Michael Jackson Memorial – Video

For those of you who are loyal to our site, you may have noticed a lull this past week. As we posted, two of the Dames had computers that decided to spontaneously combust on the eve of Michael Jackson’s Memorial. Therefore, we missed covering it for you. A thousand apologies.

In case you are the one (and there was only one) who missed the memorial, we have included the video here. The memorial was quite moving and featured performances by Mariah Carey, Jennifer Hudson, Usher, Stevie Wonder, and my personal favorite, Lionel Richie. There were also tributes paid to Jackson by his friends such as Motown Records founder Barry Gordy and Queen Latifiah.

Needless to say, the most moving moment of the service was when Michael’s daughter, Paris, spoke to the crowd both at the Staples Center, and the nearly one billion viewers at home. Her goodbye to her father was heart-wrenching, and her words: “I just wanted to say I love him so much,” left us all teary-eyed.

Robert Pattinson Shows Off His Real Body – Photos

July 9, 2009 By 1 Comment

Remember when Robert Pattinson was prancing gracefully around Italy topless? Ah yes, Kittens. You didn’t forget. You know you have one of the those pics saved as the wallpaper on your computer right now. And then we had to go and spoil it for you with this story about how his abs were airbrushed onto him through the beauty of make-up magic.

Never fret. I know what you want. You want to know what he REALLY looks like beneth those layers of Fruit-of-the-Loom t-shirts and torn plaid button downs. And thankfully the good folks at US Weekly have heard our cry…and received all those nasty emails I sent about the lack of semi-nude photos of Sparklepants in their publication.

Via US Weekly:

“The ‘Twilight’ star, 23, shows off his abs and smiles in one of the pics, originally taken for ‘Rolling Stone’. In another, he runs his hands through his famous hair while brooding.”

Most importantly, someone on that set had the good sense to dump a bucket of water on Pattinson as well showing us what he would look like if he were caught in a rain storm…or locked in my shower.

Enjoy the pics kittens and try not to drool on your computers (I’m pretty sure that’s why The Dame’s computer started shooting sparks last week).

Kristen Stewart Pregnant With Robert Pattinson’s Baby?!?

July 7, 2009 By 6 Comments

kristen_stewart_pregnant_by_robert_pattinson

Some girls get knocked-up by all the right guys…that is, if you believe New Weekly magazine. According to the publication, ‘Twilight’ stars Robert Pattinson and Kristen Stewart are really getting into character for the fourth installment of the vampire series-by expecting a baby together.

Via Gossip Teen:

“When she worked out she was late, she obviously started to thinking that she could be pregnant” says a pal. “And because of the timing, she thinks Rob could be the father.”

I am going to have call bull on this one Kittens. The pic the magazine uses as evidence of KStew’s baby bump appears to be the result of too much bread with dinner and too-tight leather pants. Not to mention these two have been on opposite sides of the USA for months shooting different films.

I know all the Twi-Hards out there are dying for these two to make babies. You’re going to have to wait, I’m afraid…I’m not done with Sparklepants yet.

Lindsay Lohan Sued For Tanning

July 7, 2009 By Leave a Comment

Poor Lindsay Lohan. She finally gets a little cash only to have ‘The Man’ try to take it away before she can spend it on Red Bull and nose spray.

It seems Lindsay claims to have helped a Las Vegas tanning salon owner create a fake at-home tanning spray. The pair are currently working together to push the spray, called Sevin Nyne, onto the public. However, distribution is currently halted as a Tampa chemist, Jennifer Sunday has come forward stating that Lohan and her sir-brusher stole the formula from her.

Via St. Petersburg Times:

“Sunday is suing Lohan, Simon, and Simon’s company for breach of contract, theft of trade secrets, civil conspiracy, intentional interference with contractual relations and deceptive and unfair trade practices.”

According to Sunday, she signed a confidentiality agreement with Lorit Simon, the Las Vegas businesswoman working with Lohan. However, Sunday is arguing that she is still working on the ingredients to the product and that she had no idea Lindsay Lohan would even be involved with the product, let alone take credit as a co-creator.

Lindsay should really stick to something she knows, like designing ho-hose leggings and hosting pool parties for 100 people she’s never met.

Elizabeth Taylor Snubs Michael Jackson’s Memorial

July 7, 2009 By 2 Comments

In true Lindsay Lohan fashion, Elizabeth Taylor has taken to her Twitter to discuss her feelings about the passing of her friend, Michael Jackson.

Taylor revealed on her account that she was asked to speak at Jackson’s memorial, set to take place Tuesday at the Staples Center in LA. The actress, however, declined stating that she wasn’t sure she would be coherent to speak.

Via People:

“I cannot be part of the public whoopla. I just don’t believe that Michael would want me to share my grief with millions of others. How I feel is between us. Not a public event.”

Is it just me, or is it a little weird that Elizabeth Taylor is the only person making sense when it comes to Michael Jackson’s memorial?

Apologies On Our Behalf

July 7, 2009 By 1 Comment

Dear Kittens:

We owe you a HUGE apology. It seems our computers have decided to join the current trend of passing away. Unfortunately, both The Dame’s computer and Crista’s computer have hit their max capacity for gossiping and are now fried. It is a sure sign of the apocolypse. Grab a case of Ramen Noodles and head to your basement.

We will post when we can and as often as possible. Please feel free to have a comment-battle. I’ll get you started—”Twlight” > “Harry Potter”….discuss.

Toodles,
The Dames

‘Three’s Company’ Actress Joyce DeWitt Busted For DUI

July 7, 2009 By Leave a Comment

I’ll admit it. Late at night, when I can’t sleep, I hit-up TV Land to rewatch the shows from my youth. And nothing is more satisfying than a little time with Jack Tripper and the girls. Apparently, the girls know how to party.

“Three’s Company” star Joyce DeWitt was busted for DUI over the holiday weekend. The actress, who is now 60 (YIKES!), drove through a barricade before stopping for police.

Via TMZ:

“Law enforcement sources tell us DeWitt drove past a barricade Saturday afternoon — and when an officer approached her, she smelled like booze. She was given field sobriety tests and then arrested for suspicion of DUI.”

And you all thought Chrissy was the wild one. Janet, next time call for a cab.

Brad Pitt Breaks Down, Paparrazi to the Rescue – Photos

July 3, 2009 By Leave a Comment

Brad Pitt may be one of the most sought after men in Hollywood, but he isn’t above taking help from us peons.

The “Inglorious Basterds” star had some bike troubles while motoring around L.A. yesterday. He was riding one of his “classic” motorcycles when it broke down and forced the hounded actor to the curb. Pitt attempted to fix the bike but failed. Finally, he accepted an offer by a looming photog for a lift.

If this weren’t Saint Angie she would have sprouted wings before she’d slum it for help. Pitt was humble enough to accept the ride. I would also like to point out that his helmet had the words “Daddy’s Helmet” scrawled across it in black permanent marker. I find it endearing he wore it proudly.
