What Men Really Think: Is Jessica Simpson Fat?

I'd like to kick off a new column of mine, What Men Really Think with the topic of Jessica Simpson.

It appears PCM was on the front end of the news this past week readers when we posted the story about Jessica Simpson being fat: Jessica Simpson Eats Tony Romo. I myself took the position that Jessica Simpson got fat. Now the latest rage is to catch more photos of Jessica Simpson looking fat.

Many other bloggers and gossip sites ran with it, and will continue to run with it.

But what of the mainstream media? Like E! and Entertainment Tonight. They took the so-called high road and defended Jessica. Well, here is the truth. Not really. Let's face it. Jessica Simpson put on weight and it is news. It's news because she has marketed herself as a vixen. When she loses that shape, men will notice. Editors and writers that are men, will comment. Even female editors that have it in for beautiful women that fall from grace will run with it; I believe you women have a term for that type of woman. Some of you are even foolish enough to be proud of it. I digress.

And what of E! and Entertainment Tonight? Oh... they notice too. They want to ride the wave of Jessica's increased size and proportions. They mask their goal of milking this news by playing the "good guy" card. In this case, trying to say that Jessica is not fat or finding other celebs to say Jessica Simpson is not fat. Of course they are obviously going to sympathize and say nice things!

But readers... if you want the truth, you don't ask any celebrity to tell the truth unless it paints them in a positive light. That is why E! and Entertainment Tonight didn't ask Howard Stearn for a quote. Nor did they ask me. But that is why you are here reading my column.


Here is the truth. Is Jessica Simpson fat? Well, but a man's standards she is not obese. But men are critical. On a whole. And while some men like women that are bigger or fat, most men look for a woman that has curves in the right places. Big chest, small waist and curvy bubble butts. Jessica lost that. For now. Maybe for good. But she is NOT the slender Jessica that was in the Dukes of Hazard. She isn't even the one before she met Tony Romo (QB Dallas Cowboys). Why she is bigger is her business. I really don't care. I never listened to her sing, and I don't know why she is even a celebrity other than her looks. The woman has been a stunner for years. It shows the level of mediocrity of what we Americans accept for entertainers in that we put more merit on looks than substance. There are great bands out there with no air-play while radio hands us music with no soul from pop divas.

Jessica Simpson got fat. And fat is a relative term here. Is she huge? No, of course not. But ask any guy at a water cooler if she is fat now and they will say yes. She was slender, now she's not. The short answer you'll get is, "she's fat" but it's meant as a relative term. It's how men's minds operate. Ask them in the presence of any woman, and they'll lie just like we do to our wives when they put on weight and ask is if they look fat in a dress.

But if you want the truth, you found it here. Men do think she got fat. And for her, that is her every reason for being on a stage or in front of a camera. With no dopamine triggering in our brains, we are more prone to actually expecting to be entertained. Dukes of Hazard defines that point. I mean tell me one song of Jessica Simpson's that has made top 40? Hell, tell me one song of Jessica Simpson's?

Do you expect me to brow beat this woman for putting on weight? No I won't. I'm just calling it like I see it. And to all you celebrities that are on camera and video defending poor Jessica, I get it. But don't think I don't know the truth. You will be at a party among friends saying the same damn thing as everyone else... "I can't believe it, Jessica got fat!" Hypocrites.

The only thing this type of news really does is pave the way for the next Jessica Simpson. So who is going to step up and take center stage? Lady GaGa? I hear she had a nose job. Pick, pick, pick.

And of course readers, if you want the truth you'll find it here at PCM. I for one won't run down celebrities without cause and will tell it like it is. Remember the name, Kitt Badlove. Stop back soon for another column of: What Men Really Think.

2008's Real Entertainer of the Year - The E-Trade Baby

First off this is not an endorsement of E-Trade. I used E-Trade, they suck. They fee you to death and sell your personal info. But hey, that's why you have the E-Trade Baby! He makes it OK to sign-up with companies that suck.

And really, isn't the E-Trade Baby way cooler than Tina Fey? He's out of the gate in 2009 for Entertainer of the Year. If you liked his E-Trade on Blackberry commercial, this assortment of out-takes that won't make the SuperBowl ads this year will have you laughing hard.

Kitt's personal favs:

"Mom Put's me in time-out this Bulls--t! Complete Bulls--t!"

"Her online profile says she's like 5'11" and I'm like--pounds maybe!"

Kittens on a Roomba!

How CUTE are THEY?!

Don't worry, a KITTEH was not harmed in the making of this masterpiece. One or two might have gotten a case of the dizzies, though.

This YouTube clip should become a full-fledged game show. That's what it feels like I'm watching.

(SPOILER ALERT: I just knew the greyish and white kitten would be the last one on the Roomba. He has determination in his eyes...)

Why I Hate the Post Office

Everything is down-sizing. It's considered a good day if there's no news story about layoffs in the morning paper. Yesterday, while watching the news, I just about blew a fuse after I heard that budget cuts will be affecting the United States Postal Service. Instead of laying off workers, they are considering only delivering five days a week instead of the current six. So what, does that mean that my mail carrier will only deliver two days instead of his usual three?

I've always held the opinion that the Post Office is like the bank only worse. They both have horrible hours, rude (and unreliable) employees, outrageous fees and nothing is guaranteed. Take this for example, you can pay at least $15 to send something overnight, however overnight delivery is not guaranteed. So you're pretty much paying extra so that something may get there faster.

The other thing that makes the post office like the bank is that all activity is governed by a "roll-over" time. In banking if you make a deposit, no matter how early or late you make it, if you don't make it before the roll over time it won't be counted during that day's work. For example, most banks end their work day at 3 p.m., meaning you can deposit at 2:59 p.m. for it to be counted in that day's work, but if you make you're deposit at 3:01 p.m. you're out of luck. Your deposit won't go in until the next day. Same with the post office. If you put you're mail into the box after the pickup time, you're screwed.

Here's my question. I walk down the street, and I see that each mailbox has the exact same pick-up time. How can at least 25 mailboxes, spread out over a 3 mile stretch all be picked up at the same time when there is one guy picking up everything? Someone is bound to be screwed over. Like I said, it's the bank but worse.

Next, we move to actual delivery. I live in the city. I've lived here for a little over two months. In my two months I have already had three letters not delivered to me. Why? I don't know. One person even resent the same envelope that was not delivered, replacing only the stamp, and guess what? It made it here.

Are they just lazy, or just stupid? I don't know. I can tell you that my carrier is just lazy. The guy only comes three times a week. How do I know? Two simple ways. Number 1: I used to come home everyday for lunch at the same time he delivered down my street. Number 2: you can tell by the dates on the envelopes. There would be two dates under the sorted for delivery section, meaning that two days worth of mail came on the same day.

I know I could just not be that popular, and taking out my insecurities on the post office, but sadly that is not the case. I know this because the junk mail never stops - ever. In a world where junk mail comes everyday, when you find it coming every other day, you know something is off. I know the junk mailers aren't laying off so that leaves me with only one other option - my mailman is lazy.

And on to the "rain, sleet, snow" thing. That is the biggest bunch of baloney I have ever heard. We got snow two days ago. So obviously given the post office oath they should be delivering. Untrue. I had a package that should have been delivered two days ago but it was not. I know that it was supposed to be delivered because the USPS tracker stated that the package was "out for delivery," two days ago. Alas, I did not get it until yesterday. (I also didn't get any mail two days ago, yet yesterday I was bombarded with three days worth of mail.)

And here's the icing on the cake. Once I received a "sorry we missed" you ticket for a package because I wasn't home. The funny thing is that I didn't leave my apartment all day. The mailman, too lazy to walk to my door to deliver the package, simply left the note without making any attempt to deliver the package.

Speaking of package tracking, that is the worst system ever. They only update it once a day, the terms are vague, and the system is inaccurate. Once, while living in New Castle County, Delaware I ordered something from Amazon.com. One of the Amazon warehouses is located in New Castle County, which results in speedy deli every. Strangely enough though the package, which was shipped from the Delaware warehouse, was routed to Philadelphia, before heading back to Delaware. When I lived at that address all Amazon packages would go from the warehouse, to the local post office, then to my mailbox, all within a day. The side trip to Philadelphia resulted in a week long wait for a package I could have retrieved myself from the warehouse in under an hour, round trip.

So what am I saying? If you're gonna stop delivery for one day USPS, use that time to organize your obviously faulty operating system. There is no reason that things should run the way they do. I loathe going to the post office more than the bank. Maybe some layoffs are in need. Layoff your current staff and give all the motivated individuals who recently lost their jobs something to do. And President Obama, please consider in you wave of bureaucratic reforms to reform the post office. God knows it needs it.

Did Nip Tuck Go Too Far with Breast Mutilation Scene?

Warning, this hokey but graphic scene is not safe for kids or at work.



It happens. TV producers, writers, everyone in the process of delivering entertainment to the masses tries to gain attention. Call them stunts or gimmicks. Nip Tuck seems to take great pride in pushing buttons. Have they gone too far this time?

Well, at least it wasn't a Vagisil ad...

Most celebrities have cringe-worthy jobs they took on when trying to make it in Tinseltown (that usually involve porn and/or the casting couch), but for 36-year-old Kerri Russell, her mortifying moment is still being passed down thru the generations. At just the tender age of 17, Russell appeared as the “other woman” in Bon Jovi’s hit music video “Always.”

“I was recently in a movie theater, and this young kid in the front was like ‘are you the girl in the green bra in the Bon Jovi video?’ I could have died,” the “Bedtime Stories” starlet told Tarts, shaking her head with mortification.

Girl, it's not that serious. Always is a GREAT Bon Jovi song (though Bed of Roses still ranks as the best Bon Jovi song ever written), even if the video IS a little cheeseball. I get such a kick out of watching the video. It’s so bad, it's good! Carla Gugino and Jake Noseworthy star in it as well - it’s so funny, they ALL went on to successful careers afterward! Check it out.

Escaping Criminals Get the Rod

These two have got to win some sort of stupidity award. The video shows criminals in New Zealand attempting escape, only to be taken down... by a light post. The two morons on the run were hindered in their escape when they forgot they were handcuffed together. In a Three Stooges like maneuver, the two shimmied left, the shimmied right, only to find themselves caught around the pole. Apparently they don't know their left from their right. After their embarrassing crash they were apprehended by authorities.

You're a Mean One, Faye Dunaway...

...and we LOVE you for it! Cheers, you catty old broad...CHEERS!

There's a vicious, vicious, vicious remake of Bonnie & Clyde currently in the works starring Hilary Duff and Kevin Zegers. I know Satan is behind this slaughter party. What's next?! A remake of Pulp Fiction starring Zac Efron and Demi Lovato?! (Oh no...I just gave Michael Bay an idea!)

Well, Faye Dunaway was in the original, as you know. The Chicago Sun-Times says that when she was told about it, she said, ''Couldn't they at least cast a real actress?''

Hilary Duff's jumbo Chiclets were knocked out of her teeth after hearing those 8 beautiful words from Mistress Faye. That must have felt like a...WIRE HANGAAAAAAAAAAAAR! The truth always destroys.

(It bears stating, at this point, that the REAL Bonnie and Clyde were NOT lookers like Warren Beatty and Faye Dunaway...or Hillary Duff and Kevin Zegers, for that matter...)

Watch Out for the Zombies!

Think about this. You're driving down the road, when you see a digital road sign. What now? Traffic, construction? Just what I need, another delay. I'm gonna be late.

Wait. What? "Caution. Zombies Ahead?"

Yes, that's right. A few hackers in Austin, Texas reprogrammed these digital signs to warn motorist of imminent doom at the hands of the undead. But apparently, hacking digital road signs is the new practical joke sweeping the nation.

The Zombie warning in Austin is just one of the many practical jokes sweeping the nation. Reports of changed traffic signs have surfaced from San Francisco and Boston. While MIT students could have easily figured out how to hack the Boston area signs, what accounts for actions of the other pranks?

According to i-hacked.com many digital signs are easily reprogrammable. Simply open up the back, enter the password (most of them are default or simplistic) and change the display message to whatever you want.

Easy enough. Of course the hard part is changing the password without being spotted by highway patrol.

French Fried

Is this the same woman? 51 Year old French model Inès de la Fressange hit the runway with youthful smile and it's big talk of how this older woman looks so young.

But that is it folks. Looks... Sorta... Kinda... Well if you keep the camera at a distance. Looking young on stage and then looking young off stage are two different things.

Am I picking on her? No. I applaud her for taking the limelight. But I also think of the vanity and egotism it takes to be a model. That element of narcissim leaves her open to criticism. If she is going to step forward with the claim of youthful looks, then she really should have them. Naturally. Inès is no Raquel Welch who is now 68. That's 17 years older and still way hot. Here is one of Raquel with make-up and without. You be the judge.

So remember in the words of Martin Fry of ABC, "She may look pretty but there's make-up on her face"

Michael Jackson SUED!

Hey, we have to stimulate the economy somehow...

John Landis - the genius behind the Thriller music video - is suing for the 50% of the profits owed to him over the past 4 years.

Back in 1983, Landis' people entered into a contract with Jackson's people, granting Landis 50% of profits earned from the video.

Landis says that Jackson - or whoever is running his troubled finances - has failed to "provide any accounting of the Thriller profits for the past four years 'and earlier', and failing to pay Landis his 50 percent cut of the net proceeds."

The most troubling aspect of the case, however, is that there doesn't seem to be anyone in charge of the crumbling King of Pop's Financial Kingdom, except for a "mysterious Los Angeles physician" named Tohme Tohme.

Stan Lee SUED!

Well...this will make ComiCon a little awkward...

Marvel is now facing a new suit!

The shareholders of Stan Lee Media, Inc. filed suit yesterday against Stan Lee, his wife, Marvel Comics, Marvel Chairman Issac Perlmutter, and former Marvel chief executive officer Avi Arad, for over $750 million! That's about half the proceeds of Spider-Man, Iron Man, and X-Men.

According to the suit, Lee, Permutter, Arad and Marvel denied Stan Lee Media shareholders their rights in ownership to 50% of the characters created by Lee. This is apparently the result of Lee transferring all of his interest in the characters he created for Marvel over to Stan Lee Media back in 1998.

Now, Stan Lee Media shareholders claim that Lee and the others “improperly colluded to hide and misappropriate financial interests in Lee's creations assigned to Stan Lee Media in 1998 and reaffirmed in 1999.”

They claim that the money Lee was paid should have gone to the company.

Marvel filed a response stating the suit was filled with "ridiculous claims" and argues that the suit is seeking claims from past cases.

The company's attorney, Martin Garbus, said "It's a very different lawsuit. It's different money," adding that Lee "made a deal. That money should have gone to the corporation."

Jessica Simpson SUED!

Things are really not going well for Jessica Simpson!

Back in 2005, she shot an exercise video for the "Speedfit System." (See above)

She was desperate for work even back then...and apparently suffering from a bit of the Lindsay Lohan because she was reportedly "a mess during the shoot," showing up "tipsy." Or do they mean "ditzy?"

Either way, the company asked for a do-over, which Simpson refused, and now, owner Alex Astilean is suing Jessica for a $10 million breach of contract.

Jessica should do more than reshoot the video, she should sign up for the program - stat!

More Corporate Woes

Starbucks announced on Wednesday that they are….

- Closing 300 stores
- Eliminating 6,000 store workers
and
- Laying off an additional 700 corporate jobs

It was only a matter of time! In some cities (*cough cough NEW YORK CITY cough cough*), there are more than one Starbucks within one or two blocks of each other!

PCM Buzz: New Music

PCM loves buzzworthy new music. Check out The Lights! The Lights have just recorded their new single, Low Hundreds / Formerly Yours, at The Magic Garden Studios in Wolverhampton. The single, set for release in May, is produced by renowned producer Gavin Monaghan, who has recently recorded with Travis, Editors & Kings of Leon.

The Lights are a lovely burst of energy, consisting of five bright-eyed individuals with the heart and determination to be heard all over. Their sound is like nobody else, unique, eclectic and intimately epic with a touch of old enough to know better! With a highly promising array of unique sounds, ranging from soft and passionate to loud staggering moments, they've perfectly blended each other's influences and abilities to create one magnetic and appealing force.

The live Lights experience is electric and frequently spine-tingling, rather than a bunch of college kids recycling one catchy hook, they actually sound like a real working class band with the fire, heart and poise that playing and writing together for years has afforded them. FOR MORE INFO:

Razzie nominated Kim Kardashian saw a chance to snatch some publicity, so she piggybacked on all the fat-flack Jessica Simpson's been receiving, defending the "curvier" country singer.

I love high-waisted jeans, I loved that belt, and her hair looked fabulous," adding, "When I saw that picture, I knew everyone was going to say something. And I thought, 'You know what? Leave Jessica alone!' She's fabulous, she's a really sweet girl, and I admire her for putting up with it."

Hrithik Roshan injured shooting for 'Kites'

Shooting for home production "Kites" has been jinxed for Bollywood star Hrithik Roshan. After hurting his knees while doing a dangerous car stunt in Las Vegas in October last, the actor hurt his arm at the Filmistan Studio in Mumbai Tuesday. "Hrithik hurt his arm while doing a stunt shot for ’Kites’ at the Filmistan studio.

He was breaking a glass with a rod and one piece of glass flew and hurt him. It’s a minor injury - there’s nothing major," a source close to Hrithik told IANS. Hrithik suffered many injuries after he performed some daring stunts in "Krrish" and "Dhoom 2". He had torn the ligament in his right knee and continued working despite the pain.

Towards the latter half of 2008, Hrithik underwent surgery in the US and spent nearly two months recovering but his tryst with injuries continues. "Kites", directed by Anurag Basu, is being touted as featuring Hrithik’s most sensuous role till date.

He stars opposite US-based Spanish model Barbara Mori. The film is about an Indian boy’s romantic affair with a Latina girl and their predicament as they do not understand each other’s language. It also stars actress Kangana Ranaut.

Ranbir's mom unsure about Deepika

For quite sometime, Ranbir Kapoor and Deepika Padukone are not going steady in their relationship and with so many ups and downs in their life, their parents are also uncertain about their future. Ranbir’s mother Neetu Singh who already dreamt Deepika as her daughter-in-law is now seems unconfident about Deepika. She raised the eyebrows of all when she was quoted as saying, "Deepika is just another girlfriend in Ranbir’s life."

When asked to clarify the reason of her doubts, she explained, "Both of them are very young. It’s a long way to go before marriage. No one knows what future holds for them." In many occasions, Neetu spotted with Deepika. They made their first public appearance during the Lakme fashion week and caught the eyes of all. It was also reported that Deepika is the choice of Ranbir’s parents and they even accepted her as their bahu. But now with so many differences in Ranbir and Deepika’s life, their future of being one seems swinging. Not only their parents but Ranbir and Deepika themselves are uncertain about what future has stored for them. The sizzling duo is busy with their respective project and hardly gets time for clearing up their differences.

No, Sweetie Darling, NO!!!

You can't see me right now, but I am swearing like a sailor on the high seas. We all already know that Fox is going to Hell in a handbasket for obvious reasons, but all the veins Bill O'Reilly has popped in the past, present, and future PALES in comparison to what I'm about to tell you.

Variety says Kristen Johnston is in talks to play Edina Monsoon in the pilot episode of the "American remake" of Absolutely Fabulous. Kristen was at a table read with Fox execs last Friday. Kathryn Hahn was also in the table read, but it's not known what role she helped butcher. I'm guessing Patsy?

You know who should play Edina and Patsy? Jennifer Saunders and Joanna Lumley! And only them! Kristen Johnston is fine, but she's looking a little like a Manhattan tortured wife who eats pills instead of food.

"Well, maybe she will work then?," you naively say?
NO! She won't. Nobody will.

This is going to be the worst show in the history of television. This is what we do in America: we take amazing TV shows from other countries, ruin them, and try to find ways to get them canceled in record time.

(Although Kath & Kim is still breathing and I'm not sure why. I'll have to ask Satan that during our weekly conference call with Ronald Reagan...)

Instead of doing mounds of coke, they are going to get really "zany" on too much Red Bull. Instead of trying to have an orgy and failing, they are going to be humiliated during a speed dating session. It's going to be absolutely rated G...for GARBAGE!

I just want to tell the American version of AbFab to "take a holiday, darling. South of France."

The Obesity Virus

Ok, everyone knows that being overweight is the world's leading epidemic. Type II diabetes is the world's number one disease, and according to scientists the world is progressively getting fatter.

That's old news. Here's the scary part. Don't let that guy sitting in the cubicle next to yours sneeze on you. (Yes, I know you're reading this at work. What else would you be doing?) No you won't catch a cold, but you may catch the obesity virus.

According to an English study, one in three people who are carrying around some extra baggage may be suffering from a "highly infectious cold-like virus, known as AD-36."

The study suggests that obesity can be caught by an airborne germ that could be causing obesity around the world. The study found that 33% of overweight adults have contracted the virus at some point in their lives, while the same is true for only 11% of lean adults.

While the research may suggest that being overweight may be cause by a virus, that is no excuse to blame those extra pounds on the virus. Whether the virus is real or not here's the cure.

Get out there and do some physical activity, don't wolf down a Big-Mac for lunch, and eat some fruits and veggies. Pretty simple right? I know it's not easy (I myself was overweight and lost 40 pounds), but you can do it. Trust me.

Jessica Simpson Eats Tony Romo

In a stunning development of bad clothing and hot bodies gone wrong... It appears Jessica Simpson has eaten her Dallas Cowboys quarterback boyfriend Tony Romo.

The real question is, Jessica! What have you done? Not only have you decided you don't love that hot body of yours and let it go to hell, you've gone with some sort of 1980's mom jeans look. Say it ain't so!

Well, at least we still have Jessica Alba. Err... I spoke too soon.

Get Kim Kardashian's Look

Airbrushing or not, we think Kim Kardashian looks fierce in a new picture published on her official site. Is Kim Kardashian's dark eye make-up a fashion hit or miss? Kardashian may have made her mistakes in the past and is considered a total airhead by many, but don't deny it, she looks good. Kim's dramatic eyes make for our PCM Picture Of The Day!

Want Kim's smokey look? Line the inside of your eye with dark eyeliner and pick an eyeshadow that you can lightly smudge all around the bottom of your eye near the lashes with a brush. But be careful! Don't make yourself look like you have a black eye and go overboard! We're talking sultry, not trashy here, ladies!

Chelsy Davy & Prince Harry Split

Chelsy Davy, the now ex-girlfriend of England's Prince Harry, was spotted leaving her home in Leeds, England yesterday. I think she may need to lay off the fake tanning, she looks orange. The sun doesn't shine that much in Great Britain, folks.

As for her split with Harry, Chelsy left it up to the social networking website Facebook to break the news to all of her friends. She reportedly went from "In a Relationship," to nothing. Leave it to Facebook! Everyone knows once it's on Facebook, your relationship status is OFFICIAL! ;)

An inside source told press, “They are two young people who have gone their separate ways for good. The relationship had run its course. It is entirely amicable and they hope to remain friends. Prince Harry still feels very protective of Chelsy and hopes that the media gives her some privacy.”

Jennifer Connelly For Revlon

Actress and now new Revlon spokeswoman, Jennifer Connelly, 38, was spotted shooting a commercial for the cosmetics company in a section of Brooklyn, NY over the weekend. She was joined on set by her actor hubby Paul Bettany. So how does Jennifer feel about being a make-up spokesgal?

Connelly said, “I am honored to be joining the Revlon family. Revlon is one of the great iconic brands of today and I am thrilled to be part of a company that has done so much for women around the world.”

Aside from her makeup gig, you can catch Jennifer on the big screen when the star-studded “He’s Just Not That Into You” hits theaters on February 6th. We read the book and thought it was entertaining. Seems like with the cast of this new movie, you can't go wrong, there are so many stars in it! Have you seen the previews?

Ginger Spice Engaged!

Our favorite redheaded Spice Girl, Geri Halliwell, a.k.a. Ginger Spice has announced that she’s gotten engaged to her mega-rich Italian beau Fabrizio Politi. The pair have been dating for approximately a month and are itching to walk down the isle! The couple's whirlwind romance began in December and they've been spotted taking trips to Paris and Maldives.

“There are no immediate plans for marriage as the couple are enjoying their engagement,” says Geri's reps. Let's hope they are smart and have a longgg engagement so they can, well, maybe get to know eachother. Otherwise, could this really end up going well? Ever hear of "The Honeymoon Phase," Geri?

Geri’s management firm also said: “We are delighted to announce the engagement of Geri Halliwell and Fabrizio Politi. As a token of their commitment to each other Fabrizio presented Geri with an engagement ring over the festive season.”

Preity Zinta Wants To Support Budding Cricketers

Preity Zinta’s interest in the game of cricket evolved when she actually bought herself a cricket team in the IPL, she owns owns Kings XI Punjab of the Indian Premier League (IPL), now wants to give a chance to budding cricketers at the grassroot level.

Her Kings XI Punjab will be holding a cricket seminar and a small 20-20 tournament in Chandigarh and Mohali where teams from Punjab, Haryana, Himachal Pradesh and Jammu and Kashmir will participate.

“My aim is to promote cricket at the grassroot level and to nurture new talent. I also want everyone involved to have fun,” Priety said.

We’re impressed Ms.Zinta!

Why So Classy?: The Rock of Love Edition

I think the term "Why So Classy?" was coined specifically for this show. I tell people not to bother with beauty paegents, The Swan, or even that dated Miss America show...Rock of Love takes the cake in class, refinery, and elegance.

And last night's performance was yet another fun-filled trash extravaganza! So many gems, in fact, that I don't know where to begin.

First and foremost, Taya fell off the stage during one of the challenges while wearing a slutty French maid outfit. The physical humor notwithstanding, if you're going to fall off the stage, you might as well be dressed like a slut with a feather duster. I felt for Taya, I really did...but I was a little surprised that Taya could fall any further since she's already hit rock bottom (i.e., appearing on this show).

Next, the skanks were told to "dress to impress" for Bret. Most of them wore your standard groupie uniform straight out of the Flirt Catalog, but Brittanayaaa (that's how she pronounces it) gets the "My Fair Lady" award for her oh-so-sophisticated denim panties. (This is a family-friendly blog, so I can't post the photos here...)
Some of you may not be impressed, but I am. And, apparantly, in Skank-ese, "dress to impress" translates into "dress to work the Hunts Point track."

Then, a drunken Ashley made out with one of the other skanks and flipped out after she saw the lady beast known as Beverly kissing on Bret's drummer. When Beverly denied it (even though she got caught on camera), Ashley responded with: "I want a cheeseburger." For the record, that is the correct response for EVERYTHING. Clip below:

And finally, let's end with some more words of wisdom from Ashley the Philosopher. When one of the girls gave Ashley the side-eye for being drunk and classy, she had this to say: "Get over it. People puke and they poop their pants."

Ashley is the Nietzsche of this generation!

Music Video Monday!

We've got two new releases from some Top 40 divas that we think you'll like. The first one comes from star Katy Perry. No silly antics this time around. No kissing girls, either. Singer Katy Perry has released her latest single, "Thinking Of You," and come out with a pretty deep music video for the power ballad, too. What are your thoughts on it? Should she just stick to her pop dance songs making fun of guys? I am a fan of this song but think the video is a bit too much.



Next comes a new music video from powerhouse singer Leona Lewis. Gossip Girl's Chase Crawford also stars with Lewis in the vid! This video was directed by Melina Matsoukas, who also directed the international version of Leona’s “Bleeding Love” video. Leona plays a criminal who gets arrested by an NYPD officer! Cute! Check out her new video below:

Angelina's "Blah" SAG Dress

Let me preface this by saying, yes, she is Angelina Jolie, she can wear anything and still look stunning. We get that. We're not completely dissing her here. That being said, I was not a fan of her outfit at the SAG Awards! As Michael O'Connor (fashion guru) told us, blue is in this year! Angelina got that part right! Otherwise, I felt like she looked very matronly, sort of like a "mother-of-the-bride" type get-up she decided to wear on the red carpet. No jewelry either?! Her simple look didn't do much for PCM. She's been playing it pretty safe lately on red carpet events. We haven't seen too much skin from Jolie. What are your thoughts?

What's the update on all the kids they're having? When asked by Access Hollywood if they’re ready for more, Brad said, “We average about two a year, so I guess we’re overdue, aren’t we?” Angie concurred, saying, “Yeah, I agree! If they come our way, we’d be happy to have them all. We love children.”

SAG Awards run up to Oscars

It's looking more and more like Heath Ledger will win The Best Supporting Actor Oscar as he has now posthumously won the Golden Globe and Screen Actors Guild Awards respectively for his portrayal of the Joker in what may be 2008's best film Batman: The Dark Knight. Gary Oldman accepted the award on Heath's behalf. "I'm quite emotional," said Oldman, "It is a great honor to be asked to accept this on behalf of Heath. He was an extraordinary young man with an extraordinary talent, and it is wonderful that you have acknowledged that and honored that talent tonight."

Other winners of the SAG Awards are:

Lifetime Achievement: James Earl Jones (presented by Forrest Whitaker)
Best Leading Actor: Sean Penn - Milk
Best Leading Actress: Meryl Streep - Doubt
Best Cast: Slumdog Millionaire
Best Supporting Actress: Kate Winslet - The Reader
Best Movie Stunt Ensemble: Batman: The Dark Knight

Two time Oscar winner Meryl Streep is as always modest on her long run as the most nominated actress in Oscar history (15) "Can I just say there is no such thing as the best actress, you know? There is no such thing as the greatest living actress," she continued "I am in a position where I have secret information, that I know this to be true, I am so in awe of the work of the women this year — nominated, not nominated — so proud of us girls. And everybody wins when we get parts like this."

Sean Penn downplayed his role as a gay male offering this superb perspective,

"As actors, we don't play gay, straight. We don't play any of these kinds of people. We play human beings, and this movie is something that all of us involved are so proud of," Then of course Sean went into sales mode, "This is a story about equal rights for all human beings."

From the big screen to little screen, Tina Fey continued her award winning ways with 30 Rock taking top honors for an ensemble award. Alec Baldwin (Best Male Comedy) won an individual award.

Hugh Laurie took home his second SAG in a row as Best Actor in a TV drama: House. Other winners:

Outstanding Male Performance TV/Miniseries: Paul Giamatti - John Adams
Outstanding Female Performance TV/Miniseries: Laura Linney - John Adams
Best Actress TV Drama: Sally Field - Brothers & Sisters
Best Drama: Mad Men
Best TV Stunt Ensemble: Heroes

Preity Zinta says, Narendra Modi should be India’s PM

After India’s top business honchos including Ratan Tata, Mukesh Ambani, Sunil Bharti Mittal, Anil Ambani, Kumarmangalam Birla and Politicians from completely different ideology CPM Muslim MP from Kerala Mr. Abdullakutti and Trinamool Congress leader Ms. Mamta Banerjee, Gujarat’s popular Chief Minister Narendra Modi has found one more recent public supporter and admirer, this time from Bollywood.

Bollywood film actress Preity Zinta in her latest interview praised Narendra Modi and said Narendra Modi should become India’s Prime Minister.

When Times of India group’s tabloid Mumbai Mirror asked Preity Zinta “Do you plan to enter politics?” Preity replied “More than one party has asked me to stand in the forthcoming elections but I have no interest in politics. Every political party is the same. I am open to supporting someone but not a party. I don’t support Hindu-Muslim politics. I certainly don’t support what happened in Godhra. Even Narendra Modi must have realised this and it won’t happen again. Till last year, I didn’t support Modi but today I support him with all my heart. He should be India’s Prime Minister. Look at how he has administered Gujarat. Every politician has something bad to his name but Modi is one politician who also has something good to his name. If we have five states like Gujarat, India will shine.”

Recently in Narendra Modi’s Vibrant Gujarat Global Investors Summit, Bollywood actors Paresh Rawal and Shatrughna Sinha were present. In past, item girl Rakhi Sawant had compared Modi with lion when she was in Ahmedabad. Last year Bollywood actor Anupam Kher had arranged a special preview of his film ‘A Wednesday’ for Modi in Gandhinagar and praised Modi.

Asin's only man in her life

The missy wouldn’t have imagined her life would take a hectic spell with busy days and sleepless nights. And now stepping into Bollywood, things are happening Asin’s way as she’s there on top-of-world with her debut ’Ghajini’ making high waves at box office. At the moment, the actress is busy shooting for Salman Khan’s ’London Dreams’ starring Salman Khan in the lead role along with Ajay Devagan. Ask her who’s the best Khan? Salman Ya Aamir? ’Mujhe Dhono Pasandh Hai’ is her only answer who continues adding ’both of them have their unique potentials that makes them superstars. Of course, Shah Rukh Khan is yet another biggie with charismatic appeal’. The Ghajini-girl would be spotted extremely glamorous in Sallu’s flick. And how about her personal life? ’Well, we are a small family and I am elated to remain with my dad and mum. My father takes care of my career and my parents know my dreams and potentials’. So is there a favorite man - ’My dad is the only man in my life’ adds the Mallu girl who hasn’t been to her hometown for past one year.

‘Slumdog Millionaire’ nominated in ten Oscar Categories!

The other big movie with a good number of nominations is the “”The Curious Case of Benjamin Button,” which bagged whopping 13 nominations including Best Picture and Best Actor for Brad Pitt.

Go Figure Robert Downey Jr. ...recovering addict is the most honest celeb

Oscar nominees Robert Downey Jr, Brad Pitt, and Anne Hathaway and Frank Langella recently took part in a round table discussion running up to this Oscar season. In it the celebrities did the usual tooting of their own horns. But one question brought out the BS-meters. We all have a BS Meter, and we regular people use when we watch the news or anything on TV. It's how we tell when we are being lied to and expected to buy it as the truth. After all, how many of us believe everything we hear and see on TV?

The group was asked if they ever Internet searched their own names. Taking the politically safe answer, Anne Hathaway at first denied it as if it would make her a narcissist. After all, I don't any of us regular folk consider Hollywood actors and actresses as vain self-serving out of touch with reality types. They are just... people. Right? And normal people do in fact google themselves, especially if they are smart. Right away my BS-meter goes off when Anne Hathaway denies googling herself. Fraud, narcissist.

Brad Pitt, wow. My man Brad. The guy we men aspire to be like... His answer? "Dear God. No. Never. First of all, I don't really know how to operate a computer."

Now I have to ask myself, do I believe this? It's either total BS or Brad is a modern day dumb azz. He can act like he is smart, but he is not actually smart? Is this why he fell for Angelina? Don't get me wrong, what man would toss that body out of bed, but do you marry such a woman? I can speak from experience a woman that good looking has one goal, to dominate you. Brad must have one thing going for him when I seen answer such as this. The guy can act! You wait folks, years from now when he and she are divorced. He'll want his balls back.

Which brings us to Robert Downey Jr. A man that has served hard time in jail for screwing up over and over. His pure willpower and talent is what has kept him alive I'm sure of it. But most of all, the guy is real. He opens his mouth and real words come out. If you ask me which of these guys I'd want to go play paintball with or go fishing, I have to admit ...now it's Robert Downey Jr. Why? Because he's not full of crap.

Downey chimed in with his answer to the google question: "Oh, I love all that (expletive) personally. Sorry. I love just it. Because it's a hoot. Some people overstate their support, like they know you. Other people are busy doing something else and just want to go on this chat site and say some despicable character assassination, which I honestly think: 'They kind of nailed it. I do have that shortcoming.' It's really fun."

Now of course sensing it's safe to now go into the water what does Hathaway do? She comes clean: "OK, I have a confession. I lied before when you asked if I Googled myself. I do. I'm embarrassed by it because I know how terrible it is. ... For a while, it cracked me up. I found a ton of humor in it. But recently it's changed. There's a big difference now where information is being reported as news. And I'm very uncomfortable with that." Go figure folks.

You have to ask yourself. Why is it we listen to these people at all? And to think thousands if not millions of Americans hang on the words of some of these celebrities for political insight and answers.

Well... at least they can act which if you think about it, is a lot of BS.

Mandira slaps Gautam!!

Well yes, Mandira Bedi did slap GautamKapur as he cheats on her! Wondering what all this about, well it happened on the sets of Nisha Chainani’s ’42 kms’ where the two play a married couple.

We hear that the scene was very volatile and Mandira gave Gautam a stinging slap across his face when she came to know that Gautam Kapur was cheating on her after she tailed a private detective behind his back! Gautam essays the character of an advertising magnet in the movie and justifies the affair by the excuse of marital boredom. "I did expect a slap but not with that intensity...it was definately a slap to remember!" laughs the actor. Well…Ouchhh is all we can say!!

Shruthi Haasan’s tattoo

For those who can read Tamil, she need not turn around to reveal her identity! The tattoo says it all. Yes! You guessed it right! Shruthi Haasan! At the moment, for the whole of Tamil Nadu and even Bollywood, Shruthi only means Shruthi Haasan, such is her charisma! The beautiful belle has got her name tattooed on her back in Tamil. Ever since she decided to show it off when she was felicitated by a famous Chennai-based magazine recently, it has become the talk of the town! We bet you are going to spend the whole day admiring her beauty, especially the photogenic smile of this versatile personality! Sometimes, she is the rock star with black-polished nails, metal rings, clad in a figure-hugging leather suit; sometimes she is the flamboyant model clad in the best labels of the world; and sometimes in ethnic Indian wear, she is the personification of a complete Indian girl. Switching between all these modes with ease, Shruthi Haasan has become a youth icon for a large number of youngsters in India, so much that she is closely watched by girls of her age throughout the country to know more about fashion! Just like her parents, she’s a real head-turner!

Recently, she said that she is going to continue to sing for her band (The Extramentals) as well as act. Right now, she is acting in Bollywood film Luck opposite Aamir Khan’s nephew Imran Khan. With more Tamil movies that suit such a flamboyant personality being made these days, it might not be long before we see Shruthi in a Tamil film too.

Jay-Z's Racist Rant at the Inaugural Ball.

Here is Jay-Z's & Young Jeezy's racist rant at the Inaugural Ball. I'm not sure what else there is to add.
Young Jeezy:"I know ya'll thanking a lot of people right now...I want to thank two people. I want to thank the mother****er overseas that threw two shoes at George Bush, and I want to thank the mother****ers who helped them move they s*** up out the White House. Get it moving b*tch! My president is mother****ing black!"

Jay-Z: "My president is black, in fact he's half white/So even in a racist mind he's half right/If you've got a racist mind it's alright/My president is black, but his house is all white!"


"...never thought I'd say this s***, baby I'm good. you can keep your p**** because I don't want no more Bush. no more war. no more iraq. no more white lies, my president is black"

"...no more white lies, my president is black!..." and the crowd in the club repeated his last line over and over again.
I added the Foxnews bit on the video, as it was the only news outlet that reported it. I'm hoping Obama's election has brought a new era on race relations in this country. I'm also hoping that someone tells Jay-Z about this development.
Lose the hate, dude.

No Doubt & Paramore To Head Summer Tour

We're predicting this is going to be one hot ticket to have this summer! It seems that Gwen Stefani and the rest of the No Doubt gang are about to announce a summer tour for summer 2009! (Had to put the 'Tragic Kingdom' CD attached to this blog!) What a great CD that was, right?!

Stefani has reportedly said that she and the boys are ready to go out on tour to have some fun playing their old favorites and to get reinspired to make new music again! The band has been rumored to be getting back together and reuniting! This is great news, we love No Doubt. It's only fitting that another girl-fronted alternative band, Paramore, is also on the roster to tour with No Doubt this summer! We're thinking that's one powerhouse tour that's going to bring some good music! We're looking forward to it! Yay Gwen!

They WHAT?!?!?!

Watch. Just...watch.
(not necessarily NSFW, but may require some, uh, creativity in explaining it to younglings...)



---

I sort of have to wonder how many Detroiters spit out their morning coffee when they heard this. And shouldn't a "love doctor" have heard of the act in question? (Guess she never saw Chasing Amy...)

So, Doc, THAT'S the secret to a lasting relationship? No wonder mine never worked out...oy.

Sigourney Weaver Performs Live Basic Instinct Show

There is nothing like a bunch of women sitting around gossiping. But often it's not what they say but what they do that is more interesting. If you missed The View on ABC today you did yourself a favor. You will sleep well tonight.

You'd hope a woman of 59 would have the whole 'class' thing down by now but Sigourney Weaver's upskirt flash on live TV startled everyone who had their eyes open. I may have nightmares just thinking about it. I'm certain this is the View's plan in attempting to force men not to tune in during the day.

The incident occurred when Sigourney went for a couch hug with Joy Behar the show's resident angry woman - outlasting Rosie O'Donnell in the shows dual angry woman phase. So offering Joy a little love made perfect sense as angry women need love too. It seems that Sigourney wanted to make the most of the moment.

I'll try not to close my eyes tonight when I sleep. Unfortunately now you may have a hard time sleeping tonight too.

Travolta Family Faces Extortion Scheme

While still dealing with the tragic loss of their son, Jett, John Travolta and wife Kelly Preston are now dealing with extortion.

The Travolta extortion scheme revolves around a cell phone picture taken of son Jett as he lay dying in the ambulance.

It is believed that the photo was taken by one of the paramedics entrusted to help save Jett's life. The other person involved in the scheme is a local politician in the Bahamas, where the teen passed away.

How sleazy!

The men are threatening to sell the photo to the highest bidder if Travolta doesn't pay their million dollar ransom.

What an awful thing to have to deal with!

An attorney for the Travolta family said, "Regretably in a time of such terrible grief there are often a few individuals who attempt to make false claims in hopes of making millions of dollars. We will never let that happen."

We hope they get to the bottom of this, and that whoever is responsible for the extortion gets what they deserve!
