OMG....How killer.
Indeed...that pun was intended. See how I did that?
Killer Dexter Giveaway!
See what I did there? Because Dexter's a serial... never mind. Ahem. Attention Dexter fans! MamaPop and the generous folks at Showtime are happy to present this latest giveaway of Dexter Season 4 promotional merchandise, including: a Dexter bib for your little sociopath's next feeding; 2010 ...
What scares me the most is that her family and friends rely on Twitter, Perez, or some other gossip chain to provide them with information about her well being.
I too read perez, it's a bad habit. But i tend to read him more for these kind of mishaps, or when he starts another firestorm over calling someones kid a potato head, etc.etc.etc. I think he, King Spencer and heidi are riding on the same crazy train where the more assanine they are, the more followers they get. people need to just ignore him and his attention seeking ways...
Which means I need to let go.
Perez Hilton Needs A Remedial Spanish Lesson
I'm gonna come out and say it: I, Miss Banshee, read Perez Hilton. I read him because he, for some reason unknown to god and man, gets the stories first, and I want know the second something happens like Megan Fox saying something stupid, or Jennifer Aniston being seen with someone of the o...
At first, and I mean like...way back in the day, I thought their whole act was kinda funny. Keyword being: kinda. But seriously, it's really getting to the point where these two are ruining themselves and their families. It makes me sick when Heidi does the whole "Praise God" ordeal. Is that really necessary? I know she wasn't always like this, right? Spencer has to have some weird brainwashing mechanism going on in in his flesh colored beard. I just can't help but think that Heidi really could have made it on her own without him by now. Maybe even have done some crappy D-List movies or started her own reality show.
Is Spencer Pratt The New Andy Kaufman?
Because seriously, as I sit here writing about him for the umpteenth time, vowing, as I always do, that I will never write about him and his facial pubes ever again, ever ever ever, I have to give the little bastard credit. He knows exactly what he's doing. He loves what he does, and he's extr...
This.
We get it, you like having kids.
Duggars Expecting Child Number Nineteen. At What Point Was Eight Not Enough?
In a fit of boredom a couple of weeks ago, my husband and I started watching that Duggars show on TLC. We had barely made it through the credits before I had to rewind to double-check something: I needed to confirm they had actually given all 18 of their children names that start with the lette...
Well...
We can hope that he just goes away. I cannot imagine that he will have a major comeback if he decides to do so. I hope he takes his god-awful fashion sense with him too.
Chris Brown Formally Sentenced And Then Parties
Chris Brown was formally sentenced Tuesday to five years' probation for beating Rihanna. He also was ordered to complete 180 days community labor to be personally supervised by the chief of police in Brown's hometown of Richmond, Va. He must personally come to court every three months during ...
Am I the only one who finds it Bitchin' that Larry King dresses like Justin Timberlake?
Quick Pic: Last Night at Spago, Beverly Hills
Larry King's Trophy ______ (Wife? Girlfriend? Nurse?), LaToya Jackson & Larry King Anyone else getting a Wizard of Oz vibe? Look! It's The Cowardly Lion, The Tin Man, and howsabouta little Viagra, Scarecrow? I'm sorry. It couldn't be helped.
A few things:
1) She does have a huge head.
2) Never underestimate the power of cleavage...I can bet half of those who tune in to her show are men...because I can name a handful of friends and family members who do just that.
3) Despite the fact she annoyingly does the slight Italian accent...I would rather watch her over Rachel Ray. Her voice makes my eyes water.
Fin.
Giada de Laurentiis' Cleavage is Out To Get Us
What do you think of Giada de Laurentiis' cleavage? When you see the Food Network chef's bosoms, does it make you reach for a nice Chianti, or do you find it disturbing and start to feel funny down there? At least one person watching doesn't appreciate Giada tossing her big, ripe tomatoes in w...

Seriously, what happened to MTV? Gone are the days of Pedro and Jon the Cowboy. Instead we have been subjected to Sweet 16 and Next, which shows teens/college students that it's okay to be a spoiled brat and promiscuous. I was relieved when they premiered "True Life" and even more so when 16 came about. After the whole Bristol Palin thing, I think it's good MTV is offering a real life perspective on what pregnancy is like, especially at that age.
I hope that MTV starts coming back to the programs they once had. Now that TRL is out of the way, I think they should focus more on these types of shows, instead of rich bitches getting BMW's and strippers at their 16th birthday parties.
The Test Is Positive: I'm Addicted to 16 and Pregnant
When I first heard about MTV's new show, 16 and Pregnant, I cringed a little. In my opinion, MTV is not exactly a somber source for commentary on social issues, at least not lately. Think back to the first season of The Real World, when the cast members discussed things like finding a job, bei...
Are you on the Bump? LOL.

In the Summertime by Mungo Jerry. Seriously...how can you not bre in a good mood after hearing that?
Life Is A Highway, Or Something. (Hey! Want A SlotRadio?)
So, for the last week and a half, I've been on a road trip. Across Canada. With my children. Which, yes: I AM CRAZY. What is saving my life: an in-vehicle DVD player and a whole lot of XM radio, which is less than optimal, because you can't program radio. You never know what music is going to...
* I'm merely pointing out that the figures of popular culture captivate the American imagination in a profounder way than religious figures *
You totally made me think of John Lennon and his " Bigger than Jesus" comment from 1966. I think it's amazing how Pop Culture has been the Bible of our society. It seems like in order for us to live and learn, we are taught by living vicariously through celebrities, musicians, and athletes. Ryan Seacrest finds it necessary to produce shows about The Kardashians and Denise Richards. We spend countless amounts of money on magazines because Heidi and Spencer have managed to AW themselves again.
But I truly find comfort in knowing that when I have a bad day, and all is said and done...that I can curl up in my blankets, push play on my I-Pod and find solace in music.
Yes Michael Jackson was eccentric. There may have been a possibility that he did molest children. But when I listen to " The Way You Make Me Feel" I still get goosebumps all over. I'm not in any way, shape or form condoning any of his behavior, but merely suggesting that because of his enormous stature in Pop Culture, he lost control. And I honestly do not believe there would be anyone or anything that could have ever helped him. It makes my heart sad. But it also makes me sad that when someone I know personally dies, that no one knew of their accomplishments but those closest to them. You want to shout it out to the world that he/she did just as much for society as a celebrity, if not more. But it just doesn't work that way.
My grandma always used to say that reading the obituaries in the newspaper was something she always looked forward to because they were the only thing she could read about that always had something nice to say about anyone.
Thoughts About Why Michael Jackson's Death Made Me Gaze Into The Empty Sky
I've been watching the dust settle from Michael Jackson dying and feeling pretty weird about it. It's fitting, no? Michael Jackson was weird. Hearing he died was weird. But reading the reactions to his death on the internet? My God, it's weirder than sleeping in an oxygen chamber with a pet mo...
Okay, so I just watched the video of Perez's statement on his website. So here are my thoughts:
1) The whole gay slur thing angers me. Like you mentioned, why is it okay for him to call others by that word ( I hate that word, not going to even repeat it) and not expect to get slammed for that? Now if it had been Will.I.Am who had called him that we would ban BEP's albums, and he'd probably be kicked out of the group after Perez led a mob of angry fans.
2. He calls their manager "unprofessional" and has also written numerous blogs about how people should act more mature during arguments, act "classy" and here he is saying " F you Will.I.Am" " F this, F that"
3. While I totally understand that violence is not the answer...I don't understand why he can't grasp the concept that it's because of the horrible things he says about other people that caused this. I'm surprised that he hasn't been physically attacked before, especially for picking on the children of other celebs by calling them "fat" or saying they need nose jobs are a bag over their heads. You are right, violence isn't the way, but verbally attacking others because they don't bow down to you isn't the way either.
Perez Hilton Assaulted by Will.I.Am of the Black Eyed Peas?
Perez Hilton discovers that while everyone has the right to say what they want on the internets, people have the right to react to it. Will.I.Am learns that when you put yourself out in public people will criticize you. Both of them can dish it but the story doesn't lend much validity to them...
I'm not one for violence...however if this story is true...

Jon and Kate Have A "Big Announcement"
Set you DVRs. Monday night. 9 pm. What we have been waiting for since that oh so uncomfortable season premiere. Jon and Kate Gosselin have an announcement. Or so the promo tells us. And keeps telling us, and keeps telling us, and keeps telling us. The show is an hour, so what time is the ...
First things first...the picture you have of Teresa flipping out is scary. Very, very scary.
Moving on...
Am I the only one in thinking Teresa's blow out was completely unnecessary and childish? I mean, the whole scenario was just...odd, but in true RH's fashion, but seriously. What was the point of her flipping out like that just for being told to pay attention?
I know that there are many people who don't like Danielle, I don't, and I thought it was stupid for her to bring the book, but I think stuff would have come up regardless, I still felt bad that she had no one there backing her up until Jacqueline stepped in and yes, thank god for her husband, even though Caroline disappointed me horribly by being so over-dramatic at the end about their mother. I was pretty disgusted by everyone's behavior.
The Real Housewives of New Jersey (Episode 6): Finale
So here we are at the end of a whirlwind six weeks of cat fights and straight up crazy ass bitches. On the one hand, this is the shortest Real Housewives series ever in life on the other hand, I'm pretty sure that the producers were starting to fear for someone's life and so better stop before ...
Will she ever stop opening the door for drama? It's like that shark from the old SNL skits. She keeps answering the door, knowing full and well it's the shark...and opens it everytime.

Lindsay Lohan in The Mystery of the Missing Jewels
Yes I know, it's a lame title that sounds like a direct-to-video B-movie starring Lindsay Lohan and maybe Dirk Benedict as the real thief who frames her (or did he?) but it's not; according to the latest gossip, it's Lindsay's real life. This time the case is not about the Ronson family taking...
Wow Alyssa...I totally agree with what you said. I really disliked Britney before her whole meltdown. I didn't understand how anyone thought she was talented, and why she was so popular. She has a horrible voice...if you consider that a voice, she doesn't write her own songs, and if you listen to the music, it all sounds the same. She just wore a different skanky outfit to make sure everyone just paid attention to that. But then everything started to unravel, and I started to feel really bad for her. Like Lindsay, I felt like all she had were these people around her that were just there because "OMG it's Britney!" and no one really cared about her or her well being. Thank god for her dad, but I think her mom seriously needs to put herself in check. I hope she stays on track, for the sake of her kids. But I think they are going to still have issues regardless of how she changes now.
Remember the photos of her letting SP hold the cigarettes? Let's face it kids, in the lives of celebs, the children always seem to suffer.
Britney Overcorrecting for Bad Parenting by...Spoiling Her Kids Rotten?
TMZ.com's "sources" say that yesterday in London, Britney took Sean Preston and Jayden James on a short little shopping spree at Hamley's, wherein she spent about $1,000 in just minutes, since whatever her boys pointed at went into the cart. The horde of toys filled eight shopping bags. Loo...
I LOATHE these two. LOATHE them. And I will be so sick to my stomach if they have kids.
Heidi and Spencer Pratt Are Getting Eaten Alive on Daytime
I know that we already mentioned them earlier today, but Speidi, the couple who seems incapable of not acting ridiculous when faced with a camera lens, has been at it again. Heidi and Spencer Pratt have taken their co-dependent, sideshow villainy on the road from The Hills and I'm a Celebrity...
Funniest - I grew up on Spaceballs ( uh-huh huh huh huh) I have every line from it memorized. When will then be now? Soon. Blazing Saddles is also another fav...Gotta love Mel Brooks.
Scariest - The Thing and the original Third House on the Left. Scary movies that are about things that can really occur in real life are terrifying.

I can only hope that the loss of his daughter made him refocus his life and he realized life is to short to wait another day.
Agreed. I don't understand why everyone is upset over this. I know it's Mike Tyson and he's done some crappy things in his life, and god knows how long the marriage will last, but I think after such a tragedy he deserves to have some happiness.
Lauren Conrad, Beyonce Knowles, Jon Gosselin, and Mike Tyson: U R Doing It Wrong
Celebs make bad decisions! I know. This isn't that much of a shocker after we've seen Heidi Montag and Spencer Prat tie the knot and Megan Fox talking and Kanye West doing just about anything, but sometimes I think that they forget that they're in public. For instance, do you want to know th...

I have a question concerning this so-called "weave". I was just wondering if he purchased it at a Halloween Express or if he perhaps had a squirrel make it for him?
Thanks.
Stage Scenery Assaults Bret Michaels' Weave
I blame Daisy. "Rock of Love's" Bret Michaels performed with the rest of the Poison gang at the Tonys and after the number was rocked right in the head by a piece of scenery. Is there video you ask? Of course. Michaels was performing with the cast of "Rock of Ages," the only way to explain bo...
The Beatles - In My Life
One of the greatest love songs ever written.
Outkast - Hey Ya
Amazing lyrics. I love the line " If what they say is "nothing lasts forever" then what makes love the exception?" Plus...it's just fun.
Eric Clapton - Layla
:::blushes::: I just adore that song, if you couldn't tell.
Tori Amos - Winter
I love listening to this song with the volume all the way up. It's soooooooooo beautiful
Coldplay - The Scientist
Heartbreaking but awesome.
Schmutzie - Thirteen is great. I just got into Big Star, and I adore them

Now that I think about it though...
I started watching this show after I read about it on here. It is a train wreck, but I just have to watch. I think it stems from having all guy friends, and no ladies around to gossip with.
But I think it's funny how gas prices are going up and people are losing jobs, GM is bankrupt, then you have these people on TV who spend THOUSANDS on clothes for their little girls who will probably wear that stuff once, and ugly bathroom marble, or yes, a car for flunking school.
How many of these shows will they make us watch?
I'm waiting for Real Housewives: Youngstown or Detriot
The Real Housewives of New Jersey (Episode 4): Red & Black and Read All Over
This episode brought the anger in me. Anger that has been covered up by the lure of entertainment and now I'm just frustrated and I don't know what to think. Though I suppose I shouldn't be putting that much thought into a television show which relies on its viewers lack of brain cells. It's t...
I'm not the biggest advocate for Oprah, but I really feel bad for her. She puts all of this money and energy into these schools to help these girls out, and this is what happens? It's not her fault, but it's really making her look bad. It's so sad and disgusting how people take advantage of such a good thing. All these girls wanted was a chance to do something with their lives, and now they have been set further back.
Oprah School Trial Reveals Schocking Details
