No duh. Star Jones finally admits gastric bypass surgery. Really? Not pilates?

Which is more surprising- that Gary Coleman got in a public spat and was cited, or that he lives in Utah?

Seriously. She's not an actress. She's not a singer. She's just annoying.

Ingmar Bergman Dies

I thought he died years ago.


Master filmmaker Ingmar Bergman, one of the greatest artists in cinema history, died Monday at his home on an island off the coast of Sweden. He was 89.

Bergman's dozens of works combined deep seriousness, indelible imagery and unexpected flashes of humor in finely written, inventively shot explorations of difficult subjects such as plague and madness.

His vision encompassed the extremes of his beloved Sweden: the claustrophobic gloom of unending winter nights, its glowing summer evenings and the bleak magnificence of the Baltic islet of Faro, where the reclusive artist spent his last years.

Hollywood Weddings

Steve Martin marries a 35 year old writer at his LA home. Erin and I bought a star map one time, and the house that was supposively Steve Martin's had a Suzuki on blocks. So hopefully, that map was wrong. And if not, hopefully the Suzuki was taken down before the guests arrived.

Aquafina is Tap Water

I drink bottled water only when needed for convenience. I was never under some illusion that it was this fabulous, pure water. So this isnt a surprise:

PepsiCo Inc. will spell out that its Aquafina bottled water is made with tap water, a concession to the growing environmental and political opposition to the bottled water industry.

According to Corporate Accountability International, a U.S. watchdog group, the world's No. 2 beverage company will include the words "Public Water Source" on Aquafina labels.

Walk Away if Oscar the Cat Comes By You

This cute kitty makes rounds at a nursing home, like a feline doctor.

Oscar the cat seems to have an uncanny knack for predicting when nursing home patients are going to die, by curling up next to them during their final hours.

His accuracy, observed in 25 cases, has led the staff to call family members once he has chosen someone. It usually means they have less than four hours to live.


Maybe he's killing them!

They should add him to Grey's Anatomy next season!

Thank You Starbucks For Helping Me Quit You

Uh, another price raise? You're not the post office for Pete's sake. What's with the increases?


Starbucks said Monday it would raise its U.S. prices for lattes, Frappuccinos and other freshly made drinks by nine cents, the second price hike in less than a year.

The Seattle-based coffee retailer blamed rising costs for things including dairy products, energy and fuel for the increase.

In a statement issued after markets closed for regular trading, Starbucks said the price hike will take effect July 31, bumping the cost of most drinks by about 3 percent.


Who are they kidding? For a drink that costs $3.50, about $3 is profit. Must they pass on the .09 increase to the customer?

Daniel Baldwin- Still Spreading His Seed


Yes, I got sucked into "Family Secrets" on Primetime. I don't know why I was watching Daniel Baldwin for a whole hour- he has a huge ego, has been to rehab 9 times (so much so that on family day at recent rehab no one shows up because they're sick of his crap) and has been arrested numerous times. He has kids with each of his two ex-wives, and his longtime girlfriend from Homicide. So sure enough- the rehab cook quits her job, moves in with Daniel and they're expecting. Lovely.

One of the Goldens Dies


No not Bea Arthur. One of Oprah's golden retrievers died in May. She discusses it in the August issues of O Magazine, but is she so stoic that she didn't even mention it on air? (or were they not filming in May? or did I miss it since I don't catch every episode?)

Gracie was one of three puppies Oprah picked from a breeder a couple years ago and had a show about it (in case you were wondering why I know about Opie's dogs).

Baio and Minnelli?

Former HAPPY DAYS star SCOTT BAIO has confirmed age-old rumours LIZA MINNELLI once asked him to impregnate her. The former icon-turned-reality TV star admits he was so flattered, he had to date the Cabaret star. Baio reveals, "She's great. That was one of those things: 'How can I not hang out with her...' She's so iconic."

The show Scott Baio is 45 and Single is on VH-1 tonight.
Also on VH-1 tonight is Poison's Brett Michael's show Rock of Love.
I think both guys have Pam Anderson in common, and probably a few others.

Dogs Don't Heart Mitt Romney

Dogs Against Romney is a blog that I like because it keeps that story alive. The story, if you don't know it, is that presidential candidate Mitt Romney put the family dog on the roof of the car during family vacations. As I commented when I blogged about it the first time, Mitt is either cruel or an idiot. Not what we need for a leader.

Clay in Fight on Airplane

The comments for this story just write themselves:

Clay Aiken was involved in an airplane disturbance with another passenger Saturday while en route to Tulsa International Airport, a newspaper reported.

The dispute on a Continental Airlines flight took place between Aiken, who was traveling Saturday morning to a performance at the Brady Theater, and a woman, the Tulsa World reported for Sunday's editions.

Concertgoers who attended the former "American Idol" singer's show said afterward that Aiken joked on-stage about being beaten up by a girl earlier in the day.

FBI Special Agent Gary Johnson said there was a dispute between a male passenger and a woman on the flight but could not confirm the passenger was Aiken. He said the dispute was over the male passenger's foot resting on the woman's armrest. He said there was an allegation the woman gave the male passenger a "minor shove" during the argument.

"At that point the flight crew was able to resolve the situation," Johnson said.

Tulsa Airport Authority spokeswoman Alexis Higgins said the passengers were held until FBI agents arrived to interview them. No injuries were reported and no arrests were made.
