| Jennifer Lopez denies she’s engaged by getting her song stuck in our heads Posted: 11 Jun 2012 08:31 AM PDT
We’ve heard all sorts of stories that Lopez is just about to marry Smart. It’s her M.O., and US Weekly even ran a story in late April that she was about to marry Casper, was “certain she wants to be with Casper forever” and was anxious to expand her family with him. Well Jennifer says she’s not engaged, and we shouldn’t be fooled by the diamond she’s got on her left ring finger inviting speculation.
[From People] So she’s not engaged, but she is letting Casper sabotage her career by sitting in on really important business meetings he should have no access to as her boy toy. Maybe this means her people are starting to get through to her, and are telling her she better not make herself a laughing stock by making Casper any more legitimate than she already has. Or maybe she’s starting to wake up to the reality that this is a fling with a much younger guy, and that it would be supremely stupid to marry him, although I doubt it. Hell she might just be engaged and the people running her website are doing damage control. It’s not like she even retweeted this.      |
| Kim Kardashian’s divorce deposition won’t be filmed, but the trial might be Posted: 11 Jun 2012 08:28 AM PDT Kim Kardashian and Kris Humphries are still married. Can you believe that? My general thought is that Kris wants to make Kim pay out big time, and he wants to "destroy" her as best he can. Kris and his lawyers are waiting out Kim and her lawyers. My guess? Now that Kim is with Kanye, she has even more incentive for wanting her divorce to be completed so she and Kanye can begin their famewhore-marriage storyline. Throughout the negotiations and back-and-forth, Kris Humphries has always maintained that he's the injured party, that Kim is a slut who was boning other dudes during their marriage, and that he (Kris) is the only victim in the situation. He's also maintained this idea that he wouldn't "date" anyone until the divorce came through. As you can imagine, Kris hasn't been living up to that idea. As CB reported last week, Kris was seeing a girl named Myla Sinanaj. She's a famewhore too, and she was promoting herself with her association with Kris. Kris's lawyer tried to shut her down, and TMZ reports today that there are still negotiations with this girl. Team Humphries says Myla is trying to "extort" him for large sums of money, using the evidence of their relationship as collateral. Kris has taken the matter to the FBI, which is… bizarre. What the hell does this girl have that's so "damaging"? Proof that they were dating while Kris is still a married man? Ugh. You can read more about the situation here. So, the divorce is still proceeding at a snail's pace. Radar reports that Kim and Kris have finally scheduled their depositions, and Team Kardashian won a "victory" – the depositions are NOT going to be videotaped. Which is probably the first major event in Kardashian history to not be on camera.
The last time I talked about this ongoing divorce battle, I ended up calling Kris a petty dumbass who needs to get over it. Everyone yelled at me because you're all so, so anti-Kim. I don't really get it, though – I'm not crazy (krazy) about Kim either, but it's perfectly possible to think Kim is a dumb, cat-faced famewhore AND think that Kris is a petty dumbass who really needs to move on. He's not morally superior. He's not some shining anti-Kardashian advocate. He's just the dumb caveman loser that agreed to marry Kim and now he wants to get paid and he wants to humiliate her.

| Katy Perry might play Freddie Mercury’s girlfriend in a new biopic: disastrous? Posted: 11 Jun 2012 08:26 AM PDT We were warned a few months ago that Katy Perry was being courted by Hollywood producers as an instant movie star simply because she’s so pretty. Now an actual project is reportedly being lined up with quirky Katy in a featured role as the girlfriend/common-law wife of late Queen singer Freddie Mercury, who will be played by stunt-butt-for-hire, Sacha Baron Cohen. Katy is said to be thrilled to be considered for the role of Mary Austin because she idolizes Freddie, which doesn’t mean that she’s a talented actress of course or that she has the chops to pull of playing Freddie’s wife. Still, Katy thinks she can do it, and if she’s already been shortlisted, that means someone has faith in her ability, I guess. If you’ll remember, Katy dressed up as Freddie for Halloween in 2008. MTV has a photo of Mary Austin with Freddie, and I really don’t see the purported resemblance between Katy and Mary at all. But hey, there’s always makeup. Here’s the details:
[From MTV] This sounds like a disaster in the making because Katy has a little esperience in voice work (The Smurfs) and will play herself in an upcoming 3-D concert movie, but when she tries to actually act — such as during her “Part of Me” video where she joins the Marines — she comes off looking ridiculous. But hey, if investors want to throw their money her way, I guess that’s ultimately their problem. Poor Freddie Mercury. Here’s a few photos of Katy showing off a butt cheek as she stumbled out of a London nightclub over the weekend. Pure class, that one. Photos courtesy of Fame/Flynet and WENN          |
| Jennifer Aniston’s beauty secret for “keeping wrinkles at bay”: Vaseline…? Posted: 11 Jun 2012 07:53 AM PDT Back in March, The Mail had a story about Jennifer Aniston shelling out thousands of dollars a month to maintain her beauty. According to the report, Aniston was all about the "best" in skin care, beauty treatments, massages, spas, makeup, etc. The Mail's figure was $8000 a month – excessive, of course, but I didn't think much of the report, figuring that Aniston probably did spend a lot of money taking care of herself, but it probably wasn't $8,000 a month. A few weeks afterwards, Aniston actually went to People Magazine to specifically deny The Mail's story and claim that she only spends $200 a month on beauty treatments. Which was interesting because A) I don't believe Aniston ONLY spends $200 a month on herself and B) Aniston will not come out and deny any of the stories about the unholy Bermuda Triangle or any of the millions of stories about her womb, her dating life or how she casually uses the word "retard" in conversation, but she'll totally come out and deny a story about her beauty treatments. Which leads me to what I'm sure is another dumb "Aniston's beauty treatments" story. Now Magazine and The Mail claim that Aniston loves using Vaseline to "keep wrinkles at bay." For real.
Sure, I'll buy that she spends a half an hour every night doing this crazy-extensive beauty ritual. I'll also buy that Aniston is tweaking occasionally – sometimes she looks Botoxy and full of fillers, sometimes not – which says to me that she's not getting the "non-surgical" stuff on a weekly basis, but she is doing something. As for the Vaseline – my mother swears by it, but she uses it to take off her eye makeup. I guess it works as some under-eye treatment too. Photos courtesy of Fame/Flynet.    |
| Serial mistress who brags about dating married men (update: she emailed us) Posted: 11 Jun 2012 05:15 AM PDT
[From Mirror.co.uk] It goes on, but I’ll spare you. I love how she says it’s “cruel” to tell women their husbands are cheating with her, but how she justifies it as not hurting anyone in this other essay. If this is true, if this woman really feels this way and if she wasn’t just paid to lend her face to this website ad, then of course I think she’s a bad person. She can justify it all she wants, but it’s still obvious what she is. There’s no pride in being a serial mistress. As for why men find her attractive in the first place, it kind of speaks to the phenomenon of cheating. It’s not about looks. I’ve heard that men often cheat “down,” and go for low hanging fruit when it comes to getting some on the side. Update: Karen has e-mailed us asking us to change the title from “bedding” to “dating.” She writes that she “dates married men occasionally, I certainly haven’t bedded them all.” She adds “I have had enough grief from the article since other sites (who I might add have been sent exactly the same email) have been rewriting what was originally printed. I approved the original story, I have not approved any of the rehashed crap that has followed. People will still think what they want, and judge, but I just prefer the facts out there rather than scandal with no substance.” So this is for real. I’ve been e-mailing with her quite a bit and she’s been pretty decent to me about this whole thing, and about what we wrote about her.    |
| Blake Lively covers Marie Claire, talks boyfriends: “I’ve been with very few people” Posted: 11 Jun 2012 04:33 AM PDT Blake Lively covers the July issue of Marie Claire as part of her promotional press tour for Savages. That's the film she did with Oliver Stone – and Blake is really hoping her performance takes her to the next level. I don't really have an opinion on it, considering I haven't seen the film and I don't have a rampant hate-on for Blake. I will say this – I was not impressed with her voiceover in the trailer. She sounded bored and vapid. Maybe that's her character, though. In which case I think Blake might have been typecast. Anyway, here are some highlights from Blake's Marie Claire interview:
[From Marie Claire & People Magazine] Marie Claire's Nina Garcia also notes that Ryan Reynolds' dog Baxter makes an appearance during the interview, which is basically yet another confirmation that Ryan and Blake are totally serious about each other. They will get married. Eventually. Blake is waiting to see how Savages does. You think I'm joking – the reaction to the film will determine the next steps she takes with Ryan. As for Blake's continued insistence that she styles herself… I tend to believe her. I think that's why she looks "off" on some many red carpets. But I respect that it's HER vision for how she presents herself and not someone else telling her "You look amazing!" when she clearly doesn't. Photos courtesy of Marie Claire.    |
| Lil’ Kim performs at the LA Pride Festival: unrecognizable and sad? Posted: 11 Jun 2012 04:30 AM PDT This is just an FYI: this is what Lil' Kim looks like these days. We haven't documented Lil' Kim's transformation into a cutlet-cheeked cat over the past several years, but I guess it's worth noting that Kim's face used to be somewhat normal, back in the day. I think her plastic surgery makeover really began in earnest after she got out of jail… maybe five years ago or so? Anyway, she's 37 years old and this is what she looks like now. These photos are from Lil' Kim's performance at this weekend's LA Pride Festival – she got a really great reception there, which is nice.
I don't really know how to feel about Lil' Kim and her new face and her faltering career. I remember when Kim used to a much bigger star, and she brought an interesting energy to the music industry – she was interesting, you know? She was sexy and unconventional and it feels more and more like "unconventional" isn't acceptable in the hip-hop world. Unless you count Nicki Minaj, who probably owes Lil' Kim a great debt. I also think Nicki and Kim might have the same surgeon. Just for reference, here are some older photos of Lil’ Kim, circa 1999-2002: And here she is the Pride Festival. Photos courtesy of WENN.    |
| ‘Prometheus’ comes in 2nd in the weekend box office: did you love or loathe it? Posted: 11 Jun 2012 04:28 AM PDT I went to see Prometheus this weekend. I wasn't alone – Ridley Scott's kind-of/sort-of Alien prequel ended up making $50 million in the US over three days (Friday through Sunday), and it came in second at the box office. Surprising no one, Madagascar 3: Europe’s Most Wanted won the box office battle with more than $60 in its opening weekend. Family-friendly films, cartoons especially, they always do well. The top five was rounded out by (in order): Snow White and the Huntsman, Men in Black III and The Avengers. Both Madagascar 3 and Prometheus are doing really well overseas too. Many are calling Promtheus's opening "strong" and "proof" that Ridley Scott and Damon Lindelof (the screenwriter) have some kind of magic touch. Would you like to know what I thought of the film….? ***SPOILERS*** This isn't a full review or anything, mostly because I'm still trying to figure out if I liked the movie. I didn't think Prometheus was "great" or mind-blowing or anything like that. It actually reminded me a lot of Lost - debates about science versus faith, debates that go nowhere, plot points forgotten and never resolved, more questions than answers. I think the performances by all of the actors were much better than the meandering and sometimes stupid script deserved. Obviously, I saw it for Michael Fassbender (mostly) and a little bit for my girl Noomi Rapace. Noomi plays the lead character, and I really hoped she would be strong, tough and kickass in the vein of Sigourney Weaver's Ripley. Noomi wasn't. It wasn't her fault. Damon Lindelof has issues writing for women. Noomi did the best she could do, but at the end of the day she really wasn't kicking anybody's ass and some of her lines made me roll my eyes. I will single out Logan Marshall-Green – he's really sexy in motion, and he has a great body, and I was genuinely sad when some stuff happened to his character. Charlize Theron's part was basically a throwaway – it felt like she could have been a cut-throat, manipulative hardcore bitch, but again: Lindelof cannot write for women and her character felt like they were trying to give the audience a “reason” to understand why she was the way she was. Idris Elba was basically sleepwalking through his role. Eh. Do you want to hear more about Fassy? His dong-bot David was the opposite of sexy. He was a cold, freaky bastard and Fassy played him very asexual. There's a scene – one of my favorite, crazy, "WTF?" scenes in the beginning – of David bleaching his roots while watching Lawrence of Arabia. And it stuck with me because… robots have hair that grows? And David wasn't a natural blonde? And a robot decides to dye his hair? So f–king random. That's what the movie was full of – random crap like that, and it's like you were supposed to put all of these BS pieces together to form some kind of monumental realization about faith and mankind… and it was just kind of meh.

| Jenny McCarthy on her Playboy cover: “I grew out a bush” Posted: 11 Jun 2012 04:27 AM PDT
As you may know and not care about, Jenny is about to pose in Playboy again. She first posed for the men’s mag at 21, which helped launch her career as a sexy doofus. Recounting her first experience posing nude, Jenny told Oprah that s the Playboy people were surprised when she first took off her undies because she supposedly had the hairiest nether region they’d ever seen. In an appearance on The Today Show, Jenny said she’s using her pubes to maintain her modesty or something:
You know how Jenny has her talking points? We heard her talk about her sex life during her last press tour, when she bragged that she was very horny and claimed she was great in bed. She did the same thing on Howard Stern last week (video is here) on which she said of giving beejs “I’m very very good at it. I will actually research on how to make sex more interesting and better, whether that’s positions and I’m cartwheeling on that… talking dirty.” This woman only has so much to sell, you know? It’s not like she has a particular talent that we know of. Jenny talks about her Playboy spread at 2:30 in the video below.

| Ellen Barkin leads the Botox parade at the Tonys: doesn’t she look like a zombie? Posted: 11 Jun 2012 04:25 AM PDT Last night, the Tony Awards were held in NYC. Neil Patrick Harris was the host, and he referred to the night as "Fifty Shades of Gay.” Which isn't funny, honestly. Unlike the past few years of the Tonys, the awards weren't dominated by movie stars-turned-Broadway stars, like Denzel Washington and Scarlett Johansson. This year the winners included Broadway stars that you've probably never heard of like Steve Kazee, James Corden, Nina Arianda. You can read more about the awards here. Neil was there with his partner, David Burtka, of course. I love NPH – and I love that he continuously gets the Tony hosting gig – but I'm still iffy about David. Still, both boys looked nice in their tuxedos. More stars/celebrities at the Tonys – Cynthia Nixon in an unknown designer. The dress is horrible, but typical of Cynthia – she really isn't interested in fashion. She shaved her head for Wit, which she was nominated for (and lost). Andrew Garfield, nominated for Death of a Salesman. He lost but he wins in life because his girlfriend Emma Stone was with him inside the ceremony – she didn't walk the carpet, so we don't have photos – you can see some here. I love this boy, but he does not photograph well. Amanda Seyfried in Givenchy. OMG, this is so terrible. WHY would you do this? Why would you make this dress and why would a young star want to wear it?!? The color combination of purple and orange is always going to be garish and cartoon-y, never sophisticated. And even if the dress worked (which it doesn't), Amanda's styling sucks too. Stop with the Croydon facelifts, people. ELLEN BARKIN IS COMING FOR YOUR BRRRRRAINS. This is why you don't tweak and Botox. Cote de Pablo is so pretty, I think. I love her. She had no reason for being at the Tonys other than the show airing on CBS, and she's one of the stars of CBS's biggest show, NCIS. I would have chosen another dress for her, but she's still so pretty. Photos courtesy of WENN.    |
