Oh holy crap finally. Finally, finally, Paula Abduls dumb ass is off “American Idol”, saying on her twitter page 11 hours ago:

With sadness in my heart, I’ve decided not to return to Idol. I’ll miss nurturing all the new talent, but most of all I’ll miss being a part of a show that I helped from day 1 become an international phenomenon.

There is so much wrong with the second half of that statement I don’t even know where to begin.  At best she was useless.  More often she was a drunken menace, and usually it wasn’t even clear if she was talking to the right person because her “advice” rarely had any relevance to anything that had happened on stage.  Listening to her is like reading a transcript from some other language done by someone who only barely speaks English.  And they had to do it in a hurry.  And someone had just whacked them in the head.

06.19.2009 Shut the hell up Ashton

Hollywood actors are often pretty dumb, and many really famous actors are practically retarded. Their job is to read a sentence and then a few days later say it out loud, and they can rarely even do that on the first try, but for some reason they think this makes them experts on a wide range of topics. This is very rarely true.  Remember when Cameron Diaz went on Oprah and said that if you didn’t vote for John Kerry rape would be legal.  Well we didn’t, and trust me it’s not.  If it was I’d be hiding in Megan Fox’s closet right now.  Oh but look, I’m rambling.  Let’s see what Ashton Kutcher has on his mind today.  Yahoo says…

“Kutcher has taken to his Twitter blog to voice support for the Iranian people - and urge US officials not to get involved in the uprising.
‘Considering how well fighting 4 freedom in Iraq went, I dont know that we should B jumping in2 this Iran deal. I think that truly the only people that can change things in Iran are the Iranians themselves and they seem to be speaking their minds now.’”

Hmm.  Should we B jumping in2 this?  I thought so be4 but now 404.  I’d like to hear what Drew Barrymore has to say about Iran before I make up my mind.  Drew, ?4U.  Srs Bzns.  I’m sending a reminder kitty kat so you don’t forget.   =^..^=

06.16.2009 Christina Applegate is easily relaxed

You hear a lot of so-called “facts” in the media about smoking and cancer, or at least you do if you’re not Christina Applegate, who knocked down a few smokes this weekend in Italy.  It’s true she had breast cancer last August, but that was a long time ago, and cancer is like chicken pox or lightning attack.  It can’t happen twice.  She should snap off the filter and enjoy herself.   She’s immortal now.

06.11.2009 fuck you, beyonce

45feet

In 2004, when Jennifer Lopez made a guest appearance on Will and Grace, she brought 75 assistants, including an eyebrow specialist and someone whose job was to hold her coat. In 2005, Mariah Carey had her limo circle the block at 2:15am until her London hotel laid down a red carpet lined with white candles and rose pedals because she refused to walk on concrete. Neither one of them is the most annoying bitch in this story.

Beyonce Knowles reportedly took a caravan of cars to transport herself and her entourage across the street.
The singer, who was staying at the Madarin Oriental hotel in Hyde Park (London), left to go shopping at the famed Harvey Nichols department store.
Which is about 45 feet from her hotel.
Instead of walking across the street, Beyonce took two vehicles full of bodyguards and personal assistants to drive down the road and make a U-turn in order to be dropped off in front of the store.
(She) was given a 20-minute guided tour around the department store (then) took the same route back to the hotel.”

In Beyonces defense, she confused “Harvey Nichols” with “Tim Hortons”.  One is a department store, the other sells doughnuts.  So she needed cars with as much room as there is in her stomachs.  It’s also why the tour was only 20 minutes.  She asked “where are the doughnuts” twice, then “no really where are the doughnuts”, then “what do you mean there’s no doughnuts”, then she slumped to the ground and cried.  By then someone had gotten her doughnuts, and so there was really no point in sticking around any more.

NOTE - changed out the banner picture with one from the Daily Mail to show how close her hotel really is.

05.08.2009 God you suck Paltrow

paltrowebay

There’s an auction on eBay (over here) for the Johnsons Clean Water Initiative, and even though she’s balancing doing nothing with doing nothing, Gwyneth Paltrow made time to volunteer someone else to do something.  What an angel she is.  Don’t be confused by the 5 pictures of Paltrow compared to just one of the person who is actually doing something, rest assured, Paltrow has no further obligation.

Basically you get 90 minutes with trainer Tracy Anderson, 5 additional hours with some other trainer, three workout videos, 40 minutes worth of consultation over the phone, and a $2,500 American Express gift card for travel arrangements.

It says the retail value of all this is $10,000, and it really takes some balls to claim that kind of thing.  Let’s just pretend that it somehow makes sense to turn $2500 from your bank into a $2500 gift card on the floor, and let’s pretend the dvd’s cost $150 dollars each, that means these personal training sessions are worth well over $1000 an hour.  I find that hard to believe.  Especially since this woman is Paltrows business partner, so it probably cost her nothing at all.  I don’t have a dictionary on front of me but I’m pretty sure “donate” means “to give”.
