| Kelly Osbourne admits to getting drunk over distress at Jack’s MS diagnosis Posted: 28 Jun 2012 08:44 AM PDT Jack Osbourne has recently opened up about his Multiple Sclerosis diagnosis, and he’s further commented that his parents, Ozzy and Sharon, handled it worse than he did. Jack has also stressed that his condition is not a death sentence, and he’s correct. Even though the quality of life severely deterioriates as the illness progresses, doctors have concluded that those with MS have a nearly normal life expectancy. Still, one can understand why Kelly Osbourne would be particularly distressed at her brother’s diagnosis. She and Jack have always been very close, and about a week ago, Kelly was spotted taking a “sobriety break” while getting drunk on a first-class plane trip, and her spokesman initially denied the eyewitness report:
[From Daily Mail] After Star’s report came out, Kelly backtracked on her spokesperson’s initial statement. She spoke to Radar online and came clean about why she got drunk on that plane. Apparently, a fellow approached her with some information about an MS website, and when she looked up the site after boarding the plane, she (in her words) “lost it“:
[From Radar Online] I’ve always wondered how some people manage to complete alcohol rehab and still occasionally knock back a drink or two. Drew Barrymore, the queen of childhood rehab, now indulges in the same way and has even launched her own brand of Pinot Grigio, so I guess it works for some people depending on what drove them to drink in the first place. I don’t know — I’m not an expert, but I find it hard to blame Kelly for drinking in this instance. If my brother was diagnosed with MS, I’d probably hit the bottle as well.

| Jessica Simpson claims Weight Watchers hasn’t put “any pressure” on her Posted: 28 Jun 2012 08:31 AM PDT Ever since Jessica Simpson's Weight Watchers endorsement deal was folded into her People Magazine reveal of baby Maxwell, I've described the weight loss deal as a "bounty on Jessica's head" and "setting herself up to fail." In my defense, I think time may prove me right. But for now I have to backtrack and allow Jessica to defend her weight loss plans because she wants everyone to know that Weight Watchers is NOT holding her hostage and forcing her to go to the gym at gunpoint. YET. “Just so everyone knows . . . Weight Watchers hasn’t put ANY pressure on me! I’m trying to be as healthy as I can be for myself and I feel great.” Do you think Jessica is telling the truth? Eh. I think Weight Watchers is probably being nice about everything now. But a few months from now, it might get rough. Like, the lawyers might get involved and there might be threats of withdrawing Jessica's endorsement and contract. Or… Jessica could do really well on the program. It works for many women, and maybe Jessica is the kind of person who does well with the structure of Weight Watchers. Have you noticed that Jessica and Weight Watchers haven't released any specific goals to the public? The tabloids claim Jessica wants to lose 50 pounds in five months, but I suspect that whatever Jessica manages to lose will be considered a "win" for WW and they'll just claim that was her goal anyway, after the fact.

| Jennifer Lopez’s glittery bodysuit on tour: unflattering and tacky? Posted: 28 Jun 2012 08:04 AM PDT Don't even start with me! I love Jennifer Lopez's curves. I think she has always had an amazing body, and she still has an amazing body. What I absolutely hate is how she clothes her curves. I consistently find her style so, so tacky. And her costume choices for her tour are no different. A glittery catsuit? RLY?!? Anyway, these are just a few photos of J.Lo on stage in Rio de Janeiro. It's unflattering. In other J.Lo news, did you hear the story about her toilet seat? I feel like we've covered this before, but no… I feel that way because every diva has a crazy tour rider these days. Anyway, J.Lo is apparently requiring her own special toilet seat on tour. Is that crazy? Or is it understandable? Because I can't decide anymore.
Yeah, so maybe I just wanted to talk about that rider rumor because of the old school Bennifer information. It wouldn't surprise me at all to learn that Ben had gotten Jennifer a diamond-encrusted toilet seat. Do even remember what Bennifer 1.0 was like? I do. They were magical!! Meanwhile, Jennifer has announced plans to release a "Greatest Hits" album. I saw you roll your eyes!! Seriously, she has hits. The album will be released next month. Go here to read more about it and her tour. Photos courtesy of Pacific Coast News.    |
| Chris Evans: “I like women who get emotional about babies and puppies” Posted: 28 Jun 2012 07:26 AM PDT When Chris Evans was on the promotional trail for The Avengers, certain things became obvious. Like, we now know that he's a really neurotic bastard. We also know that he's single and ready to mingle, but he's looking for his perfect girl who has an other-worldly blend of traits. It seems that Chris is looking for a Boston Girl who always has wet hair, wears sweatpants and who will "give me a hard time, bust my chops a little." He likes girls who "make fun of themselves." And most of all, he says, "I just want someone with a good soul. That's about it. The rest I'm really flexible on. I like a good ass, though. I will say that. I can say that? I like a big ass." So, there you go. Big ass, from Boston, just out of the shower, wearing sweatpants, willing to bust his chops and willing to be made fun of. But wait! Chris has another requirement:
Love the Jessica Biel name-check. As for Chris's requirements – I don't think they're any big deal, mostly because I fall into many of these categories. I have a big ass. I was born in Boston, Massachusetts (although I self-identify as Southern, having lived in the South most of my life). I'm wearing sweatpants right now, and my hair is still damp from a morning shower. I can bust chops too, although I do find it difficult to have my chops busted. I don't cry over babies. I do cry over puppies and kittens though. And I cry at those Olympics commercials about "The hardest job is the best job" motherhood thing. Those commercials are KILLING ME at the gym. I've burst out in tears on the treadmill watching them. So… basically, I'm Chris Evans' perfect bitch. Come and get me, you neurotic bastard. YEAH I SAID IT. Also – I don't want to talk about the gonorrhea thing. We'd probably get a letter from his lawyer about it anyway. All I'll say is that gonorrhea is totally treatable and it's not a total dealbreaker. Photos courtesy of Fame/Flynet and WENN.    |
| Ann Curry cries on her final day on ‘Today’, she’ll still work for NBC News Posted: 28 Jun 2012 06:59 AM PDT The Firing of Ann Curry has come to its logical end, with Ann given a chance to say goodbye to viewers this morning, live on air. TMZ claimed that NBC was hellbent on getting Ann off the air by Friday, and it looks like Ann and NBC were able to work out a deal late last night. Ann gave a pre-interview to USA Today before her goodbye – it's a very sympathetic piece, a lengthy piece in which Curry is given a chance to defend herself and discuss in vague terms what her new relationship will be with NBC. You see, she's not really leaving, like sources claimed she wanted to leave completely with a $20 million golden parachute. Curry and NBC worked out a deal where (I think) she got a fraction of that, plus a job "leading a seven-person unit with a ticket to cover the world’s biggest stories, from the civil uprising in Syria to the plight of the poor in America. She’ll produce network specials and pieces for NBC Nightly News, Dateline, Rock Center— and Today— and she’ll occasionally fill in as anchor on Nightly News and elsewhere." Curry also told USA Today that she doesn't know "who has been behind the leaks, but no question they’ve hurt deeply.” She talks a lot about how she wasn't given a chance to "work out the kinks" as co-anchor and she wished she had more time. You can read the full USA Today piece here. Then, this morning Curry said goodbye on Today. She was very emotional, and I did end up feeling sorry for her. It sucks that everything played out so publicly, and it sucks that her reputation has taken such a hit – although, to be fair to NBC, her reputation was taking hits every day she was on the air as co-anchor. Here's the video and some highlights:

So, it's over. Everyone says Savannah got the gig and TMZ claims that Natalie Morales is fine with it, and she'll be staying on too. Such a wicked web that Matt Lauer weaves… but NBC values him, and Lauer gets to write his own ticket. It's always been said that Lauer renegotiated his contract several months ago with the provision that Curry would definitely have to go – so I find it particularly cold that he could sit there, beside a weeping Curry, acting like he was so sorry that she was put in this position. SO GLIB. Photos courtesy of WENN.    |
| Amber Heard & her girlfriend are over, Amber & Johnny Depp are “100% dating” Posted: 28 Jun 2012 04:30 AM PDT Ever since the tabloids began claiming that Amber Heard and Johnny Depp were in the midst of some kind of torrid affair, naysayers have fallen back on the "But she's a lesbian!" argument. Except, as I've noted before, Amber doesn't self-identify as gay. She's said before that she's had relationships with men and women, which makes her a bisexual in my book (I keep a book on these matters). The naysayers also claimed that Amber could not be boning Johnny because she was involved with a woman, Tasya van Ree, for several years spanning Amber's friendship with Johnny. Well… here's one question answered. In Touch (via Starpulse) claims that Amber and Tasya are over. And they've been over for a while.
So… Amber and Tayse were done earlier this year. I always thought the Depp-and-Heard stories had some merit, and this helps solidify it in my mind. I'm not saying that Johnny left Vanessa Paradis for Amber, or that Amber left Tayse for Johnny. Quite the contrary – I think Johnny has been fooling around with lots of women, and lord knows who Amber's been hitting up. But I do think they had something. And maybe they still do. In addition to that, E! News confirmed a story that originated in the British tabloids – Johnny bought Amber a horse! E! News has a source who claims that Johnny bought Amber a horse so "Heard can join him on the trails" in New Mexico, Arizona and Colorado where he's filming The Lone Ranger. Hm. Plus, I got the chance to read Us Weekly's full cover story on the Depp-Paradis situation – we discussed parts of it yesterday. Us Weekly's sources really do come out and verify that Depp fooled around with "an extra" on POTC: On Stranger Tides named Antoinette Kalaj, although her rep denies it. A source claims that Johnny "would fly her on his jet to meet him." Eh. Us Weekly also says Amber was one of his conquests. A source says Amber and Johnny have been hooking up for months and "he's smitten by her." The claim is that Johnny and Amber didn't sleep together until the publicity tour for The Rum Diary began last year, and that they're still seeing each other now with a source confirming, "They are 100 percent dating. He treats her really well." Johnny has also been hitting the booze. Hard.
[Via Us Weekly, print edition] There's a lot of pity-poor Johnny stuff in there, but I did find one detail interesting. The entire gist is that it was VANESSA and not Johnny who wanted out, and that Vanessa was pushing the whole split, ever since 2010 basically. Allegedly, Vanessa told Johnny in 2010 that she wanted out for good, but they "agreed the kids' lives shouldn't be affected. That's why they didn't announce it."

| John Edwards’ daughter told him to dump Rielle Hunter or she’d never speak to him Posted: 28 Jun 2012 04:30 AM PDT
[From The National Enquirer, print edition, December 27, 2010] So we know Elizabeth was very concerned about Rielle moving in with John, and that she tried to ensure that John would not give this nasty woman any kind of legitimacy or money beyond monthly child support. That’s why I love this story that Elizabeth’s oldest daughter, Cate, now 30, told her dad to dump Rielle after she came out with that horrible book trashing Elizabeth. As we know, he did dump the bitch. Here’s the story, via Radar:
[From Radar Online] John was weak enough to take up with this creature, he probably wouldn’t have dumped her without this ultimatum from his daughter. It’s not like he wasn’t screwing whomever would have him on the side, but in her mind Rielle was the head bitch. The rest of us just know her as a head case. The only photos we have of Cate are from her wedding day in October, 2011. Her dress and her bridesmaids’ dresses are so pretty! It’s sad that her mother couldn’t have been there. Here’s Rielle at the airport in NY on 6-26-12. I bet that dark-haired woman behind her is the nanny. John Edwards is shown in 2007.

| The real cost of Duchess Kate’s style over one year: $163,000 Posted: 28 Jun 2012 04:28 AM PDT Earlier this week, we discussed the Duchess Kate story about exactly WHO pays for her wardrobe, and how much she's spending. As it turns out, Kate's public style (the clothes she wears for public appearances) is being entirely funded by Prince Charles through his Duchy of Cornwall estate. Sources claim that Kate has already spent $45,000 on clothes – in just this year. I discussed my issues with this – go here to review. Once again, I think that number is probably in line with what a fashion-forward princess/duchess should/could spend in six months… if only Kate worked a little bit more, she might be seen as "deserving" of that kind of wardrobe and extravagance. However, this is a woman who has barely held a real job EVER, and who barely makes one public appearance a week on average. But the anal retentive math geniuses at The Mail decided to review a different set of criteria – how much has Kate spent over the course of the past 12 months, including the cost of new jewelry, hats, fascinators, clothes, purses and shoes. They have an honest-to-God LIST, broken down, of all of the stuff Kate has worn – go here to see it. The price tag for The Year of Waity? More than $163,000. For real. Of course, this harsh accounting came with a pro-Kate propaganda piece:
Carole Lombard actually worked for a living. She bought her own clothes, or borrowed them from the studio (and returned them later). I'm just sayin'. Anyway, this was just to let you know – months ago, I was joking that the royal propagandists were going too far by praising Kate for the most mundane things. I joked that people acted like Kate's hair style was "The Hair That Saved A Nation." But really, that's what it's come to. I can't believe someone is falling all over themselves to praise Kate for spending all of this money, none of it her own, and with so little to show for it with, you know, actual WORK. And we’re still not talking about how much she spends on hair, makeup, skin care, dental work, “princess training”, voice lessons, etc, etc. Photos courtesy of WENN.    |
| Blake Lively in yellow Gucci at NY premiere of ‘Savages’: lovely & sunny? Posted: 28 Jun 2012 04:27 AM PDT Finally! Blake Lively is wearing Gucci! I was wondering why she didn't go for Gucci at the LA premiere of Savages, considering it was just announced last week that Blake has been made the new face of a new Gucci perfume. And here she is, representing her contract, at last night's NYC premiere of Savages. She chose well, I think. I like this dress – this shade of yellow seems like the kind of color only a blonde can really pull off. The cut is lovely, Blake isn't falling out, she looks summery and pretty. I basically have no major complaints here. The bracelets are excessive, but that's a minor thing. I even kind of like Blake's giant braided ponytail. It's eye-catching and unique. As for the rest of the premiere-goers… no Salma Hayek. No Benicio del Toro. No Aaron Johnson. Just Blake and Olivier Stone (not pictured, because I doubt anyone cares), plus Taylor Kitsch (he looks like he's gaining weight, right?) and John Travolta. JT is wearing the same busted toupee he wore for the LA premiere. But this time he didn't have his wife attached to him. I guess JT wanted to have some solo "boy time" in New York. Maybe New York has really world-renowned masseurs. Cough. Photos courtesy of WENN.    |
| Is Miley Cyrus living on 500 calories a day & working out 3 hours a day? Posted: 28 Jun 2012 04:26 AM PDT These are some new photos of Miley Cyrus and her fiancé (y'all!) Liam Hemsworth at last night's LA event, "Australians In Film Awards & Benefit Dinner at InterContinental Hotel". Honestly, Miley and Liam were the two biggest stars at the event. And I have to admit… they looked really cute together. I loathe Miley's Totally '80s dress (by Zimmerman), but I like her hair and her makeup, and I do think she's trying to look more mature and "classy" now that she's engaged. She just wants to show off her hot Pilates body too. There are better ways, Miley. As for Liam… is it okay if I think he has a better face than his big brother Chris? Chris has the face of a meathead caveman. Liam is sort of caveman-esque too, but there's more "pretty" happening there. In other Liam and Miley news, the tabloids have some assorted stories this week. According to Star, Liam is "worried" about Miley's dramatically shrinking figure and Liam is "threatening" to call off the wedding if she doesn't gain some weight back. A source tells Star (via HL), "The ridiculous thing is, she started this regimen because she was worried Liam would fall for his [Hunger Games] co-star Jennifer Lawrence. She decided that the only way to keep him was to get the best body of her life." Allegedly, Miley is now living on 500 calories a day and she works out for up to three hours a day. Hm. I think Miley is on that weird diet, but I think she's probably eating regularly, and she's getting more than 500 calories a day. But I do think she's working out A LOT. Also, there's a story about Miley wanting to take a break from Hollywood and the music industry, allegedly. A "friend of Miley" told HL, "Miley is on a break from show business… Miley is done! She is tired and wants to live a normal life. She feels like she never had a childhood and wants to just be normal right now and spend time with her fiancé. She is kind of rebelling right now. Everyone wants her to do an album and she's like 'Whatever!' She is just tired and exhausted and wants a normal life. Can you blame her?!" While I don't and wouldn't blame her if she felt this way (in fact, I'm pretty jealous of her life), Miley is totally working on a new album. She's focused on music, and… I don't know how it's going to work out. Photos courtesy of WENN.    |
