‘The Simpsons’ To Be Canceled ?!

October 4, 2011 By Leave a Comment

It could happen unfortunately. I am not a big fan of cartoons as it usually connotates the presence of children, but ‘The Simpsons’ is a television staple.

The 23rd season could be the last thanks to money disputes. A negotiation is at an impasse and could end with ‘The Simpsons’ being canceled. The 6 core voices bringing life to most of the show’s characters are being ordered to take a 45% pay cut. Fox snubbed an offer by the actors who offered a 30% cut, but asked for a percentage of the back end profits from the multi-billion dollar show. (Currently, the cast is making around $8 million for 22 weeks of work with no percentage of the syndication/merchandise profits.)

Hows this for your ‘wtf’ item of the day! E! Online reporter Marc Malkin confirmed that Marge Simpson, the iconic blue bee-hived cartoon TV mom of Bart, will appear naked on the November cover of Playboy magazine and will be featured in a special three-page spread. Ay Caramba! Marge isn’t going to pull any of that Heidi Montag stuff either by covering up the goods – Marge is going all the way! The November issue will also include an in-depth interview, all part of the 20th anniversary celebration for “The Simpsons.” Hugh Hefner had mentioned a while back on his Twitter page about a possible Marge-Playboy pairing.

Per Hugh Hefners’ Twitter:

“Marge Simpson has a surprise for her fans in the November issue of Playboy.”

Who knew he wasn’t joking? She’s been scantily clad on the Simpsons before, so this really isn’t too big of a jump. I doubt it if Marge will even need a little help from photoshop. Now be honest, Damers: Who here isn’t the least big curious and will pick up Marge’s Playboy debut once it hits newsstands?

Khloe Kardashian and Lamar Odom aren’t the only ones to sign away their life as they know it this past weekend! “My Name is Earl” actress Jaime Pressly married entertainment lawyer boyfriend Simran Singh this past Saturday. The couple exchanged their wedding vows around 6pm in front of family and friends at the estate of Dick Clark in Malibu on a bluff overlooking the Pacific Ocean. This was the same spot as Adam Sandlers 2003 wedding. Pressly wore a dress by British designer Jenny Packham.

Justin Guarini’s wedding was another celebrity marriage that took place over weekend. The season 1 runner up on “American Idol” and “The Simpsons” Side Show Bob look alike married fiancee Reina Capodici in a private wedding on Saturday evening in Doylestown, Pennsylvania, at an estate that overlooks the Delaware river. The couple wrote their own vows and shared their words amongst their 50 guests, which included family and friends.

Per People:

“Justin is one of the most deserving people of happiness and love,” Kimberly Caldwell, Guarini’s co-host on the TV Guide Network’s Idol Tonight, tells PEOPLE. “I know he will be an amazing hubby.”

The couple became engaged back in December in Orlando while Guarini was at Disney’s EPCOT Center filming for the American Idol Experience ride at the theme park. Congratulations to both happy couples!
