  I guess that E! money is really coming in handy.
Seacrest  
In what is my favorite story of the month, Paul McCartney’s wife Heather Mills is now in a wheelchair.  The one-legged model had major reamputation surgery.  She will be in the wheelchair for a few weeks and then recuperate on crutches.  This comes a year after Mills’ prosthetic leg was allegedly knocked off by one of Jennifer Lopez’s bodyguards.  Sue J-lo.  Take her for every penny she has. 
 

And finally, I am very pleased to announce, that Wednesday, Kevin Federline will officially launch his own web site. Kfedrocks.com. I totally can not wait to see what Britney’s money is now paying for.  I am just amazed that he registered the site Kfedrocks.  That would be like me registering MangoRocks.com Wait that gives me a great idea.
