Tom Brady and Gisele Bundchen Shotgun Wedding – Photos

It was literally a wedding crawling with armed bodyguards. Tom Brady and Gisele Bundchen had a second wedding that was held in Costa Rica and paparazzi were not welcome.

The couple’s body guards opened fire on photogs after a spat had broken out earlier. A few friends of Tom’s and members of the their security had gotten into an argument with the encroaching paparazzi just moments before a gunshots were fired. A bullet hit the rear window and shattered the glass. It had barely missed two photographers.

INF photo agency had sent Rolando Aviles and Yuri Cortez to the second set of nuptials in Santa Teresa. As they were spotted around 300 feet away from ceremony, the body guards started to chase them. According to Aviles he and his friend were cornered at their SUV and asked to come back and have a chat with Brady. Being really gullible or just plain daft, he and his photog friend went back to Gisele’s home. As they walked in Tom’s groomsmen and the body guards surrounded them.

Per the NY Post:

“Take a picture of me now, you f- – -er! F- – - you,” Brady’s righthand man, whose name was not immediately known, screamed, according to Aviles. “He was very angry. It looked like he wanted to attack us,” Aviles said. The photographers lied their way out of the tight spot — saying they hadn’t taken a single frame.”

The photo hungry paps then left to return to their car. As they started to drive away someone fired into the rear of the vehicle.

“Thank God I’m all right. At that moment, I thought I was going to die,” lensman Rolando Aviles told The Post. “The bullet went between us, missing our heads. If the bullet been a little more to the left or right, it would have killed one of us. I said, ‘They’re going to kill us,’ and that’s when I hunched down to cover myself.”

Holy overreaction Batman!

Samantha Ronson Kicks Out Lindsay Lohan – Photos

Is Lindsay Lohan officially out on her tush? Looks like it! After another one of their nuclear fights last Thursday night at Chateau Marmont where police were called to break up the argument, Samantha Ronson had the locks at her home changed on Friday and Lindsay barred from a private party for her sister Charlotte later that night.

The doorman at the party were apparently under strict instructions by the Ronson family to not let Lindsay in under any circumstances, and they went to great lengths to make sure that happened. Lindsay did indeed show up to the party, but only to be restrained from entering by 5 security guards. Onlookers say that she threw a big hissy fit when she was denied entry.

Via TMZ and NZHerald:

“On Saturday, paps spot a locksmith at Sam’s apartment, changing the locks on the front door.”

“Lindsay was shouting, ‘But you’ve all known me for so long’ to the staff. She was furious and caused a big scene.” says an onlooker. “Everyone at the party was gossiping about the ban. It was hugely humiliating.”

Despite the drama, Sam kept busy with her music as their mom Ann Dexter-Jones snapped photos and brother Mark helped provide the tunes. Sources say that Samantha is not returning any of Lindsays phone calls and its leaving her heartbroken. Lindsay last week had assured reporters that she and Ronson had not broken up. Perhaps someone forgot to tell her?

CMA Awards 2009 Winners List, Photos and Video

[Carrie Underwood - I Told You So - 2009 CMA Awards]

The 44th Annual Academy of Country Music Awards were held last night. Surprisingly there was a lot of great style going on. (Yes, I know it’s about music dear Cara, not dresses. But I can’t help myself.) Stars of the country world came out in full force and poor Jessica Simpson was robbed of her country glory. *Please note sarcasm and the my inability to type that with a straight face.

[Miley Cyrus- The Climb - CMA Awards 2009]

Carrie Underwood did clean up in the awards department taking home the accolades for Entertainer of the Year and Top Female Vocalist. I am sure LeAnn Rimes is already telling everyone who will listen that Carrie slept with 6 members of the academy and that’s the only reason she won. I believe it was last year or perhaps the year before Rimes took to her blog to rant about how Underwood didn’t deserve her winnings. Regardless, it was a gorgeous night filled with enough glitter and cowboy boots to make the musical rodeo hosted by Reba McEntire a hit.

Michelle Obama’s Prague Fashion Redemption

So I have to address the Michelle Obama sweater-gate that took place a few days ago. Several of you loved her argyle/sequins combo while others, like myself, hated it and found it an odd choice to wear to meet the royalty and fellow country running comrades. I hold to that opinion. However, I am First Lady Obama fan so….

I post this in a peace offering. The jet-set First Lady flew to Prague after making a stop in France to visit Carla Bruni. During the flight to her next destination, Michelle busted out a body hugging black dress and black cropped cardigan that boasted three quarter sleeves.

Redemption at it’s finest. It was simple and appropriate travel wear. Obama also sported her favorite kitten heels. Upgrade. It was a bit different for her. She isn’t afraid of color, which I do (believe it or not) adore about her, but this flight friendly style was demure and (forgive me if conservatives) sexy.

Michelle Obama Invited to ‘30 Rock’

Alec Baldwin wants himself a piece of the Presidential Power Couple. The Baldwin Brother is after Michelle Obama. He told the gossip purveyors over at Hollyscoop that he’d love to have The First Lady on “30 Rock.”

“I would like Michelle Obama on 30 Rock. The President is on TV every day, all day. So we want to get something different.”

He also teased about a romantic plotline….

“I think my character falls in love with Michelle Obama, of course.” He jokingly added, “You know, if it doesn’t work out with Barack …”

I would love to see this happen. It would totally kick Jennifer Aniston’s guest star episode’s ass. (Provided episodes have buttocks.)

Iowa Supreme Court Allows Gay Marriage!

I know that I sound like Elle Woods giving ‘snaps’ out for good-doing, but I could help but raise my morning martini (what… I put fruit in it) in celebration of Iowa.

Today, the “Food Capital” realized that the gay marriage ban was ridiculous and overturned the ancient law.

Via Des Moines Register:

“The Iowa Supreme Court issued a unanimous ruling Friday finding that the state’s same-sex marriage ban violates the constitutional rights of gay and lesbian couples, making Iowa the third state where marriage is legal.”

So cheers to Iowa!

What Others Said:

Dlisted - “You know, when I first saw Austin Scarlett’s corn husk dress on Project Runway, I knew this would be the perfect ensemble for Mah Boo Anderson Cooper to wear to our wedding. It goes with the dazzling silver field on his head.”

‘Sex and the City’ Release Date Confirmed

Time for me to break out my Manolo Blahnik’s again–I am going to be getting more sex! “Sex and the City” that is!! Carrie, Samantha, Charolette and Miranda are going to be at a theatre near you on May 28, 2010, according to Variety.

Its biggest competition will the “Prince of Persia” game to movie film starring Jake Gyllenhaal and Ben Kingsley, and apparently some untitled romantic comedy starring our favorite Drama Queen Katherine Heigl and Ashton Kutcher (really?? REALLY??). So, obviously NO competition for this movie.

The bigger question in my mind is that the series as centered on Carrie’s romantic misfires, with Big, Aiden and Petrovski. With Carrie being married and happily settled, will this sequel have the same feel as the TV show and first movie? I am skeptical but willing to be open minded. Maybe the producers could send me some designer handbags and shoes. My skepticism seems to disappear with free swag. Just sayin’.

Madonna’s Malawi Adoption Rejected

Madonna was told today that her bid to adopt 3 year old Chifundo James, translated to Mercy James, has been rejected by Malawi High Court Judge Esme Chombo. It seems residency requirement is keeping Madge from taking home Mercy. Prospective adoptive parents are required to spend 18-24 months in Malawi before being able to go forward with an adoption. Obviously, Madonna has not spent that kind of time there. A judge denied the adoption stating several reasons for the

Per BBC:

“I must decline to grant the application for the adoption of the infant. By removing the very safeguard that is supposed to protect our children, the courts by their pronouncements could actually facilitate trafficking of children by some unscrupulous individuals. It is evident that Chifundo James no longer is subject to the conditions of poverty at her place of birth.”

Following five days of hearings, Judge Chombo made her official ruling. According to a witness, the judge said during the ruling that social workers need to look for more than “someone who just flies in and out” when looking for a fitting family. Madonna was not present at the ruling but was later told by her lawyer.

The Material Girl has been in Malawi for nearly a week with her three other children awaiting word on adopting Mercy. Her Malawian lawyer, Alan Chinula, has reportedly been working for the past 18 months to skirt the 18-24 month residency requirements. Madge even threw a party before the ruling on her application was made. Her lawyer says Madonna plans to appeal the decision.

I don’t see Madge giving up so easily. She has homes in New York and London… who’s to say she won’t set up a home in Malawi until her adoption request is finally granted?

Twilight Takes Over Religion – Edward is the New Xenu

Attention Twi-Hards: there is a fine line between cute obsession and complete and total lunacy, and some of us have crossed that line.

According to sources, a group of “Twilight” fans have started their own religion based on Stephenie Meyer’s vampire-love book series. Xenu beware!

The followers of this ‘religion’ refer to themselves as “Cullenists” and, like any religion, they have their own set of beliefs and rules that should be followed. These rules are based on the belief that the Cullens (the surname of the vampire family in the books) are in fact, real.

Via Examiner.com:

“Their creed includes a base set of beliefs that Edward and the rest of the ‘Twilight’ characters are real; that the ‘Twilight’ series should be worshipped and that if you are good in life, you will be bless[ed] with eternity with the Cullens.”

Question: are we really interested in eternity with the Cullens or with Robert Pattinson? Spending eternity with Edward Cullen sounds nice, but if we have to throw in Rosalie, I am out.

Cullenists also believe that the “Twilight” series should be read daily like a Bible and followers should make a pilgrimage to the small town of Forks, Washington during their lifetime. I am sure the good people of Forks are rejoicing.

All of us here at Hollywood Dame love “Twilight.” Not to mention, we would all like to go a few rounds with Robert Pattinson and the rest of the male cast members of the movie for that matter. However, this is too much. People are crossing the line here. Enjoy the books and the movie; spin your own fantasies involving Sparklepants and Peter Facinelli. Mine involves a lot of wine and a large bathtub. But leave it at that.

Now, if you’ll excuse me I have a plane to catch. I am spending spring break in Washington and Vancouver to, um, see the sights. Yes! That’s it, sight-seeing.
