Kim Kardashian Gets Real. Riiiiiiight.

Friday, April 16th, 2010

Kim Kardashian Small Dress

Ah yes, one of the phoniest socialites in Tinseltown is working hard to dispel that image of hers by starting yet another reality show called “Getting Real”. And I guess filming reality television is the only way she knows how to be productive, as she will be using this show to “reach out” and cover topics that today’s young woman may have difficulties dealing with. The mainstay of these topics? The time of the month. And of course the show will be financed by the feminine hygiene brand of Kotex. Kim Kardashian reveals the time of the month isn’t a touchy subject in her household and wants girls to be comfortable talking about it. In the videos, the Kardashians tell all about their own personal experiences and give girls advice on the changes to their body. It must be “real” because she’s even blogged about it.

“So… let’s talk about PERIODS!! We all get ‘em but it’s kind of a taboo subject, right? There are six females in our family, so it’s never been a touchy subject for us! Having my mum and my sisters around me, I couldn’t have asked for a better support system, and now Khloe, Kourt and I try to make Kendall and Kylie feel just as comfortable and realise there’s nothing to be embarrassed about. Because not everyone is as open as us Kardashian girls, Khloe, mom and I decided it was time to help young women realise that getting your period is nothing to be self conscious of… We all remember the day we first got ours, where we were, who we told… I was with Rob of all people haha. We just shot a series of ‘Getting Real’ videos with U by Kotex.”

I will make sure an alert is sounded well enough in advance, as the too much information buzzer is about to go. And loud. It is a sad sad day when the only thing that will get the Kardashians some media attention is….the one topic nobody wants to know about. Particularly with them.

Trouble in Paradise for Justin and Jessica?

Wednesday, April 14th, 2010

Justin Timberlake Cameron Diaz

Hello Justin, fight on line one. It sounds like the filming between Justin Timberlake and his infamous ex Cameron Diaz may be causing some trouble in paradise for Justin and Jessica. Jessica just calllllll-ed to saaaaa-y “we need to talk about our relationship.” It looks like someone’s girlfriend has a Google News Alert on Cameron Diaz and it’s not pretty. Justin Timberlake and Jessica Biel have been having epic blow-outs over the phone while Justin’s been filming the comedy Bad Teacher with his ex Cameron Diaz, Us reports. In the film, Cameron plays a trashy teacher who tries to seduce a colleague. Justin plays a beloved fellow teacher at the school. Paparazzi shots taken on the set haven’t done much to clarify the plot, but one pic of Cameron marching around in denim cut-offs and a tied-above-the-tummy plaid button-up wasn’t exactly reassuring for Jessica Biel. A source describes Jessica as being “territorial and upset” about Justin’s new co-star. Meanwhile, Justin and Cameron are too busy cracking each other up on set to notice. But if it makes Jessica feel any better, Cameron has been linked to Alex Rodriguez, who she went pelvis-to-pelvis with at a post-Super Bowl party in Miami last February. They met up in Florida during A-Rod’s spring training according to Life and Style magazine. “They’ve been keeping it quiet, but they’re totally together,” a source tells the magazine. But can we engrave that in stone? Think not. Another source told Page Six column not to expect them to get too serious too soon. That source said their relationship is “casual”, with neither pushing for commitment. Were Justin and Cameron really going to get back together anyway? Hardly think so. They already dated for four years. They’re not Nicollette Sheridan and Michael Bolton (yet). But I think Justin and Jessica have to be in the final days of their relationship to really put a dent in this rumor. There have been too many rumors for too long for them all to be wrong. Do you think there’s a chance he’ll reunite with Brit… ah, she’s passed out in a pile of laundry. We’ll ask her another time.

Tiger Woods’ Biggest Fan

Monday, April 12th, 2010

Tiger Woods Golf 2011

Well it seems that Tiger is not as alone in the world as he may have thought, as an unlikely supporter has cropped up in Hollywood – funny man Jim Carrey. Yes, despite all of his OWN problems, Jim Carrey is putting his lost relationship aside to give some shout out to Tiger Woods. Last Friday, Jim hit his Twitter page where he defended the golfer, who returned to the course on Sunday professionally to compete in The Masters, Tiger’s first tournament since his infidelity scandal broke in November of last year. “Tiger Woods owes nothing 2 anyone but himself,” Jim Tweeted. “2 please his father he gave up his childhood and his freedom in the world. That’s enough!” Earlier this week, Nike unveiled a new ad featuring a solemn faced Tiger, who faces the camera as the voice of his late father, Earl Woods, asks, “What did you learn?” It has since been revealed Earl Woods’ words were taken out of context from a 2004 but this is another case where it may have been easier to ask for forgiveness after the fact, rather than permission. A trend it seems that Tiger Woods is very familiar with. But Jim won’t back down, he even calls it like he sees it and doesn’t have a whole lot of sympathy for Tiger’s stoic wife, Elin Nordegren. From Jim Carrey’s Twitter page:

“No wife is blind enough to miss that much infidelity. Elin had 2 b a willing participant on the ride 4 whatever reason. kids/lifestyle. If you really wanna see sexual disfunction get 2 know your favorite basketball star! Curling is the only safe sport 4 a married man!”

Well I guess even Tiger Woods needs some support from at least one person in America. And the fact that Jim Carrey isn’t even American may be signal enough that even America has had enough of him.

Splitsville for Jim and Jenny

Wednesday, April 7th, 2010

Jim Carrey Jenny McCarthy

There are certain couples in Hollywood that just make us all believe that love can exist in Tinseltown, and we use them to cling to the hope that true love can survive. And then the whole Reese and Ryan thing happened, and it kind of made us a little cynical over love in the Hills of Beverly, but Jim and Jenny seemed to always bring that down to earth for us, didn’t they? So this is a very sad one to report, we saw them here just this past summer vacationing in Maui and looking like the beautiful blended family. But alas it appears that according to Twitter, and confirmation by their people, Jim and Jenny have called it a day. The announcement surprised Hollywood insiders as the low-profile couple appeared to have a durable union, and Carrey passionately advocated a link between vaccines and autism, a neurological disease suffered by McCarthy’s 7-year-old son. On Valentine’s Day, Carrey, 48, hired a plane to sky-write “J (heart) J” above the home they shared in the upscale Los Angeles neighborhood of Brentwood. “Jenny my Love, you’ve stolen my heart, my soul and of course anything you find in my pants,” he cooed in a follow-up Twitter message. But both were singing a different tune on Tuesday.

“Jenny and I have just ended our (five-year) relationship,” Carrey wrote. “I’m grateful (for) the many blessings we’ve shared and I wish her the very best!”

McCarthy, 37, was equally amicable, writing that she was grateful for their time together, and would “always keep Jim as a leading man in my heart.” In the early days of their relationship, Carrey wooed McCarthy by taking her on a helicopter ride and to concerts by Radiohead and Fiona Apple, according to a People magazine report in 2006. In recent years, Carrey and McCarthy entered the emotional debate about the causes of autism, strenuously defending medical researchers who believed the disease was caused by vaccines. McCarthy’s son Evan was diagnosed with the disease in 2005, a disclosure that strained her first marriage to actor/director John Asher. Carrey, who has a daughter from the first of his two marriages, recently became a grandfather for the first time. His most recent on-screen appearance was in the 2008 comedy “Yes Man,” which earned $223 million worldwide. McCarthy, a former Playboy Playmate, is writing a book about relationships. If it is anything like her books on parenting, it will be an astounding success. Our hearts go out to this couple and if nothing else, we are glad to see them being so grownup about it. But what else can you do? Hope for an on again twist vis a vis Kate Hudson and Owen Wilson? **fingers crossed**

Sandra Bullock Denies Sex Tape

Sandra Bullock Sex Tape

Well you have to know that this rumor was bound to crop up sooner or later. Here is Sandra Bullock spotted picking up her step children from school as if her and their lives hadn’t just exploded in their faces. The latest news? A sex tape was made during their marriage and is now “on the loose”. But Sandra Bullock wants to make it clear she’s an Oscar-winning actress – not an adult film star. America’s sweetheart wasted no time speaking out against an online report that alleged her husband Jesse James has a dozen homemade sex tapes.

“There is no sex tape. There never has been one and there never will be one.”

While her rep has issued a few sporadic statements since news of her husband’s alleged affairs first surfaced a month ago, this is the first time the actress-in-hiding has spoken directly to the media. Bullock’s passionate response comes just as “RadarOnline” posted an exclusive story, which sidestepped the question of whether the famous star was actually in any of the videos, but alleged the tapes James made with other women are very shocking. “Most of the tapes feature a mass amount of Nazi paraphernalia,” said the source, who spoke to “Radar” on the condition of anonymity. “It’s all really quite disturbing.” The source claims to have seen one of the tapes and offered a partial description to the celebrity website.

“What I saw was a naked woman on her knees and Jesse in a Nazi hat waving his arm in a salute. It looked like the woman’s hands were bound. He was shouting and singing and appearing to swig from a bottle of bourbon every now and then.”

“Radar” goes on to report that none of the sex tapes are up for sale but that they are also not in a completely secure location. “They could end up being made public just like the photo of Jesse giving the Nazi salute,” said the source. “There’s no doubt some of these tapes could leak and end up on the Internet.” Bullock has remained in seclusion amid the intense media firestorm but has been accepting visits from close friends – including comedian George Lopez – at her Hollywood Hills home. She ventured out briefly last week to visit family friend Gabriel Brener but found herself hounded by paparazzi who captured the first image of the actress covered up in a large hat inside her chauffeur-driven car. James has opted to hide behind closed doors as well, having checked into the Sierra Tucson treatment facility in Arizona for “personal issues.” While a rep for the A-list actress spoke out when the scandal first broke to deny she was planning to divorce her husband of five years, “Radar” reports the only reason she’s holding back from officially pulling the plug is fear.

“The main reason Sandra has not filed divorce papers yet is because she doesn’t want to trigger Jesse into attacking her publicly and revealing her secrets. Sandra is one of the most private actresses in Hollywood. She’s been worried that if she drops divorce papers on him now he’ll want revenge and will try to harm her reputation.”

Oh please, is all I have to say to that one. There are children involved here and my guess is that if Sandra is stalling, it’s for their benefit alone as she has stated repeatedly she plans to stay in their lives. Even if there was some skeleton in her closet, there aren’t a whole lot of skeletons as ugly as the ones her husband has.

Gerard Butler Says Sorry

Friday, April 2nd, 2010

Gerard Butler is seen here looking sexy as ever in his scruffed out eurotrash look posing for photographs at the L.A. premiere of his new film “How to Train Your Dragon” held at the Gibson Amphitheater. What else can we say but that he is gorgeous, and what else can he say but that…he is sorry. The Bounty Hunter star Gerard Butler has offered an apology to an old school friend after making false claims about her on TV. The 40-year-old Scottish actor recently made the comments about Julie Morrison on US TV and said he was sorry if he caused offence. Talking about Morrison, he said to Jimmy Kimmel that she was ‘someone you’d end up behind the bike sheds with’. He said to UK newspaper Daily Record:

“Julie Morrison and I have been great friends since we were kids – in fact, she was one of my best friends at school and we have always stayed in contact over the years. My performance and comments were completely in jest in my poor attempt at comedy. These were comments in an extremely light-hearted, late-night interview on a talk show on the other side of the world and they were never taken seriously by the audience for one moment. Admittedly in hindsight, it was pretty bad judgement on my part to bring up Julie’s name in a public interview and I regret that the comments were picked up and reprinted by the media back home. I called Julie to apologise and she’s been incredibly understanding and gracious, considering all the unwelcome and undeserved attention that has been thrown on her. She’s been amazing. She knows me well and gets that I was just fooling around. We’re still great friends and I’ll be catching up with her soon when I’m next back home.”

So now you know. He’s not JUST sexy. He’s a nice guy too that…is also human and not afraid to admit it. Damn. I hate it when the hot ones give us more reason to lust after them.
