Ann Curry Lands First Interview with Mother of Octuplets

How did she do it? How did Ann Curry of NBC’s Today show beat out Oprah, Diane Sawyer, Katie Couric, and Barbara Walters to land the interview of the year? Talk about a “get.” According to Nadya Suleman’s publicist (yes, she already has a publicist and by the end of the month I’m sure she’ll also have a TV agent, a book agent, and an entire entourage of handlers) the 33-year-old mother of eight newborns sat down with Curry this morning. Reports say that Suleman left a Southern California hospital this morning and headed for her first interview with the … Continue reading

Playing the Blame Game: Jessica Simpson’s Parents and Grandmother of Octuplets

Jessica Simpson’s parents say they know who’s responsible for making their daughter “look” fat: Her stylist. According to reports, the singer’s parents are “extremely upset” about the vicious skewering their precious daughter has endured since unflattering shots taken of her at a recent concert surfaced. Jessica’s dad Joe has nothing but praise for the way his daughter has handled the fat jokes hurled in her direction. Conversely, he has nothing but ire for Jessica’s stylist. According to Joe Simpson, Jessica’s alleged “weight gain” has more to do with bad styling and poor photography than a purported relationship with Ronald McDonald. … Continue reading

Do You Think Jessica Simpson is Fat?

A slew of tabloids do and they are milking photos of the bigger blonde songstress for all they’re worth. And so it begins… another round of who’s fat in Hollywood. Jessica Simpson has been the talk of the World Wide Web since showing up to a concert gig wearing high-waisted jeans, a tank top, and the most hideous looking double-decker leopard print belt I’ve ever seen in my life. Forget about Simpson’s weight gain people… let’s talk about her choice in clothing! All week long the tabloids have been poking fun at the “porkier” version of the once rail-thin singer … Continue reading

Celeb Updates: Tori Wants Work and Jessica Wants to Marry

Now that Jennie Garth has signed up to return to her old stomping grounds, fellow “Beverly Hills, 90210” original cast member Tori Spelling is vigorously lobbying to return to the zip code that made her famous as well. According to reports, Spelling is currently in heated negotiations with producers of the CW’s new “Beverly Hills, 90210.” Insiders say the 35-year-old actress wants desperately to reprise her role as Donna Martin, especially now that her pal Garth has sealed the deal to guest star as a guidance counselor on the new show. Yesterday Spelling told PEOPLE magazine: “Jennie is already on … Continue reading

Celebrity REAL or RUMOR: Jessica on the Mend, Love’s Baby Bump and NKOTB Ready to Rock NYC

JESSICA ON THE MEND Just in case you care… singer Jessica Simpson is out of the hospital. The former reality TV star was reportedly taken to the hospital late Friday after suffering a fever (yes, a fever). According to reports, the 27-year-old actress was taken to Cedars-Sinai Medical Center and was later diagnosed with a kidney infection. In Touch magazine is reporting that the singer didn’t want to take any chances with her health since she just returned from Iraq where she performed for the troops. (Wonder if she thought she caught a foreign illness from American soldiers?) And Simpson … Continue reading

Jessica Simpson–Dallas Cowboys’ Public Enemy No. 1 (STILL)

And here I thought Brett Favre was Dallas’ No. 1 enemy. If you read my previous blog then you know that ex-Newlywed Jessica Simpson is not exactly a welcome addition to Tony Romo’s life as far as Dallas Cowboy football fans are concerned. And now it appears she’s not very popular with Romo’s teammates either… or is she? Yesterday, Dallas’ most outspoken player Terrell Owens provided reporters with his own take on Sunday’s Romo/Simpson debacle. (The Cowboys lost 10-6 to the Philadelphia Eagles and the Pro-Bowler had what was statistically the worst game of his career, all while his buxom … Continue reading

Jessica Simpson—Tony Romo’s BAD Luck Charm

I live in Packer Country—-home of pro football’s Green Bay Packers and probably the only place in the world where residents were watching yesterday’s Dallas vs. Philadelphia game as intensely as Cowboy and Eagle fans. The Packers have an unbelievable 12-2 record and fans here are hoping the road to the Super Bowl goes through Lambeau Field. Dallas, whose record is as stellar as Green Bay’s, cracked yesterday and lost to the Eagles. Which means the Packers could secure home field advantage during the playoffs and Dallas could be headed to the Frozen Tundra for a game that could break … Continue reading

Jessica Simpson On The Road To Motherhood?

Just file this one under the heading: “You-Got-To-Be-Kidding-Me!” or “Stranger Things Have Happened.” A new report out maintains that singer turned actress Jessica Simpson is planning to have a baby with her gay hairdresser! Listen, I know this ranks up there with other wacky Hollywood rumors, and ordinarily I would completely dismiss it as rumor. However, numerous NBC affiliates throughout the country are running the story. Does that make it automatically legit? Hardly. But, hey, if the mainstream media is going to run with it so will I. So, here are the details on the pregnancy rumors: The 27-year-old single … Continue reading

John and Jen Split and Ellen and Portia Wed

Did anyone seriously think they’d last longer than six months? If you predicted that John Mayer and Jennifer Aniston’s romance would fizzle out after four months then buy yourself a lottery ticket because you were exactly right. The high profile pair never officially confirmed they were dating, but pictures don’t lie. The couple was snapped cuddling, canoodling, and cavorting from Miami to Los Angeles (and just about everywhere in between as Aniston joined Mayer on his cross country concert tour). Personally, I am not the least bit surprised that Jen and John split. What does shock me is the fact … Continue reading

Pop Culture Pot Potpourri: Cheers and Jeers

CHEERS Three cheers (if the rumors are true) for Kelly Osbourne, who has been the center of recent wedding buzz. Reports say the 23-year-old daughter of Ozzy Osbourne will wed her boyfriend Luke Worrell some time next year. Paps shot the former pop star turned reality TV star sporting a ring on her engagement finger, though she has yet to confirm reports of a pending union. She has, however, made no secret of her love for her 18-year-old model boyfriend. Last month, Osbourne told reporters of Worrell, “We get on so well together. I really do love him. Every time … Continue reading
