Weekly Celebrity Gossip Round Up (Open Trackback)

There’s just SO MUCH celeb gossip going around, it’s impossible to keep up with it on. I just don’t know how some folks do it - - although, I know some of them do this celebrity gossip blogging thing full time. So, I thought - once a week, I’d do a round up to kind of bring myself up to speed on all the goings on in celebrity gossip blogging that’s going on out there and share some link love with some of the favs I have in celeb gossiping.

On to the round up for this week - here’s Thirteen Celebrity Gossip Bits (as a part of my (celebrity)Thursday Thirteen fun!):

  • Anna Nicole talks about her mother and gives some good reasons why Anna wouldn’t want her mother having anything to do with her baby, Dannielynn, or involved with any decisions about where Anna should be buried. Via Gone Hollywood - OTB
  • Is Jennifer Aniston dating a new guy named Mike? I’m Not Obsessed has some of the details
  • With everybody and their brother (well, in this case, sister) giving their two cents on the abrupt and mysterious passing of Anna Nicole Smith, the circumstances surrounding her death seem to be getting more complicated. Bonnie Stern, the sister of Anna’s partner, Howard K., claims that she spoke with her brother on the day of Anna’s death and that he was not with Smith when she died - more at A Socialite’s Life
  • Sometimes it’s not easy being one of the most famous couples on the planet. Brad Pitt and Angelina Jolie have bailed on Los Angeles and returned to their recently purchased home in the Big Easy and according to a report Brad and Angelina are getting into the spirit of their new hometown, New Orleans. There is one problem, though. As they try to fit in and relax with the every day people the crowds can turn into a mob. - see related photos at Gossip or Truth
  • Howard Stern is soon to be a married man. The Shock Jock announced that he and his longtime girlfriend Beth Ostrosky were set to wed…read more about it at Celebalite
  • JustJared.com has some of the first peeks at Jayden James (Spears)Federline
  • Uptown Girls give some great photo examples of how Madonna has re-invented herself, yet again!
  • TMZ.Com has come crazy shiz on the whole Anna Nicole Smith debacle! They are getting all the exclusive, insider stuff - - if you can’t get enough of this story - check out their collection of… news.
  • You don’t have to look far to see Beyonce’s cover on the Sports Illustrated Swimsuit Edition - - but THIS is just WRONG!
  • Donald Trump must be getting extremely desperate for media attention … he has lowered himself to dipping into Kevin Federline’s bag of tricks and is now using the WWE to drum up publicity presumably for his failing TV show(s) … and it’s sooooooooooo sad - via Pink is the new blog
  • Daniel Radcliffe’s new play Equis premieres tonight in which he allegedly gets completely naked on stage for 10 minutes - via The Superficial
  • Hollywood’s most hated blogger, Perez Hilton, makes the topic du jour on “The View”
  • Lastly, but not leastly - I started a brand new section here called Celebrity Videos - I have been (and will continue) to post some funny and interesting celeb videos.

Thursday Thirteen #9 - Diva Style

Thursday ThirteenThought we would join in the fun this week - with a Diva Twist. Instead of 13 things directly about Me - I have thirteen celebrity facts I’ve run across this week and found to be interesting:

  1. Former N’Sync singer, Lance Bass, has come out of the closet and a public confession of his gayness. Well, duh. Like we didn’t see that coming from a mile away.. like 5 years ago. Now, what I want to see is some People Magazine covers of celebrities who are straight with cover headlines that say “I’m NOT Gay” or “Hey, I like having sex with people of the opposite sex!” or soemthing.. just to even out the waters here.
  2. Britney Spears is having a difficult second pregnancy
  3. Heath Ledger to start as the joker in the new Batman franchise. I can totally envision this!
  4. The Anti-Napster, RIAA honeys, Metallica, has sold out to iTunes
  5. Is Nicole Kidman pregnant? Or is it just another Hollywood pregnancy rumor?
  6. Tori Spelling is being cut out. “Despite reports that Tori Spelling would inherit millions from her father’s $500 million estate, Us has learned exclusively that the actress, 33, will get just 0.16 % of the Spelling fortune. Tori’s share - a cash inheritance payment of $200,000, combined with approximately $600,000 in private investments her dad set up for her - is a brush-off Aaron Spelling would never have intended for his only daughter, says a family source. “I believe Candy had a lot to do with what was left for Tori,” the source says of Tori’s mother, who is sole managing executor of the estate. (Candy’s rep had no comment.)
  7. Justin Timberlake has a new sexy vidoe out called SexyBack Click here to watch
  8. More pregnancy rumors: it’s rumored that Ashanti is pregnant with Nelly’s baby.
  9. Kevin Federline’s official site is coming soon Though you’d all want to know.
  10. The Marshall family vows to keep fighting Anna Nicole for her dead husband’s money.
  11. Let the biological overshadowing of Maddox and Zahara begin. Madame Tussauds New York has created a wax figure of only Shiloh Nouvel Jolie-Pitt to be added to the Brangelina display.
  12. Pamela Anderson re-married rocker Kid Rock in St-Tropez.
  13. Happy Birthday to: TV producer Norman Lear is 84, Actor Jerry Van Dyke (Coach ) is 75, Actress Roxanne Hart (Chicago Hope ) is 54, Singer Juliana Hatfield is 39, Actor Julian McMahon (Nip/Tuck ) is 38, Singer Pete Yorn is 32

Brad Pitt’s No brainer

It’s a rare (maybe this is a first?) thing that Diva Dish touches on politics here. Seriously, celebrities are well known for spouting off their 1, 2, 3, 4… cents on topics ranging from the environment, war, foreign policy, guns - you name it, Hollywood has a platform for everything - most of it nonsense and of no greater value than the political commentary of your next door neighbor (unless your neighbor happens to be a Bush or a Kennedy, then well.. ya know).

But, this quote from Brad Pitt regarding Angelina’s new movie project really just shows how sheltered and isolated some of Hollywood really is in their ‘make love, not war’ completely politically correct way of irritatingly tolerating absolutely every thing.

Here’s the quote:

We hope the film can increase understanding between people of all faiths and portray the story and the people involved as honestly as possible without anger or judgment.”

- [source]

The movie? A Mighty Heart by Marianne Pearl, the widow of slain Wall Street Journal reporter Daniel Pearl.

Now, forget the fact that a movie has already been made about Daniel Pearl. Oh yes, it has! It was distributed across the internet just as fast as the little data lines could carry it. The movie was made by the terrorists.

To summarize: Daniel Pearl was a reporter who was lured into an interview, kidnapped by Islamic fundamentalists (read: terrorists) and brutally killed by beheading in front of rolling video cameras. Before chopping off his head - the terrorists asked Pearl to identify himself. Not by name. Not by country. Not by occupation. But by religion. Identify himself as a Jew - once he did, off went his head! He was killed because he was a Jew.

This is the concept that Brad Pitt wants us to be so understanding about - without anger and without judgement.

Can we all just get along? Kumbaya, Puff the Magic Dragon and flower power, man. All those terrorists need is a little love and understanding.

But hey, at the end of the day? Brad Pitt is still cute as hell, right?

Thursday Thirteen #8 - Diva Style

Thursday ThirteenThought we would join in the fun this week - with a Diva Twist. Instead of 13 things directly about Me - I have thirteen celebrity facts I’ve run across this week and found to be interesting:

  1. Paris Hilton parks in spaces reserved for the handicapped. Either there is something we don’t know about Miss Hilton and her handicap, or she’s an ass. I put my vote in for ‘ass’.
  2. Angelina Jolie and Brad Pitt are denying wedding rumors. They’re planning on leaving Nambia in a few days… hmm, so Brad can start filming Oceans 13?
  3. American Idol loser (why do we say runner-up? She’s not the winner.. therefore..?), Katharine McPhee, has signed a record deal with music mogul Clive Davis in conjunction with 19 Recordings Unlimited. (the label is managed by Simon).
  4. How many of you could win the trivia question “Who was the Fifth Beatle?” Anyone? Well his name was Billy Preston and he died today at the age of 59. RIP. (of course, the fifth Beatle” has been used, accurately, to describe their bassist, Stuart Sutcliffe, who left the band in 1962, and died of a brain hemorrhage shortly thereafter. Similarly, their drummer Pete Best (replaced by Ringo Starr when the band got a record contract) is often cited as the “fifth Beatle.” - - so it’s all very confusing)
  5. Questions arise about the new The Omen remake of why they are messing with the original? Good damned question!
  6. Lawsuits are boiling over in regards to Shiloh Nouvel Joilie-Pitt’s (aka Brangelina spawn) mug shots (aka baby pictures) being published on several websites - - apparently Hello! Magazine (UK) and People Magazine (US) obtained exclusive rights to the pictures and are suing any website who publishes the pictures (aka scoops the aforementioned magazines).
  7. Katie Holmes is set to cash in on her wedding to Tom Cruise. “Tom Cruise and Katie Holmes fans may be hearing wedding bells — or maybe the sound of a cash register. The couple reportedly have hammered out a prenuptial agreement that will give Holmes as much as $33 million and that will pave the way for the two to get hitched.

    The happy couple and their lawyers have come up with a contract that will give Holmes $3 million a year up to $33 million for each year that she is married to Cruise, as well as a palatial home in Montecito, California, according to Life & Style Weekly. If the marriage lasts longer than eleven years, the contract becomes void and California’s community property law kicks in — giving Holmes half of Cruise’s rather sizeable fortune.

    She’s getting rich hitched! (ummm… has anyone actually SEEN the baby yet??)

  8. Much speculation about Britney Spear’s new man… er.. Manny, as they call him. He’s a nanny. He’s a body guard. He’s cute. He’s built. And.. he already has a girlfriend.. So, he’s not KFed’s replacement - - but we’re still hopefull that Britney will dump KFed and move on with her life - - because any life without KFed is a better life, indeed.
  9. Nicole Kidman and Keith Urban are hoping for a press-free wedding. Yea. Right.
  10. Almost a year ago, Olivia Newton-John’s boyfriend Patrick Kim McDermott vanished while on an overnight fishing trip, leaving Newton-John, his family and authorities in the dark as to what happened to him, but fearful that he may have fallen overboard to his death. Shortly after, investigations revealed he was having strained relations with his ex wife over outstanding child support payments. Speculation about his own faked death ensued. Drama. Drama. Drama. Now - four separate witnesses claim to have seen him in Mexico since his dissapearance last year. Is Patrick McDermott the new Elvis?
  11. Seems American Idol’s Chris Daugherty will not be filling Fuel’s shortage - he’s declined the offer to be the frontman for popular band, Fuel. He must have other plans, eh?
  12. Lindsay Lohan has turned into a proper Hollywood Diva now that she quit her new movie called Bill. Reason: The director of the movie is not well enough known.. First time directors are not good enough for the 19 year old upstart. Bitch.
  13. Happy Birthday to: Comedian Jerry Stiller is 79, Comedian-talk show host Joan Rivers is 73, Singer Nancy Sinatra is 66, Singer Boz Scaggs is 62, Singer Bonnie Tyler is 53, Actor-director Keenan Ivory Wayans is 48, Keyboardist Nick Rhodes of Duran Duran is 44, Rapper Kanye West is 28.

Want Absolute Power? Screw Hollywood - Go To Africa

BrangelinaHow to get the government of an impoverished nation to bow to your every request? Become famous.. like really REALLY famous… then get pregnant.

Ok got that?

Alright.. next step. Enter said impoverished nation, announcing to the world that THIS is where you intend on birthing your baby - and THEN spend lots of money with the inferred promise of increased tourism and appeal because your HUGE star celebrity status will turn the worlds impression of the impoverished country on its collective heel.

Once you’ve done that - you can DICTATE! W00T!

You can secure the borders. You can secure the airspace. You can ban foreign reporters from even ENTERING the country! The leader of said impoverished country will BOW to your every whim because of the promise and potential that your, apparently incredibly powerful, star studded celebrity status and fame will bring into the country.

Make sure you make up for all that incredible self-importance by selling the first pictures of your newborn for $5.4Mil and donating the proceeds to charity.

Namibia: Government for hire.

Are we having fun yet?

Namibia ‘bowed to pressure’ from Pitt and Jolie over birth

The Republic of Namibia - the impoverished country of 1.8 million known for its wild remoteness - not only welcomed the movie stars, it handed over control of its international land borders and airspace to them.

As the world awaited the birth of the child at a luxury villa complex on the coast, Namibian authorities said they had bowed to pressure from Jolie and Pitt and granted them the right to ban foreign journalists from entering the country - a remarkable move for the Government of any sovereign state.

The stars told ministers they would quit the country unless allegedly intrusive journalists and paparazzi were brought to heel.

…..

But the exceptionally high-profile presence of Pitt and Jolie promises to be a massive boost to tourist income in the desperately poor country, where the average wage is $46 a week.

Three weeks ago, one South African and three French photographers were expelled from Namibia, a move attacked by human rights groups as a clear breach of the country’s civil liberties legislation.

Nonsense, said the Government. “This lady is expecting,” Prime Minister Nahas Angula said at the time. “You guys are harassing her. Why don’t you allow her some privacy? Harassment is not allowed in Namibia.”

Emphasis mine.

Angelina FINALLY Popped!

BrangelinaThe much anticipated birth of the year! Angelina Jolie and Brad Pitt had a baby girl!! She FINALLY popped! We didn’t really think she was ever going to!

All together now… awwwwwww!

The young girls name is: Shiloh Nouvel Jolie-Pitt

Shiloh – which in one longstanding translation from the Bible has come to mean “the peaceful one” – was born in The Cottage Hospital in Swakopmund.

Jolie is expected to remain in the hospital for a couple days before returning to the couple’s sea-side Namibian retreat.

Brad Pitt - Is this safe fathering?

Brad Pitt ZaharaFollowing the latest and greatest trend of attacking celebrities on their parenting skills, US Magazine publishes this picture of Brad Pitt and his adpoted daughter, Zahara - then asks the question: “Should Zahara Be Wearing a Helmet?”

First Britney and now Brad. Who is next, really?

US Magazine seeks the opinion of Debra Smiley, author of Safe Baby who states: ““She needs a helmet and closed-toe shoes. And I highly recommened toddlers ride in a child trailer pulled by a bike. It’s more stable and secure.”

Everyone is a critic these days, see.

I just have to say that I’m really glad I didn’t have a gaggle of photographers following me around the day that I fell down a flight of stairs with my (then) 6 month old daughter in my arms. (she was ok - I, however, broke my tailbone in the process because I couldn’t put my arms out to save myself, otherwise I would’ve dropped her!)

Nor, thankfully, were the papparazi around the day my (then) 2 year old son decided to unbuckle himself from his safety seat and climbed over the seat to sit in my lap as I was driving 65 MPH down the highway! Yikes!

Though, I do have to say - the image of little Zahara without a helmet or shoes on does make me cringe with the all the ‘What Ifs’ that go through my head.

Is Brad Pitt a BAD parent?? Give your answer in our poll in the Celebrity Gossip Forum
