Kal Penn (Kutner) Leaves ‘House’ for the White House

So I don’t typically touch base on my adoration for the best show currently on tv right now, but “House” is my crack and may or may not have a Hugh Laurie fetish. Moving along….SPOILER ALERT! If you are a “House” fan and haven’t seen last night’s episode STOP here

Last night we were treated to a turn events that has been a brewing rumor all year. The suicide watch had theorized that 13, played by the stunning Olivia Wilde, would be the one to kill herself. Last night that theory was shot to hell. Loveable and underrated Kutner was the one commit suicide.

It’s a permanent loss to the show. Unfortunately it’s not one of House’s bad dreams or a drug induced hallucination. Kal Penn has left the show. Strike that, he has left the acting field completely. He told Ausiello of his departure from film and tv is due to his desire to do something else. His ‘something else’ is working at the White House. No joke kids.

“I was incredibly honored a couple of months ago to get the opportunity to go work in the White House. I got to know the President and some of the staff during the campaign and had expressed interest in working there, so I’m going to be the associate director in the White House office of public liaison. They do outreach with the American public and with different organizations. They’re basically the front door of the White House. They take out all of the red tape that falls between the general public and the White House. It’s similar to what I was doing on the campaign.”

Sad to see him go but it was a delicious ending for his character. This is why I adore the show. Coming up on “House”….Cameron and Chase break up and according to Ausiello there is a “twist” after the two split. In previews for future episodes Cuddy confronts Cameron and point blank asks her if she is in love with House.

Ooooo….ahhh! Knowing this show, she and 13 will be having a sexual tryst resulting in a turkey baster baby. Doubtful, but one can only hope.

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.)

Michelle Obama Sweater Debacle – Photos

Everyone is going nuts over Michelle Obama’s sweater. The President’s wife met the Queen of England wearing a button down frumpy sweater. Michelle has gotten a lot criticism for wearing sleeveless looks and “looking like she constantly at a cocktail party.” I like her style, but her London visit wardrobe was a fail and a fry cry from her stunning entrance into the White House and lovely Vogue feature. See the Obama Vogue Feature by clicking HERE.

Then the First Lady wore another awful cardigan, by Junya Watanbe, that clashed blues with her dress. Her other choices were by J. Crew. J. Crew is never acceptable for a meeting-the-Queen-wear. She even missed a button on the Junya sweater and looks like a kindergartner who needs help. Someone needs to let her in on the secret that argyle and sequins are horrid combination.

That and when meeting the queen and foreign ambassadors it’s not wise to bust out the snakeskin pumps. Save it for Ladies Night at Camp David.

Note by The Dame: Thank you to those pointing out the Junya Watanbe sweater. However she DID wear J. Crew in some the photos show.

Barack Obama on Jay Leno, Special Olympics Joke – Full Video

Barack Obama took his sassy self to Jay Leno. He went on the The Tonight Show and cracked jokes about his secret service and compared Washington to “America Idol.” Obama also made a joke about the Special Olympics.

Via MTV:

“When asked about the bowling alley in the White House, Obama joked to Leno that his average score of 129 “was like the Special Olympics or something.” Although, neither Leno or Obama seemed bothered by the comment during the show, the White House issued a statement apologizing for it before the show aired.”

Egads. Open mouth and insert Prada loafer.

Etta James Threatens to Whoop Beyonce – Audio

Now here’s a fight I’d pay hundred of dollars for a ticket to watch! 71-year-old singer Etta James actually threatened to beat the crap out of Beyonce Knowles. And it’s all be caught on tape! Fierce & feisty Etta showed who the real diva was and lashed out extra hard on Beyonce during her concert in Seattle a few nights ago reports MTV. James was none too pleased at Beyonces’ rendition of her signature song “At Last” during the first dance of President Barack Obama and First Lady Michelle Obama at last month’s Neighborhood Inaugural Ball. TMZ caught the audio for her slam on Beyonce.

Via YBF:

“You guys know your president, right? You know the one with the big ears? Wait a minute, he ain’t my president, he might be yours, he ain’t my president. You know that woman he had singing for him, singing my song–she’s going to get her ass whipped.”

“The great Beyonce. I can’t stand Beyonce,” she spat. “She has no business up there, singing up there on a big ol’ president day, singing my song that I’ve been singing forever.”

Beyonce recently immortalized the legendary singer Etta James in the big screen production “Cadillac Records,” which came out in December. So far neither Beyonce or her reps have had any comments. Ironically Etta didn’t kick up a fuss for Beyonce’s portrayal of her in the movie. She acted as a mentor to Beyonce and even attended the movies premiere, posing for pictures with the younger diva. Don’t let those wrinkles fool ya, she’ll still kick your ass! My money is on James!

Mariah Carey Threw at Fit at Inaugural Ball

You know heads are going to roll when Mimi gets mad. Someone had to the nerve to stick her at the meager VIP table studded with fellow celebs. Carey wanted to sit on Barack Obama’s lap at talk about “Gossip Girls.”

Spies present at the Inagural Ball stated that Mariah Carey through a fit after discovering she wasn’t going to sit with the President. After she performed for the Obama’s she left in huff, furious at the thought she’d have to sit with the commoners.

Via Page Six:

“Mariah was in the VIP area, where every celebrity, like Jon Bon Jovi, Mary J. Blige, Alicia Keys and Bruce Springsteen, was seated. But somehow she thought she’d be up with the Obama family. When she realized she wasn’t, she bailed.”

Mariah wasn’t the only one who was angry. Sean Combs, Diddy, Puffy whatever was also pissy because Jay-Z got to perform while he was left sitting in the crowd.

Oh for the love of Sparklepants! These celebrity egos are ridiculous. At least have the talent to back it up. I know that they wake up in the morning a piss excellence, but this some John Mayer shiz.

Michelle Obama Inaugural Dress

We finally have our new President, Barack Obama, in office and George W. Bush is off to rope some cattle and enjoy Friday Night Tickle Fights with Dick Cheney undisturbed.

Our new First Lady, Michelle Obama, wore Isabel Toldeo’s golden creation. I like her already. She strikes me as the type to rock a bumper sticker that says: “I Roll With Pretty Bitches” or something like that.

Anna Wintour NOT Leaving Vogue

The rumors of Anna Wintour’s departure from the fashion Bible are not true. So the interns secretly celebrating the end of her reign need to get back to looking busy.

Rumors that Wintour was leaving Vogue to serve Barack Obama at the White House are false. She was said to be undertaking a “cultural post” in the administration. This is all complete bunk. A rep for Anna states that she isn’t entertaining any ideas of leaving the magazine.

“It’s totally not true. She won’t be working for Obama in any way. What you hear about her leaving is nothing more than rumor.”

Long live the Ice Queen. Yes, I bow down to the Editor. I believe that she is the version of me who got off her rump and put the Kashi down to go be productive. That I and I am pretty sure if I pissed her off I would wake up with the head of a model in my bed.
