I shall always remember this day as the day that Paris Hilton was sentenced to 45 days in jail for violating her probation. TMZ.com reports… Judge Michael T. Sauer handed down the harsh sentence, telling Paris she will not be allowed work release, furloughs, use of an alternative jail or …
Los Angeles prosecutors want Paris Hilton to spend 45 days in jail for violating her probation. I TOTALLY AGREE! They also want the “heiress” to wear an alcohol monitoring device (much like the one worn by Michelle Rodriguez) and stay away from booze for 90 days, while the ankle monitor …
So what should a twice divorced, mother of two, just out of rehab, tore-back pop star do to revive her career? Why, give a surprise concert in San Diego, California of course! (And by “surprise” I mean everyone knew about it days before.)…

I love American Idol. I love The Simpsons. Therefore, I love this: Elvis is The King. Celine Dion is frightening. This is kinda creepy, but I like it: And of course, Jack Black always rocks: VIDEO NO LONGER AVAILABLE Fun facts about Jack Black: His parents, who were both rocket …
Back in December, I asked, Celebrity Morgue – Creepy or Cool?. Whatever your answer, a bunch of you have visited the Celebrity Morgue and have gone back for more. As have I. Most all death (but more so celebrity death) is fascinating to humans.…
I’m so happy for Larry Birkhead. I hope everything related to Dannielynn’s custody goes his way. Mighty Mo has a few words on the subject too… – We can only hope for the best. It is my hope that Larry and Virgie can come to a amiable agreement.…
I’m always getting on my boyfriend about how he needs to drink more water. I’m sure you can relate in one way or another.Maybe I’ll print out this list and put it on the fridge so I can point to it the next time he (or I) want Coke instead …
My friend Mighty Mo has taken it upon herself (much to my pleasure) to be my personal reporter on the Anna Nicole Smith Drama. She’s turning into quite an expert on the subject. Here are her latest reports. And be sure to read a comment she left on my last …
Earlier today, Leslie Moonves, CBS’s President and CEO, announced the decision to fire shock-jock Don Imus. “There has been much discussion of the effect language like this has on our young people, particularly young women of color trying to make their way in this society,” he said, “That consideration has …
UPDATE: MSNBC has decided to drop its simulcast of Imus in the Morning. This decision will not affect his nationally syndicated show, which is controlled by CBS Corp. So I guess some side won, but I’m not really sure which one.…
If you haven’t already heard, today Larry Birkhead was revealed as the biological father of the late Anna Nicole Smith’s daughter, Dannielynn. A fact that has pretty much always been known to be true, but now it’s official. It was announced Monday that Howard K.…
Halle Berry is one of the hottest women in Hollywood. Even when she’s literally kissing the ground. Albeit, it was her new star on the Walk of Fame, but still, she’s kissing the ground that tons of people have walked on.…
So it looks like my computer has bought the farm and is no longer with us. There are some sales going on around me, so hopefully I can find something this weekend. I must admit, I feel very lost without it.…
So apparently my home computer needed to get its life in order. It decided to crash last night, and now needs to go to rehab. He’ll probably take the bed left vacant by Britney Spears. Anyway, I’m doing my best to get things up and running again (I’m writing this …
I find it interesting that the clips of the Donald Trump and Rosie O’Donnell brawl seem to be getting more air play than the scuffles between the Democratic candidates for president. What does Hillary have to say that can surpass Isaiah Washington’s comments about Patrick Dempsey and T.R.…
Actress Cameron Diaz is what they call “scary pretty.” She is a living, breathing testament to the plain and simple fact that there’s a paper-thin line between gorgeous and hideous. With her high cheekbones, prominent mouth and a nose that must have once belonged to a prizefighter in another life, …
Our favorite red headed Hollywood drunk has been seen out and about lately, partying like a rock star. Exactly what a person should be doing right out of rehab, don’t you think? Although Lindsay Lohan has not recently been photographed with booze in her hand, she has taken up chain …
I saw Donald Trump in San Francisco on Sunday, at the Real Estate and Wealth Expo, put on by the Learning Annex. He’s actually quite entertaining in person. Has a potty mouth too. Which was just fine by me. I learned a lot.…
Angelina Jolie has adopted another child; this time a 3-year-old boy from Vietnam. Although his birth name is Pham Quang Sang, Angelina has changed it to Pax Thien Jolie — “Pax” is Latin for “peace” and “Thien” means “sky” in Vietnamese.…
After you read this, I’m sure you’ll agree that the expression “going bananas” comes from the effects bananas have on the brain. Bananas contain three natural sugars – sucrose, fructose and glucose combined with fiber. A banana gives an instant, sustained and substantial boost of energy.…
Tori Spelling gave birth to a boy earlier today (Tuesday). Congratulations Donna Martin! Hollywood Grind My sister’s baby was due on Sunday (the 11th), but it has yet to make an appearance. I’m so excited about being an auntie! I won’t get to the see the baby in person until …
The celebrity ballroom dancing competition show, Dancing With The Stars, is back next Monday, March 19th, on ABC (check local listings). The “stars” this go round are: ** Joey Fatone of boy band N’Sync fame ** Billy Ray Cyrus and his achy breaky heart ** Female boxing champ Laila Ali …
…but certainly not in peace. The Comfort and Sweetness of Peace After the clouds, the sunshine, after the winter, the spring, after the shower, the rainbow, for life is a changeable thing. After the night, the morning, bidding all darkness cease, after life’s cares and sorrows, the comfort and sweetness …
Anna Nicole Smith’s body has been transported to the Bahamas for her burial today. Although she will finally be in the ground (I wonder how nasty her corpse is), she will still not be resting in peace. The battle continues. According to the news blurb I just heard, Daniel’s biological …
Matthew McConaughey is my husband. He just doesn’t know it yet. My friends and family know it, or at least they are kind enough to indulge my fantasy, and are always on the look out for him. It’s so nice when loved ones enable harmless delusions*.…
February is a tag-on month. It didn’t even exist when the Romans first started what would become our calendar. The goal was to merge the moon’s 29 ½ day month with the sun’s 365 ¼ day year. The first attempt was made by Romulus, Rome’s founder, who included 10 months, …
In the Awards family, the Oscars are the stuffy aunt whose opinion the family respects and around whom the family is on their best behavior. Everyone wears their best (or so they think) and they are polite and smile and thank everyone under the sun and lose with grace.…
Okay, I don’t really want to kick someone when they’re down, but……OH MY GOODNESS BRITNEY SPEARS! What the heck kind of crazy colors is she seeing in her world? I actually had a conversation with my mom last night about the chaos that is Britney Spears.…
UPDATE: As quickly as she checked in, Britney Spears checked out of rehab. For more information and rumors, visit: The Superficial Let’s see, in the past week Britney Spears has checked in and out of rehab, shaved her head, and gotten two new tattoos.…
Below is a Motivation Note from Motivational Speaker and Author, Jewel Diamond Taylor. I have no idea who gave it to me. The message really hit home for me, and I think it needs to be shared and passed on. Especially to Britney Spears, whose recent behavior is obviously an …
Like I said the other day, it’ s Hollywood and the tides change quickly, this time by Britney Spears as she shaved off all of her hair. I’m not kidding! It’s gone. She’s bald. She sort of looks like a cross between Demi Moore from G.I.…
Finally, the proof I’ve been waiting for. Here is a picture of Jayden James Federline, the second child* born to Britney Spears and Kevin Federline. In other Britney Spears news….apparently she checked into rehab a few days ago, only to check out 24 hours later.…
Below you will find some celebrity baby pictures. Can you guess who they are? Some of the pictured celebrities aren’t really “babies”, but they’re still little and cute. The answers are below the group of celebrity baby pictures; they’re upside down, so you’ll have to tweek your head to read …
The sad fact is, 50% of marriages end in divorce. Divorce is often a very hard period in someone’s life. But sometimes, a divorce is a time to celebrate. Perhaps it is the end to an abusive relationship, or maybe the woman has finally mustered up the strength and knowledge …
Ask almost any woman about her wedding dress and I bet she’ll have wonderful memories — of the dress, but not necessarily the wedding itself. Have you ever been to one of those weddings? I have! Wedding dresses are a very important part of a wedding.…
The infamous “they” say there is a sucker born every minute. What they don’t say is that every 30 seconds a scammer is born. As a writer, the majority of scams I face are writing and poetry scams that come in the form of publishing contests.…
The Grammys opened with the much anticipated reunion of The Police. It totally rocked! They started with Roxanne, which Sting does not really perform anymore because he can no longer hit the high notes like they should be hit. For the Grammys, he changed the melody of the song a …
The biggest winners of the night were The Dixie Chicks, taking home 5 Grammys, and Mary J. Blige with 3 wins. It was also a big night for Lifetime Achievement recognitions. Those honored were: Booker T & the MGs (the first bi-racial house band), The Doors, The Grateful Dead, Maria …
As with other award shows, there are always some questionable fashion choices. Here are some of the outfits that made me wonder more than the others. Fun facts about the Grammys: Originally known as the Gramophone Awards, the name soon became Grammys; the Grammy itself is a golden gramophone.…
Anna Nicole Smith died yesterday at the young age of 39. I dedicate this post to her. Before her death in 1996, American humorist Erma Bombeck made a list entitled If I Had My Life To Live Over. My mother mailed me a copy a few years ago and I …
Anna Nicole Smith is dead! Holy crap! Can it really be? The world will never be the same. Perhaps I’ve watched too many Soap Operas over the years, or maybe I’m just oddly overly creative, but I’m guessing there’s more to this than we think.…
So I’m watching American Idol — the best of the worst episode — and just saw an ad for the new Shrek movie, Shrek The Third. It looks pretty funny. Donkey and his dragon wife have flying donkey babies. And Puss is along for the ride too.…
I’m so glad I found this! It was one of the better commercials during the Super Bowl last Sunday. The story goes that Oprah Winfrey and David Letterman have been in somewhat of a feud for years. I’m not really how it’s said to have started.…
I realize it’s two days after the Super Bowl, but I was really busy yesterday. Please don’t hold it against me. I don’t know about you, but I thought the commercials were pretty darn boring this year. Aside from the Kevin Federline one, of course.…
The game isn’t over. As of now, it’s 29 – 17, Colts leading, with just over 5 minutes remaining in the 4th quarter. The commercials this year didn’t impress me much. I’ll write about those later. Here are some pictures of Prince during the Pepsi halftime show.…
We’re in for an early spring. No offense to Phil, but I think Global Warming has more to do with an early spring than a groundhog not seeing his shadow. Although I could be wrong since, according to the President, Global Warming doesn’t exist.…
Antonio Vasconcelos weighs 14.5 pounds and drinks 5 ounces of milk every three hours. But here’s the catch…Antonio is a newborn – a newborn human. Born this past Monday in Cancun, Mexico to parents Teresa Alejandra Cruz, 23, and Luis Vasconcelos, 38, “Super Tonio” was born by Cesarean section (thank …
Usually when Michael Jackson’s three children go out in public, their faces are covered. But not in Las Vegas yesterday! First up: Prince Michael (the first) and Paris; their mother is Michael Jackson’s ex-wife Debbie Rowe. Man, I wonder what’s going through her mind these days.…
Super Bowl XLI is this coming Sunday, February 4th, 2007. I don’t care about the game. I don’t know anything about the teams that are in it (the Colts and the Bears). But I enjoy the commercials, and am really looking forward to them this year.…
