And away I go kiddies. First day back, and I already need a vacation.
Miss Puerto Rico won the Miss Universe Pageant over the weekend. 40 minutes into her reign, she collapsed during a post pageant news conference. They say that she is okay and that she got dizzy because of the heat and tightness of her dress. Her dress did show off her killer rack though.
Nissan is pulling a television ad featuring Kim Cattral in New Zealand after numerous complaints from the Standards Council. The complaints were sparked by some of the sexually suggestive dialogue in the commercial, particularly Cattral’s line, “Why didn’t you tell me it was so big?” in reference to the automobile. Next month she will be selling feminine hygiene products at the local state fair.
Tina Fey over the weekend officially announced that she will not return to “Saturday Night Live” in the Fall. Instead she’ll work full time on her new show, “30 Rock” with Rachel Dratch and Tracy Morgan. Fey stars in the show and also writes and executive produces. I hope they keep Amy Poehler on the desk. She is great. How about they pair her up with Seth Meyers. That would be super-suite.
Hugh Laurie and Felicity Huffman were both snubbed by the Emmy’s this year. Neither one of the actors were nominated, but both were named as presenters at the Emmy ceremony over the weekend. I am not surprised. Desperate Housewives went downhill quickly this past season.
“Pirates of the Caribbean: Dead Man’s Chest” topped its third week at the box office, taking in another $35 million and bringing its total to $321.7 million in 17 days. “Monster House” came in second and “Lady in the Water” took third place. My movie pick over the weekend, Clerks 2 placed 6th, with just under 10 million dollars. I totally enjoyed the movie, and laughed out lout numerous times, including the whole @$$ to Mouth conversation.
2 more stories to report. This is crazy!!! Charlie Sheen just earned an Emmy nomination for “Two and a Half Men” so now he wants $1 million PER EPISODE. That’s “Friends” and “Frasier” salary territory. Currently Sheen makes about $200 grand an episode. Well Ducky should make at least 1,500,000 if Sheen gets that amount.
And finally,
I was reading “Star” magazine and I read this article about Britney Spears and according to Britney, “In my family, we walked around the house naked. By the time I was 13, my dad was like ‘Uh, Brit, it is time to start covering up.’” Britney explained her naked endeavors by saying “I’m free like that.” Oh to be the Dogs Playing Poker picture on their trailer wall.
