While it is refreshing to see you covered up, you really shouldn't be wearing that a top hat and tails unless you're riding at very high levels of dressage. Which I'm going to go ahead and say, I doubt. Shocker that you're in it for the image and not the sport itself. That, and you'd surely give yourself two black eyes if you attempted a sitting trot.
How sad Amy's dad has to distance himself... I saw that clip of her St. Lucia concert and it was gut-wrenching. Just a very short time ago when she blew up I'd boast to friends I'd found an artist I liked who also sounded good live. Her company really needs to stop riding her for a while and let her come around on her own time. You can't force recovery on anybody. At least her own family is starting to get it.
I know a lot of people get "sick" of her story, the way I did about say, Britney's, but Amy is a real talent and I am just deeply saddened by her ordeal.
I still can't understand why the produces of Slumdog couldn't have paid some sum to the families for a decent home (or whatever else they needed) IN ADDITION to setting up an educational fund for the kids. I enjoyed the movie but now I just have a bad taste left in my mouth.
Every time I see or read something about Ashton Kutcher, I think about the SNL sketch where Justin Timberlake played him on Punk'd and kept exclaiming, "I'm awesome!" Definitely tired of him and his goofy persona. Seriously, why am I supposed to care what he's doing in those camera commercials?
@LucyRed: Seriously. Ashton Kutcher and Tom Green are two "comedians" that I just can't stand. They're not only *not* funny, they seem to think that they need to announce that they're funny, instantly killing any comedy. Oy, look at me, I'm goofy!
Prince Harry better watch himself in NY. He might run into some 'wogs' and 'Pakis' who haven't heard of his grandma or his mama, and will just kick his ass for being such a bitch.
@Michaela Stephens: Oh silly me. Just because I'm one of the 'darker ones' isn't any reason why I should be offended when a jumped little punk (who my family has been supporting for years) makes racist commets. I guess those kind of things are okay with you. Everybody loves a lord.
@a_mama: That's what happens when you let 'TV people' attend a fashion/society event. While all this sympathy is poured on famous drunk driver/mean drunk Kiefer, is it possible to save some for the man who had to undergo SURGERY because nobody seems to care enough to get a dangerous person in rehab or jail.
Oh and speaking of not caring enough to get someone to rehab, Fuck off Amy Winehouse's dad. If you spent a fraction of the time you devote to telling the press who concerned you are for Amy, actually BEING CONCERNED about Amy and getting her some help, maybe your golden goose could actually have some health and happiness while she's paying your bills.
Why is so much space in DirtBag devoted to the likes of Jordan, John Mayer, Ashton Kutcher and other non-entities? Jennifer Aniston is making a movie called 'The Baster'. Obviously she doesn't have any other options.
Hey Brit journos who are far too fascinated by Jordan's riding coaches, the term DQ (Dressage Queen) applies to men as much as it does to women. They're just friends. Now get your cameras away from the horses.
I remember one drunken night in college when, for reasons unknown, I drew on a guy's forehead, and he apparently copped a feel during this exercise. I didn't notice (yay for tiny boobs and padded bras, I suppose?) but a couple of my (also drunken) guy friends did. They didn't do anything right then but all told me about it later and basically indicated that if he'd gone ANY further they might have punched him.
But good lord, not a HEADBUTT. Geez Kiefer.
Also, is it weird that I'm somewhat delighted at the idea of Brooke Shields being trashed?
What happened to Jennifer Hudson is beyond awful, and I'm glad she has something to hold on to to help her get through it.
That being said, I've never understood why some people find it more comforting to think that there's somebody/thing that is controlling us in these situations. I had already lost my belief in God before I lost someone very close to me, but the last comfort in the world is that it's part of "God's plan." Eff that; I'd much rather think that horrible things just happen than that there's a being dictating them.
@InCahoots: This is in no way meant to disparage Ms. Hudson--she's been through something horrible and I'm glad she has something to take comfort in.
But I, too, actually take comfort in that I don't believe in any higher power dictating the events that happen to me. There's a difference between causality and fate. If something bad happened to me tomorrow, and someone tried to comfort me by telling me "it happened for a reason", I wouldn't be able to derive any comfort from that. I'd rather believe that bad things happen just because this universe is unpredictable and chaotic, rather than that something out there is trying to teach me a lesson.
That said, I'm glad Ms. Hudson IS able to derive comfort in her own way. Everyone has the right to find their own meaning.
@InCahoots: But you respect the fact that Ms. Hudson has her own beliefs and is entitled a little respect, right? Or did compassion disappear with your believe in God?
Yeah, good point. But just b/c you provide a disclaimer doesn't mean you can be disrespectful and dismissive to someone's religious outlook. I'm mainly referring to the phrase "Eff that; I'd much rather think that horrible things just happen than that there's a being dictating them" I agree with Topsy it sounds like Incahoots is putting Hudson down for her beliefs.
@BiteMeMitchell!: Oh my God you're right!! How did I ever forget that?! I'll just say that the idea came to me from the far reaches of my memory, because, hand to God, I owned this compilation in cassette-tape form when it first came out. So, I'm old, and that's probably why I forgot.
@ellaesther: I actually thought that Red Hot and Blue album was awesome, especially Neneh Cherry doing I've Got You Under My Skin, and the Sinead O'Connor one. This weekend, I think I shall mostly be trying to download all those tracks.
@BiteMeMitchell!: It's hours later, but I'm finally back and must say: Yes!! It's awesome, stellar, amazing, all the superlatives you can think of. I loved it and listened to it kind of endlessly.

and if Jon and Kate want to continue to do a show, maybe cut it down to one or two shows a year, to give their family a little breathing room.

Your attempts at an apology don't see the least bit sincere

Ashley Tisdale got punk'd into believing her singing had woken a little boy from a coma. Oh, I laughed and laughed...
