This Week in Tabloids: Zac Efron Desperately Seeking Menage à Trois
CelebritiesWelcome back to Midweek Madness! Every Wednesday, Kristine Gutierrez pops over to the newsstand to buy the latest issues of In Touch, Ok!, Life & Style, Star and Us. Then, together we attempt to find needles of truth in haystacks of gossip. This week: Summer will be babymania since Kate Middleton and Kim Kardashian have the same due date; Alexander Skarsgard is sad and lonely and dreaming of a wife; and Zac Efron and his stripper ladyfriend would like to cuddle with you, preferably in the nude.
Ok!
“Baby Joy And Tears!”
Apparently there’s nothing going on in the world of celebrities, so Ok! profiles two pregnant celebs and one maybe-most-definitely-not pregnant celeb. This is an “EXCLUSIVE” story, despite no real news about Kate Middleton’s amazing pregnancy and Kim Kardashian’s stressful pregnancy and Miranda Lambert, who will make a great mom when she decides to get pregnant. If she does. How this is “exclusive,” “shocking” “baby news” (as stated on the cover) remains a mystery. Blake Lively is trying to be the perfect wife, even going as far as matching her schedule to her husband Ryan Reynold’s. Khloe Kardashian had i-Lipo, which is liposuction via iPhone? No, apparently, it’s a non-surgical laser treatment that trims all the shameful fatty fat. Finally, Snooki and her baby daddy Jionni might get married in Disneyland. Snooze snooze snooze.

“$200 Million Divorce”
Don’t be fooled: No divorce papers have been filed. But Bruce might divorce Kris and some random divorce attorneys say that he could get mad bank, if he did. Bruce has apparently moved out, but that might just be because the show’s plotlines are stale? Next: Amanda Bynes is “gunning” for Liam Hemsworth by trying to emulate Miley Cyrus. One of the more hilarious fake stories ever. If getting a buzzcut and smoking pot makes you a Miley copycat, then Brad Pitt, Rihanna, Justin Timberlake and most lacrosse teams are all wannabe Mileys. (Fig. 1) What else? Naomi Campbell’s protégé model Lou Zilin has been nuzzling up to Naomi’s billionaire ex-boyfriend. Uh-oh. Cell-phone throwing threat level alert: HIGH. Jennifer Aniston wore the same Prada dress twice in public and looks much “fuller” now than when she wore the dress in 2011. Pregnancy or dinner??? (Fig. 2) Farrah Abraham got another boob job (are you keeping count?) and has shelled out a total of $30K for all her plastic surgery. FYI, she also hates it when she sees a hot guy with an ugly girlfriend. Finally, on Kanye’s birthday, Kim was stuck at home making a collage of their relationship. Sweet or serial-killer-esque?
