I'm pretty sure I am the 18 millionth person to write about this but - I can't believe Heath Ledger is dead! Celebrities doing drugs and celebrities dying from doing drugs is always in the news, but... Heath Ledger?! And only 28! Unbelievable.
I know they have been split up for quite some time now, but poor Michelle Williams and little Matilda.
I've been staying away from the debacle that is celebrity gossip, bu due to popular deand from halfway around the world: Britney has temporarily lost custody of her kids! The bad driving, the drinking, the drugs... it's all caught up to her and of all things, K-Fed now gets to hang on to the kids until further notice, because Brit is such a mess. It is a sad SAD world when K-Fed is the better one!
Okay, maybe it's just me (and the rest of the world) but... is Suri Cruise an ASIAN baby?! Hot off the press from the latest issue of Vanity Fair. I contemplated posting the picture here but decided against it because I couldn't the bear the thought of having a controversial baby's face on my blog. So after all the hooplah about whether or not Suri Cruise actually exists and what she looks like blah blah blah, I was expecting... not that. Never mind the fact that this baby was supposedly born in April of 2006 and yet looks to be at LEAST a year old. I'm just saying.
Anyway, a new season of The Ellen DeGeneres Show premiered this week in Central Park and I'm just gonna put it out there right now - I like Justin Timberlake. I still think it's super weird that he's dating Cameron Diaz, but I like him, okay? There, I said it. Whew, another thing I had to get out of my system.
Back to reality tv - I have discovered a fabulous new blog called Blogging Project Runway and have added it to my list of Blogs and Stuff over on the right. Very entertaining read for those of you out there who are Project Runway fans, and quite frankly, I don't see why you wouldn't be! And speaking of, thank goodness Angela and her crazy "signature rosettes" are finally out. I also happen to think Michael should have won again and NOT Jeffrey. Hmph.
Okay, so first of all: Celebrity Duets SUCKED. Baseball was rained out but I still could not even bring myself to sit through all of this most awful show. Aside from the fact that I could not even readily identify half of the "celebrities" competing on this show, it was just very poorly done and very awful to watch. Instead I did manage to land upon 101 Guiltiest Guilty Pleasures on E!and it was remarkably entertaining. (Guilty Pleasure #78: Boy Bands. Yes I'm guilty.)
To satisfy my celebrity gossip fix, I feel compelled to inform you that apparently Matt Leinart, previously linked to a variety of random "celebrities" including Laguna Beach cast members, has apparently knocked up a USC basketball player. I gotta say, she's kinda hot, but there is just something very disturbing about him becoming a father.
I'm not even going to comment on the supposed Jessica Simpson-John Mayer relationship, because it is really just incredibly unsettling to think about. Nick Lachey and Vanessa Minnillo on the other hand...oh who am I kidding, that one is even more unsettling.
and as quickly as it started...it's over. Talan and Kim Stewart broke off their engagement and the wedding is off. gee, didn't see this one coming at all, considering they've only been dating a few weeks. but they're still "friends." and Talan is off to pursue a music career. oh dear.
jessica simpson and nick lachey are officially over. finito. kaput. three years of marriage and all those season of the newlyweds down the drain. bummer.
i am by no means caught up on my shows. i've been delinquent with my tv watching -- too busy chasing boys around :) but did want to share that i found out they are doing another season of Dancing With the Stars starting in january...woohoooo!
happy turkey everyone!
do people like taylor townsend actually exist in this world? her character has been crafted in such an unbelievable way that i can't help but wonder where the concept of taylor townsend came from. and seriously, kidnapping captain oats? girl's got some issues to work out.
i came to the realization that 90% of my posts were about the LB, so i'm somewhat at a loss now that the season's over. christina aguilera got married, britney's on her way to broadway, and paris' boyfriend Stavros (aka i-drive-with-my-coat-over-my-face) is being blamed for trashing the Hard Rock hotel at kelly osbourne's 21st birthday party. just your average week of hooplah in tinseltown.
crap, i can't believe i forgot... thank you j for the reminder. my brain is so fried i totally forgot that i read this in gawker today:

see j's comment in below post for the link to the more politically correct cnn version.
he really likes her!
So surely I don’t need to tell you all that you should be watching Best Week Ever, because you ALL ALREADY KNOW that its one of the best things on television, RIGHT? So hopefully that means that you all caught that bit about TALAN hanging out with PARIS HILTON!?!? To recap for those of you that missed it (though quite frankly, I don’t see how you could considering that in addition to Best Week Ever, it was also on every single entertainment show on tv – AND cnn):
Paris Hilton, her new boyfriend Stavros, Kim Stewart and Talan Torriero get into a Bentley outside some night club in LA. Stavros attempts to drive off with a jacket over his head to hide his face from the paparazzi…and the road. He guns it and slams right into a parked truck. How did that happen? Well, its hard to drive when your VISION is cut off by the JACKET covering your FACE, don’t you think? As if this isn’t bad enough, they drive off in the dented Bentley, only to be pulled over by the cops a few blocks down the road. At this point, the cast of characters is standing outside of the car chatting with the cops and Talan says to the cops – now keep in mind Talan had been sitting in the back seat and NOT the driver’s seat – “I’m the only sober one in the car.” WHAT?!?!? Oh Talan we love you but you are an IDIOT. And of course, then by the miracle that comes along with fame, Paris blows the cops a kiss and off the kids go. No breathalizers, no tickets, no arrests, nothing. God I love Hollywood.

As for the OC, I’ve given up hope that I can watch a single episode of the show without seeing a) Ryan punch someone, and b) Marissa wearing a really insanely low-cut top with no bra on. However, Taylor Townsend’s mom telling her that her ass was not made for low riders was the funniest shit I’ve seen in a long time.
Hey people, some parting words – Evan called you a deadbeat! Did you hear that? Yeah, I’m talking to you. I don’t know who you are, but if you’re reading and not participating, you are a deadbeat reader. This is a group effort guys. I'm not here for my own health. Now what are you going to do about it?
