Oh, dear: that daughter....

That jail cell actually looks pretty comfy. Give me a book or two, and I'd happily spend a few weeks there.

"Megan Fox and Brian Austin Green tied the knot late last week in Hawaii, a source tells Star exclusively! “They had a fairly large wedding, but there were clearly more security people than guests!” the insider tells Star. “They had so many security people that they had to call in local security because the hotel security alone wouldn’t do. It was very hush hush. Everyone was sworn to secrecy.” The location of the wedding — which took place Thursday or Friday — was the Four Seasons Hualalai at Historic Ka'upulehu on the big island of Hawaii. The hotel has many amenities like a golf course and a spa. The hotel is known for throwing big, A-list weddings. “The place is perfect for a Hollywood wedding,” says the source. “It’s very romantic and scenic. Megan and Brian had already been there for a few days. It seemed like a spur of the moment thing. I don’t think it had been planned long.” And the couple has been in no rush to leave. “Megan and Brian are still there at the hotel, relaxing,” says the source. “They’re now celebrating their honeymoon." Just days earlier Megan had lost her two-carat diamond engagement ring from Excalibur jewelry store in Beverly Hills in the Hawaiian sand after Brian re-proposed. After much searching the ring was not found. Megan and Brian have been dating since 2004. They got engaged in 2007 then broke it off in Feb. 2009. Shortly thereafter they rekindled their relationship. Their reps confirmed that they got engaged again on June 1. - from star magazine

Hahah. Mickey cracks me up and I sort of aggree with him. But then there's Elle, who does NOT crack me up and I don't agree with her at all. Elle MacPherson Uses Illegal Rhino Horn Treatment Australian supermodel Elle Macpherson freely admits to using the horn of endangered rhinoceroses medicinally, telling England's Sunday Times it "does the job." In an interview conducted via Twitter, the Times asked 47-year-old model nicknamed 'The Body,' "You're said to be a great fan of Chinese medicine. What does powdered rhino horn taste like?" Macpherson's response? "A little bit like crushed bone and fungus in a capsule. Does the job though." Pressed about the folkloric beauty treatment's efficacy, the 'Britain's Next Top Model' host simply stated, "Put it this way, works for me." Angered animal rights activists have begun responding already: "The Humane Society International condemns the poaching of rhinos, particularly for their use in beauty products," HSI's Nicola Beynon told the Toronto Sun. "Ms. Macpherson's actions are reprehensible." Sky News notes the Convention on Trade in Endangered Species regards the white rhinoceros as being as endangered as the bluefin tuna. No rhino species have been legally traded since 1977, and poaching stringently prohibited. "There is no excuse for using any endangered animal products. First and foremost, selling rhino products is illegal and in breach of CITES [Convention on International Trade in Endangered Species]," International Fund for Animal Welfare spokeswoman Erica Martin tells Sky. "Secondly, four out of five species of rhino are literally on the brink of extinction. Elle has been a successful businesswoman with a high public profile for decades, and people do listen to what she says." The New York Daily News writes: "Rhino horn is rumored to be able to detect poison, reduce fever and act as an aphrodisiac, but the environmental science website Mongabay.com says, 'Rhino horn has no curative properties.' " The News also notes Macpherson boycotted a restaurant in London one year ago because they served endangered bluefin tuna. Sky reports the International Fund for Animal Welfare will send an informational brochure to Macpherson to further educate her on "on the situation of the rhino and the use of alternative traditional medicines after her shocking comments."

Hope that "Overcrowding" won't have her in and out of jail in a 5-day span.

Wow. I'm interested to see that, at the moment, Jen and Ben come a close second to Tom and Katie! My thought is that Jennifer Garner is willing to put up with a heck of a lot of crap to remain Mrs. Affleck; I don't think she'll be going anywhere soon.

Finally!

Tiger Woods Is Going To Leave Elin Broke! Okay, not really.... But last month, gold diggers all over the world gathered together and formed a circle around a Elin Nordegren statue (made out of recycled fire extinguishers, old Ambien bottles and golf clubs) after reading that she was about to receive one of the biggest divorce settlements in the history of forever. The rumor was that Elin will soon collect almost $750 million from Tiger. The rumor was barfed up again earlier this week. However, TMZ is grabbing every aspiring gold digger's boner and trying to break it by saying Elin isn't getting $750 million. Their sources say that Tiger Woods' entire fortune isn't even worth $750 million, so it doesn't make sense that Elin would get that much. They wouldn't spit up the exact amount, but they did say that she's getting a lot more than she would have under the prenup. Tiger and Elin are expected to file for divorce any day now. Tiger is a selfish bastard. He should give everything to Elin, because she's earned it (not really, but gold diggers ride together 4 life). All he needs is a bed to lay his hos on (or a newspaper in an alley way in most cases) and a blank prescription pad! (from dlisted)

From celebitchy.com [u]Hypocritical Daryl Hannah denies plastic surgery, makes people look like ‘muppets’[/u] Last year, In Touch ran some before and after photos of Splash actress Daryl Hannah, 49, that showed how dramatically she’d altered her face. Even if you didn’t know who she was, the work she’s had done is painfully obvious in Hannah’s chipmunk cheeks, puffy lips, and cat-like eyes. Hannah is an activist with several causes she campaigns for, including awareness of sex trafficking, biodiversity, and ecological preservation. Although she’s obviously committed to saving the planet, she really comes across as hypocritical and sanctimonious in a new interview with The Daily Mail. She just sounds so damn snotty and self absorbed. She denies getting plastic surgery despite the evidence all over her face and she calls women who have face lifts “muppets.” Does not approve of nannies or having more than two biological children I gently mention reports that she is hoping to adopt a child. She rolls her eyes and explains that an off-the-cuff remark has been blown out of all proportion and she has no such plans. ‘All the same, I do believe that anyone with two children who wants more should adopt the rest, because there are so many out there who desperately need a home. As for those actresses who adopt babies, I only approve of the ones who aren’t employing someone else to raise them,’ she says with surprising tartness. Criticizes moms working as actressees ‘I know how long it takes to make a movie. If you look at their schedule, you can see how little time they spend at home. It comes down to priorities and I believe there are times when you have to put your personal life first.’ Denies plastic surgery Having put it off, I finally broach the subject of cosmetic surgery. Daryl emphatically denies it (although, later, it occurs to me that Botox isn’t strictly speaking cosmetic surgery and maybe I asked the wrong question). ‘There are so many people in LA who have had cosmetic surgery and they all look like Muppets,’ she says, firmly. ‘There was a picture taken a while ago of me emerging from the ocean, with my hair slicked back and no make-up on. I looked as though I had puffy, squinty eyes and the rumour went round I’d had work done; I lost jobs because of it and I thought about suing, but in the States you have to prove malicious intent. ‘I’ve got a little jowly, and sometimes I look in the mirror and think, “Oh my God”, but I am too much of a coward to go under a surgeon’s knife for something that wasn’t life-saving. I’ve had knee and elbow operations, and I’ve broken my back three times, riding and performing movie stunts, and that gives you an appreciation of your body. When I was three years old I had an accident that still influences my attitude.’ Daryl holds up her left hand to reveal one finger is missing two joints. ‘I lost the top of my finger playing on my grandma’s mobility stair lift. It was terrifying, but could have been so much worse – and it has bestowed on me an ability to be a more compassionate person.’ She goes on, and when she talks about her commitment to the environment you can tell she cares and tries to make a difference. Let’s give her the benefit of the doubt and assume she’s telling the truth about “surgery.” As in, maybe she hasn’t had a face lift. We’ve included some older photos of her. She’s had obvious lip plumping and facial injections that probably include fillers and botox. What’s more is that the photo she’s referring to where she’d just emerged from the ocean isn’t the one that In Touch used to illustrate their story on how altered she looked in April of last year. They used just a simple photo with her hair pulled back and perfectly dry, and quoted a plastic surgeon who said she’d had obvious Botox, fillers, and probably a face lift. Dr. Stephen T. Greenberg is quoted as saying “It looks like she [had] injections of fillers… in the face, causing that puffy appearance around her nasolabial folds, lines running from the side of the nose to the corners of the mouth. She also looks as though she had a face-lift, lip injections and Botox on her forehead and around her eyes.” There’s nothing wrong with getting some good work done when you get older. If a celebrity has obvious plastic surgery, they either should skirt around questions about it or own up to it. Daryl had bad work done, from a needle and/or a knife, and she’s either lying or splitting hairs by denying it. Plus she’s bashing other women who opt for surgical intervention. There’s just no excuse for that.

from celebitchy In Touch: Angelina Jolie is concerned that Brad might bone Robin Wright This is just an interesting little blurb from In Touch Weekly, of course. In Touch thinks that the newest drama in the Jolie-Pitt household is that Angelina is jealous of Robin Wright (formally Wright Penn). Brad and Robin are set to work with each other in Moneyball, which starts production any day now, if it hasn’t already. I have no idea who Robin plays in the film, if she’s Brad’s character’s wife…? Ooooh, Philip Seymour Hoffman is going to be in it too! F-ck me, I might watch this one. In Touch Weekly - In L.A. recently, Brad and Angie had a “huge fight in the car” over a sex scene in Brad’s new movie, Moneyball. She’s also not happy about how much time Brad is spending with his costar, Robin Wright. I could actually feel this scandal, couldn’t you? I’m not saying Brad and Robin are going to have an affair, I’m just saying this rumor has the potential to be very interesting. Robin is a real woman, she doesn’t take sh-t (in the long-run). She’s got her own life, her own interests, her own drama. And I could see how that kind of independence would interest Brad. Hm…

Zac Goldsmith ups the ante as his poker girl moves in By Katie Nicholl Last updated at 11:29 PM on 26th June 2010 Zac Goldsmith is living with Alice Rothschild, the heiress who is believed to be the real reason behind the breakdown of his 11-year marriage. The news comes just weeks after Zac and his former wife Sheherazade, who have three children – Uma, ten, Thyra, eight, and James, seven – were granted a ‘quickie divorce’. Sheherazade, 36, cited adultery as the reason for the split. Zac, newly elected Tory MP for Richmond, has been keeping his love life quiet but I can reveal that the handsome 35-year-old is now sharing his Richmond home with his sister-in-law – Zac’s brother Ben is married to Alice’s sister Kate. There was speculation about the nature of their friendship when The Mail on Sunday discovered Zac was secretly visiting Alice, 25, for poker sessions at her house two years ago while he was still married. At the time both said the relationship was platonic. ‘Zac and Alice are very much an item,’ says a family friend. ‘Ever since his relationship with Sheherazade broke down, Zac has been living in a flat in the grounds of his mother’s West London home in Richmond. ‘It’s so private no one has cottoned on to the fact that Alice is there all the time. She has a house in West London, but more often than not she’s with Zac. They have been very covert and make sure they aren’t seen together.’ Reports that surfaced this month suggesting the relationship was on the rocks after they attended a charity dinner, but did not sit together, have also been dismissed. ‘They were in Spain together last year and plan to return this summer for a holiday,’ I’m told. ‘At some point Zac knows he is going to have to go public with Alice.’ When he does it will no doubt be painful for his estranged wife. But another friend insisted: ‘It won’t be a surprise for her. She has had lots of time to prepare.’ Read more: http://www.dailymail.co.uk/tvshowbiz/artic...l#ixzz0s1hjA9RV

Beckhams not splitting (sify.com) Saturday, 26 June , 2010, 18:05 British soccer ace David Beckham and his wife Victoria are not splitting. The couple's representatives have denied the rumours Andrew Bloch, managing director of a public relation agency, claimed that the pair are separating soon, reported dailymail.co.uk. "I am hearing from a number of sources that Victoria and David Beckham are due to announce their separation in a few hours," Bloch posted on micro-blogging site Twitter. But the couple's publicists moved swiftly to deny the claims dismissing them as "nonsense". "The rumours are utter rubbish," said a representative of the footballer. Victoria's spokesperson also dismissed the rumours: "It is simply not true, there is no statement and no split, it's all just nonsense."

Ellen Degeneres has been extremely tight-lipped regarding the demise of her relationship with actress Anne Heche. It was fairly obvious after the breakup that Ellen was basically crushed- but she didn’t give much more information on it than that. But now that she has a new book deal to write her memoir, it looks like Ellen might just spill the beans on her three years with the formerly gay Anne. Ellen Degeneres is using a tell-all memoir to get the last laugh in her infamous split with Anne Heche. The Emmy-winning comic recently inked a publishing deal for a new book, and insiders say the gloves are coming off! “Ellen’s always taken the high road when it comes to divulging secrets about her years with Anne,” a publishing insider told The National Enquirer. “But now she’s ready to spill all the details.” The 52-year-old talk-show queen - who has been married to gorgeous actress Portia de Rossi for two years - had a three-year romance with Anne, 41, in the late 90s. The “Men in Trees” star dumped Ellen and married a cameraman. A few days after the split, Anne had a bizarre meltdown after taking the drug Ecstasy. She was found wandering outside Fresno, Calif. half-naked and shouting strange obscenities. “When they split, Ellen bit her tongue and really did not publicly comment on her years with Anne,” the source said. “But she’s finally prepared to tell the world how Anne used her as a Hollywood stepping stone. She’s got no problems talking about Anne’s bizarre behavior, her drug use, and the way she used men to make Ellen jealous. Ellen is using this book to settle an old score. Anne broke her heart.” [From National Enquirer, print edition, July 5, 2010] Heche has publicly commented on the breakup with Ellen. She once said she “changed her mind” about being gay and “closed that door.” I’m not sure that’s how it works, but if that was her thought process on the whole three-year relationship, then no wonder Ellen was so hurt. But do I believe she still dwells on it? Heck, no. She’s married to another woman, and they seem very happy. My guess is, Ellen is writing a memoir and there will be a chapter or two on Anne in the book- but I don’t think Ellen would dedicate an entire book to an ex-girlfriend. I don’t think her wife would like that too much. I know I wouldn’t.

go Kurt! The Fox runaway muscial hit “Glee” is huge right now, and most of the attention is on its big breakout stars, Lea Michele and Matthew Morrison. But Chris Colfer, who plays fabulous out-and-proud student Kurt Hummel, has quite a cult following, too. Not only can this kid sing, dance and act, but according to The Enquirer, Chris has spent most of his life prior to his “Glee” success caring for his younger sister who has severe epilepsy. He once promised his sister that if he became rich and famous, he would raise money and awareness to help find a cure for the disease. Teenage “Glee” star Chris Colfer spent much of his young life taking care of his severely epileptic younger sister before heading off to seek fame and fortune in Hollywood. In an exclusive Enquirer interview, Chris’ proud mom said he’s a “hero” for the sacrifices he’s made for his sister. “Chris was always instrumental in Hannah’s life - he still is,” Karyn Colfer says. Chris, 20, plays Beyonce-loving gay singer Kurt Hummel on the hit musical comedy. In real-life he was a three-time speech and debate champion at Clovis East High School in California’s San Joaquin Valley. But he spent much of his time caring for his little sister. “He was the center of her world, taking the time to do whatever she wanted to do,” says Karyn, 47. “Chris was absolutely selfless when it came to his sister - he gave up a great deal of his social life for her.” Hannah, now 14, was crushed when Chris decided to strike out on his own, says Karyn. But a few days before he left, he bought web cams so the two could teleconference through Skype when they started missing each other. “Chris is a great brother. He’s a hero to Hannah.” Karyn told the Enquirer that Hannah can have as many as 50 seizures an hour, and has not responded to several different courses of medication. Hannah recently underwent operations to implant nerve stimulators, and the family is hoping the procedure will improve her condition. Karyn adds: “You know, when Chris was growing up, people would ask him, ‘Are you going to become a doctor so you can find a cure for your sister?’” And he would say, ‘I’m going to grow up and become a famous actor so I can pay someone ELSE a ton of money to find a cure.’” True to his word, Chris recently donated a large sum of money to the nonprofit group CURE (Citizens United for Research in Epilepsy). [From the National Enquirer print version, July 5, 2010] So, while Lea Michele is out there allegedly racking up diva bitch points, Chris, who is every bit as talented, is using his new found fame for good. I think that alone warrants another Kurt-centered episode of Glee soon, don’t you? What a great kid.

Friday, June 25th 2010 from dlisted.com Crackhead In A Tree You know what Jeremy London's "kidnapped and forced to smoke crack" saga has been missing? Well, except for the truth. It's been missing a big ass fucking tree, and now we've finally got one! Right after Jeremy supposedly escaped from his kidnappers (HA!), he showed up to a Ramada Inn at 2 in the morning. The clerk on duty at the time told Radar that Jeremy was tweaked out of his skull and acting all sorts of wrong. Why wasn't this shit recorded in front of a live studio audience?! The clerk said (this really needs a laugh track), "I was at the front desk and suddenly I looked outside and there's this grown man clawing his way up one of the trees. He kept trying to shimmy his way up but he couldn't do it." Jeremy finally gave up and he went into the lobby and told the clerk, "Do you know who I am? I'm Jeremy London. I need a room." There's a question on the SATs that asks, "Do You Know Who I Am?" with a picture of Jeremy London next to it. The correct answer is "NO." So obviously, Jeremy didn't do too well on his SATs.

Me too. And my gay pals and me (straight woman) definitely also check out women for what they're wearing, too - like, mmm, cute jeans, or Her hairstyle would look better if it were 2 or 3 inches shorter...

The boards been a little quiet lately. I figured we could all use a doozy
