Celebrity Quotes- George Clooney Talks About Rosanne Barr
By Cara | May 9, 2008
It sounds like the start of a terrible joke, but according to George Clooney he is a Rosanne fan.
“I worked on her first series, and when I met her she said, ‘You’re really good looking, why don’t you take me out behind the stage and make me stink.’ She was unbelievably kind to me at a time when no one was.”
I just threw up a little.

Lindsay Lohan Fired
By Karen | May 9, 2008
Lindsay Lohan was going to play Nancy Pitman in The Manson Girls, but she got the chop. Nikki Finke squeals that no, name actresses would make nice and star with Lohan.
The Manson film was supposed to star production in July, so she hit the road so they can get some names to star. But don’t worry about ol’ Cokey McSpreadsalot. She lands on her feet, good thing her back must get awfully tired. Lohan scored a guest role in the TV show Ugly Betty.
Lilo will be in another role in a fluff film too. She is being type cast as a liar in her new film Labor Pains. Lohan pretends to be pregnant to avoid being fired. Why do producers like Rick Schwartz hire her? She has well documented problems with drugs, alcohol and picking up the stray mink coat that is not hers. Hang on isn’t that strangely like Jennifer Aniston’s movie Picture Perfect?

Amy Winehouse Stops Traffic…Not in a Sexy Way
By Cara | May 9, 2008
The signer that makes Britney Spears look like Betty Rubble is taking the freak show to the highways of London.
During a traffic jam Amy Winehouse got out of her car, smoked a cigarette, sunbathed her bloated belly, ran around the road and then gave the camera men handys. (Well the handy bit was just a guess by me, but you get the drift.) She ran from car to car asking for a lighter and if anyone had a cigarette she could have.
“At one point she pulled up her purple vest to bare her midriff as she did a spot of sun baking while leaning on the bonnet of a car. In a troubling sign, the 24-year-old’s arms were covered in fresh scratches and cigarette burns, thought to be the result of self-harming.”
I feel bad staring, being that I haven’t paid for a ticket.
What Others Said:
- The Blemish-“If this lunatic ever gets near my car, I’d roll up my windows, lock my doors and gun it. Much like I do with those homeless people standing on the center divide begging for change, but with a lot more hysterical screaming.”
- Celebrity Smack-“I think I would have sh*t myself if Amy Winehouse knocked on my window. Phooey, London has all the fun.. Who knew traffic jams could be so exciting!”

May 9th, 2008 - Happy Birthday Rosario Dawson!
By Allie | May 9, 2008
Rosario Dawson (born May 9, 1979) is an American actress and singer, perhaps best known for her roles in the films Sin City, He Got Game, Rent and most recently as a lead character in Quentin Tarantino’s Death Proof.
She’s 29!
Dawson was born in New York City, the daughter of Isabel, a Bronx-born professional vocalist, and Greg Dawson, a construction worker.
The two are now divorced. Dawson’s mother is of Puerto Rican and Afro-Cuban descent and her father is of Irish and Native American ancestry.
Dawson grew up on Manhattan’s Lower East Side and has a brother named Clay. She and her family squatted in an abandoned building during most of her childhood. While attending school, she had aspirations of becoming a marine biologist.
Although showing no interest in acting as a child, Rosario was discovered on her front porch step by photographer Larry Clark and Harmony Korine, where Harmony lauded her with praise as being perfect for a part he had written in his screenplay that would become the 1995 controversial films Kids. Since then Dawson’s films have varied; ranging from independent films, to highly successful big budget blockbusters, and large scale box office bombs.
Among her successes are He Got Game, opposite professional basketball player Ray Allen, and Men in Black II, which saw her sharing the screen with Will Smith and Tommy Lee Jones; among her failures are The Adventures of Pluto Nash (which was nominated for six Golden Raspberry Awards) and the live-action film adaptation of Josie and the Pussycats.
Personal Life:
Dawson dated former Sex and the City star Jason Lewis for two years. They lived together in Los Angeles until they separated in November 2006. She has also been rumored to have dated Dawson’s Creek star Joshua Jackson.
For her 27th birthday party, she asked Guns N’ Roses to perform. At the event, Axl Rose and Tommy Hilfiger got into a physical altercation which garnered some press attention.
Other May 9th Birthdays:
Albert Finney-Actor -72
Glenda Jackson-Actress -72
Candice Bergen-Actress -62
Billy Joel-Singer -59
Alley Mills-Actress -57
John Corbett-Actor -47
David Gahan-Singer/Depeche Mode -46
Tamia-Singer -33

Mischa Barton makes another poor choice
By MrsJ | May 9, 2008
Let’s cut to the chase. When it comes to good choices, Mischa Barton does not make many.
Don’t believe me? Let’s just tally up the list of faux pas, shall we?
- Starred in the O.C. Which we all know was the poor man’s Beverley Hills 90210
- Allowed Brandon Davis close proximity to her lady parts
- Did some drink and driving
- Allowed Brandon to play with the fun bags
- Got huffy when a photographer decided to take photos of her ass, even after he warned her he was going to do it
- Brandon Davis.
And, now, we add this ensemble to the list.
Those pants have pleats and are so unfortunately cut that I honestly believe that Mischa is packing meat. Where did she get these? A Golden Girls‘ Wardrobe Sale?
As for that camisole, Mischa, Andrea Zuckerman called and she wants her bathing suit back so that she can seduce Brandon.

Mischa Barton is Pissed Off!
By Allie | May 8, 2008
Mischa Barton saw this photo and she’s letting you know — she’s pissed off!
Mischa Barton is angry and fighting back. After coming under intense scrutiny and ridicule for having cellulite, the 22-year-old actress has come to OK! to discuss Hollywood body image issues, the pressure to be thin and how she handles all the nasty talk. “I like my curves,” the former O.C. star, who’s currently dating rocker Taylor Locke, says. “My boyfriend loves them. So whatever works!”
Do you ever look at magazine pictures of yourself?
No, not usually really. I don’t really use the internet and I never buy tabloids. I’m not much an Internet person, I’m pretty backwards in my technology skills to be honest. So no, I tend to stay away from that kind of stuff. I think it’s kind of bad for you to harp over it.
Are you self-conscious about your body?
No, I’m not self conscious about my body. I eat really healthy, I work out. Everybody has things that they are conscious of that they don’t like, but any girl – I talk about this with my girlfriends all the time. We work out and we eat healthy and we do what we do, I feel very comfortable. I come from a European family that’s always very comfortable with their bodies. You are what you are as a woman.
So you’re not too worried about weight?
I mean you could get worried about it, but then I think you’d have a whole plethora of problems. What I do as an actress is make films and work. There’s been lots of nasty gossip that’s been written about me over the years. If I were to get upset about it and cry over every single thing than I’d be the most depressed person ever. And trust me there have been some low points in my life where I get really depressed about it, but in general I find it’s smarter to not get depressed about it and not to feed into it.
Every woman has cellulite. How do you feel about the photos that highlighted yours?
Every woman does have cellulite! I just feel like the photographers try to get the most unflattering shots. They know they are worth more money and even the photographer that took those shots. I went up to him and said, “Do you understand that what you’re doing is so low and that you cause trouble and make people upset? I haven’t had a vacation in forever and you’re ruining that for me. And this is why actresses can’t relax and live normal lives.” And he was like, “Oh well. I’m going to sell it for as much money as I can get.” That kind of attitude about not giving actors or women or anyone their personal privacy is what makes people turn strange. I’ve never claimed to have a perfect body, but it is what it is.
What would you like to say to all the people that try to put you down?
I don’t care if people try to put me down. I just think it’s so sad that that’s what people spend their time doing. It might sound crazy, but I’m a really nice person. Out of my friends, I’m a very sensitive person. I’m the one everyone comes to for advice and I’m always dispensing advice so it’s funny when I get depressed, I need other people’s advice to make me happier. So if people put you down, it is what it is. I think its lame. I’m like, “Whatever, if that’s the way you want to be, but I don’t think it’s cool.” You have to try to let it roll off your shoulder. It doesn’t always. It definitely affects me. I’m not immune. It just bums me out. I think its lame.

Ryan Seacrest Steals Job from Larry King
By Karen | May 8, 2008
Ryan Seacrest maybe trying to squeeze yet another job into his already packed schedule in 2009. Seacrest has filled in numerous times for Larry King over the years and just may make it permanent. A CNN source tells that Seacrest is in “serious negotiations” to take over “Larry King Live”. Hey, he saw Larry got to make out with Marlon Brando on air and he wants some of that action too.
“He’s the classic generalist,” King told the Times. “The only thing I don’t know, and I’ve gotten to know him pretty well, is how versed he is in politics, world affairs. Does he read the paper? Is he interested in Iraq? Because if he is, he’s going to be very good.”
Yeah Larry King is such a walking font of knowledge. Katie Couric is interested too and who do you think has the creds to host this show the anchor woman or the guy who says “You are safe” to teenage wannabes? Of course this could be his way of gracefully leaving American Idol before he gets the boot. I hear they are overhauling AI for next year. So that means new set and new host. Besides that King won’t leave until he dies on air clutching a microphone.

American Idol- Jason Castro Out
By Cara | May 8, 2008
After Jason Castro sang some Bob Marley and what he could remember of Mr. Tambourine Man I knew he was done. The judges weren’t kind to the dread locked kid.
After David Cook and David Archuleta took the top two spots, no surprise there, Syesha and Jason were the last two standing. Castro clearly knew what was coming. Mercado is scrappy and pulled the “this is my dream” speech and even added the political pull at “having either the first female president or black president” was all just so “overwhelming.”
I have no idea what Obama and Clinton have to do with her American Idol adventure. Maybe they have tea parties after the show. Regardless of the BFF status Castro seemed happy to be going home. If he wanted to score another week he should have done something hot….like shave his head or get knocked up.

Katherine Heigl Quitting Grey’s Anatomy
By Karen | May 8, 2008
Katherine Heigl is thinking of splitting from Grey’s Anatomy. Oh girl, think about that twice. Remember all the celebs that have jumped ship and lived to regret it.
The 29 year old actress is getting some press for her comedies Knocked Up and 27 Dresses and it seems to be going straight to her head. Don’t worry Grey fans she may be locked into her contract she negotiated last year. So poor TR Knight will have to be brave and make out with her at least one more time. Her character Dr. Isobel Stevens has kinda lost her appeal anyway. Is it me or is she really whiny lately.
“She’s working really long hours and is ready to move on. She’s a smart one. She saw what can happen with someone like Jennifer Aniston, who was crazy successful on TV, but can’t seem to carry a film, and she tested the waters early.”
Heigl will next be seen in a romantic comedy called The Ugly Truth with hunky Gerard Butler. Better her hanging all over him than sweet TR Knight. I always felt it was odd and disturbing almost incestuous match. Does it make anyone but me wonder if her complaining and bitching is getting her pushed out or if she really wants to leave a hit show? Now she can have more time to design those spiffy scrubs she pimps.
