Vanessa Paradis blames Angelina Jolie for her split with Johnny Depp Posted: 03 Feb 2012 08:33 AM PST Of course. This story is a giant “of course.” The only shocking thing is how long it took for the tabloids to work this angle. So, you know how Johnny Depp and Vanessa Paradis are pretty much over? Although Vanessa claims they're not, People Mag disagrees and I'm siding with People. Anyway, back in 2010, Johnny Depp went to work in Venice with an actress named Angelina Jolie. Heard of her? Allegedly, Vanessa wasn't happy that her beloved was working with the famed "homewrecker" and VP attempted to "order" Johnny to quit The Tourist. He didn't quit it, so obviously, he and Angelina slept together. Ever since The Tourist's production in the spring of 2010, there were rumors that Vanessa hated Angelina and that this hatred may have even lead to some high-profile shunning at certain events (the 2011 Golden Globes, the Cannes Film Festival). So, with that back story, why did it take the tabloids so long to come up with a “Johnny Depp and Vanessa have split up because of Angelina Jolie, of course” story?
[From The Enquirer, print edition] Do I think Johnny and Angelina boned? Not really. I don't even buy that they were attracted to each other. For those of us who saw The Tourist, their chemistry was sweet and a bit cute, but not hot and heavy. As for how they seemed on the red carpet – well, they avoided each other and when they were forced to stand next to each other, they kind of looked like they hated each other. What's weird is that I think the tabloids were really on to something with the Johnny Depp-Eva Green stories. I still think that one might be on. Star Magazine has a story about Eva and Johnny this week too – “Their romance is getting really steamy” according to Star's source. They just make sense together. Depp and Jolie? Not so much. |
Blue Ivy Carter has six nannies, diamond earrings & a sapphire-encrusted bottle Posted: 03 Feb 2012 08:32 AM PST Beyonce and Jay-Z have gone quiet for the most part since the birth of little Blue Ivy. I mean, they released a statement and Jay released a song, and he also partied all night at a club opening, but other than that… relatively quiet. What does this selective silence mean? Does it mean that they are quietly enjoying the first months of little Blue's life? Or does it mean that something big is coming – like some kind of craziness for the Grammys? I don't know. But I do tend to believe this In Touch Weekly report, just because I don't have a reason to disbelieve it:
[From In Touch Weekly, print edition] "Her diaper is changed every hour" – not "Beyonce changes her diaper." But isn't that weird – is that a thing? Changing a baby's diaper hourly instead of just waiting for a more occasion-appropriate time to change the kid's diaper? As for the all of blinged-out baby stuff – babies just shove everything into their mouths, right? And that's why you don't give them jewelry and stuff? Those six nannies better keep an eye on things, but Blue's parents are idiots. By the way, these are all photos from Beyonce's (phantom, pillowy) pregnancy – various pics from July to September of last year, which was Bey's second trimester. The one where Bey is in black – that's from Glastonbury, where Gwyneth Paltrow claims Bey was "barfing" in between songs because of morning sickness. Hm… |
Madonna’s new music video for “Give Me All Your Luv”: terrible & embarrassing? Posted: 03 Feb 2012 08:29 AM PST Is a new Madonna video enough of an event that I should blog my reaction to each and every second of this catastrophe/masterpiece? I would do that for Lady Gaga – does Madge deserve the same treatment? I think yes. Especially when it's her first single in a long time, and especially since Madonna's new video for "Give Me All Your Luv" is so… interesting. Please note: It didn't even register to me at first that "Give Me All Your Luv" was the name of Madge's NEW single. I really just glossed over that at first, thinking Madonna had already done a song called "Give Me All Your Luv." Doesn't it feel like she's already had a similar-sounding song title? Right? Anyway, here's the video. My thoughts are below: 0:13 – Wait, M.I.A. is in here? Is anyone else startled by a collaboration between two pop stars who know so little about international politics yet both front like they're experts? 0:24 – Madge looks like she was about to fall down and break her hip as she came out of the doorway. Excellent trench coat too. 0:31 – MADONNA BUTT CHEEK. REPEAT: MADONNA BUTT CHEEK. 0:37 – Just noticed Madge's glove-lets. She really hates her hands these days. 0:50 – In the part where Madge is wearing the black two-piece leotard, her hair looks great. 1:02 – I don't get the "high school football game" imagery. Why cheerleaders? Why football players? Why is Madonna so desperate to surround herself with jailbait-y images? 1:20 – God, this song SUCKS. 1:24 – Madonna dances like she's afraid she's going to pop a hip too. 1:50 – Grandma hip thrust! Gross. Why all the closeup cutaways to her crotch? 2:02 – We get it, Madge. You like to be carried around by nubile young beefcake. 2:10 – OH DEAR GOD. Madonna tries the Marilyn Monroe crap again, only this time she's looking especially drag queen-y. 2:20 – M.I.A. and Nicki Minaj are doing Marilyn too. I'm so embarrassed for both of them. 3:24 – WATCH YOUR HIP!! 3:34 – Butt cheek. 3:36 – Baby toss? Terrible. Basically, this is just awful. |
Willow Smith, 11, shaved her head and put photos online: did she get permission? Posted: 03 Feb 2012 07:59 AM PST My son is in first grade and his best friend is trying to get him to join Facebook so they can play games together. I said “no” and I plan to continue to keep saying that until he’s in junior high at least, at which point there will probably be a ton more social networking apps and sites to freak me out. This is what comes to mind for me when I saw this self portrait of Willow Smith that she posted to “Who Say” after she shaved her head. Does someone oversee her online activities, and did they ok her posting this? She seems to be taking pictures of herself and putting them up without asking an adult, but I don’t know that for sure. I think kids should be able to pick out their clothes and hairstyles, within reason, although we’ve heard that Willow has a stylist. When I was in seventh grade, only slightly older than Willow, I shaved half my head and to my parents’ credit they didn’t freak out and just went with it. I don’t think kids should be able to independently use social networking apps without supervision, though. This is very young to be posting photos online, but I keep telling my kid that the Internet was only just coming out when I was in college. It’s a different world out there, plus Willow’s very privileged jet-setting world is much different than other little kids. She’s a pop star! Here’s more on her new look. She can’t “whip her hair” anymore.
[From Daily Mail] As a side note, please don’t make any mean comments about Willow’s appearance. She may look a lot like her dad that’s true, but try to remember that she’s 11.
[From Star Magazine, print edition, February 13, 2012] Will is in Philadelphia to shoot a movie, After Earth directed by M. Night Shamalan, and Star reminds us that Willow is going on tour in May. So it sounds Will and Jada are necessarily apart for work and are each trying to single parent one of their kids. Still, maybe Willow is acting out by shaving her head. It seems pretty normal to me. Going on tour at 11 isn’t normal though. I wish Will and Jada would try and shield their kids from fame instead of putting them in the family business. Here’s Willow at a BET event on 1-14-12. She looks so pretty in that yellow dress. She’s also shown on 12-13-11. Credit: WENN.com |
Rihanna bleaches her hair, adds a blonde weave: busted or cute? Posted: 03 Feb 2012 07:56 AM PST It's been a while since Rihanna has been blonde, right? I can't keep up with this stuff. I think she was last blonde when she wore an unfortunate wiglet for her Armani campaign. Well, she's done it again, only this time she's doing some kind of 1980s hair-band style. Rihanna began tweeting behind-the-scenes photos of her Elle Magazine shoot (she's getting an Elle cover? Meh.) in which they bleached her hair and gave her extensions. After the Elle shoot, Rihanna went to the Roxbury – I'm including a few photos from her outing, in which she wore that fug orange sweater and thigh-high leather boots. Rihanna claimed her new look is "stripperish" but I just think it's flat-out ugly. I never understand why Rihanna does this to herself, or why she allows this to be done to her. I mean, I guess I understand the idea of "She's 23, she's experimenting with her look, she's having fun." But most of this stuff simply doesn't look GOOD. I hated the pink-Kool-Aid phase, and this blonde-rocker look might be even worse. Dear Rihanna: You're very pretty but please STOP. |
Star: Seal pushed Heidi Klum, had to be “physically restrained” by security Posted: 03 Feb 2012 07:33 AM PST Yesterday, we covered a story about Seal’s ex-girlfriend, Tatjana Patitz, who claims that he indeed has a violent temper, and she’s glad that Heidi Klum has separated from Seal for the sake of the children. Who really knows about the true nature of Tatjana’s motives for speaking out on the matter, but her words do lend credence to previous reports that Heidi and Seal’s split had a lot to do with Seal’s alleged emotional volatility. As stated previously, I believe that Seal does have an anger management problem that he keeps under wraps in favor of the very passive, eloquent demeanor he recently displayed during the “Ellen” appearance. This belief is based upon my own observations of abusive relationships and not upon any sort of generalization. Now the tabloids are now painting an even more frightening picture of Seal’s behavior towards Heidi and women in general. Yesterday, I was hoping that Seal’s alleged temper merely meant that he was a screamer or puncher of walls if anything, but Star puts forth an account of Seal’s anger escalating during a mid-January fight, wherein he pushed Heidi with such force that her security guard had to break things up and “physically restrain Seal.” Scary, right? Star also talked to an insider on Seal’s recent tour who says that he generally treats women with disrespect. This is getting pretty ugly:
[From Star, print edition, February 13, 2012] There’s also a story in this week’s issue of In Touch that fills in more about the Tatjana tale that we covered yesterday but also quotes an insider that believes Seal is “acting like he’s still in love with Heidi” as “an important marketing tool,” which is probably true to an extent. Still, I think that Seal is being outwardly charming to try and woo Heidi back, and he’s probably not nearly as passively loving behind closed doors. In Touch also includes another statement from Tatjana that Seal was very kind in the early months of their dating relationship because, “In the courtship, it’s different.” Well, it’s always different at the beginning of every relationship, right? But if you’re dating a person with anger problems, such changes can be much more jarring than simple matters like, say, simply being less thoughtful as a relationship wears on. Like I’ve already said, hopefully this is all a bunch of crap. But if it isn’t, Heidi did the smart, strong thing of getting out of the relationship. Photos courtesy of WENN |
Justin Theroux is having a hard time playing “Mr. Jennifer Aniston” Posted: 03 Feb 2012 07:22 AM PST Jennifer Aniston and Angelina Jolie have one big thing in common: the tabloids are never content to allow them to just BE. They are both in a constant state of tabloid-induced drama, either loved up and pregnant or emotionally unstable and breaking up. Most of the tabloids have Jennifer Aniston and Justin Theroux in a state of loved-up, real-estate-purchasing, baby-making bliss. True, In Touch Weekly tried to start something a month ago when they claimed that Justin had "walked out" after Aniston incessantly nagged him about proposing, but other than that, their relationship hasn't gotten the kind of negative scrutiny that you'd expect from an alleged homewrecking of a 14 year relationship. Is that about to change? I don't know. The Enquirer reports this week that all is not well in JustJen-ville. Jennifer seems to treat Justin like his only duty is to carry her purse – that she's the star, and he's just "Mr. Jennifer Aniston".
[From The Enquirer, print edition] I mostly don't believe this because Aniston doesn't come across as a ballbuster, ever, in any situation. Aniston is not a "my way or the highway" kind of woman – she's a whiner. She'll complain about something not going her way, but would she actively try to change someone's behavior? That being said, Justin signed on for all of this – he changed his representation to CAA, he lets Aniston pay the bills, he follows her around from city to city. So is struggling under the pressure? Or is everything fine in JustJen-ville? |
Pippa Middleton is going to uptrade her way into being a duchess, y’all Posted: 03 Feb 2012 06:26 AM PST I don't have the time or the inclination to go through the whole sordid history, but I'll try to recap the major plot points. Last year, Pippa Middleton became a commodity, and as such, her relationship with Alex Loudon suffered. Pippa and Alex were on and off for months before Alex finally dumped her. During a few of their breakups, Pippa began cozying up to her ex, George Percy, the future Duke of Northumberland. She even spent the night at his place, which the paparazzi caught. Since the split with Alex, Pippa spent more time with Percy, and with his roommate (and another ex of Pippa's), JJ Jardine-Paterson. Basically, Pippa has been angling to "uptrade" to someone titled (or filthy rich, or both) for a year. And the British tabloids claim that Pippa has succeeded! YAY FOR UPTRADEY!
[From The Sun] I know Pippa isn't beloved around here, but I like this girl. She works, she has ambitions beyond "getting the ring" and she plays a more aggressive game than her sister. Plus, I just think Pippa has way more personality than Kate. So I'm hoping Pippa did pounce on her prey and that she will be a duchess too (at some point). Yay! PS… George is the blonde dude in these photos. He's not bad-looking, he just seems a bit milquetoast. |
Demi Moore’s two youngest daughters “want nothing to do with her” Posted: 03 Feb 2012 06:24 AM PST
[From In Touch, print edition, February 13, 2012] Fat chance that Demi goes to rehab. She’s turning to Kabbalah as usual to help justify her behavior. I doubt it will help her but I hope I’m wrong. Can you imagine if your mom was partying with your sister and grinding all over guys your age? You would totally try to avoid her. But if she went through a crisis like this, I like to think I’d be there for my mom and I hope that Scout and Tallulah have stepped up. There are plenty of other recent stories about Demi. People is reporting that Demi’s ex, Bruce Willis, wanted her to get help prior to her OD. They report that Bruce “was worried about her and wanted her to get better. Many of her friends did the same thing, but she just wouldn’t listen.” Paparazzi agency X17 reports that both Bruce and Demi’s more recent ex, Ashton Kutcher, visited her separately on Wednesday. Radar has a story straight from Ashton’s camp about how much he cares for Demi and how he’s been praying for her. I know this is spin, but I want to believe this. Here’s Radar’s report:
[From Radar Online] The article goes on to claim that Ashton has been “reclusive and very somber” on the set of “Two and a Half Men.” Ashton has been partying his ass off in Brazil, he’s not all down in the dumps over Demi. It took him a while to get back to the US after her health crisis too. I believe he cares about her and is trying to help, but this portrait of him as “reclusive” and “somber” doesn’t ring true with the photos and tweets we’ve seen from him. I hope that Demi gets sober and well, and that she’s able to retain some sort of career or life’s purpose. She’s supposedly “despondent” that she’s not getting movie roles anymore. Someone moved her cheese and she’s been making herself sick looking for it in the same place over and over again. Tallulah is the blonde in sunglasses. She’s shown on 11-25-11 on a day out in Paris with her dad Bruce. Scout is shown with her dad and his wife Emma Heming on 2-22-10. She’s shown with her mom on 3-24-08. Rumer and Demi are shown out on 1-14-12. Credit: WENN.com |
Is Kim Kardashian dating NY Jets QB Mark Sanchez? Posted: 03 Feb 2012 05:19 AM PST Don't ask me to describe who Kim Kardashian's latest rumored boyfriend is. I had to look him up. According to Radar/TerezOwens.com, Kim has been quietly dating New York Jets QB Mark Sanchez. He's Latino, and from what I'm reading on his Wikipedia, he totally loves musical theater. He also seems WAY too good for Kim. As in, he's employed, he does charity work, and he comes from a good family. Is it really possible that Ol' Kat-face snagged a good one?
[From Radar] If it's true, it's mystifying. Seriously, what do half-way decent dudes see in Kim? It's one thing if you're talking about a guy like Kanye West, who has issues and who could be dating someone trashy like Kim Kardashian (or Amber Rose) for "performance art" or something. But when it's a professional athlete who already has their own high profile? Why even get involved in the Kardashian drama? Maybe Mark Sanchez just feels bad for Kat-face because she's 30 years old, not married and childless. By the way, these are new photos of Kim in Miami with her friend Jonathan. Her face is looking particularly tweaked to me lately. |
