July 12, 2010

Her youngest children, Knox and Vivienne, turn 2 today, and though Angelina Jolie says that she and partner Brad Pitt are usually exhausted from raising their brood of six, she can’t help but want more. “We always have this thing, first thing in the morning, where we’re really, really tired, and we look at each other and we wonder, Are we ever going to get sleep?” Angelina, who says that she and Brad are basically “waiters” to the kids, told Good Morning America. “And yet we still love the idea of having more children.” And according to Angelina, it’s Maddox, 8, Pax, 6, Zahara, 5, Shiloh, 4, and the twins who will decide when their parents tie the knot. “I think it would be hard to say no to the kids,” she said, but so far, “they’re not asking. They are very aware that nothing is missing.”

Gentlemen, Start Your Staring!


The AMP Energy Bullrun Rally is an annual eight-day race across the country, pitting 100 cars against one another to see who can leave from New York City and get to Las Vegas first.

What does this have to do with Kim Kardashian? Absolutely nothing, except she pocketed thousands of dollars to serve as the official “Flag Girl” for the start of the event on Saturday.

We’d make some comment about this being a sign of the Apocalypse (how can someone with so little talent make so much money for doing absolutely nothing?!?) – but Kardashian may have actually earned her pay day in this case.

Seriously, just look at her…

Oksana Grigorieva Denies Leaking Mel Gibson Tape


Mel Gibson is a vile, sexist, racist, hate-filled individual.

That said, the fact that his ex-girlfriend and the mother of his child, Oksana Grigorieva, was secretly recording him on the phone begs another set of questions.

Did she provoke the Mel Gibson rant that leaked to tabloids over the weekend? Is she responsible for the leak? Should she be held in contempt of court for it?

Oksana Grigorieva says she never meant for the nasty Mel Gibson tape to go public and has “no idea” who leaked it. Uhhh, so since she recorded it, who did?

Mel and Oksana are currently battling over custody of their eight-month-old daughter, Lucia. She accuses him of hitting her and even of making a gun threat.

The Leak

Is Oksana Grigorieva trying to set Mel Gibson up?

Confronted by Pacific Coast News, Oksana did not have much to say about Mel, but insists she didn’t want the tapes out there and she thinks “it’s terrible.”

Mel’s side isn’t buying her story, and his lawyers have already filed a contempt motion against Grigorieva because they believe she did in fact leak the tapes.

It’s unclear what the consequences would be if they prove this, but attorneys for Gibson allege that Oksana is lying about him hitting her and is extorting him.

They say she recorded him in secret and wanted money for the tapes.

None of this changes that Mel’s true colors – those of a boorish, despicable human being – were exposed on the tape. But it makes you question her motives.

Roman Polanski Avoids Extradition to U.S.


Roman Polanski is a free man! Well, he has been for 30 years-plus now, despite facing a prison term in the United States for having sex with a 13-year-old girl.

The Oscar-winning director will remain free, though, thanks to Switzerland’s Federal Department of Justice cited a recent flaw in the U.S. extradition request.

The Swiss argue that Roman Polanski, who maintains a home in Switzerland, could reliably expect not to be arrested and deported to face sentencing in America.

Basically, since the U.S. knew of his frequent presence there over the last few years but never acted on it, the government is refusing to send him packing.

Roman Polanski remains free and in Europe.

Polanski, who was recently apprehended and also accused of sexually abusing Charlotte Lewis, has already been released from house arrest, authorities said.

The announcement was a dramatic development in a case that has lasted more than 30 years and appeared to be drawing to a conclusion earlier this year.

In 1978, Polanski, now a French citizen, fled the U.S. for the confines of Europe hours before he was to be sentenced for having unlawful sex with a minor.

He has not set foot in the U.S. since.

Daniel Tosh vs. Jon Stewart vs. Stephen Colbert: Who Would You Rather… Watch?


Jon Stewart makes the most headlines.

Stephen Colbert puts the most people and things On Notice.

But you might be surprised to learn than neither of these Comedy Central hosts bring in the most viewers. As of last week, that distinction officially belongs to Daniel Tosh, host of Tosh.0.

The show is as simple, and hilarious, as it gets. Tosh stands in front of a green screen and makes fun of clips/videos on the Internet. Such material has earned Tosh.0 an average of 2.4 million viewers, about 400,000 more than tune in for The Daily Show.

Comedy Central has already renewed the series for a third season, while it’s also producing a nationwide stand-up tour for Tosh.

So, you tell us: Who would you rather… watch?

The Wrong View: Talk Show Under Fire for HIV-Related Comments


This is a first: The View is facing controversy, and it’s NOT over something Elisabeth Hasselbeck said.

In fact, that conservative commentator – whose most recent example of opinionated nonsense involved a shot at Erin Andrews – has nothing to do with why GLADD is taking aim at this ABC talk show.

Instead, the organization has its sights set on Sherri Shepherd and D.L. Hughley, the June 22 guest host. On that date, the pair talked about the influx of HIV among African-Americans and blamed it on gay black men that were in the closet, aka “on the down low.”

“When you look at the prevalence of HIV in the African American community, it’s primarily young women who are getting it from men who are on the down low,” Hughley said.

Added Shepherd, offering no data to back up her assertion: “It’s so big in the black community with women because they’re having sex with men who have been having sex with men.”

The View Panel

In response, GLADD has taken out a full-page ad in Variety that reads:

“The Centers for Disease Control has publicly disproven this myth. And since June 22, thousands of people have written to ABC, asking that The View provide correct information to viewers. Unfortunately, those requests have been greeted with silence from both ABC and The View.”

Panelists on the show are known for expressing their opinions and have the right to speak their minds, of course. But when making grand claims such as the one above, it would nice if they relied on facts to support their statements.

DeAnna Pappas: Engaged to Stephen Stagliano, Planning Shotgun Wedding?


DeAnna Pappas, the former star of The Bachelorette, is not only dating Stephen Stagliano, the brother of a former contestant on the show, they are engaged.

Supposedly. And planning to wed. Like soon.

DeAnna and Stephen, whose brother Michael pined for Jillian Harris on her season of The Bachelorette, were fixed up by his twin and his girlfriend, Holly Durst.

Holly was let go by Matt Grant when she was a contestant on The Bachelor, and also dated Jesse Csincsak, who got engaged to DeAnna on her season finale.

We know, it’s really confusing.

The Bachelorette castoff Michael Stagliano, left, set his brother up with DeAnna Pappas. She was previously engaged to Jesse Csincsak, but that didn’t last long.

As for DeAnna Pappas and Stephen Stagliano’s wedding, it’s supposedly imminent, although specifics aren’t exactly available, courtesy of anonymous sources.

Take it with a grain of salt is all we’re saying.

Hopefully, hosting her Lifetime series Get Married, where she offers wedding advice and tips to brides-to-be, will help prepare DeAnna for her own big day.

Yes, DeAnna Pappas hosts a show about weddings, despite two failed attempts at marriage proposals on national TV … is this a great country or what?!

The lovely D is currently back home in Georgia where plans for the quickie wedding “is all they’re talking about.” Congratulations if this is in any way true!

Jon Bon Jovi: Living on a Prayer, Limping on a Stage


When the union went on strike, did Tommy give up?

When tips at the diner were sparse, did Gina throw in her apron?

No and no. Therefore, legendary rocker Jon Bon Jovi – inspired by the characters he created for the iconic single “Livin on a Prayer” – continued with his concert in New Jersey over the weekend, despite a serious leg injury sustained during the set.

Said a spokesperson afterward: “Jon Bon Jovi sustained a torn calf muscle. [He] made light of the injury and went on to close the show… The band ended the night together, thanking the capacity hometown crowd, and assisting Jon off the stage.”

The development won’t stop Bon Jovi from playing every stop of its tour this summer. Watch the injured lead singer in action below:

Happy Birthday, Free Britney!


For THG staff member Free Britney, it’s already been quite a year.

He welcomed his first child into the world in February, a baby boy who rivals Mason Dash and Hank Baskett IV for Cutest Newborn of 2010, but that hasn’t stopped him from pumping out content at a record rate.

Working on little sleep and in between diaper changes, FB has averaged 10 posts/day over the last week, all without complaint, all for the enjoyment of our loyal readers. He’s also still working on his original mission: to free Britney Spears from the conservatorship under which she suffers.

It’s a noble cause.

Ohh, Baby, Baby

It’s okay, Brit. It’s not too late to get your biggest supporter a gift.

As he turns 31 today, there’s something every user out there can do for this dedicated writer’s birthday: follow THG on Twitter!

Nothing would mean more to him.

Kourtney and Khloe Take Miami, Fight, Faint, Party


We actually have something positive to say about this week’s episode of Kourtney and Khloe Take Miami: it was baby talk free!

As for what else went down on the most scripted show on television? We forced an intern to watch and to file the following report…

On this week’s installment, Kourtney is obsessive about getting her body back into pre-baby shape. Also, Khloe is back in Miami from LA.

Kourtney goes overboard in her mission. She has a shoot for Life & Style, who we all know has an exclusive deal with the Kardashians.  She tells her stylist that she doesn’t want to be photoshopped because then it’s not realistic for other pregnant women to see. 

Besides the fact that everything is photoshopped these days, it’s also unrealistic to for the average mom to be very rich with access to nannies, free clothes, trainers, etc.

We all know what happens next. 

Kourt with Khloe

After all, when you are depriving yourself of food and overindulging in exercise you will lose your cool and possibly consciousness.  Kourtney snaps at Scott and Khloe and then ends up fainting. She needs to be taken away in an ambulance to get hydrated. 

By the way, how Patrick Bateman did Scott look in his outfit during that fight scene?  Moreover, when Kourtney had the IV pulled out, she claims she “can’t look at that stuff.”  I didn’t know Kourtney had any sort of gross out factor; after all she did pull her own baby out of her vagina on cable TV.

Meanwhile Khloe vowed that upon her return to Miami she would no longer be “whining Whitney” and would throw herself into being more helpful to Kourtney and Dash.  She takes over the shop, babysits Mason, and is Kourtney’s biggest cheerleader. 

She feels since the Dash ladies are working really hard, she should take them out for a night at Liv.  People chug vodka from bottles and get dirty in the bathrooms. Shocking.  Khloe claims she can’t party like that anymore now that she’s an old married lady.  Yes, you can Khlo, but I’m into this new, mature outlook.

Truthfully, I’m usually a bigger Kourtney fan, but I fully take Khloe’s side on all of this.  As a baby sister, I feel you! 

She was trying to be helpful and Kourtney was crapping all over her.  You know things are upside down when Scott and Khloe find themselves on the same side.  Scott even has wisdom to share.  And FYI Kourt, Khloe doesn’t have to tell you you look good because she’s your sister.  If anything, sisters are always the most brutally honest!
