Hollywood's Grand Dame of Gossip and Style
Randy Travis was arrested for being drunk in public. This raised my eyebrow as Lindsay Lohan, Boozetina Drunkuilera and I are constantly rocking a blood alcohol level of VODKA < BLOOD SUPPLY. However, you will realize just what kinda party animal Randy is when you hear the rest of the story.
The country crooner was arrested in Texas around 1 AM Monday morning because he was parked outside a Baptist church with a bottle of wine and smelling like Charlie Sheen on…well…a Monday morning.
Mark Wahlberg opened his mouth and something other than ‘Say hello to ya motha for meh.’ came out. During an interview with Men’s Journal a question regarding the terrorist attacks on 9/11 came up. Instead of nodding gravely and giving a PC answer, he attempted to engage in witty banter. (One should probably note: Wahlberg has publicly acknowledged that he was supposed to be on one of the planes that crashed.)
Remember the time when Johnny Depp compared having his picture taken for magazines that pimp his money gobbling movies to rape? Click HERE for a recap on it…
Depp wants to hit the backspace on those comments. For some reason (sarcastic shrug of confusion) people who have actually suffered sexual violation didn’t appreciate his comment. RAINN (Rape, Abuse & Incest National Network) made this statement in response…
Don’t get out your sad faces out for John Mayer. The “Say What You Need to Say” crooner is not quitting music. In fact he “just wants to play his guitar” and wave goodbye to the media.
Mayer unleashed more verbal diarrhea to Playboy magazine in which he managed to offend 60% of the world in one interview. In case you missed it…
He spewed way too much information on his sex life:
*”I don’t think I open myself to it. My d**k is sort of like a white supremacist. I’ve got a Benetton heart and a f**kin’ David Duke c**k. I’m going to start dating separately from my d**k.”
*Described Jessica Simpson as sexual napalm (click HERE for that quote)
*Said that he only made sexy times with Jennifer Aniston a handful of times and said she wants to time travel back to 1998 and be Rachel again. He also affirmed that her hatred of Twitter was one of the reasons they split.
Then the cherry on top of this ice cream sundae that has his publicist standing on a ledge somewhere was his use of the controversial “N” Word.
“Someone asked me the other day, ‘What does it feel like now to have a hood pass?’ And by the way, it’s sort of a contradiction in terms, because if you really had a hood pass, you could call it a ni**er pass. Why are you pulling a punch and calling it a hood pass if you really have a hood pass? But I said, I can’t really have a hood pass. I’ve never walked into a restaurant, asked for a table and been told, ‘We’re full.’
His choice in being an unapologetic bag of lady wash has revoked his aforementioned “hood pass” and he is starting to feel the backlash of letting endless piles of poo plop out of his mouth. He made tried to apologize in a statement via his rep (aka Twitter.)
Re: using the ‘N word’ in an interview: I am sorry that I used the word. And it’s such a shame that I did because the point I was trying to make was in the exact opposite spirit of the word itself. It was arrogant of me to think I could intellectualize using it, because I realize that there’s no intellectualizing a word that is so emotionally charged.
And while I’m using today for looking at myself under harsh light, I think it’s time to stop trying to be so raw in interviews. It started as an attempt to not let the waves of criticism get to me, but it’s gotten out of hand and I’ve created somewhat of a monster. I wanted to be a blues guitar player. And a singer. And a songwriter. Not a shock jock. I don’t have the stomach for it. Again, because I don’t want anyone to think I’m equivocating: I should have never said the word and I will never say it again. I just wanted to play the guitar for people. Everything else just sort of popped up and I improvised, and kept doubling down on it…”

It gets even better as he continues to think his “quest to be clever” made his constant douchebaggery ok. He gave his audience in Nashville a tear ridden apology that was about as genuine as Balloon Boy’s dad. Mayer announced he “quit the media” and a roar of cheers followed.
Take it as a hint Johnny.
Here is a big juicy I told you so! Brad Pitt and Angelina Jolie are coming down from Mount BettaThanU to sue News of the World for shilling break up blasphemy.
In case you were busy fixing a bad hair dye job that left you looking like Cheetara (true story) and missed the entire Angelina Jolie and Brad Pitt break up debacle in late January, click HERE for a recap. Since the publication of the split story, the power couple have gotten sue happy.
Via BBC News:
Hollywood couple Angelina Jolie and Brad Pitt are suing the News Of The World newspaper after it published allegations about their relationship.
In a story published on 24 January, the paper said the couple would separate and had agreed the division of assets and custody of their children. The couple’s lawyer, Keith Schilling, called the “widely republished” allegations “false and intrusive”. He added the paper had failed to meet “reasonable demands” for an apology.
To further prove that Jolie’s voodoo vag still has its claws sunk into Pitt, they were photographed kissing and being all cuddly at the Super Bowl with their son Maddox happily watching the Saints own the Colts.

Kathy Griffin managed to land a gig co-hosting CNN’s New Year’s Eve special with Anderson Cooper, and after a couple of risky comments and dropping the ‘F-bomb’, its a safe bet to say she won’t be asked to co-host again. Infact, its a sure bet – CNN has banned her.
Per PopEater:
“She was a total embarrassment to the network that calls themselves ‘The Most Trusted Name in News.’ Even Anderson (Cooper, her co-host) thinks it’s time to say goodbye to Kathy,” a CNN insider tells me.
Griffin’s potty-mouthed New Year’s Eve shenanigans included asking for a “bump” of cocaine, theorizing on Anderson Cooper’s pleasuring habits in front of a mirror and asking if he has a ‘safe’ word, and referring to Balloon Boy, Falcon Heene, as “F*****g Heene.” Cooper, like the true newsman he is, just shakes his head and offers a small, embarrassed laugh, and calls her “terrible” before carrying on with the broadcast. CNN quickly issued a statement on Griffin’s behalf, apologizing for her use of “profanity,” but I think they would have seemed more sincere if they apologized for hiring her in the first place. Griffin has yet to offer up an apology herself, which isn’t surprising since she’s never apologized for being obnoxious before.
The stripper who claims to have had an affair with Josh Duhamel isn’t letting go of her time in the spotlight, instead reaching out to apologize to Fergie for messing around with her husband. Nicole Forrester (husband boinking stripper) even passed a lie detector test regarding her affair with Duhamel. (Click HERE to see the videos of her confession.)
Per Extra:
“I thought, ‘Nobody’s gonna find out. It’s not gonna hurt anybody,” says Nicole Forrester, a 34-year-old single mother of two who says she slept with Duhamel, 37, while he was filming “Live As We Know It” in Atlanta. “I’m sorry. I’m sorry that I didn’t think of it at the time like I think of it now. She’s standing by her man, so obviously I’m not wrecking the home too bad, huh?” she says.”
Now thats one classy lady, huh? Note to Nicole – Your sincerity becomes questionable when you insist that you are not a homewrecker. Forrester further mentions that her own family, including her two young children, has suffered due the recent scandal.
“My son, he went to a football game last Saturday and he was like, mom, ‘you’re disgusting. I didn’t know you had sex with him,’” he says.”
Aww, such a heartwarming tale, dontcha think? What, is she hawking for a ‘Lifetime movie of the week?’ LeAnne Rimes is looking for work, and she’s fit the part of Forrester perfectly! Nevertheless, it proved to be a life changing experience for her, because she says she has given up stripping since her children asked her to. Despite her son calling her disgusting and the amount of public backlash she has endured, Forrester can’t seem to quit talking about her time with Duhamel. At first Forrester claimed she and the actor had a “really, really good time” together, but now she’s singing a different tune saying she was not ‘wowed’ by Duhamel’s bedroom skills.
Per Huffington Post:
“As far as the best sex? No, I don’t think that was it,” she said.
But then, in what seems to be a backhanded move, Forrester mentions that Duhamel has still been sending her text messages since the scandal broke. So what exactly is she trying to tell Fergie – I’m sorry I slept with your man, and by the way, he’s still in contact with me? That’s quite an apology, huh? My guess is she’s only apologizing due to her son thinking his mom is a homewrecking skank.
Quotables:
Heckler Spray: “You have to feel for Nicole Forrester. After all, how was she to know that allegedly sleeping with a married actor and then voluntarily doing numerous high profile paid interviews about it on TV, radio and in print would lead to people finding out about it? She’s the real victim here. That poor woman.”

Another war of words erupted on “The Insider” last night, this time between attention seeker Michael Lohan and “Real Housewives of Atlanta” star NeNe Leakes.
Lohan has been speaking out to the media alot lately, saying that he wants to petition for his daughter’s Lindsay Lohans‘ conservatorship because he believes she is addicted to prescription drugs. Lohan appeared via satellite on the show, and Leakes barely let Lohan have a chance to defend himself for his public actions, though that still didn’t stop him from lashing back at her. She accused him of being a sell-out parent who is trying to make money on his daughter, calling him things like a “toxic parrot” and “manipulator,” but he denied the claims.
Per NY Daily News:
“I believe you’re just trying to make money off of Lindsay,” Leakes said. “You’re always in the press.”
Lohan responded, saying he hasn’t made any money off of his daughter and that he’s the only one trying to help her.
“I’m not going see my daughter die!” he said. “You have Michael Jackson, you had Heath Ledger, Adam Goldstein. You can go back to John Belushi, Anna Nicole Smith, and even Elvis Presley. It was prescription drugs that killed these people. I’m not going watch my daughter die.”
Undeterred, Leakes continued, threatening him physically. “Do not make me come after you,” she warned. “I will eat you alive.”
“Do something worthwhile and promote Nutri-System,” says Lohan. “Give your chair a break and move your fat a** outta there!”
Guess we know now where Lindsay gets her “Oh, well she’s fat” comebacks from. Leakes then takes it another step farther, telling Lohan to ‘go hang out with Jon Gosselin.’ Bah-Zing! Their war of the words ended with Lohan taking off his mic and leaving his chair, abruptly ending the interview. Come on now… we’re all adults here, aren’t we?
It’s been a rough couple of weeks for Daddy Lohan, who is reportedly about to get served with a restraining order by Lindsay. This comes after he made it public knowledge that he hoped stage an intervention for her whose alarming appearance and erratic behavior has left him sure she’s been popping pills and drinking in excess. Lindsay didn’t appreciate her father’s heart-to-heart with the tabloids and obviously Leakes didn’t either! But in the end, its Papa Lohan who looks like the bigger man, as he’s issued an apology to Ms. Leakes.
Per The Insider:
“I apologize to the producers of ["The Insider"], the viewers and even Miss Leakes for coming back at her, for her attack on me, in the inappropriate manner I did. I do however wish I had known she was on the panel because then I would have known what I was in for and I would have handled things differently. To begin with, she may have children, but none in a crisis situation. Second, for her to call me a broke a** when I am not, but she had a house in foreclosure and 2 cars repoed [sic], I would have addressed that as well. This show was about helping my daughter and owning up to my part of her life and why I have taken these measures. Not a personal attack on Lindsay or me. I am sorry for my conduct and I hope Ms. Leakes is for hers.”
Take this with a grain of salt – Knowing him, its just another way to keep his name floating about. Pick up on the cheap shots in his so-called apology? Check out the video above for your LOL’s of the day!

Despite the dinnertime shrieks of “OMG Zach Braff killed himself! I read it on Twitter!” that you might have heard, the actor is very much alive and well! Reports that the “Scrubs” actor had died of an apparent suicide have been spreading like wild fires yesterday, with the news even being reported on a fake CNN site and becoming a top trending topic on Twitter. The headline of the article said “Beloved Scrubs Actor Found Dead In His Home” and claimed he was found with an empty pill bottle by his side. The news of Braff’s so-called death was first reported on the hoax CNN page, which actually looked quite genuine, while another article appeared claiming that Braff had died while shooting a film in New Zealand. Thankfully, these turned out to be not true. However, if you did a little browsing on the fake CNN page it clearly gave away the hoax – all of the “top stories” on the right hand side were from 2007. Braff posted a video on Monday to his personal Facebook page, disputing the claim and calling out the person behind it.
Per PopEater:
“There was a big Internet rumor today that I was dead … that I OD’d on some pills. It’s not the case, I’m here at ‘Scrubs’ shooting the new ‘Scrubs’ title sequence, which is a little bit like dying, so I guess that was semi-accurate. A couple of inaccuracies you should have noticed when you saw the thing, if you believed it — the dude said I was found in my 32,000 square foot estate in Beverly Hills – but I’m not Oprah! That’s a big house! I just want to say to the douchebag who started this: You win my first ever douche of the day award for making my mom upset!”
Chris Laganella of New Jersey seems to be the lucky winner of that award. He has since removed the fake CNN page post and replaced it with an apology and explanation that I don’t quite understand. Laganella writes that he made the spoof page in 2007 for friends and fellow fans of “Scrubs,” but somehow it was made public without his knowledge.
Per ChrisBox:
“So let’s just clear some stuff up. I did not make this page to intentionally fool everyone on the internet. I didn’t expect it to even be made public. Ever. I’m sorry if I scared everyone out there. Zach, sorry if you got offended by me posting a fake suicide about you on the internet. Your 32,000 square foot house would be pretty empty without you. Thanks for (apparently) taking it lightly, since I haven’t gotten a letter about a lawsuit yet. Just so you know, I’m a huge fan; that’s the only reason I made this page, believe it or not. Also, sorry for upsetting your mother.”
There’s a new one of these fake troll-inspired death rumors every week. I think only school kids are fooled by it any more. Sometimes it’s the oddest celebs, which the pranksters do on purpose to make it more believable. While we’ve debunked this one, its only a matter of time before the next one pops up.
