Serendipity

So I wonder if Katie will get that sparkle back in her eyes now? She's been dead-eyed for years. I hope her career gets a big boost, just like Nicole's after she divorced Tom, although Katie's best role was that of adoring, loving wife to Tom Cruise. Hopefully he'll stay on his own for awhile and not try to make the public think he's in love again.

That's who! I couldn't place the name, but yeah, you hit it - Stockard Channing. I don't mean to bring on the apocalypse, but I've always thought there was a resemblance between Snooki and Elizabeth Taylor:

Could it be set in rose gold? And I'm loathe to say it, but I rather like the ring too.

Oh yeah, there just happened to be someone with a flash camera in the museum to take that oh-so-candid photo. They are so sly about feeding the paps info on where they'll be for those family photo-ops.

If she hadn't posed on the red carpet with her leg out (and truthfully, the pose wasn't that bad, it was her self-aware ego that went along with it that I found more of a turnoff), then yeah, I might have thought her present schtick was tongue in cheek, but you're right, she just doesn't seem to have that sense of humor to pull it off. Tyler, I disagree about the screenwriter, Jim Rash. He was hilarious. I'd rather go to an after party with him than Angelina. No one there had to guess if he was joking or not - it was obvious and I didn't think it was disrespectful. It was just spontaneous and in good fun. And if she's pissed about it, then she should apply the "fuck you if you can't take a joke!" mantra.

He was filming that movie where I live. Lots of local surfers were extras in it. The surfing incident was at a big wave area called "Mavericks" and is definitely not for beginners. By all accounts from the local surfers there and the newspapers, he was held under for two waves but not seriously injured. He was taken to Stanford Medical Center and he was released that day. Still, he was in the water every day for his role, and by all accounts (his), enjoyed the new experience. He was in good shape and very friendly with everyone. Glad he's getting treatment for his problem, no matter what triggered it.

AmFAR? Lindsay looks more like she's going to an AARP event. Looking fabulous if she were 50, but at 25, looking used up.

Yes, it still pops up on Safari.

But I thought you don't get a high from methadone?? The only people that use methadone are the ones addicted to heroin, so you take methadone instead to get the fix without getting the high.... It's suppose to be used to wean people off of heroin.... But if Demi is on methadone, it means she has an opiate addiction (heroin, Oxy, etc.). Or am I getting my drugs mixed up?? It is indeed used to treat narcotic addiction, but methadone is also prescribed for pain relief and is cheaper than morphine. The "high" is more of a "down" and is long lasting. The cases I'm aware of have been people who have gone to several different doctors, and end up with several prescriptions. Remember the ethical pals of Anna Nicole Smith and Michael Jackson? They' prescribe anything to their famous clients. I was surprised when I learned how widespread the abuse of methadone is.

Yeah, there are a lot of straight men in fashion She doesn't look attractive in those ads- not selling to me at all (and skeletal CAN sell fashion!) I can't imagine anyone wanting to sleep with her...I know there are freaks around though ;-) Apparently no amount of photo retouching can erase the damage drugs and alcohol have done to her young face. Remember when Don Johnson used to be cute? He had that same "alcohol face lift" and was never really attractive after that. Something just deadens their looks. If Lifetime goes forward with their intended biopic on Elizabeth Taylor, and their only 2 choices are Megan Fox and Lindsay, I'd rather see Lindsay do it. She was (and maybe still could be) a talented actress and she's had the excesses and negative public backlash that Liz had for her affairs, so her performance might be more raw. Meh. I don't think Lifetime should do it at all.

The LA City Attorney is likely less concerned with patient/doctor privilege than he is about a lawsuit against the city. Patient/doctor privilege is between the patient and the doctor, not the friend of the patient and the 911 operator. For the guess on prescription drugs she's taking, I'm going to toss methadone into the ring. Doctors seem to dole that stuff out like Halloween candy, and savvy "patients" go to different docs to get their prescriptions. In my county, more people OD from prescribed methadone than street drugs.

Move over, I'm hopping on the Rhianna Bugs Me train too. And I must admit I'm rather perturbed she's wearing a John Lennon t-shirt. I challenge her to sing one of his songs from beginning to end. She should have left off the "T" and "H" and just had "Ug" tattooed on herself instead.

I've got it via Safari, but not with Firefox:

To me, clearly a few of them were brought back only for their personality, not talent So true! Maybe it's the familiarity of the designers, but I'm enjoying this season. However, they do seem to be knocking off the ladies "of a certain age" one by one.

I'm kind of surprised - they did seem like a solid couple. She's the one filing, too.

I have both saved on TiVo, hoping to watch tonight I didn't even know it had started and caught the preview and this week's episode in far-too-much-TV-time on Thursday. I didn't know the format and was surprised with the total recasting of the hostess, judges and mentor, but really like the revamp - the show needed it. Mizrahi has relevant critiques and is fun to listen to. The new mentor, Joanna Coles, is really like a female Tim Gunn in a Tabatha Coffey sort of way (but Tim rules supreme!). The Heidi replacement has THE MOST FROZEN FOREHEAD I've seen! She looks like a marionette - only her mouth moves when she talks.

Her head looks like it was added on as an afterthought. She's too old to still be doing nothing - no job, no volunteer work, no contribution to society other than to flash her hoo ha and be a party girl.

Pretty pics. I know cover shots are done months in advance, so I'm wonder if they photoshopped Demi's ring off her finger? (Along with everything else that was tweaked to perfection, although the dead look in Demi's eyes - especially compared with Amanda's expressions - just can't be hidden.)

That noise you hear in the background is the collective clattering of scam artists, burglars and disgruntled 99%-ers as they prepare to swoop in on Petra and relieve her of some of that wealth which is obscuring her "real" personality.

Well, if he wasn't shy about sharing what he knew, then somebody must have heard it. And truthfully, unless he was there, he only knows what someone told him.

I can't help but think of her bare bum on the leather motorcycle seat and a little part of me just goes, "ewwwww."

This would be a pretty difficult cold case to prove unless someone confesses, and even then I doubt it would go to a trial. But if the book is making claims that something untoward occurred to cause the demise of Natalie Wood, then Sheriff Lee Baca has an ethical duty to investigate that (and that could be done without talking to the press, but apparently his mind doesn't work that way). Now, if only Sheriff Baca would find it ethical to keep Lindsey Lohan in the clink...

Compassion and privacy does not = AP Press releases and Twitter feeds!

Very low profile. I see photos of Katie a lot, but can't recall the last time I saw one with her and Tom. I'm sure whatever announcements pop up, if any, will be well orchestrated and rehearsed.
