Oprah is not necessarily quititng TV altogether. The rumour is actually that she is quitting her SYNDICATED show in 2011, but that she will be doing another show on her Oprah cable network (or whatever it is) when her syndication show stops.
So, really, doesn't strike me as such huge news. Not like she is leaving tv for good.
The Rihanna line makes me want to cry. I can't imagine what it's like to have to battle through the roller-coaster of emotions that follow an abusive relationship while in the public eye.
BMI, which enforces music royalties, claims an Idaho bar has been playing songs by artists including John Fogerty and Taylor Swift without permission. [TMZ]
Did anyone else read this and think, "Dammit, what will the Body Mass Index control next! Ohhhh..."
So this is how lame I am. When I read the Lost premiere date, I literally put down my Hot Pocket (Hurley would be proud) and started to write a countdown in my agenda. I realized after a minute that I was accidentally counting up instead of down, but then I figured that probably made sense in the context of the show.
So I have about a year and some change to develop a rare body-deforming disease/marry a rich famous person ala Mrs. Seinfeld and ex-Mrs. Rock/become famous myself but not in a Hilton-y way/become a home-decorator-chef-professional organizer-landscaper from Australia/create my own weird self-affirmation religion to get on Oprah.
Wish me luck, guys. I got some plannin' to do!
The Bob Saget show sounds like a slightly watered down version of "Louis Theroux's Weird Weekends" - a British show which was usually interesting. [en.wikipedia.org]
@Lady Skittlehattington: Thank. You. Also, fun fact - she wanted Elvis to record it. He turned it down. Which is too bad, because an Elvis/Dolly collaboration is pretty much the stuff my dreams are made of.
"When I was reading the books, I felt so bad for Jacob's character. I was, like, 'Wow, he can't get the girl he wants and he's being shut down and used.' But now that I'm actually dating Taylor Swift is who amazing and funny and Glinda the Good Witch and totes hot, I realized that Jacob wanted the wrong girl all along and this is really better for everybody."
Carrie maybe you should google "Celebrity Sex Tape Scandal" and see how suing the porn companies worked for Paris Hilton and Kim Kardashian. Paris got nothing, Kim gets a percent of the profits but is also forever tainted with benefitting from something she says she's ashamed for and the message that sends about her character.
Sorry Prejean. You're a porn star now. Vivid is just fucking with you waiting so long to release it. Also, how much damage do you REALLY think you can do to Vivid? Vivid is one of the biggest adult companies.
JESUS CHRIST, CELEBRITIES! PAY YOUR TAXES. It's not that hard of a concept! Yes, I understand you have accountants doing this stuff for you, but at the very least ask to see your paperwork after stuff is filed! Hire a second person to audit yourself!
@Le Kangourou de Kataroo: I KNOW, seriously. My husband has his own business (which is not making celeb kind of money) and somehow we manage to get our taxes right. We were even audited last year and they surprisingly couldn't find anything wrong (and oh, how they tried!).
That Bob Saget show actually does sound interesting - but would you really call that a reality show? They're putting him into situations specifically to film the reaction - it's not just following him around in his every day life. (I guess that's what reality shows have become, but this sounds more like Dirty Jobs or something.)
