Brilliant

On tonight's MTV Movie Awards, Bruno (Sacha Baron Cohen aka Borat), flew in on wings and as he was being lowered his butt ended up on Eminem's face.

But it was the outrageous Cohen, promoting his upcoming movie "Bruno" in which the British actor plays a gay Austrian fashionista, who brought the house down.

Sweeping high above the studio on a harness, Cohen hit an obstacle, spun down toward the audience and landed face down in the lap of Eminem, exposing his naked bottom to both the white rapper and to millions of viewers watching the awards show live on television.

MTV said Eminem stormed out "in a heated rage" after the incident at the Gibson Amphitheatre near Los Angeles where the live awards show was taking place.

I thought Eminem was in on it because I didn't understand how Bruno was able to aim perfectly, and I would think Eminem would've moved when he saw Bruno dropping.

Last Titanic Survivor Dies

Millvina Dean, who as a baby was wrapped in a sack and lowered into a lifeboat in the frigid North Atlantic, died Sunday, having been the last survivor of 1912 sinking of the RMS Titanic.

She was 97 years old, and she died where she had lived — in Southampton, England, the city her family had tried to leave behind when it took the ship's ill-fated maiden voyage, bound for America.

She died in her sleep early Sunday, her friend Gunter Babler told the Associated Press. It was the 98th anniversary of the launch of the ship that was billed as "practically unsinkable."

No Surprise- Susan Boyle Doesn't Win

Susan Boyle got second in Britain's Got Talent.

Street dancers Diversity were the surprise winners of television contest "Britain's Got Talent" on Saturday, beating favorite Susan Boyle who became an Internet phenomenon and global celebrity after appearing on the show.

Diversity's semi final performance.

Diversity's final performance.

Flawless, the other dance act.

Susan Boyle's final performance.

Diversity's good, but it's like what you can see on America's Best Dance Crew.

I would guess most of the voters would be younger, and wouldn't vote for Boyle. Also, part of her appeal is that people thought she looked dumpy and then she could sing. Doesn't mean her singing is the best act.

She'll get a recording contract, so the result of the competition probably doesn't matter.

The Tonight Show- Last Night

Like I've said before, I am not a regular viewer of The Tonight Show. I watched last night to see Prince, and out of curiosity to what they're doing for Leno's last days (which is just weird since he's going to 10pm, and just says to guests "visit me at 10").

I did see Billy Crystal's interview where he talked at length about his back and hip injury. Then later, after Crystal sings a tribute to Leno, Leno goes over and picks up Crystal and starts bouncing. Finally Crystal is released from his clutches and you can see that Crystal says "my back" and grabs his back. Half joking, and probably half serious. Wasn't Leno listening to the back injury story? It was awkward.

Also odd- after Prince performed, he walked over to a big pad of paper, like in conference rooms before dry erase, writes something, rips it off and hands it to Leno. Leno reads it, thanks him and then says he's going to go put it up. It took some straining to read what Prince wrote, but it was something like this:

Leno is the best, even Paul Schaffer knows

Huh???

TMZ has a clip.

Was Mancow Not Really Waterboarded?

Gawker has several emails that imply the Mancow waterboarding could've been staged. Although, emails would be easy to fake.

My first thought was- how could it be a hoax if he was really under water?

But then I remembered that when I watched the video the first time I had a couple thoughts:

1) The person performing the waterboarding didn't look like he knew what he was doing. Mancow had to tell the guy to plug his (Mancow's) nose before pouring the water.

2) At some point the guy is pouring water on Mancow's chin. How is that waterboarding? Trying to drown his pores?

Keith Olbermann donated money to charity after this, so I'll be curious what he says about it.

Also- Mancow is a conservative who thought waterboarding wasn't torture, so it doesn't support his cause to fake waterboarding and then say it is torture.

How about if we all just forget about Mancow? Sounds good to me!

Two More Days of Leno Taking Us Down Boring Memory Lane

I don't watch Leno. Maybe if there is some guest that is interesting. I caught it last night because I wanted to see Wanda Sykes. So I saw the reminiscing that Leno was doing about his 17 years on the Tonight Show and it reminded me why I prefer Letterman.

Friday is Leno's last day. Conan starts next week. Pearl Jam, who I had heard wouldn't do the Tonight Show in the past (something to do with the house band insisting on playing too), will be on Conan's first show. Seems like a bit of a slam to Leno.

Radio DJ Waterboarded

Mancow, a radio DJ who didn't think waterboarding was torture, changed his mind after being drenched with water- for 7 seconds.



Sean Hannity later called Mancow and told him it wasn't torture. Not sure why Hannity is continuing with that talking point.

Keith Olbermann has long pledged to donate $1,000 to charity for every second Sean Hannity lasted being waterboarded, since Hannity said he would do it (this was a month ago). Hannity has yet to do it, and Olbermann gave $10,000 to charity after Mancow's stunt.

Were You One of the 9.8 Million Viewers?

More on me thinking Kate Gosselin has had breast surgery in a minute.

But first, the ratings for last night's Jon and Kate Plus 8 were huge- 9.8 Million.

To compare: the season finale of Lost attracted less viewers, at 9.2 million.

In the 18 to 34 demo, the premiere had 3.1 million viewers -- No. 2 to just the American Idol finale.

The premiere doubled the Season 4 finale of Jon & Kate, which had 4.6 million viewers.

I flipped it on for a minute. Kate has the most annoying voice, is complainer, and actually said that one of her children called her by their nannies name.

Uh, I wouldn't tell that to an audience that already doesn't think you're home enough.

Jon looked haggard, and made somewhat conflicting statements- he didn't cheat, but he wanted to apologize to his family. Statements Kate made, such as about being angry, make it seem like something happened.

I really only watched for a few minutes. She is intolerable.

Prop. 8 Stays

The California court voted 6-1 to uphold Prop. 8, which means gays can't legally get married in California.

You probably remember that the same Californians that voted for Obama as president, voted against gays.

Does it seem weird to anyone else that the general public voted on whether people could get married?

Memorial Day

Yes, I know it was yesterday.

The Hypocrisy

Catholics can't use birth control (I guess they'll go to Hell if they do?), but I thought pre-marital sex was wrong as well? AND Divorce?

Mel Gibson, a Catholic with a bunch of children, is expecting a child with his girlfriend. Rumor is his wife filed for divorce (they were separated for a few years) after hearing this news.

This probably explains why Mel was so quick to get his girlfriend out on the red carpet. Once word got out about the pregnancy, there would be paparazzi trying to get them photographed together.

Mel shares the pregnancy news on The Tonight Show tonight.

Shows Not Returning

CBS has canceled long-running military action-drama "The Unit" and veteran crime drama "Without a Trace," and NBC is putting an end to Thursday night comedy mainstay "My Name Is Earl" and thriller "Medium." The moves come after late-in-the-game saves for relatively new fan favorites like NBC's "Chuck" and Fox's "Dollhouse."

There's some potential silver lining -- "Medium" producer CBS TV Studios is close to setting the show on CBS, while "Earl" studio 20th TV is talking to Fox and ABC about one of the networks possibly picking up the comedy.

And hours after 20th TV-produced "The Unit" was canceled, the studio's syndication arm, Twentieth TV, announced that the military drama starring Dennis Haysbert has been sold in syndication for a fall 2010 launch.

In the wake of NBC's cancellation of "Medium," CBS Studios issued a statement blasting the network about its decision and the way it was handled.

"NBC's cancellation of 'Medium' is inexplicable to us," the statement said. "The ratings don't lie: 'Medium' outperforms many of NBC's renewed shows."

Other shows are Samantha Who?, which I've seen once and I thought it was ok for those type of shows, Without a Trace, and King of the Hill which I didn't know was still on. New shows cancelled are Kath & Kim, In the Motherhood and Sit Down Shut Up which I don't know what it is. List here.

Oy. Back On.

Sean Penn's mid-life crisis continues as he has yet again asked for a dismissal of the separation papers he filed. The couple went thru this routine about a year ago.

Dumb Republican Trifecta

First up- Glenn Beck on The View today.

I'm not just saying that Glenn Beck is a moron because we aren't the same politically. He really is stupid. If you get Barbara Walters, who tries painfully to play all sides, to argue against you, then you aren't too bright.

Watch him squirm

Next- Newt Gingrich on The Daily Show last night.

Dang, he was giggly. All jolly. Making no sense of course, but jolly all the same.
Newt is trying to make a comeback, and he's using the Pelosi situation as his way to do it.

Newt thinks Pelosi should step down, and Jon Stewart asks Newt if he requested other people's resignation (like other repubs) when they spoke out against the CIA. Gee, that'd be a big fat no.

Lost- As predicted, it would get blown up at the very end.

Prison Break- Ending totally sucked.

24- This was on last night. It was ok. They could've brought the Silver Fox back from the dead, that would've made it better. Even if he is wearing a mock turtleneck.

NOOOOO!!!

They're remaking Footloose. With Chace Crawford, that Gossip Girl dude.

Listen, it's not like they're remaking Grease. But it really isn't necessary. Just rent the original, the music is brill.

Unless they dust off Bonnie Tyler and Kenny Loggins, there really isn't a point.

Ventura vs. Hasselbutt

Here's a link to Jesse Ventura and Elizabeth Hasselbutt on The View that I mentioned yesterday, talking about waterboarding.

Notice when Hasselbutt is losing the discussion, she makes a joke.

Dog Protects Mom on Busy Street

First let me say- both dogs live.

Second, I have to say I did see this story on Inside Edition. I think I was flipping thru, saw an animal story was coming up and stayed to watch. Yes, I am defensive that I was watching Inside Edition!

Here's the poop:

A dog is hit on a Bronx expressway. Another dog, which turns out to be her son, protects his mama when anyone tried to come near.

Rescue workers get both dogs off the street, and the mom to the vet.

Watch it here.

Inside Edition did interview the owner of both dogs, but they didn't ask him why his dogs were running in the street.

They have photos of the dogs reunited here.

Look how devoted these animals are. Makes ya feel bad 3 million are put down in shelters each year, huh?

Good Republican Soldier

Once again, Elizabeth Hasselback shown that she must've gotten her latest copy of the Repubs talking points memo.

Jesse Ventura was on The View today, and when the discussion turned to torture and waterboarding (something Ventura has experienced), Elizabeth's first question to him was "what do you think of Nancy Pelosi lying?"

You have got to be kidding me. Trying to deflect from the people that authorized torture to Nancy Pelosi?

When Jesse mentioned that torture was illegal, Elizabeth tried to say that it was authorized, to which Jesse said "by who?" It seems like Elizabeth doesn't understand our agreement not to torture, and that just because Bush or Cheney authorize it doesn't make it legal (this is sounding like Nixon- 'when the President does it it isn't illegal').

Elizabeth said something about how it wasn't torture, it was 'enhanced interrogations', and Ventura told her Cheney just changed the word.

Ventura said he would prosecute and put in jail anyone that authorized the torture, and Elizabeth asked if he would prosecute Obama for authorizing the killing of the Somali pirates.

Dang. She really is annoying.

Oh Reeg

Survivor winner JT was on Regis and Kelly today, and after pronouncing Tocantins, the location of Survivor, Regis asked JT about the origins of the name "what is that? Is that English?"

JT said he thought it was Portuguese.

English? Since when is Tocantins, pronounced Taw-kahn-teens, English? It's in Brazil! Oy.

Regis and Larry King should have a show together.

Survivor Finale- JT Wins

No surprise, JT (second from left) easily wins Survivor with an unanimous vote. Stephen, his buddy and runner-up, showed himself to be a bit odd, I thought.

When it was down to the final three, and Jeff Probst was asking JT who he was going to take with him to the finals, since he won individual immunity, JT was weighing both sides. Stephen (on the left), was pleading his case, saying JT and him have been talking about final two since the beginning. And Stephen said (paraphrasing) "what about breakfast on day 39?". Jeff Probst made fun of it, saying JT is going to pick breakfast with Stephen over picking Erin which is almost a guarantee $1 million?

Then, when it was down to JT and Stephen, one of the jury members asked Stephen if he would've taken JT to the final two. And Stephen said he wasn't sure, and he hoped he would, but it probably would've been Erin. What about breakfast on day 39?

Survivor Finale

Usually, the final two or three consists of a player who hasn't done much the whole season (or they did and it was edited out). This person somehow manages to win the final endurance competition and gets in the finals. Happens just about every season. And I predict tonight it will be Erin.

Seems likely JT will win the whole thing unless they get him out.

Farrah Fawcett is All Sorts of Awesome

How cool for Farrah Fawcett to let herself be taped with no hair. She had some bangs, but she had shaved off the rest of her hair after it was falling out from chemotherapy.

Farrah's Story is a documentary about Farrah's fight to beat cancer. She travels to Germany for intense treatment, and also takes on UCLA after one of their employees allegedly sold her medical info to a tabloid.

It was sad, but it was also inspiring.

As a Kid I Was Always Sabrina

Anyways, here is the fabulous Kate "Sabrina" Jackson, talking about the lawsuit surrounding Farrah's documentary (which airs tonight...have tissue handy).

Lost

Maybe this story about the Lost finale will help me understand it.

One thing I didn't understand- they wanted to blow up the island. When the bomb didn't go off and Juliet was being pulled in, why were they freaking out? They were expecting to die.

How did they know that wasn't the way it was going to happen?

"Why Were You Fired?" "For Peeing in Old Faithful"

Oy.

Two seasonal Yellowstone National Park concession workers have been fired after a live webcam caught them urinating into the Old Faithful geyser.

Park spokesman Al Nash says a 23-year-old man on Tuesday was fined $750 and placed on three years of unsupervised probation for urinating, being off trail in a restricted area and taking items from the area. The man also was banned from Yellowstone for two years.

The second employee's case is pending.

The park's dispatch center was called after someone watching a webcam on the geyser saw six employees leaving the trail and walking on Old Faithful on May 4.

The geyser was not erupting at the time.

Xanterra Parks & Resorts general manager Jim McCaleb says the former concession workers were hired at the Old Faithful Inn and that such incidents were rare.

Lost Finale...Oy

Some of you are probably too young to remember Dallas. Bobby died, but they brought him back when Pam, his wife, saw him in the shower. It was all a dream.

With the bomb going off, we can assume next season will be about Lost landing at LAX. And the whole time on the island never happened.

That just seems blah.

Am I Really Reporting on Jon and Kate?

I haven't seen a ton of these shows, but from what I've seen, Kate looks like she can barely stand Jon. In the scenes where they are sitting on the couch, she can barely contain her disdain, and he looks less than enthused. Rumors of marriage problems were no surprise to any observant person watching that show.

Now Kate's brother is confirming they are breaking up.

I know you shouldn't be in a marriage if you don't want to, but how bad would Jon have to be (at least, to her) that you would rather be a single mother of EIGHT CHILDREN, than to be married to him?

Twins!

Wanda Sykes joins the Hollywood Twins Club. Her wife gave birth to Olivia Lou and Lucas Claude.

Lost Finale

For the love of Pete I hope they clarify some things. Although at this point I am so confused I don't know what they could do that would make me understand. I just don't get time travel.

Daniel was shot in the past by his mother, before she had him as a child. Heh? The guy with the eyeliner is always the same age no matter what year. There are two John Lockes. Jack's dad is hanging around. And there's a polar bear somewhere.

Here are 5 mysteries Lost should answer.

My only guess is that Claire will probably show up.

I Probably Shouldn't Have Laughed

But this story from the AP was funny. The bold is mine:

Headline: Rotten office fridge cleanup sends 7 to hospital

An office worker cleaning a fridge full of rotten food created a smell so noxious that it sent seven co-workers to the hospital and made many others ill. Firefighters had to evacuate the AT&T building in downtown San Jose on Tuesday, after the flagrant fumes prompted someone to call 911. A hazmat team was called in.

What they found was an unplugged refrigerator that had been crammed with moldy food.

Authorities said an enterprising office worker had decided to clean it out, placing the food in a conference room while using two cleaning chemicals to scrub down the mess. The mixture of old lunches and disinfectant caused 28 people to need treatment for vomiting and nausea.
Authorities said the worker who cleaned the fridge didn't need treatment — she can't smell because of allergies.

I'm assuming it was her inability to smell that caused her to put food in the conference room and not in the garbage.

But, as anyone who has worked in an office knows, no one wants to clean up the fridge. I've worked in places where they send threatening emails if you don't get all your stuff out on clean-up day. They toss anything in there, they don't care what it is. I guess that's how you prevent nausea-inducing office fridges.

How Stupid is That Miss California Thing?

I'm sure Donald loves all of this.

He got to decide whether or not Miss California gets to keep her crown. Miss California is the one who, during a Miss USA pageant question, said she was against gay marriage. As many have pointed out, probably every male she deals with at pageants is gay (yes, generalizing).

After that comment, Miss California was called out by the Miss California officials for not being available for engagements. Also, pseudo-topless photos surfaced.

Donald held a press conference today to announce his decision as to whether or not she was getting the boot. Nothing about Miss California made me think Donald would make her give up her crown. Besides, a year or so ago one of the Miss Whatevers was a big partier and she got to keep her crown. I think he just sent her to rehab.

Hey maybe Miss California can go to moron rehab?

Dr. Oz Gets Hit By Child He Saved

So funny.

Today Oprah said goodbye to Dr. Oz. He is going the way of Dr. Phil and getting his own show. She showed clips from his five years on her show, including the Hurricane Katrina show where Dr. Oz helped a tiny baby.

Well, Oprah brought the baby, now 3, out on stage, surprising Dr. Oz. Dr. Oz is so excited, gets down on the ground to hug the child, a whack- the boy hits Dr. Oz with his teddy bear.

Unphased, Dr. Oz picks up the child and hugs and kisses him.

What's the Dealio?

With Kate Gosselin's hair?

She was on Rachael Ray today. I wouldn't normally watch this show, but I wanted to see what Kate had to say (see- the bad press works!). She looks a bit icy. She isn't saying much about all the rumors.

Anyways, that hair. It's striped, it's tall in the back. It's very 90's or something. Where have I seen this hair before?

White House Correspondents Dinner

Wanda is getting heat, even from Keith Olbermann, for the 9/11 joke. I'm sure that's going exactly to her plan. Not that she's conniving, but this is her moment. And now we're talking about it.

Of course, the repubs are saying Obama was laughing during the joke. I'm sure there has to be footage of whether he did or not. But either way, it doesn't matter. Even if he did laugh, at those things you laugh before you even heard the full joke.





Who is the lady with the crazy hair next to the podium?

Mia Farrow Ends Hunger Strike

And Richard Branson is taking over for three days.

Farrow ended her fast Friday after advice from a doctor. British tycoon Richard Branson said he would take over Farrow's fast for three days in a gesture of solidarity with the humanitarian activist.

"I have been instructed by my doctor to stop my fast immediately due to health concerns including possible seizures," Farrow said on her website.

"I am fortunate. The women, children, and men I am fasting for do not have that option."

Farrow said she hoped other figures would step forward to fast for Darfur until humanitarian agencies expelled from the region in March were readmitted.

Branson said he was happy to follow in Farrow's footsteps.

"I'm honored to be taking over the fast for the next three days from Mia Farrow in her courageous stance to support the people of Darfur," he said in a statement.

Oprah Asks KFC President: What Did You Think Would Happen?

After asking that, Oprah had a smile like "don't you know who I am?"

The President of KFC, who by the way sounds like an Aussie (I was expecting something Kentucky-like), said they were expecting a big response but not what they got.

Apparently no one at KFC ran this by any woman who watches Oprah. And apparently KFC is out of touch with what is happening in real America.

Jokingly Oprah says "America's hungry!" Well, yeah. But not funny.

Doh! Looks like everyone that downloaded it on Tuesday has the same barcode. That has to be a mistake.

From Oprah.com

If you have concerns about using multiple coupons with the same code number:

* All the PDF coupons downloaded from Oprah.com on the evening of May 5 have the same bar code.
* Subject to the terms and conditions of the coupon and instructions on Oprah.com, these coupons will be accepted by participating KFC restaurants in the U.S.

Hold Everything- The Chicken is Back On, BUT...

They are going to stagger the coupons. So you have to get a rain check and they will mail you a coupon. Did they factor in postage when they came up with this idea?

Whomever their publicity rep is should've made sure the rain check info was released along with saying it was cancelled (and maybe it was, and the media said cancelled, who knows). And maybe KFC never said cancelled in the first place. But I'm thinking some mini riots were starting when people thought their chicken was cancelled.

The President of KFC was on Oprah today explaining the rain checks, and you can read about it here on their website. I would think mailing it in vs. handing it to the KFC manager, is the better way to go.

They should just drop KFC from the sky, let everyone run around like crazy people, and call it a day.

The Chicken is Cancelled!

In a super dumb marketing move, KFC has cancelled the free chicken.

Hey KFC- since you're probably looking for a new Marketing Director, give me a shout. I'd have to make sure people aren't throwing chickens against a wall, of course.

Roger Eaton, president of KFC in the United States said restaurants would no longer accept the free coupons for its new grilled chicken meal after Oprah's chat show promotion caused long lines around the nation.

"The lines of customers wanting to redeem their coupons have been out the door and around the block, so we're unable to redeem customer coupons at this time." Eaton said in a statement issued late Thursday.

KFC said millions of Americans had downloaded free coupons after the offer was featured on "The Oprah Winfrey Show" and Web site on Tuesday, driving traffic to levels unseen in the brand's 50-year history.

Eaton apologized to customers for the cancellation of the scheme and said those who already had a coupon could get a rain check form to enable them to use it at a later date.

What kind of bonehead at KFC didn't know the power of Oprah? It's not like they announced it on the Jimmy Fallon show. Oprah.

KFC does mention a rain check, but doesn't say what it would be for, or when. They probably haven't pulled it out of their butts yet.

Tonight- The Fashion Show

Project Runway went to Lifetime, so Bravo replaced it with The Fashion Show. Isaac Mizrahi is the Michael Kors, and Kelly Rowland from Destinys Child is the Heidi Klum.

Rumor- Farrah Fawcett Not Doing Well

Well, I don't know if it's a rumor if Ryan O'Neal says it, but that's how I'll classify it for now.

I think I speak for every girl of the 70's that this is just sad. I had to be Kate Jackson when we played Charlie's Angels, but I don't hold that against Farrah.

Actor Ryan O'Neal has told People magazine that his companion Farrah Fawcett, who has battled cancer for nearly three years, is now bed-ridden, bereft of her famous blonde hair and near the end of medical treatment.

"She stays in bed now. The doctors see that she is comfortable. Farrah is on IVs, but some of that is for nourishment. The treatment has pretty much ended," O'Neal told People in an interview on the magazine's website on Thursday.

Fawcett, 62, became an international sex symbol in the 1970s for her famous swimsuit poster and her role as one of a trio of female private detectives on the hit television show "Charlie's Angels."

She has stayed in the Hollywood spotlight ever since, and in September 2006 was diagnosed with anal cancer. Four months later, she declared herself cancer free, but the disease returned in May 2007.

Kiefer Head Butted a Designer

Thinking he's Jack Bauer, Kiefer head butted a designer. He thought the designer disrespected Brooke Shields. Um, I think Brooke has her personal defense system with those eyebrows.

Jack surrendered to the police. Ha! I called him Jack. I mean Kiefer. He has a DUI, so I don't know how this arrest affects that charge.

Kiefer Sutherland was charged Thursday with misdemeanor assault for allegedly headbutting a fashion designer at a New York party.

Wearing a black overcoat and carrying an umbrella, the 24 star, 42, turned himself in at about 4 p.m. at the First Precinct, where he was arrested on the third-degree assault charge.

After he was photographed and fingerprinted, Sutherland walked out of the precinct at about 6 p.m. accompanied by his Los Angeles lawyer, Blair Berk. He didn't answer reporters' questions but waved to the crowd of photographers before getting into a black town car and driving off.

Sutherland is expected within a month to appear before a judge in Manhattan Criminal Court to answer to the misdemeanor, which is punishable by a fine of as much as $1,000 and up to a year in jail.

Sutherland allegedly headbutted designer Jack McCollough during a scuffle early Tuesday morning. Sutherland allegedly got physical with McCollough after the designer bumped into fellow party guest Brooke Shields.

Los Angeles authorities said they intend to investigate whether Sutherland violated probation for his second DUI conviction in 2007 for which he served seven weeks in jail. If so, he could face additional jail time.

I didn't think he would do it, but he pulled the old Lindsey Lohan hospitalization excuse.

As The "Tonight Show" host prepares to move into primetime, Leno, 58, tells PEOPLE exclusively the cause of his two days of hospitalization that forced him to take his first sick days in 17 years, canceling two shows.

"Exhaustion," he said Friday, shaking his head. He added jokingly, "That's like a rich person's condition. Poor people that work — they don't get exhausted. Only rich people get exhausted. It's an embarrassing thing."

It is possible that regular people get exhausted but don't have the money or luxury to be hospitalized. Maybe they should just let whomever is exhausted to just go lay down somewhere for a day. People might be nicer to their family!

Weight This N That

Anyone else sick of celebs gaining and losing weight and using it for publicity?

Model Kathy Ireland unheard of for years, is now back in the public eye for losing weight.


Kirstie Alley was on Oprah last week, probably at her heaviest. She is developing a weight loss line to crack the code. The weight loss code. Oh, ok.


And now Jessica Simpson is on the cover of Vanity Fair with a caption that says "You Call This Fat?" No, actually, we don't. That's a pic of her after losing weight. See how that works?
