Osama Bin Laden Has Been KILLED By US Military Forces [UPDATE] Posted: 01 May 2011 09:49 PM PDT Osama bin Laden, the monster responsible for the 9/11 attacks on the World Trade Center in NYC, NY and the Pentagon in Washington DC, is DEAD! President Barack Obama announced just hours ago that a US-led military assault on bin Laden’s private residence resulted in his death. In the attack, bin Laden’s oldest son was also killed, bringing to an end an almost decade-long search for the mastermind of the 9/11 attacks. Read on for the reported details of this hugely important accomplishment by US military forces.
Impromptu celebrations have broken out in front of the White House, and most especially at the site of the fallen World Trade Center buildings. As morbid as some may think this may be, bin Laden’s death is sure to bring relief and a sense of closure to the people who suffered as a result of bin Laden’s pure and total evil. This monster has been KILLED! IMHO, one death is not enough to pay for all the lives he is responsible for but I am quite satisfied, personally, knowing that bin Laden is dead and gone! We are just months away from the 10th anniversary of September 11, 2001 … it seems pretty certain that altho the memorial will, once again, be a somber one there will also be an outburst of celebration over final justice on bin Laden himself. Osama bin Laden is dead … dead and gone … mission: accomplished at last! UPDATE: Here is video of President Barack Obama‘s formal speech announcing the death of Bin Laden: Here is the full text of President Obama‘s historic speech:

President Obama Skewers Donald Trump At The White House Correspondent’s Dinner Posted: 01 May 2011 02:29 PM PDT In the past few weeks, Donald Trump jumped on board the “birther” movement bandwagon that called into question the citizenship of President Barack Obama in an effort, I believe, to draw attention to himself in the hopes of possibly running for president at some point. Last night, Trump was among the guests at the annual White House Correspondent’s Dinner in Washington DC and got a LOT of attention drawn to him as he became the foolish butt of the BRILLIANT comic stylings of President Obama (and then Trump got skewered again by Seth Meyers). Trust me, you MUST watch the video below of President Obama and Meyers skewering Trump and very effectively turning him into the literal joke that he has become. President Barack Obama got some serious jabs in last night against birther and presidential hopeful Donald Trump at the White House Correspondents Dinner, making light of the birth certificate controversy that the real estate mogul had made the centerpiece of his campaign. Obama was speaking at the annual event in Washington, D.C., that calls for the president to do a bit of comedy. His main target was Trump, who was at the event as a guest of the Washington Post. According to several media reports today, Trump was visibly uncomfortable as the president mocked his birther crusade. Obama chided Trump and his work on his NBC reality television show “The Apprentice,” focusing on his decision last month to fire Gary Busey instead of rock singer Meat Loaf. “These are the types of decisions that would keep me up at night,” Obama joked. “Well handled, sir.” Obama said he would begin his remarks with a supposed video of his own birth — a reference to the media attention surrounding questions of his birthplace — and then showed a clip from Disney’s “The Lion King.” Comedian Seth Meyers, the night’s main comedic voice, was a bit more relentless with his mocking of Trump. “Donald Trump often talks about running as a Republican, which is surprising,” Meyers said. “I just assumed he was running as a joke.” And also: “Donald Trump owns the Miss USA pageant, which is great for Republicans because it will stream line their search for a vice president.” During Meyers’ bit, Trump can be seen in the video staring icily back. Brilliant. Just … brilliant. I truly hope this will effectively shut Donald Trump up for good … it’s wishful thinking, I’m sure, but just watching him seethe as he impotently sat there as the butt of the joke was just … brilliant. Well done, President Obama. Well done, Seth Meyers. You’re DONE, Donald Trump ;) [Source, Source, Source] |
‘The Amazing Spider-Man’ Moves Filming Production To NYC Posted: 01 May 2011 01:59 PM PDT When last we saw photos from the set of the upcoming reboot film franchise The Amazing Spider-Man, the action was being filmed on the streets of downtown Los Angeles. In an effort to give the film a more realistic look (considering Spider-Man lives in NYC, NY) the filming production of the movie has made its way to Manhattan. Check out below photos of leads Andrew Garfield (as Peter Parker) and Emma Stone (as Gwen Stacy) on the NYC set of The Amazing Spider-Man.

Posted: 01 May 2011 01:28 PM PDT Last night I attended my third Prince concert of his 21 Night Stand in Los Angeles residency at The Forum in Inglewood, CA and — as you might expect — I had the time of my life! People have been asking me which of the 3 shows (thus far) has been the best and honestly, they each were “the best”. Because the shows are different every single time, there is something very special and memorable about each show. Last night, I went to the show with Emma and Josh and we had a BLAST! The show as full of amazing guest stars … making it truly one of the most memorable shows I’ve ever attended.
Gwen Stefani sings vocals on the song So Far, So Pleased from Prince‘s album Rave Un2 the Joy Fantastic and, to my knowledge, she has never performed the song with him on stage before last night. Fortunately, some industrious fan managed to film some video of their performance last night: The best collabo of the night, tho, IMHO was Nikka Costa singing the Led Zepplin song Whole Lotta Love with Prince on guitar … it was just … SICK! The whole show was just a lot of fun. During one of the encores, all the VIP table folks got brought up on stage — including Gwen and hubby Gavin Rossdale, Kirstie Alley (who is an old personal friend of Prince‘s) and her Dancing with the Stars partner Maksim Chmerkovskiy and others. It really felt like one big house party. I am SO happy I got to see these 3 shows … and I am planning on going to the 3 shows next weekend and the 3 shows the following weekend. I’m going to go to as many of these Prince shows as I can. At $25 a show, it’s a crime NOT to attend. I have a lot of resting up to do before next weekend’s shows so … I’m gonna get some sleep :) [Source] |

Shia LaBeouf Gives Us A Peek At His Surprisingly Hot Bod Posted: 01 May 2011 12:22 PM PDT Shia LaBeouf, who will be starring this Summer in Transformers: Dark of the Moon, has been spending a lot of time in the gym lately because outta nowhere homie got himself a serious body. While picking up a drink at a local gas station here in SoCal, Shia wiped his mouth with his t-shirt (cuz clearly the lad doesn’t carry a handkerchief for such occasions) and inadvertently gave us a peek of what’s been hiding under his clothing. I gotta say, Shia‘s grown up to be pretty hot these days.

Jason Momoa Will Play A Gnarly-Looking Conan The Barbarian Posted: 01 May 2011 11:04 AM PDT Previously we’ve seen promo photos of Jason Momoa in costume as Conan the Barbarian but none of them really showed how gnarly the character will look in the film. Even the original Arnold Schwarzenegger Barbarian films featured a Conan that looked, for the most part, “pretty”. But today we get to see a new photo of Momoa as Conan and as you can see … he actually looks like a barbarian … with facial battle scars and all.

Mike Tyson’s Tattoo Artist Sues Producers Of ‘The Hangover Part II’ Posted: 01 May 2011 10:31 AM PDT S. Victor Whitmill, the Missouri-based tattoo artist who inked the infamous tribal tattoo on boxer Mike Tyson‘s face, is suing producers of The Hangover Part II for copyright infringement. As you may know, one of the characters in the sequel film sports an exact replica of Tyson‘s face tattoo in a majority of the film and Whitmill is demanding compensation. At first, I thought his claim was baseless … but it turns out that Whitmill actually copyrighted the tattoo design after he inked it on Tyson‘s face. He might actually have a very strong case … which would mean the Hangover folks may have to pay him a LOT of money in the long run.
HMMM. This could turn out to be very problematic for Warner Bros. In the end, Whitmill will have to prove that he does own the copyright for the tattoo design but if he can do so, WB will be forced to pay. There doesn’t seem to be any way to release the film without using the face tattoo design. To be honest, I had no idea that one could copyright a tattoo design but … I suppose they can. I am actually very curious to see how this lawsuit turns out … who do you think will win? [Source] |
Newlyweds Prince William & Kate Middleton Emerge The Day After Their Royal Wedding Posted: 01 May 2011 09:37 AM PDT The couple may have been married in regal fashion in front of the entire world on Friday, but Saturday — the day after the Royal Wedding of Prince William and Kate Middleton — the couple looked about as normal as they ever have before. Wearing an outfit that any woman can pick up in almost any shopping mall around the world, Kate the Duchess of Cambridge emerged on her first day as a member of the British Royal Family lookin’ very much like the people’s princess.
It’s insane to me that Wills and Kate can go from such insane pageantry one day to complete normalcy the next. Kate is now a member of the British Royal Family and, yet, you’d think it was just any ol’ day for her. It’s clear that Kate is taking cues from the beloved life of William‘s late mother Princess Diana. Whether intentional or not, I think it’s a very fitting tribute to pay to Diana. I think if I managed to suddenly become a member of any royal family, I’d be running around town with a crown on my head, waving around a diamond-studded scepter like a crazy person … at least for a few days. To be honest, I’m not at all surprised that Kate seems to be handling her new station in life with such grace and normalcy. I always felt that Kate was destined to become a member of the royal family. She fits in perfectly. I guess things are really back to normal for these two. [Source] |
Scarlett Johansson & Sean Penn Take Their Love Affair Public Posted: 01 May 2011 08:57 AM PDT Altho the cat has been out of the bag for a few weeks now, it would seem that new lovebirds Scarlett Johansson and Sean Penn are finally ready to go public with their love. You may recall that we learned back in March that the couple started “hanging out” together for cozy lunch dates … then came the late night dinner dates, then came the couple’s appearance together at the wedding of Reese Witherspoon and Jim Toth in late March. Thru it all, the couple have were never photographed together … until now. Scarlett and Sean attended the White House Correspondent’s Dinner in Washington DC last night and were spotted in each other’s close company afterward. Hand in hand, Scarlett and Sean left the soirée looking very much “together”.
Oh yeah, they are SO together. The initial denial came in February, a month before the couple were first spotted together in public … so technically, I guess it could’ve been true that they were not “together” back then. It’s been a few months since then, and we’ve got hand-holding. My guess is that the couple are trying to keep things as quite as possible because Scarlett *just* filed for divorce from soon-to-be ex-hubby Ryan Reynolds in December … but, it’s not secret that Sean Penn is a fiercely private man. I don’t expect that we’ll hear any official confirmation that the couple are together together but … these photos are pretty much all I need. Could they be in it for the long haul? I guess we’ll have to wait and see. Something they make an odd couple but I can see how this relationship might work. Who knows, stranger things have happened. So what do y’all think? Do you think these two are really together together after seeing these photos? [Photo credit: Splash News; Source] |
