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!
@JinxyMcDeath: Oh, and what people should really be asking Natalie Portmant is why she signed that Polanski petition. Maybe she was drunk and/or high that day? #angelinajolie
@kansasgirl: Wow. I guess you missed the point...which is me yearning for the day where it's legal to smoke weed...and thus, socially acceptable to do so. From that harsh response, I think you might profit from some weed yourself. #angelinajolie
@JinxyMcDeath: Sorry, I did miss your point. I don't think that legal = socially acceptable. FWIW, I think pot should be legal (but I don't think that will automatically make it socially acceptable). #angelinajolie
The more Stephanie Meyer quotes I read, the more she scares me.
Would it be presumptuous to assume Mr. Pattison ought also to be afraid, lest he wake up one morning (or afternoon) covered with sparkles and unable to get away?
"Leona Lewis has turned down a $1 million offer to pose for Playboy. "
Is this some sort of rite of passage or something? Every time I read Playboy has made that offer, the celeb in question has turned it down.
Even in a recession.
@Rooo sez BISH PLZ: It's a common media pr move for upcoming starlets. You say Playboy offered you an outlandish sum of money to pose but you denied it. It usually generates a minor news story, getting your name out there for a day or two. It also sets up that you must be OMG SO HOT and that you are far too classy and successful to need to pose for Playboy.
In this case, I have no idea who Leona Lewis is and yet I looked her up. So I guess she wins. #angelinajolie
@BowlingForDollars: Am I horrible for having chuckled out loud, with an undertone that could arguably have been described as malicious, after I read this? #angelinajolie
That is actually very polite of Vivid to ask her first. In my mind she has a tantrum at them and they accidentally release it with all the royalties going to a Vivid subset which isn't technically affiliated with Vivid and disappears when Prejean tries to sue it. Don't tantrum with porn companies.
@Snowbunny: I would say rather than being polite, it was just their standard way of drumming up more press. They have done that before. "Polite" and porn rarely go together!
@Snowbunny: I thought she was supposed to be 17 when all of this went down. That makes it pretty creepy to me. She's an idiot, but we do have laws. Even if she was 18, I think it's horrible and exploitative to release these images that were made for her boyfriend. She's hypocritical, but that doesn't mean that the world needs to see them. I just hope no one buys her book. #angelinajolie
@acookieaday: She wasn't 17, she was in her 20's. She tried to get her boyfriend to lie about her being 17 so they wouldn't get released. #angelinajolie
