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!
"Oh, KK. I'm so over the Red Carpet being pregnant too! I mean, is it in it's eighteenth trimester or something? The thing has been preggers forevs! Like, WTF and junk. I wonder if when it gives birth, the baby will be an Oriental Throw Rug? Cuz I totes need one for my liberry at the 'Bu Beach House. L8TRS!" #beyoncebabyplans
I wonder if I can make a plea to Jamie and Martin to PLEASE. NOT. DO. THIS. I'm truly weary of the massacre on the black female image by black men. It's so very old. And it's so very painful. #beyoncebabyplans
At first I was like, Ian McKellen, what? Not that comparisons to homophobia and antisemitism are necessarily wrong, but it does seem odd that he's comparing a lack of gay bars outside London to the Holocaust.
Then I remembered that he is not just Gandalf, but also Magneto, and therefore had to get into the mind of a character who would have been a Jew in central Europe in a certain period. So he may be talking about that. Because then it's like "Being gay is kind of like being a Jew in the early 20th century. And both of those things are also like being a mutant with superpowers." And that makes sense to me. #beyoncebabyplans
It's early for me, and so perhaps my math is off, but if Jesus' mother (I can't get over writing that) is 36 and he's 23, she had him when she was thirteen years old. #beyoncebabyplans
The thing that weirds me out about the Madonna thing is that somebody called MADONNA is dating somebody called JESUS. And the age difference doesn't help, as far as that goes. #beyoncebabyplans
@FizzyGood: Indeed there is something frightfully Oedipal about that.
I hope she embraces the incredible camp potential and makes a whole concept album about her boytoy saving her from her sins or something. My desire to see this come to fruition proves that I will only continue being interested in Madonna if she basically becomes Bette Midler. Which--admit it---would be way more awesome than her current incarnation. #beyoncebabyplans
