Rebels with & without causes
“improve your image, be seen with me” – lending cool to a cause is a two way street
A popular cause makes the best excuse.
Abstinence – Hollywood style
Sincerity, when you can fake that…
Charlize supports same sex marriage to the point where she herself will not wed. That kind of self sacrifice in the name of a cause is very noble (Though neither ‘self sacrifice’ nor ‘nobility’ are qualities that you immediately associate with celebrities. Well not to the same degree you’d associate ‘addiction’, or ‘superficial’ with them.). Since she’s been holding off for over 8 years she must be extremely committed. Either that or she’s in no particular rush.
Her empathy hasn’t encompassed the fact that not everyone might be so content to wait. If she really feels so strongly then it’s a shame (or a sham?) that she isn’t more actively and visibly involved in a cause that affects so many of her dear friends. Maybe a Hollywood hunger strike of top stars for same sex unions would light a fire under the issue? Since most of them hardly eat anyway, what could be the harm in it? If they’re really committed then it would seem to be the least that they could do (assuming that the least isn’t lip service, in other words next to nothing).
The trouble with sympathizers is that they don’t do anything but sympathize
“So did I score any points with that?” Charlize might well ask. “That’s just something celebs say when they don’t want to get married” we might well respond. Since they can pick up political correctness points in the process, it covers the angles. Of course with the recognition of same sex unions looming on the horizon, that could leave Charlize & co. holding out for peace on Earth. What about an end to world famine? You know how genuinely concerned celebs are with the welfare of the fellow men & women. In other words I assume that she’ll do it when she wants to and then nothing will stop her – ’till divorce do they part. In the mean time looking good is half the battle!
Now here’s a girl who’ll never hold out for an end to world hunger (in fact she’s a personal supporter of starvation!), & that’s why we love her!
So not mental
Megan Fox – more verbal diarrhea
By now you’ve heard that Brian Austin Green has to hide the sharp objects when his significant other Megan Fox gets riled up, ’cause she just isn’t sure what she’ll do. She also is a firm advocate of gun control, at least in her own case, because she just can’t be trusted. While she would never kill anybody, she admits that she’s not above wounding some one! So how far does the crazy go? Megan gives an indication in an interview with Rolling Stone. Here are some of the highlights:
As for her career life, the advance reviews on Jennifer’s Body are awful (By which I mean that the reviews say that the film is awful, not that the reviews themselves are badly written – though they very well might be. Critiquing the critics might prove and interesting form of turn about for chagrined actors.)! I guess this is where the comparisons with Angelina Jolie stop. Still the JB crew were kinder to her than certain members of the Transformers team. Just take a look at this video update!
Angelina Jolie obsolete?
Just think, Angelina Jolie used to be America’s sexiest bad girl. That was before she became an octomom and a mass of Brad Pitt related insecurities.
Avril Lavigne and Deryck Whibley Split
Reports are that Avril Lavigne has split from her husband Deryck Whibley. In fact she’s thrown him out of their $9.5 million, 12,00-square-foot estate in L.A.’s Bel Air. Lavigne is said to be filing divorce papers. No word on what caused the bust up, but their have been blind items indicating that Avril was cheating with a personal assistant. Also Avril hasn’t been a blast to live with since her career started to spiral downward and she began hitting the bottle with a vengeance.
Deryck helped Avril out with her latest album. So perhaps the pressures of working together played a role. Avril does have some trouble hanging onto writing partners. She split with Matrix and hooked up with Chantal Kreviazuk. Then she and Kreviazuk had a public falling out in which lawyers got involved (Chantal accused Ms. Lavinge of stealing from her, and claimed that Avril doesn’t write her own material. That lead to a letter from Avril’s attorney’s and a public retraction.). Now she and Whibley have gone their separate ways.
Burt Reynolds sent to the nuthouse
Burt Reynolds is the latest actor to succumb to the scourge of the entertainment industry: rehab. Big Burt made his way there via the usual route too: booze, pills, and a trip to the nut house. Seems that some red flags went up about the actor when he was found semi conscious and covered in blood. It seems that the actor had taken a fall while inebriated.
Enter state nuthouse, do not pass “go”, & no $200!
So his friends whisked him off to the nearest emergency ward. Only trouble was that eh was acting so oddly that emerge staff wanted him to see some mental health specialists. That lead to a trip to the local county nuthouse. Once there they refused to release him until he sought some professional help for his chemical dependencies. Since that was the price of release, he agreed. No world on how enthusiastically he agreed, but when you’re basically holding a gun to a person’s head, cooperation is about as much as you can reasonably expect. Good luck Burt!
revolting sex slave?
Speaking of captives with poor attitudes Eat.Sleep.Celebrity is reporting that Jesus Luz is tired of being Madonna’s sex slave. I guess that it wasn’t the great deal it seemed like in the beginning. The Material Girl doesn’t do relationships well, unless there are clearly defined roles of dominance and subservience. The knack of respecting others as equals still eludes her, and her bossiness continues to alienate anyone unfortunate enough to get sucked into her gravitational field. Oh well, for a while there he was as loyal as any of the other prisoners in Madge’s life! I wonder if he’ll get to keep the Kaballah accessories?
World’s tallest man stands 8ft 1in
His name is Sultan Kosen. He hails from Turkey. He’s 26. He stands about 8 ft 11 in. That makes him officially the world’s tallest man for 2009!

Megan Fox & Kelly Ripa catch up on old times
All that grovelling and fawning was truly disgusting! Ripa probably would’ve kissed Fox’s bum had it been accessible! There are no shortage of people who would love to kiss Fox’s arse, but at least their hearts would’ve been in it!
