Hello again!

After a very exhausting weekend, I'm back to Blogger mode! It's going to be a very busy week, but I'll do my best to get you celebrity news as much as possible.

- I'm going to the Tribeca Film Festival this week, because I'm awesome like that. Just like every other New Yorker. But for those of you who can't make it to the Big Apple, you can watch five of the short films showing at Tribeca here. I'm going to see Gardener of Eden starring Lukas Haas and directed by Kevin Connelly, aka E on "Entourage", Purple Violets with Selma Blair and directed by Edward Burns, and I'm also attending a panel called "FAME!: I'm Gonna Live Forever" about how people can be successful at being famous. The last one was too appropriate for me not to go. I'll let you know what the experience is like.

- Ellen Degeneres has thrown out her back and will be doing her shows from her hospital bed on set this week. My two favorites, Lindsay Lohan and Ryan Seacrest, will be stopping by during visiting hours.

- Debra Opri, the ex-lawyer for Larry Birkhead, will be teaming with Pamela Bach-Hasselhoff in her battle against hubby David Hasselhoff, aka Mitch Buchanan from "Baywatch". The former couple have basically told the world they hate each other, so this could get interesting.

- Damn it. Elisabeth Hasselbeck, or as I like to call her "that annoying bitch who cries too much on 'The View'", announced she is pregnant. Fan-freaking-tastic. Now we're going to have this forced on us for the next six months until she pops out the kid and takes her maternity leave.

- Speaking of "The View", the battle to replace Rosie has begun. And the top contender... Rosie! As in Roseanne Barr! This is so exciting! Although Roseanne claims she has yet to be approached, I'm begging ABC to make this happen. The other front-runners are Whoopi Goldberg, Connie Chung, Kathie Lee Gifford, and Joan Rivers, all of whom I don't think could be funny enough or stir up enough controversy to keep the dying show on the air. Connie Chung doesn't deserve the spot simply because of this terrible display from the last time someone pointed a camera at her...

- I don't how this is possible, but "Dirt" might be coming back for a second season.

- Looks like "Studio 60 on the Sunset Strip" is coming back May 24 after a three month hiatus. I really like this show, so I'm excited about this. Although I think it might be on life support.

- Poor New York was dumped by Tango and she's coming back for round two of "I Love New York", which means I am on the edge of my seat until the show comes back. She's having an open casting call if any of you are interested, which I'm sure you are.

- Britney Spears was pulled over for speeding on Friday night. She was slapped on the wrist with a warning and sent on her way. But I have a bigger bone to pick with the cue ball herself. I have to take back this outfit now that you wore it first. Thanks a lot, Brit.

And another thing...

It's been a big day in the celebrity world. I don't think I've ever said "The View" this many times in one day.

- Turns out I was right. Sanjaya is the product of a drug-induced stupor. His mom, Jillain Blith, and sister, Shyamali, were both arrested in February 2005 for growing pot. Shyamali gave up her mom in exchange for a lighter sentence. Which makes me think... I see a book in Shyamali's future detailing her relationship with Sanjaya a la Donna Hogan's book about her sister entitled Train Wreck: The Life and Death of Anna Nicole Smith.

- Speaking of Sanjaya, he is interviewed in this week's People magazine. He told the mag, "I've always gotten along with girls better because I was raised by women. I got teased in school because people figured I must be gay because I understand women. I think that's why guys didn't like me - because I got along with girls so well. When I went up to girls they would give me a hug and a kiss on the cheek like I was their gay friend. But I was the straight guy that understood them. [Before Idol] I had a girlfriend but she became clingy, and I didn't want to get into a really serious relationship because I was 16. I just wanted to date and have fun." For once, I'm going to have to go with "no comment"...

- After a judge's ruling today, Larry Birkhead is allowed to bring Dannielynn to the US as long as he brings her back in June for the full custody hearing. Ol' Virgie Arthur is allowed to appeal, but it may not have much effect. Since Larry has already sold pictures of his precious daughter that he has fought so desperately to control...I mean love...no telling what will happen when Dannielynn hits the homeland.

- By now, I'm sure you have all heard or heard about Alec Baldwin's voicemail he left on his daughter (with Kim Basinger) Ireland's cell phone last week. This Friday, he will be appearing on "The View". The segment was taped today and Baldwin was said to be "very heartfelt, apologetic and emotional". He said he doesn't want to do "30 Rock" anymore and would like to be removed from his contract. However, NBC just renewed the show for another season. NBC released this statement regarding Alec's comments: "Alec Baldwin remains an important part of '30 Rock'. We look forward to having him continue his role in the show.” Looks like your stuck with Jack Donaghy for now, buddy.

- Victoria Beckham eats?? I must say, I am shocked. In a recent interview, she said, "I began living on vegetables and nothing else. But it never occurred to me that I had an eating disorder." Now she says it is all about control and she's added fish and chicken to her diet. Woah... Slow down there, Posh. Next thing you know, you'll face plant into a giant chocolate cake!

- If you're thinking of getting into acting, maybe Screech could manage your career. Dustin Diamond has started his own management company called A Diamond in the Rough (how clever!) for washed up child actors. Britney Spears has already put in a few calls to his office.

Scary Pic


Wow... I would be terrified if I were Eddie Murphy.

People's Most Beautiful 2007


Drew Barrymore will grace the cover of People magazine as their Most Beautiful for 2007. Also making the not-so-shocking list, Jennifer Aniston, Halle Berry, Patrick Dempsey, Katherine Heigl, Matthew McConaughey, Helen Mirren, and Pete Wentz (?????????). Pete is the furthest from attractive in my mind, but you all know my distaste for eyeliner on guys. Unless they are dressed like women.

- Vanessa Minnillo will be leaving "TRL" after four glorious years of pushing videos on teenagers. She says, "I don't want to be 48 going, 'Hey kids, now it’s Sean Preston Spears’ video!'"

- Kirsten Dunst is just too cool. She claims she "will never date another actor again." Whatever.

- Beyonce has yanked her album "B'Day - Deluxe Edition" because she is being sued for stealing one of Des'ree's songs. That's what you get for being such a beyotch, Beyonce.

Rosie's statement

On "The View" this morning, Rosie O'Donnell said the reason she is not returning to the show is that she and ABC could not agree on contract terms. ABC wanted three years, and she only wanted to commit to one. Barbara is sad about Rosie's departure in June, but Rosie will return regularly next season. They have yet to find a replacement.

As usual, Donald Trump thinks this is all about him.

Babwa says, "Peace out, Rosie!"


TMZ has confirmed that Rosie O'Donnell will be announcing today on "The View" that she is leaving the show. I don't know whether to sing "Glory, Glory, Hallejuah" or break down into tears. Will there be no more controversy? Will I never again see Rosie hanging upside down on a swing in rather unflattering spandex pants? Who will replace her? Will Rosie finally beat the tar out of Elisabeth Hasselbeck? Oh, please let that be her going away present!!!

- Happy Birthday to Al Pacino, who turns 66 today!

- The fictional band Spinal Tap from the Christopher Guest crew will perform at Live Aid this summer in London. In other news, I'm thinking of moving to the other side of the pond. They have so many awesome things go on over there. America sucks. All we have is Britney Spears showing her "lady parts" every five minutes.

- Speaking of Brit, Jessica Simpson is trying to pawn off her manager pa, Joe Simpson. Since Britney's career has taken a tumble, Jess seems to think dad Joe can help her out. So this means he will now be going on every show available to talk about how big Britney's boobs are. Only this time it won't be quite as weird because he won't be talking about his daughter.

- Heather Mills can't shake a leg with the best of them. She was sent home last night on "Dancing with the Stars".

- A fire broke out on the set of The Dark Night, the next in the Batman franchise.

- Melanie Brown, aka "Scary Spice", has named her daughter Angel Iris Murphy Brown. She said, "Angel, as she was my little angel through my pregnancy. Iris, as it's my grandma's name, Murphy because he's the dad, and Brown, because I'm the Mum!" Murphy has still not owned up to his paternity.

- Angelina Jolie is trying to change the name of her new child to Pax Thien Jolie-Pitt. I guess those rumors about the Pitts splitting aren't true.

Rosie, Carrie Underwood, and gross birthing stories

There isn't a lot of giant news today (or I just didn't have time to go through my nine thousand websites), so here is what I could gather up rather quickly. Hope everyone is having a great week! And is supporting Ross the Intern on "Celebrity Fit Club"!!

- Rosie needs to let the Donald Trump thing go. And since I'm guessing no one watched "The Apprentice" finale, here's who won.

- Jonathan Rhys Meyers of "The Tudors" has entered rehab for alcohol.

- Carrie Underwood is dating some dude from the Dallas Cowboys.

- I can hardly watch someone give birth on "Grey's Anatomy", much less Ricki Lake give birth in a bathtub. Sick!

- Oh, the shame! Keira Knightley, Hugh Grant, and Forest Whitaker have signed on to do an episode of "American Idol". But fear not... It's for charity.

See you at the movies! Or will I?

I saw Hot Fuzz this weekend and rather enjoyed it. It is an homage and mainly a spoof of action movies. A perfect cop from London is transferred to a small village after showing up his fellow officers; then he is forced to work with some bumbling idiots and solve mysterious murders. Sounds stupid to me, but it was hysterical! I am a fan of the first movie, Shaun of the Dead, by the Simon Pegg-Edgar Wright crew, which followed a couple of friends trying to escape zombies in Britain. I have never been interested in zombie movies, but a movie that makes fun of them (while paying tribute to them) is all right with me. Pegg and Wright are two of the best comedy writers in the film industry. Hot Fuzz is only open in select cities, but it still managed to pull in at number six in the Box Office this weekend (according to early reports).

Disturbia was number one again, however, it only pulled in $13.5 million. $13.5 million is a lot of money and could buy me a lot of Marc Jacobs bags, but in Box Office terms, this is pocket change. This causes me to wonder how utterly stupid studio owners are. They are constantly talking about how poor turn out is for movies these days, yet they are charging us a year's salary just to gain entrance. But as viewers diminish, prices go up. So for the same price that Angelina Jolie spent on her last foreign kid, you can get a Coke, a small popcorn, and a ticket to see Blades of Glory.

The biggest puzzle to me is why studios just don't use common sense. If I have a choice of paying $11 to go see the ridiculous looking In the Land of Women or renting it for $4 when it comes out on DVD, I'm going to choose the latter. Now studios churn out DVDs like Catholics pop out kids, so what does it hurt me to wait three months? I will inevitably rent every Sisterhood of the Traveling Pants and Snakes on a Plane that comes out, simply to complain about how terrible they were. This pastime of mine was a little bit harder to achieve several years ago when we had to wait close to a year or more for a film to hit Wal-Mart. But now, crap like Because I Said So is released on February 2, does shitty at the Box Office, and is released on DVD by May 8. It infuriates me to find that I paid $11 to see a movie, only for it to be on DVD a week later.

Week after week, I read articles pondering, "Where have all the movie patrons gone?" This makes me want to drive to Los Angeles, break into Universal, and smack the studio head in the face with my Rainbow flip-flop. But instead, I will sit back and watch as they begin to release movies on iTunes. Now you only have to wait a month to buy Vacancy for the fraction of the ticket price and watch it on your iPod on the subway. Glorious!

A change will do you good

I changed up the look of Pop Guru a bit and I think it might make it a little easier to read. It will still have the same excellent (if I do say so myself) content, just a new and improved look! Hope you like it!

Hell hath no fury like a Lohan scorned


Remember when Lindsay Lohan was dating Harry Morton? Yeah, I forgot, too. Well, considering her revolving door of man skanks... But I wouldn't dare cross The Lohan. Morton lives in the same apartment building as Lindsay in LA; only one floor lies between them. In a very Single White Female act, someone (I'm not saying Lindsay!) accidentally left the tub running in Lohan's apartment. As she lives directly above Morton, the water leaked into his apartment and caused $150,000 in damages.

Lindsay's rep says she was in New York at the time, but sources say she was partying it up in LA that night. Hmmm...

Oh... Snap!


I don't know who is scarier... Joan Rivers or Lisa Rinna? Regardless, TV Guide Channel has replaced Joan and Melissa Rivers with Lisa Rinna as the new red carpet fashionista. Lisa, a former contestant on "Dancing with the Stars", says it is her "dream job".

TV Guide Channel say they "wish them the best in their future endeavors." Ouch... That is never good to hear. For once in her life, Joan is keeping mum about the subject. She says, "I will tell you my true feelings and experiences, as soon as we finalize our new deal."

Expect to see Lisa Botoxed and ready for her closeup in September on TV Guide Channel.

On TV Tonight

Since some of you have lives, this information may not pertain to you. But for those of you who don't, here's what's on TV tonight:

8pm - "America's Next Top Model", CW: The models go to Australia this week and I can't wait to see them interview local townsfolk. I get a little too much joy out of making fun of Tyra. "Kiss my fat ass!" Girl, you don't know what fat is.

8:30pm - "Notes from the Underbelly", ABC: I expected this to be terrible, but it's not so bad. As long as they refrain from mentioning any more "lady parts", I think I can stomach it.

9pm - "American Idol", FOX: This 9pm time slot used to be filled with an hour of Sawyer and Kate frollicking on "Lost". Now it is dominated by Ryan Seacrest and his army of idiots. It is safe to say I will spend this hour on Facebook.

10pm - "Lost", ABC: I knew all along Juliet was working for The Others. I don't trust that shady lady. A new Internet theory is that she is pregnant and is doing what Ben wants to get off the island. Tonight is about Charlie though, so I'm not sure how much we will find out.

Here's what I won't be watching: "American Idol" (obviously), "Jericho", "Thank God You're Here", "Pussycat Dolls Present: The Search for the Next Doll", and any episodes of the "Law & Order" franchise

Happy Birthday, Suri!

Photo: Vanity Fair

It has been one year since the birth of Suri Cruise (or if you believe the rumors, almost two years). No birthday party plans have been revealed yet. The world's youngest celebutante is sure to have a fabulous affair, most likely in Shreveport, LA, where mother Katie Holmes is currently filming her first movie since she signed her life away/met Tom Cruise. It is called Mad Money and costars Diane Keaton and Queen Latifah. Well, Happy Birthday, Suri! Don't choke on your silver spoon.

- Why even get out of bed in the morning? Without Lindsay Lohan by your side, that is. The egomaniac tells Allure, "When my friends and family are around me I feel like they're safe . . . When my friends have left me - I've just seen everything collapse. They're not safe without me." If you are such a great protector, then what does everyone do while you party all night, go to rehab, and basically only focus on one thing... Lindsay. Newsflash... The world doesn't revolve around you.

- Richard Gere is on fire in India. The people of India are outraged after he dipped Bollywood actress Shilpa Shetty and kissed her on the hand and cheek. Public displays of affection are not welcomed in India and his actions have been considered extremely offensive. People have been burning photos of Gere in protest.

- Paris Hilton goes to court on May 4 for her driving violations.

- Isaiah Washington, aka Dr. Burke on "Grey's Anatomy", will play a sexually abused Catholic priest in an upcoming movie, The Least of These.

- Adam McKay, father of nasty landlord Pearl, had an interview with People regarding the hilarious video that has been all over the place recently.

- Kristin Cavallari is selling herself for cash. The reality star has been pushing herself on clubs in LA. They pay her for appearances, hoping to bring in more customers. Now she is peddling her 21st birthday party. I guess you have to make the rent somehow.

- Don't ever wear this again...

Pearl the Landlord

Man, Will Ferrell's landlord is a bitch! Click here to see Will and his business partner Adam McKay's new video. Pearl is actually Adam's daughter.

I need to get my drink on. Peace.

Guess who is engaged?

- Harrison Ford, 64, and Calista Flockhart, 42, are supposedly tying the knot.

- Britney Spears may have fired her manager, Larry Rudolph, because he has dropped the ball regarding her career. He is the one to blame for the train wreck that was Brit's friendship with Paris Hilton.

- Turns out George isn't so happy at Seattle Grace.

- Lily Allen has cancelled her US Tour.

Free Cone Day

Ben and Jerry's is giving away free ice cream cones today between 12-8pm. Click here to see which stores near you are participating. You're welcome.

AHHH!!

Photo: WireImage
- Now there's an image I thought I would never see! Liberal basher Ann Coulter and "Good Times" star Jimmie "JJ" Walker showed up together to the TV Land Awards this weekend. Thankfully, the two are not dating.

- Larry Birkhead was seen partying "in between court sessions" and he was "having the time of his life". Hmmmm... If I had just fought an extremely public battle to win custody of my daughter, I think I might be spending time with my child after my victory. But that's just me.

- Apparently the Hogans might be breaking up?? I think he might be mad since she put a red sock in with all of his yellow leotards.

- It has been reported that Vanessa Minnillo is having a bad hair day and wants to hire Jessica Simpson's stylist/best friend/mannequin, Ken Paves. I don't buy this and neither should you.

- Rachel Weisz has dropped out of The Mummy 3 due to scheduling conflicts. I know this movie will probably make a lot of money, but she just gained so much more respect from me.

- Anna Nicole Smith's diaries failed to sell at an auction this weekend. Shocker.

Queen Killa

- Prince William and Kate Middleton (who looks just like Lauren Conrad from "The Hills") have split, making room for me to become the future Queen of England.

- Shia LaBeouf, currently in Disturbia and the world's next biggest star, has signed on to play the role of Indiana Jones' son in the upcoming movie.

- Willa Ford will be starring as Anna Nicole Smith in the movie about her life. In a desperate attempt to become her character (and get some attention), she purchased an exact replica of Anna Nicole's pink bed designed by stereotype Bobby Trendy. Trendy will make a cameo in the movie as himself. This sounds like it will be the finest piece of cinema ever made.

- If you gag easily, do not read this story. Us Weekly reports that Paris Hilton and new man candy Josh Henderson of "Desperate Housewives" participated in a "makeout off" Tuesday night at LA club Area. When Paris saw her ex makeout partner Travis Barker snuggling with his rekindled flame Shanna Moakler, both couples engaged in a contest of disgusting PDAs "as if they were trying to one up each other". They are now in search of a sponsor for the contest and are hoping to make it an Olympic event. I'll let you know when tryouts are announced.

- Looking for some uplifting tunes? My new obsession is Mika's album "Life in Cartoon Motion". I highly suggest downloading it. You might recognize the song "Love Today" as the promo song on some of MTV's commercials for their Monday night lineup.

- Quote of the week: "And, like, I saw these magazines, and they said I was pregnant, and like it’s so true. Like, America, believe everything you read because like you’re smart and I’m stupid. Like for real. C’mon y’all.” - Britney Spears

Don't call me a stalker


Yesterday a friend and I encountered one Tim Gunn outside of the Marc Jacobs store in Greenwich Village. Despite my trying to pretend I have a life, I will drop anything to follow a celebrity. And that is precisely what we did. She got a good picture with her camera phone. Should I feel bad that we followed him home? Maybe. Do I? No.

Brangelina, Bennifer, and Calohn...

If I get my wish and start dating John Krasinski, our couple nickname would be "Calohn". What would you and your significant other's nickname be? Find out with USA Today's Nickname-o-Matic.

Despite all the Anna Nicole coverage, other things are going on in the world. Here are some highlights:

- Scarlett Johansson is now being linked with another hot guy in Hollywood... Ryan Reynolds. They have been seen eating together several times in Manhattan and one source says, "They were definitely holding hands." Reynolds and his fiancee of three years, Alanis Morissette, ended their engagement in February.

- Ashlee Simpson and Pete Wentz of Fall Out Boy have been seen canoodling various places recently. I can see the connection there. At least he always has somebody to borrow eyeliner from.

- The Live Earth lineup has been announced. Tickets are available starting Monday, April 16. Kanye West, Kelly Clarkson, and Bon Jovi are among the acts. Red Hot Chili Peppers will only be playing in London. Speaking of charitable causes, anybody want to buy me a ticket to London?

- Snoop Dogg was charged with two felonies today for his arrests for gun and drug possession. He could be in jail for four years if convicted. For shizzle.

- He may as well just rent a cell. Jason Wahler of "Laguna Beach" was arrested AGAIN on Sunday morning. This is the fourth time he has been arrested in nine months. He was arrested in a Seattle hotel after police found him "very intoxicated" and wrestling with another male in the lobby.

- "Dancing with the Stars" host Samantha Harris is expecting a baby.

- Elisabeth Shue has been practicing her moves on the tennis court. The actress, who most of our generation knows from Adventures in Babysitting, hopes to one day compete professionally. She says, "I've been training so hard, now I feel like more of a tennis player than an actress."

"I Told You So"


That's what Larry Birkhead had to say when he approached the podium today at the press conference. Birkhead is the father, but he does not have legal custody of Dannielynn...for now. Dannielynn will have to stay in the Bahamas until the custody trial is over. Howard K. Stern says, "I am obviously very disappointed ... I am not going to fight Larry Birkhead for custody." He also said, "I will do everything I can to make sure he [Birkhead] gets sole custody."

Virgie Arthur did not state at the news conference today that she will fight Birkhead for custody, but she did say she "looks forward to working" with him regarding the future for Dannielynn. If she does fight for custody, she doesn't have a very good chance. Anna Nicole did not even speak to her mother. Also, in 1993, Donald Ray Hart Jr., Arthur's son, kidnapped a handicapped woman along with three other friends. They threatened her with a butcher knife and discussed how to kill her. Fortunately, they were caught before they could go through with their plans and the woman was rescued. Hart was sentenced to six years in jail for the crime.

As for Prince Frederic Von Anhalt, the husband to Zsa Zsa Gabor who also claimed to be Dannielynn's father, his reps released a statement to TMZ regarding the paternity. They said, "We never intended to take Dannielynn from anyone, we were just here in case Prince Von Anhalt was the father. We wish Larry luck in raising Dannielynn and we wish him the best."

There is a hearing on Friday, but all involved were mum as to what it is about. I'll keep you posted!

Thanks to perezhilton.com for the picture.

Larry Birkhead is Dannielynn's Father

Larry Birkhead has confirmed that he is the father of Dannielynn Hope after the results were revealed in court today. Howard K. Stern said previously that he will not fight Birkhead for custody, but Anna Nicole Smith's mother, Virgie Arthur, plans to battle Birkhead for little Dannielynn.

I'll let you know what other information I can find out.

Comedy Night Done Right

NBC has all new and expanded shows tonight. What used to be known as "Must See TV" starts tonight at 8pm with a forty minute episode of "The Office" followed by a forty minute episode of "30 Rock". Catch Will Arnett, my comedic crush and Amy Poehler's real-life husband, as Alec Baldwin's rival on "30 Rock" tonight. The only rerun is "My Name is Earl" with an episode featuring Roseanne, but I'm all right with that because I need to get my Roseanne fix any way I can.

Halle, "30 Rock", and much more


- Halle Berry finally got her star on the Hollywood Walk of Fame yesterday, four years after she was supposed to.

- "30 Rock" has been renewed for another season. Yay!

- "7th Heaven", "The Black Donnellys", and "Six Degrees" are all kaput. The "7th Heaven" theme song will forever be burned into my memory though, so you might just get to hear it after a few drinks.

- Hilary Duff and Lindsay Lohan have been hanging out recently, putting to rest their five year long fued over Aaron Carter. Yeah, that's right. I said Aaron Carter. Could this have anything to do with La Lohan's image makeover and Duff's upcoming album? No. Never!

- Jodie Foster and Anderson Cooper are both featured on the cover of Out magazine, although neither have ever admitted their sexual orientation.

- Keith Richards admitted to snorting a bit of his father's ashes with a little cocaine. Then he took it back. However, I would keep all urns under lock and key in case he ever does run out of the nose candy.

- Heidi Montag of "The Hills" got a boob job, which I'm sure Spencer requested.

- Few people showed up for the "Project Runway" auditions in LA, which could mean trouble for the show. What will I do without Tim Gunn in my life?

- Anna Faris of Scary Movie fame has filed for divorce.

- Woo! "Run's House" is back for another season next Monday on MTV.

- Whitney Houston and Bobby Brown will make their divorce official on April 24. No more drug-induced political arguments... Tear.

- A member of Three 6 Mafia's entourage pissed on Jennifer Love Hewitt's lawn, something she's been doing to our television lineup for years. Payback is a bitch, Hewitt.

Ok, I'm going to watch "Lost". Peace!

Links

I finally figured out how to post a link and you actually be directed to the correct website. If you see something underlined in the future, click on it. It's a video or a website I think you should see. I have already corrected the Alanis Morissette post below. Enjoy!

I shall miss you New York

So, I finally watched Borat last night. As much as I wanted to hate it, I have to say it was pretty darn funny. Don't expect me to be saying "Wa-wa-wee-wa" anytime soon though.

- The "I Love New York" finale was last night. I was shocked when New York picked Tango "to be her rock", and even more shocked when he gave her a real rock. I really wanted her to pick Chance so they could do a reality show on their life together, but I guess they'll just be doing a wedding planning show with her and Tango. I feel I should shed a tear for the end of this show, but only two more weeks until Monique's Charm School!! Don't judge me.

- Britney Spears and Kevin Federline's divorce was finalized last week. The media reports that she was going to the hospital for a toothache were false. She was really going to a lawyer's office next door to the hospital. FedEx only got $1 million in the settlement. How will he ever survive off that?

- Melanie Brown, aka Scary Spice, finally had her baby girl last night. The baby has not been named and will only be referred to as "Baby Brown" for now. A paternity test will be taken in the future to determine whether the baby daddy is Eddie Murphy or not. Maury Povich is standing by with his manila envelopehttp://www2.blogger.com/img/gl.link.gif ready to go.

- I got some good laughs out of Alanis Morissette's cover of "My Humps" this morning. Maybe you will enjoy it, too.

- Rose McGowan and Robert Rodriguez, producer of her new movie Grindhouse supposedly got it on during filming and may still be together after breaking up his marriage.

- There may be a convention for "The Office" in Scranton, PA next November. There will be screenings of old episodes and appearances by some of the cast members. Maybe this will finally be my "chance" meeting with John Krasinski.

- Speaking of "The Office", Ricky Gervais has decided to end his HBO show "Extras" with a star-studded Christmas special. He did the same with the original British version of "The Office". Madonna will supposedly make an appearance in the final episode.

- Bob Barker is retiring soon from "The Price is Right" and his replacement might be George Hamilton. From one super-tanned old perv to the next.

- Donald Trump kept his hair Sunday night. Damn!

- Scarlett Johansson's movie "Nanny Diaries" has been pushed back from its original release date in April until September to better their chances for award season. Um... Whatever you say. Usually when a movie gets pushed back, this means it's crap and they have to go back and reshoot. Only time will tell.

- Remember cute little Andy Keaton from "Family Ties"? Yeah... He's not so cute anymore. Former child actor Brian Bonsall, now 25, was arrested this weekend for throwing alcohol on his girlfriend while she slept, putting her in a choke hold, and then throwing her on the bed.

"Six Degrees" of Smith Jerrod

Yesterday I decided to watch a new episode of ABC's "Six Degrees". I only watched like two episodes of the show before it went on hiatus because I thought it was really sucky, to put it mildly. But boredom set in yesterday and our DVR is still recording it, so I gave it another shot.

I don't get this show. I mean I get that these people continue to have random connections in New York City, but this just isn't realistic. I have yet to form a relationship with the cop that I met on the subway that's stalking me. Anywho, I was extremely confused by one issue on this show. Smith Jerrod from "Sex and the City", aka Jason Lewis, is doing it with Bridget Monyahan on "Six Degrees" on Friday nights. Yet, on Sundays, I can catch him doing it with one of the brothers on ABC's "Brothers & Sisters", the other show I think is sucky but keep watching each week waiting to be wowed because all of my female friends think it is fantastic (I can't decide if I don't like the show because of its content or because I despise Calista Flockhart). I can't keep up. Is Jason Lewis gay or straight? Is he dating Bridget or Samantha? Is ABC that starved for actors that they recycle them in all of their new shows? What is this - The WB?

I will not be watching "Six Degrees" again. It doesn't really have a chance anyway seeing as ABC brought it back after a very long hiatus and put it on the Friday night lineup. Also on this episode, Probie from "Rescue Me" made an appearance. If this means he won't be returning to the firehouse in June, I will be irate! Anyway, just thought I would share my thoughts on the subject. Have a good day!
