I can't believe the hubris the Real NYC Housewives are displaying, have they seen how easy it is for the Bravo casting department to cast these Housewives shows? Sorry ladies, its not you its the editing. You can be replaced.
@bluebears: Especially after the NJ season. I would gladly pay the NJ women whatever they wanted. The NY housewives are lucky Bravo is even paying attention to them.
@AndThenTheresMaude: plus its so greedy, Bravo lets them use the show as a free platform to pimp all their bullshit products! Its probably the equivelant of millions of dollars in advertising.
Ugh, Michael Bay is such a creep and a goon. I was reading some of the revealed blind items on Crazy Days and Nights yesterday (at work of course) and there was an unsurprising one revealed about Michael Bay:
Last week, this A list director of some very huge films was shooting his new movie. After work, our director went to a local restaurant (as was his routine) where he picked up two local floozies. After buying them a few drinks and impressing them with his big-shot "I'm a Big Hollywood Director" come-on, our director took the two tramps back to his hotel for a night of debauchery. Little did our director know what he was getting himself into!
Turns out that this pair of hometown hotties weren't as dumb as our director thought. In fact, there were certified pros, if you get my meaning. (Word has it ugly pros, too - but hey, whattaya want.)
Anyway, flash forward a few hours
Our director wakes up the next morning feeling all kinds of groggy. He discovers his wallet missing, and worst of all - his laptop stolen. On the purloined laptop was reportedly the script to his new movie and several highly secret, ultra-confidential, For-His-Eyes-Only visual FX sequences for the new movie that could be leaked any day now. Not surprisingly, the studio is furious with our director and his utter lack of discretion.
So the last time Brooke Shields saw Michael Jackson was in 1991, and yet in his interview with Oprah Winfrey - in 1993 - he said he and Shields were dating. Well, it's not like anyone actually believed him at the time, anyway.
Pan Walesa .....hush. I know you're upset about your lack of relevance these days, and that you're incredibly fervently Catholic, and will leap at any opportunity to get in the papers but HUSH. Poland doesn't need the "crazy super Catholic" stereotype reinforced any further.
I have to admit that I am baffled by all the coverage Michael Jackson is getting. I understand that he is an icon and a legend, but his death has completely eclipsed everything else. Many news organizations have put Iran, North Korea, Iraq, the economy, etc. on the back burner. I know I sound old and angry, but yeah, maybe I am or something.
@Sputnik_Sweetheart: Well, it shouldn't baffle you. It should annoy, not baffle. There are people spending a significant amount of time photographing the possible stages of
@Sputnik_Sweetheart: I totally agree. I just wonder how much longer this can possibly go on. I have no interest at all at this stage. There are so many more pressing issues as you have stated.
@Sputnik_Sweetheart: I'm so sick of it. I think the news organizations don't understand that the man wasn't a real King. (Hell, I think this media coverage would be overkill for an actual King.)
@Kivrin: Well, I'd think MJ's coverage is more understandable than that of an inherited monarchy, since, you know, he earned his fame. That being said, still a tad overdone and leave the poor mourners alone.
@Khrushchev: Exactly. I understand (to a degree) the outpouring of love. But the news coverage? Way over the top. It would be excessive even for a real King whose death might have potential political or societal implications.
Michael Jackson news = huge traffic for TMZ. You don't say? Look, I lived through what most consider to be the tail-end of his career and even I'm familiar with his ability to totally dominate the media. TMZ = losers.
Re: Congressman King: SHUT IT. Does your wee-wee feel small because no one's gonna mourn you when you die?
@stoprobbers: Sure, tabloid journalists are assholes, but recently they have actually been breaking stories. (TMZ reporting MJ's death hours ahead of the networks, the Enquirer with John Edwards, etc.) I assume this is because they'll print something with less corroboration than the major networks since they're less afraid of having to issue a retraction if they're wrong.
I'm going to sound incredibly naive but you'd think someone with Michael Bay's power and money in Hollywood wouldn't have to resort to...to this kinda tactic to get his kicks. Wtf? If its true it so clearly makes the point that relatively speaking, women in Hollywood are mere accessories for powerful men to play with. Yes we all know this, but in this example its just reprehensible.
My disclaimer is of course that I don't know how Megan Fox feels about the whole thing and yes I am projecting what I would and how i do feel.
@whatsername: Yeah, I'm no fan of Megan Fox, and I think actors in general have it pretty easy, but how humiliating. Michael Bay is really, really creepy.
@Mireille tried, and she failed miserably! The lesson is: n...: It's not like she was forced to do it. Bay is creepy but she chose to comply and I have no sympathy for her. She couls have slapped him and told the papers what the audition consisted of, or something like it - but instead she went ahead and scrubbed the old man's Ferrari. Bah.
@clarafier: @Name of Numbers: The problem with this defense is that in Hollywood the casting couch is still very much in affect and some people are so desperate to make it as an actor that they'll do anything.
Also, it kinda sounds like you're blaming her for what he did.
