01.10.2008 KATIE WILL RUN THE BOSTON MARATHON

Back in November, Katie Holmes ran the New York City Marathon, her first one, and now Us Weekly is reporting that she has signed up for her second, this time the famous Boston Marathon. Us says:

Holmes had placed 34,193rd among 39,085 entrants in the New York City marathon (26.2 miles in about 5 hours and 30 minutes) on Nov. 4, which means she didn't qualify by merit for the April 21st race in Boston.
Runners in the Boston Marathon must have specific qualifying times. For Holmes' age group, that would mean finishing a previous marathon in 3 hours and 40 minutes.
The actress "received an exemption," a marathon insider tells Us, because race organizers "occasionally give out 'charity entrances.'"

It's easy to make fun of Katie Holmes for a hundred different reasons, but at least she exercises and keeps her body looking hot, unlike that fatass Jennifer Love Hewitt, who seems to think running is only for when your car breaks down in the rain or if you’re being chases by zombies.

01.09.2008 TOM CRUISE GOT ONE. THIS ONE.

Friends of Tom Cruise like Jennifer Lopez and David Beckham and Will Smith say that, despite his affinity for scientology, he would never pressure them to join the infamous Hollywood cult.  But today, the New York Daily News says Smith has done just that.  Seemingly.

Will Smith has joined the ranks of Hollywood power players actively recruiting for the Church of Scientology.
Big stars traditionally distribute "wrap presents" to crew members after completing a film. His recent gift after wrapping next summer's comedy "Hancock" was a card good for a personality test at your local Scientology center.
Never mind that such tests are given free by the church anyway. The quiz is designed to convert people to the religion by identifying personality flaws that - surprise! - Scientology can fix right up for you.
Smith, who is best buddies with Scientology booster Tom Cruise, has never confirmed that he joined the church. But he told "Access Hollywood" last month: "I was introduced to it by Tom, and I'm a student of world religion. I was raised in a Baptist household. I went to a Catholic school, but the ideas of the Bible are 98% the same ideas of Scientology, 98% the same ideas of Hinduism and Buddhism."

I don't have a bible in front of me, but I'm pretty sure that's not true.  I went to catholic school too and I remember very little about alien wars and evil galactic rulers.  Or maybe that's why all the cool guys did so well in religion class, while I was getting a hand job in the library from their girlfriends.  Golly, I really missed out.

01.07.2008 TOM CRUISE IS CRAZY, IMPORTANT

A new book is claiming that longtime Scientologist Tom Cruise has risen in the ranks and is now second in command of the controversial religion, based on outer space warlords trapped in volcano prisons and dead aliens attaching themselves to human souls.  Oh, and also, there’s this…

And author ANDREW MORTON says some followers have speculated that his daughter Suri may have been fathered using FROZEN SPERM from its founder L RON HUBBARD.
Mission: Impossible actor Tom has rubbished the book by Brit Morton, who wrote Princess Diana’s biography Her True Story.
Tom, 45, also denies claims that his ex NICOLE KIDMAN was told her sex secrets would be leaked if she criticised the “church”, and that he aims to convert pals DAVID and VICTORIA BECKHAM.
Morton interviewed high-ranking Scientologists, or Sea Orgs — led by the mysterious David Miscavige.
And Morton writes: “Some Sea Org fanatics wondered if the actress had been impregnated with Hubbard’s frozen sperm.

Scientology will do well with a keen mind like Tom Cruise in charge, even if he has been evasive about his role there in the past.  I cornered him in an elevator one time and said, "Tom, what's the deal with you and scientology", and he said, "uhh, uhh", then turned his back to me.  Then he turned around again with his finger under his nose so it looked like a moustache and said, "I'm not Tom Cruise".  And then I said, "I'm pretty sure you are".  Then he said "ring ring" out of the corner of his mouth, then put his thumb and his pinky to his ear and his mouth and said, "I'm sorry, I have to take this call".  He said it was President Lincoln, but frankly I had my doubts.



12.13.2007 KATIE HOLMES ISNT HELPING

Very obviously Tom Cruise has been plagued for years by rumors that he's gay, and every girlfriend or wife he ever has is just called a beard, and now Katie Holmes tells Us magazine some stuff that will do anything but help.

Katie Holmes has opened up about her one-year marriage to Tom Cruise, revealing his biggest turn-on.  "Tom likes me in a suit and a mini every now and then. I like it when he likes it. It makes me blush," she told the January issue of In Style. "He'll say, 'You look good. I hope security's going with you.' Now that gives me attitude."

Uhhh … hmm.  A suit, huh?  Like, a suit and tie.  And your hair keeps getting shorter and shorter, huh?  This is what we call "baby steps" Katie.  By next year, fully expect an interview where she says, "Toms new big turn-on is when I wear an old fedora and argyle sweater and smoke a pipe during sex.  And he mounts me from behind and does anal, and he likes it when I wave my arm back at him and say, 'you kids get out of there!  Damn kids!' "



11.12.2007 RANDOM MORNING STUFF

KAYNES MOM PASSED AWAY - Kanye West's mother, Dr. Donda West, has died. Multiple reports indicate that Dr. West's death may have been a result of complications from some sort of surgery.  And, I don't mean to make light of this, but was she a real doctor, or was that her rap name?  Sometimes in the black community they'll call you "Dr." if you rap or can make a really good bar-b-que sauce.  Rednecks do the same thing.  It's a small world.

CNN IS A DISGRACE - remember that Simpsons where Homer was on "Rock Bottom" and they kept editing his answer so it looked like he was saying something else, and the clock on the wall behind him kept jumping back and forth (go here, scroll down)  If you don't, watch this CNN clip.  It's pretty much the same thing.  Here, they interview WWE superstar John Cena, and decide his answer to "have you ever done steroids" wasn't sexy enough, so they twist it around and edit it to make his adamant "no" look like a vague "yes".  Later the CNN voice over asked if he ever poisoned our water supply, and Cena said, "yeah, yes, uh-huh, oh I know it's crazy".  OH MY GOD, HE CONFESSED, IT WAS HIM, GET HIM!!!

See the unedited video and the video CNN aired here.

"LIONS FOR LAMBS" IS DOA - "American Gangster" was the big winner at the box office this weekend, and has now made a little over 80 million in two weeks.  "Fred Clause" was the biggest debut of the weekend, earning around 19 million, but the story was the debut of the Tom Cruise movie "Lions for Lambs", which made less than 7 million.  It's yet another movie Hollywood has churned out about the Iraq war ("Rendition", "In the Valley of Elah", "The Kingdom") that has failed to find an audience.  Um, because, yes, we get it Hollywood, you don't like the war.  You liked Clinton.  We know.  We get it.  Enough already.  Just go do a rail off some underage model then blow some shit up and cram chicks with big boobs into leather pants.  You filthy god damn hippies aren't here to think, just do something cool.



11.09.2007 EVERYONE HATES TOM CRUISE

Fox News says it's no coincidence that Robert Redford and Meryl Streep did not attend a dinner earlier this week honoring Tom Cruise.  Cruise, Redford and Streep, of course, star in "Lions For Lambs", which opens nationwide today.  Fox says:

When I noted that the "Lions for Lambs" stars were absent, an insider very close to the scene told me, "Meryl and Bob can’t stand Tom. In London, Tom kept trying to push himself into interviews. Bob said, 'No.' Tom wouldn’t listen. Meryl has done almost nothing for the movie. She wants nothing to do with him."
A spokesman said Redford had always had a Sundance Institute dinner scheduled for that night. But usually in those cases, the absentees send video testimonials. Neither Streep nor Redford were involved in that kind of gesture.

People aren't normally this polarized unless Tom Cruise is involved somehow.  Some people say they love him, some seemingly can't stand him.  Seriously, I think he might be the devil.
