“The Monkees” Davy Jones Dead At 66
Feb 29th
Sad news kids. Cute little Davy Jones has died. I grew up listening to my moms Monkees albums and watching reruns of the band acting a fool every afternoon. Not only was Davy the cute little one..it was the first time my young girl mind registered that accents were sexy! Years later I saw him on a rerun of The Brady Bunch and got all crushy on him all over again. I mean, if Marsha loved Davy…then it was certainly ok for me to love Davy!
Sad. Oh, in other useless Monkee trivia..did you know that Mike Nesmith’s mom invented white out?
Davy Jones, the lead singer of the pop group The Monkees, died Wednesday at the age of 66, his publicist confirmed to Fox News.
“The only thing we can do is confirm that he has died of a heart attack at Indiantown, Florida this morning,” his rep Helen Kensick told Fox News. “We will have more later.
The local medical examiner released a statement Wednesday confirming that they had been notified of the singer’s death.
Davy on The Brady Bunch…swoon…
Snooki’s Pregnancy Is Ruining The Integrity Of Her New Spin-Off Show
Feb 29th
The powers that be at Snooki Inc. are keeping her pregnancy super quiet. At least so says The New York Post. News around the water cooler today is that MTV went into crisis mode when they found Snook knocked up. They put the lock down on the news because they thought it would “greatly affect the creative direction of the show. ”
Yes, that’s right. MTV thought an unplanned, unmarried pregnancy would make Snooki and JWoww’s new spin off seem cheap some how.
The universe’s collective IQ should prepare to drop a few points.
Though she has publicly denied she’s expecting, sources say trashy “Jersey Shore” guidette Nicole “Snooki” Polizzi is indeed pregnant and has plans to bankroll her mommy-to-be status into becoming “the next Kourtney Kardashian.”
We’re told Polizzi, 24, is carrying her first child by boyfriend Jionni LaValle, and is roughly three months along.
Sources said the reality star, who denied being preggers earlier this month, has already brokered a deal to announce the news on the cover of Us Weekly after she shopped the story to several celebrity magazines.
Sean Young Demands Apology For Arrest At Oscar After Party
Feb 28th
Just when you thought all things Oscars was done for this year, Sean Young is telling her side of the story that left her arrested for battery outside The Governors Ball Sunday night.
Sean allegedly refused to leave the premises after she was told she was not on the “list” and asked to leave. She then slapped a security guard who touched her shoulder.
She told People that she was “just standing by the line” outside the Academy Awards-sponsored event and not “bothering anybody” when the the trouble started.
“I started to leave and [the guard] grabbed my arm and he started pulling me,” said the actress, who claims she was on hand just to snap photos with celebrities for her Facebook page. “And I turned around and I was pulling my arm away – and I struck him.”
Referring to the Academy she said: “They need to make a public apology on behalf of their security guard,” although the Academy says in a release that it played no part in the situation, stating:
“There was an incident with Ms. Young outside the Academy’s Governors Ball. It was not the Academy who pressed charges.”
I think it’s less interesting that she was arrested and more sad that she was just “hanging around” the line in a ball gown hoping to get in.
Even more sad are the desperate celebrity “candids” that Sean was on a mission to get that night…here are a few…
With sweet Sandra Bullock who probably feels sorry for her and couldn’t say no…
With Michelle Willams and Jonah Hill who probably did say no but his agent made him do it….
With Glenn Close who is clearly only being polite….
And the money shot!!!! With Brad Pitt and Angelina Jolie who again…probably felt sorry for the less fortunate fellow actress who has caught some really bad breaks in the business.
Pictures: Angelina Jolie Very Thin At 2012 Oscars
Feb 27th
Of course there has been tons of buzz around Angelina Jolie and Brad Pitt at the Oscars last night. Opinions of how Angie look last night are polarizing. Some think she look emaciated, frozen and evil-queenish…some think she looked happy, peaceful and gorgeous in her black velvet Versace.
Whichever camp you are on you have to admit she was WORKING it last night. The dress…the slit..the leg..the red carpet..that smile…proudly parading in Brad’s parents. She was on a mission to be prove something last night..just not sure what.
MADONNA’S MUSLIM BOYFRIEND IS GETTING INTO KABBALAH
Feb 27th
Madonna’s powers of persuasion are considerable, but she topped herself with this one. Madonna, 53, managed to talk her Muslim boyfriend Brahim Zaibat, 24, into going to Kabbalah services with her. They were seen together at The Kabbalah Center Friday in Los Angeles. No red string on his wrist yet, but we shall see…
Chris Brown Steals A Fan Cell Phone
Feb 24th
Continuing on his quest to be the biggest A-hole in history Chris Brown stole a fan’s cell phone and screamed at her.
Chris Brown faces new potential troubles with the law after allegedly snatching a woman’s iPhone as she tried to snap his picture outside a Miami Beach nightclub.
“B—-, you ain’t going to put that on no website,” the singer, 22, angrily told the fan as he reached through his Bentley window around 4 a.m. Sunday and took the phone from her hands, according to a police report.
His genius plan backfired because this story has blown up this morning. The best part is that if the investigators prove this charge to be true he could face 4 years in prison for violating his probation from beating up his BFF Rihanna.
Gerard Bulter In Rehab For Pills and Booze
Feb 24th
Gerard Butler has checked himself into rehab. TMZ reports that Gerry headed over to The Betty Ford Clinic to “head-off” a full blown addiction to pain pills. That might be the funniest line ever written by a PR person EVER. Trust that he is not at The Betty unless he is already in full-blown addiction. And I love how they are playing down the cocaine part and focusing mainly on how the grueling demands of work brought him in the real of pain pills.
Unlike most gossip bloggers..I love Gerard Butler. He is an old school man’s man. He drinks dark liquor straight up, chases skirts and will never settle down. He is a harder around the edges George Clooney. But to say that he is the kinda man that would go to rehab to head-off something is hilarious. He goes balls the walls with everything and that includes his drugs.
Butler’s problems were triggered by the physical demands of shooting “300″ in 2006. We’re told the actor began struggling with pain management, and the problem became exacerbated while filming “Of Men and Mavericks,” when Butler was badly hurt on December 18 during a surfing accident.
We’re told Butler realized he was relying too much on prescription drugs and decided to head off a full-blown addiction by entering Betty Ford three weeks ago. Sources tell TMZ … Butler also developed issues with cocaine, but the root problem appears to be the injuries and pain management.

J.K. Rowling Releasing New Adult Fiction Novel
Feb 24th
And the readers of the world rejoiced.
J.K. Rowling announced today that she will be releasing a new book, her first since the final Harry Potter book in 2007. From the sounds of the press release she is possibly planning an entire new series of stories. Yeah! There is some concern that she might not be able to make the switch from Young Adult to Adult but I think that’s ridiculous. If she can managed to write seven books that hold the attention of some of the most literary minds alive I think she can write a few successful adult novel.
The author of mega-selling Harry Potter series has an agreement with Little, Brown in the United States and Britain to publish her first novels for grownups. The title, release date and details about the novel, long rumored, were not announced Thursday.
“Although I’ve enjoyed writing it every bit as much, my next book will be very different to the Harry Potter series, which has been published so brilliantly by Bloomsbury and my other publishers around the world,” Rowling said in a statement released by Little, Brown. “The freedom to explore new territory is a gift that Harry’s success has brought me, and with that new territory it seemed a logical progression to have a new publisher. I am delighted to have a second publishing home in Little, Brown, and a publishing team that will be a great partner in this new phase of my writing life.”
CAN YOU IMAGINE LINDSAY LOHAN PLAYING ELIZABETH TAYLOR?
Feb 24th
We were taken aback when we stumbled upon this photo of Lindsay Lohan at an Oscars art event yesterday in Beverly Hills. It was just announced that she will star as Elizabeth Taylor in “Liz and Dick” for the Lifetime channel. Good for her, but could she look any LESS like Liz Taylor? The lips and platinum hair remind us more of Victoria Gotti than Liz…
