Linda Evangelista & Pinault testify about income, gifts & Salma Hayek’s pregnancy Posted: 06 May 2012 07:47 AM PDT Friday's story about Linda Evangelista's child support case was a doozy, and it's just going to get more intense with more testimony coming on Monday and Tuesday. From what I've read, it seems like the whole "Billionaire Francois-Henri Pinault asked Linda Evangelista to get an abortion" thing happened on the first day of court. On the second day of the court case, Pinault and Evangelista both gave testimony about who said what and when. Pinault even spoke about (his now-wife) Salma Hayek's pregnancy with Valentina, and how they thought for months that (still-in-utero) Valentina may have Down's Syndrome. Oh, and Pinault's lawyers claim that they had approached Linda with offers of child support, and SHE was the one who gave them the silent treatment, which is a direct contradiction of Linda's earlier claims (and the reason for the this whole child support case). Here's more:
[From Page Six] I said on Friday that I wasn't really crazy about Linda or Francois-Henri. They both seemed kind of awful to me, but at this point, I'm definitely leaning more towards Linda. Sure, I still think the $46,000-a-month figure is kind of crazy, but as far as Linda's side of the story… yeah, I think she's the one telling the truth, or a more truthful version of what went down. Pinault made it seem like he acknowledged paternity of Augie very quickly when it's clear he was shining Linda on, dragging it out for a long time until Linda forced the issue. I think Pinault fell in love with Salma and simply didn't want to have to deal with all of the issues with Linda and Augie – and thus, he ended up treating Linda and Augie like crap. I also think Pinault's lawyers are probably full of it as far as the "we offered her support years ago" thing – that version simply doesn't make sense. As for Pinault and his "gifts" to himself… yeah. That looks really bad, especially when he can't remember what he gave his son! Photos courtesy of WENN, Fame/Flynet and Pacific Coast News. |
Princess Charlene is not pregnant, depressed, tacky & friendless, sources say Posted: 06 May 2012 07:38 AM PDT Poor Princess Charlene. I know some of you don't feel sorry for this poor woman, but every time I read about her or see new photos of her, I just feel a wave of sympathy. We haven't heard much from Charlene recently, except for the epic haircut that failed to take the world by storm. Incidentally, I still like the haircut. I think it suits her a great deal, and her hair looks much healthier like this. Anyway, there are some new reports about Poor Charlene. And none of it is good news. According to The Mail and the French publication Voici, Charlene is "depressed" because she's still unable to get pregnant. Sources claim that Charlene and Albert's "pregnancy pact" is real – meaning that she's basically a broodmare, only fit to provide a legitimate heir, and once she does that, she will be allowed out of the marriage. The "pact" was widely reported last year, around their wedding – incidentally around the time that Charlene allegedly tried to pull a runner THREE TIMES only to have her passport confiscated in one of the most medieval twists in modern royalty. The gist of the new report is that thus far, she's having issues getting knocked up. Probably because she feels like vomiting whenever she has to be within five feet of Albert and they have been living separately this whole time?
[From The Mail] The royal spokesman's statement still runs a chill down my spine. It's the phrasing, right? "…We are all praying that she will ensure the royal succession in our principality. Albert… knows that the time is now right to produce the next ruler of Monaco." BROODMARE BROODMARE. Ugh, it's so… disgusting. The Daily Beast had additional excerpts from this Voici article, plus some exclusive dirty, plus some old gossip that's kind of interesting – you can read the full piece here. A court insider told The Daily Beast, "People are embarrassed by [Charlene]. There was a hope that she could introduce some glamour, but now most people just feel she is tacky." Another insider says that society people in Monaco have "taken to pre-emptively apologizing for Charlene." That's so rough! Also, sources say Charlene doesn't have any friends in Monaco, and she still hates her husband. I'm including some recent photos of Charlene doing some solo events in Monaco – I think she looks like she's really trying to make this "public figure/First Lady" thing happen. She seems very down-to-earth at public events. She reminds me of Princess Diana a great deal. |
Brandi Glanville accuses Eddie & LeAnn of leaking false report, Brandi gets promoted Posted: 06 May 2012 07:19 AM PDT I'm sorry I didn't get to this story earlier, but I did want to see how everything was playing out with Bravo and Brandi Glanville and everything. Last week, Radar had a suspicious report about Brandi's potential "promotion" on Real Housewives of Beverly Hills. There had been reports that Brandi would be made a full cast member, a full-time "Real Housewife". And then "sources" told Radar that Bravo wanted Brandi and Eddie Cibrian's sons to appear on the show, and Eddie and LeAnn had put their feet (hooves) down. I talked about it in this post – including my take on the hypocrisy of LeAnn and Eddie, who call the paparazzi regularly for "candid" photo-ops of themselves with Mason and Jake. Anyway, Brandi had a fit on Twitter regarding the Radar story, and a Bravo source ended up going to E! to talk about the situation:
[From E! News] To be fair to original Radar report (which seems to have been leaked by Camp NEIGH!), they didn't say Brandi was fired from RHOBH, they only said she wasn't getting promoted to the full-time cast. A source also confirmed Brandi's full-time casting to RumorFix, and the source (totally Brandi) says: "Eddie is going to fight Brandi about having them in the background on the show… They are constantly doing photo ops and interviews that include the kids and Brandi does nothing. She is going to fight back but Bravo isn't involved, it's all good with them. Eddie and LeAnn are always doing staged photo ops and interviews – Brandi just wants to see the kids when she has them." It's also totally worth it to check out Brandi's Twitter – go here to see it. She was on a tear after that Radar report ("well someone is still being a dick but its not Bravo") and she's been tweeting about going to family therapy with LeAnn, Eddie and the boys. Brandi was also at the Kentucky Derby! I'm not sure how I feel about animal print at the Derby. Keep it floral, ladies! |
Taylor Swift Bolt-on Watch: Swifty steps out looking somewhat deflated? Posted: 06 May 2012 05:39 AM PDT Is it gross that I kind of enjoy talking about Taylor Swift's breasts? I'm not approaching the subject in a leering, predatory way. My interest is objective and analytic. The seemingly wide variations in size interest me as an amateur scientist. Perhaps PBS's NOVA program can be called in to provide some additional, completely scientific theories. The background: a few weeks ago, I somehow missed the fact that several gossip outlets were discussing whether or not Swifty got herself some bolt-ons, a story completely based on new photos of Swifty walking around, looking particularly busty. We talked about it last week – I really didn't have a solid theory on Swifty's rack, but I did think it was pretty obvious that *something* had happened. Maybe she just found some really great push-up bras, maybe she got bolt-ons, or maybe she's just growing them naturally. The "natural growth" theory might have legs, by the way. I noticed several commenters said they had gone up in bra size in their early 20s too – so did I! I was 21 years old when I became a DD. Anyhoodle, I'm including some new photos of Swifty on May 4 – the pics where she's wearing red jeans and a blue-and-white striped shirt. Let's do the timeline of Swifty's rack. Once again, this is Swifty in profile on April 1st, at the Country Music Awards. Here's Swifty on April 23rd in Beverly Hills. And here she is on May 4th. My take – I think her boobs ARE bigger, but not as big as the April 23rd photos would indicate. Maybe she was wearing a really great push-up bra that day, I don't know. I think she was barely an A-cup on April 1st, and now she's a B-cup. Did it happen naturally? Did she get "enhanced"? Or is it still just a good bra?

Kim Kardashian in full-skirted white for LA gala: unflattering or actually pretty? Posted: 06 May 2012 05:38 AM PDT These are some newish photos of Kim Kardashian two nights ago at the "Night of Generosity Gala" in LA. Don't ask because I don't know. What I do know? Kim Kardashian needs to stop with skirts cut like this. This is one of my biggest annoyances about "makeover" shows – many of the stylists don't bother dressing girls for their respective shapes. A full skirt like this is fine a narrow-hipped, small-bottomed girl. On a girl built like Kim, it ADDS weight. Kim has a tiny waist and shapely legs – this outfit screws with her proportions, makes her legs look short, makes her look thick-waisted, and it makes her ass look HUGE. Add to this to the styling issues: those janky extensions combined with her electrolysis-adjusted hairline makes me think that she's wearing a wig. Rough. In other Kim K. news, her lawyer is still beefing with Kris Humphries:
[From Us Weekly] I know some of you are on Team Humphries, but I'm not one of you. While I do think Kim is massive famewhore and idiot, Kris Humphries in an unmitigated tool. He's been dragging this out for so long, people have stopped caring too. I'm including some photos that Kim posted on her Twitter & Celebuzz pages two nights ago because she was "bored". I do not like that busted wig on her. But she comes close to pulling off the boots. The closeup of that crazy shoe – those are the shoes that she "broke in" at the Night of Generosity Gala. |
Amanda Bynes was involved in a hit-and-run in LA, but she wasn’t charged Posted: 06 May 2012 05:14 AM PDT Just before Easter, Amanda Bynes seemed to feel like she had to put herself out there as the new child-star-turned-train wreck, the new Lindsay Lohan. Bynes was arrested (and held) on a DUI charge after she (drunkenly) plowed into a cop car. After her arrest, Amanda continued partying – and I mean that literally. Like, as soon as she was out of jail, she went to The Standard and they refused her entry. She was also spotted outside of the Marmont a week later, where she was presumably behind the wheel again after partaking in some beverages – and she was also texting and driving, and she hit a curb too. There were other incidents too – enough that everyone feels this girl is just a mess. But still, it's California, and the legal system is a joke, so Amanda is still drinking and driving and thus, she probably got into a cracked-out hit-and-run on Friday:
[From TMZ] First of all, this girl needs to stop trying to "pass" cars while she's loaded. That's what happened when she hit the cop car! She was trying to pass the cop (always a horrible idea, by the way). As for the whole "I didn't know I hit someone" argument – for real? AND THE COPS BOUGHT IT? So of course she wasn't cited or anything. Ridiculous. I bet she doesn't even have to pay the city for the excess of police presence her little hit-and-run ended up costing – People Magazine notes that in addition to an LAPD helicopter, "a total of six police cars arrived on the scene and made contact with Bynes." The police spokesman also notes, "It turned out the damage to the pick-up truck was so minor that it was very plausible she had no idea that she hit anyone. Because of that, we decided not to charge her with hit and run, took a traffic report instead and sent her on her way. There were no arrests made and no one was injured.” They didn't Breathalyzer her either. As for her original crime, the DUI, Radar says that the DA will charge Amanda with "failure to take a chemical test". A police source tells Radar: “Amanda Bynes refused to take a breathalyzer test, or blood test, which is required under California law when someone is arrested for a DUI. Bynes will be officially charged with refusal to take a chemical test in connection with being arrested on suspicion of DUI, and this should happen in the next one-two weeks. Amanda’s first court date will be in Beverly Hills at the beginning of June. She won’t be required to be there because it’s only a misdemeanor.” In convicted, Amanda could lose her license for a year and face a 48-hour jail sentence. Basically, a dumbass slap on the wrists. |
