Rihanna on ‘Good Morning America’ Interview – Video

F**k love is Rihanna‘s message as she talked about the abuse she had endured for years from her boyfriend, Chris Brown. The “Umbrella” singer has opened up about the pre-Grammy fight that left her bloody, bruised and her secret aired out the world.

She spoke with Diane Sawyer and cited repeatedly going back to Chris as her biggest mistake. Rihanna stated she loved Brown and returned to his side 8 or 9 times after he had beaten her. Realizing she was a role model, she urged women going through the same domestic abuse to remove themselves from the situation no matter how much you think you’re in love.

“Don’t react off of love. Eff love. Come out of the situation and look at it as a third person and for what it really is. Because love is so blind.”

The Part Two of Rihanna on 20/20 is after the cut. Click “Read More…” to see it.

Rue McClanahan Hospitalized

rue-mcclanahan-1.jpg

We have another Golden Girl down! My favorite of the foursome is battling a few heart issues. Rue McClanahan, who played Blanche Devereaux, is being treated for acute cardiac illness. Despite being under the weather she is in good spirits.

She was due to attend ‘Golden: A Gala Tribute to Rue McClanahan’ in San Franciso on November 14th, but will not be able to attend. Her doctor has set strict orders for rest and some testing.

“My darlings, I’m just devastated that I am going to have to miss my own tribute at the Castro Theatre,” she said in a statement on Wednesday from her hospital room. “Unfortunately, my doctor has laid down the law, and I’m currently having some maintenance on the old ticker. Trust me, I’d much rather be in San Francisco having fun and being adored by all of you.”

Upon hearing the news that she was in the hospital, the gala organizer, Marc Huestis is contemplating on postponing the event.

All the Dames wish her quick and full recovery.

Kristen Stewart Confirms and Denies Relationship with Robert Pattinson…and Admits to Being a Lesbian

The following is my open letter to Kristen Stewart.

new moon twilight 031109

Dear Kristen,

You’re making if very hard for some of us to like you.

I liked you, even back when you looked like a little boy and were annoying while trapped in that vault-thing with Jodie Foster.

I defended you when critics came out following the release of “Twilight” and labeled you a bad actress. Yea, you bit your lip too much, and sucked in the air before you spoke, and tried to make ‘Bella Swan’ way more badass than she really is, but I defended you. I reminded critics the film had a small budget, you were young, etc.

Now you’re famous. You can’t go outside without someone snapping your picture. And I get it: you don’t care. You’re an actor. This is just the profession you chose…blah, blah, blah. But this is getting really lame.

You act surprised and miffed everytime you’re asked if you are bumpin’ uglies with Robert Pattinson. You act put-off, like making sweet hot love pudding with this guy is repulsive. Here’s the thing-we know this is an act. Why? First, as I stated, you really aren’t that great of an actress. Secondly, who in their right mind would care so much if people thought you were getting it on with Pattinson? I would LOVE it if every media outlet thought this. I would buy every tabloid, blow-up every picture of him looking at me adoringly and show them to my husband every single spare second I had. Any normal woman would.

Now you’ve gone to Entertainment Weekly to do an interview. And once again, you’ve tried to be mysterious and weird and have come across as the best deliver of bulls**t I have ever seen. Here’s what you said:

“There’s no answer that’s not going to tip you one way or the other. Think about every hypothetical situation: ‘Okay, we are. We aren’t. I’m a lesbian.’ I’m just trying to keep something.”

How is can yes/no NOT tip us one way or the other? “Yes, we are dating,” makes it very clear to everyone that you are, in fact, dating. “I am a lesbian,” again, makes it very clear you prefer down time with ladies. There’s nothing mysterious or difficult to decode about these statements.

And what are you trying to “keep” exactly? I have many male friends that are, really, JUST FRIENDS. And if asked, I have no problem telling whomever that this is what we are: friends. What would I be “keeping” to myself if I refused to answer that question? All this answer manages to do is make those that already can’t stand you have more ammunition to use against you.

But I think I get it. You see, really you’re career as an actor, what you want us all to believe is what you cherish the most, is nothing without the Twilight followers. And the Twilight followers have this fascination with Bella and Edward (i.e. you and Sparklepants) really being together. If you put out that fire, it’s over. I get it, you’re afraid.

However, that doesn’t mean I don’t think you and Sparklepants give one another nude piggy-back rides. I am sure you do because that is what any of would do. And because it’s loads of fun.

Regards,
Dame Crista

Carrie Prejean Sex Tape – NSFW Photos

The train wreck that was once Miss California, Carrie Prejean, is back showing her boobies and asking for sympathy again.

carrie-prejean-1.jpg

In case you managed to take enough Zoloft to forget, Prejean stunned the world with her remarks about same-sex marriage at last year’s Miss USA pageant. Later, she lost her crown as Miss California for what pageant officials listed as a ‘breach of contract.’ This, naturally, came after the Miss California organization dropped a few bills to up Carrie’s cup size (check out those inspirational photos by clicking here).

Now, reports that Prejean has a sex tape are starting to circulate and this may be the reason why Prejean and the pageant organization have dropped lawsuits each had against the other.

Via Popeater:

“Carrie Prejean, [pageant director] Keith Lewis, and K2 Productions [the independent pageant producers] have dropped their claim against each other and wish each other the best in their future endeavors,” reported the official statement. Sources have revealed that the pageant will pay Prejean approximately $100,000 for lawyer and publicist fees although she will earn nothing personally.

What?! The wholesome Prejean flashing her pretty while doin’ the nasty busniess? No way. No one who stands for “opposite marriage” would videotape themselves doing something stupid…wait, that was what the Miss USA pageant was for.

Joss Stone and Lilly Allen Cat Fight!

lily allen 130709joss-stone-header.jpg

Joss Stone is obviously not a Lily Allen fan! In a recent interview, Stone may have started up a bit of a feud when she shared her thoughts on the fellow Brit’s stance on file sharing, believing music should be shared for free whenever possible while Lily has campaigned to make internet file sharing a criminal offense.

Per DigitalSpy:

“She needs to sell records because she’s not a singer, and that’s not an offence to her because I think that she knows that too,” she told The Mirror. “I think she’s a performer and she’s more of a personality than she is a singer. But I think when musicians are really making real music people come to the show and that’s what we make our money from, from playing live. I think it’s probably harder for an artist like Lily and any other pop acts. It’s really about the track and about their personality and their celebrity and that’s how they make their money is selling those records. So the downloads – she’s not going to win that fight. None of us will win that fight. So let’s just accept it and let’s see it as something that can be beautiful and it might change music for the better. It might sort the weeds from the flowers.”

Meow! I just love it when someone so irrelevant takes a stab at someone more successful then they are, trying to gain a little bit of the limelight. You may have bitten off a little more than you can chew, Joss! Oooo I can’t WAIT to see Lily’s rebuttal on this one!

Angelina Jolie is Starving Herself, Brad Pitt Begs Her to Eat

angelina-jolie-eating

Angelina Jolie’s real-life role as a U.N. ambassador is affecting her health so badly, she has friends and family worried about her super skinny appearance, leading to babydaddy Brad Pitt begging her to eat and pack on a few pounds. Angelina struggled with eating disorders and self-mutilation when younger, and friends are scared that she might be headed down the same path.

Per Shine:

“Brad has been trying to talk to Angelina about her weight and she’s telling him to back off,” an insider tells BettyConfidential. “She doesn’t think she is that skinny, but everyone around her says she’s become skin and bones. You can see the veins in her arms and her collarbone. She just doesn’t eat. She only takes bites of the kids’ food and that’s it.”

Angelina is reportedly using her volunteer work for the U.N. as an excuse for keeping her skinny frame, telling Brad that she feels like ‘she can relate more to the refugees looking the way she does now.’ One of Brads biggest concerns is that she may ‘fall ill’ while traveling with their children.

“Brad was just trying to tell Angelina that she’s looking too thin without hurting her feelings, but she retaliated and told him the last thing she needed was him judging her,” the insider says. “He’s been trying to get her to eat, but she won’t listen.”

Angelina, food is your friend! Have a cheeseburger, or two! You won’t be any good to your children or the U.N. if you fall ill from being malnourished!
