Now everyone can understand the need to feel some pride in our appearance. Most of us accomplish this through exercise, grooming, diet, personal hygiene, and a thoughtfully selected wardrobe. Nadya attempted to boost her self esteem by parading around in her undies. If you've been paying attention to the story so far you know that Nadya has her own way of doing things.
2nd place was good enough to get Octomom a job offer to perform in what she describes as a 'gentleman's club'. Nadya makes it sound very up scale. Just to be clear these are the kind of gentlemen who like to stuff bills down ladies g stings, and may have a 'rabbit fetish'. Though flattered by the offer, and seriously considering it, she backed out after she realized the whole deal might not be so genteel. Nadya claims that when she noticed other topless exotic dancers giving clients lap dances, she was back out through the door like a shot! Just because they were gentlemen didn't mean that Nadya was going to think of herself as anything less than a lady.
So where are we after hearing Nadya's side off the story? Well she only admits to this after a former colleagues claims that they did a racy act together for 2 years (and performed at bachelor parties!). She makes a point of denying the worst of the allegations repeatedly through out her story - "I was merely an innocent girl who enjoyed taking her close of for nice men. Nothing kinky whatsoever!" She does however admit to being afraid that some photos from her experimental days might come to light. Perhaps this is why she's owning up now. We've also learned that Octomom has some talent as an amateur spin doctor: "I was crazy; but crazy interesting, not crazy scary!" She has been following Angelina Jolie's playbook! Oh yeah, and we know that Octomom sure like attention, and she'll take it however she can get it!
Speaking of rabbit fetishes, singer Andrea Corr first came to public attention playing a character called Sharon Rabbite (who thinks these names up?), in the film The Commitments. That was back in the early 90's. By 2000 she was voted the world's most beautiful woman, until ousted by Aishwarya Rai. In fairness to Ms Corr, Rai didn't get the title by vote, but was proclaimed such by Julia Roberts. Andrea also toured with her brother and sisters in the popular singing group The Corrs. The Corrs split up and Andrea went onto a solo singing career, releasing an album called Ten Feet Tall. At 5'1" we might assume that Ms Corr has some height issues.
The album wasn't really a chart buster. Andrea had deglammed her image, Perhaps she was tired of being seen as a pretty girl, and wanted to see if she could be taken seriously on her music alone. Questionable choice since the music industry is full of talented people who never become household names. Packaging counts!
So what has Ms Corr been doing with herself lately? Well Corr fans will be happy to know that Ms Corr has scored big time. Her boyfriend Brett Desmond proposed to her on Christmas of last year. He layed a $100 000+ diamond ring on her while they were vacationing in the Bahamas. Now Bret can well afford lavish gifts and Caribbean vacations because his dad is billionaire Dermot Desmond. So it looks like little Andrea has bagged big game. This guy should be able to keep her in tin whistles for life! 
Former Grey's Anatomy actor Isaiah Washington gets the boot!
Just because you're rich and famous one day doesn't mean that you can be down on the seat of your pants the next. Just ask Bernie Madoff. Or you could ask Isaiah Washginton - if you had the nerve the paparazzi in the video does. Only short months ago Isaiah was flying high as a cast member on TV's No 1 show - Young Doctors In Love. Actually it's called Grey's Anatomy, but all these medical shows follow the same basic soap opera format. They follow the same format because it's a successful format, & successful Grey's was. So what went wrong for Washington?
So some one's got to be to blame. Gray has a pretty clear idea of who's fault it is too. he blames original gangsta Joaquin. The director wasn't impressed with Phoenix's David Letterman appearance, for one thing. JP showed up to hype the film on Latenight looking like he'd spent the past few hours panhandling for loose change. While Letterman took repeated pot shots, Phoenix sat there looking bewildered and getting agitated. When Phoenix was asked what the film was about he replied "I dunno, I haven't seen it". He was unable to introduce a promotional clip that Latenight had set up.
Gray has some ideas about Pheonix's recent personality change too. Rumours are that this is some kind of elaborate Andy Kaufman style hoax. The fact that Phoenix's brother in law Casey Affleck is following him around with a camera seems to confirm this. Gray doesn't know what the whole Affleck angle is, but has called him to say that it's in very poor taste (After the returns on 2 Lover's, Gray should consider himself lucky that Casey took the call). Gray also reveals that Phoenix has a full recording studio in his house. "If it's a hoax then it's an elaborate one," Gray says, and then goes on to state "but even if it's not he still needs help".
Now Gray might be a little harsh in his judgements. Phoenix's colourful late night antics may have actually peaked interest in an other wise bland film. I can imagine some people going just to see if they can spot the exact moment when Phoenix started to crack. As for lack luster returns, no one has been interested in paying money to see Paltrow in some time. Even Gray's assessments of Phoenix's sanity might be out. Phoenix has probably had that recording studio for some time. Though rap is a recent development, his interest in music goes way back. So is Phoenix crazy, or crazy like a fox? The jury's still out on that, but I won't believe he's nuts until I hear complaints about his hygiene and body odor!

According to some unsubstantiated Internet gossip Ashley has had a coke problem for years. If the tape is legit that's a safe bet. You don't just wake up at 27 and decide to go drugging. Ashley is also said to be a some what naive girl, one with poor judgement and easily lead. She also lacks trustworthy close friends to keep her out of mischief.
Hollywood star Christian Slater has reportedly broken up with his girlfriend, Tamara Mellon.The actor began dating Mellon, president of designer shoe brand Jimmy Choo, while he was acting in a stage show in London's West End theatre in 2007.Gossip reporters previously reported that Mellon, who lives in London with her daughter, Minty, was planning to move to Los Angeles California to be closer to Slater. And last month rumors circulated suggesting the couple could be on the verge of marriage. But now the couple is have allegedly called off their relationship, after struggling to maintain their long-distance relationship. A source tells Britain's Daily Mail, "We all thought Tamara and Christian were made for each other, but the pressures of their respective careers meant they were spending too much time apart.""Tamara always puts her daughter first and with two businesses -- her shoe brand Jimmy Choo and American fashion label Halston -- to run as well, it's all been too difficult. Tamara speaks very fondly of Christian and I'm sure they will stay good friends."

Gwyneth Paltrow has set out on a bold new venture. The woman who named her child Apple and set up a web site called GOOP is now determined to revive the 70's. She is launching a new 70's based clothing line with French firm Zoetee. The line is too be called Zoetee Loves Gwyneth. Well at least some one does because frankly Paltrow is starting to get on everyone else's nerves! So the $ 64 000 dollar question is 'What's gotten into her'? Disco Fever maybe?
Now if this were anyone else you'd think that this was a sick joke. Since it's Gwynnie we can assume she is in earnest. Gwynnie takes herself far too seriously to have anything like a sense of humour! What's more she's even announced that Brit charity London Kid's Company is going to be the beneficiary of her dubious new enterprise. London Kid's specializes in helping high risk children. I hope they're not banking on Gwynnie to come through for them, because this idea sounds like a lead balloon looking for a place to crash!
I assume Gwyneth has heard about the economic situation. Then again maybe not. Common sense would tell you that people might not want to spend their money on tan polyester unisex leisure suits in times like these. Accessories like mood rings and pet rocks would be impossible to move! 
Then again this might be underestimating the market. There might actually be a market for this junk, apart from people who've 'lost a bet'. For one thing this gear would make nifty Halloween costumes. Also the stuff would come in handy at Austin Powers film festivals. If you want o get out of military service you might want to try prancing around in some of Gwynie's innovative new designs. You'll be section 8'd faster than you can say Klinger! Wearing the stuff will certainly get you talked about. People will probably ask you if you're with the circus!
The dude duds might even be an excellent exit tactic from difficult relationships. Just buy that certain some one a plaid poncho and platform shoes. They'll be gone out of your life quick enough. If they miss the point just ask them why they're not wearing the threads you got them the next time you see them. Try to look hurt. You won't have to pull that stunt more than twice!
It would be harsh to blame Gwyneth for this. Brad Pitt's exs tend to wind up worse off in the end. Look at Jennifer Aniston. I can only imagine what the boy does to them, but I shudder to think what Angelina Jolie will be like when he's done with her. I can still remember when she was sexy and dangerous! Now she's nervous and insecure. Still you can understand why she might've flipped a bit over Pitt. He's as handsome as David Soul on Starsky & Hutch! If some of the rumours are true that would make George Clooney Hutch!
1. I believe that a person can do anything they set their mind too. Fortunately this tendency was detected in childhood when my parents caught me halfway out of the window wearing a home made parachute. Mom was livid - "What made you try such a crazy thing? A normal kid would've tried it out on the cat first!" Then again it was her good table cloth! Booze & pills currently keep the delusions under control!
3. Though I write about celebrities I have never had a personal brush with celebrity. That is except for my tendency to keep crossing paths with former MASH cast members. Last MASH spotting, Mike Farrell @ Yonge & Bloor Starbucks! That was about 1 year ago so I'm about due. Next up on rotation - Gary Burghoff. I'm on the look out for you, Radar!
6. I sometimes wear cheap sun glasses, T's with trendy slogans, and ripped jeans in hopes of being mistaken for somebody famous. "Hey, don't I know you? You're that somebody right, who does the thing on TV?" In fact I once tricked Milla Jovovich into thinking I was a casual acquaintance, via the Internet. "I don't want to be rude, but where did I meet you?" "Oh you know, at the gallery! You were with your boyfriend. You probably don't remember 'cause you were seriously stoned. Loud and rowdy, too! I don't think the staff appreciated it when you described a featured exhibit as 'Fucking Awesome!' Poor Paul, I was so embarrassed for him!" The jig was up in a couple of days.

Watch as pretty Padma Lakshmi does things with a hamburger that are still illegal between consenting adults in some US states, even between man and wife (Though not between man and burger. No law can regulate that!). As you can see her mouth gets maximum clearance, as if her jaws had hinges instead of joints! If Bill Clinton ever sees this - and he's got a lot of time on his hands now that Hilary is out of the house - he's gonna have the twitches for weeks! Just look for the former president with a limp (not Gerald Ford)!
Geez lady, wear a bib! Somewhere out their Heather Mills is choking on her George Clooney flavoured PETA approved tofu (Now you know why the content warning is on the blog -that and the pic of Nicolette Sheridan'smud flaps several posts back!). Not exactly Ronald McDonald and the Hamburglar, but like they say 'sex sells'. Still the voice over could've used more sibilant sounds like 'succulent' and 'sinful', just in case anyone misses the point. So is Paddy just not getting enough since she parted ways with fatwahed ex husband Salman Rushdie? More to the point if that's what she does to a burger, how would she smoke a cigar? I will say this, if she ever wins an Oscar they're gonna have to censor the broadcast!

The general perception of bloggers are that we are pseudo journalists. Technically we might be called journalists, since blogging is a form of journaling - we'll grab at any semblance of credibility. So many of us have a passing interest in issues related to the field, such as "does the media have any true influence?" 
Greg Gutfeld, himself a pseudo journalist, is employed by FOX, the home of psuedo journalism. He hosts a show called Red Eye, which I have never watched. From descriptions it seems to be FOX's attempt at political humour a la John Stewart or Stephen Colbert, but without the intelligence and sophistication (There's no doubt Gutfeld is a comedian rather than a journalist, since he has borrowed most of comic Gilbert Gottleib's trade mark facial expressions - not that I mean to taint Mr Gottleib by association). Recently Gutfeld weighed into the controversial topic of the Mid East War on his Red Eye show. Particularly he was concerned with Canada's intention to withdraw from the conflict and take a year long hiatus. Gutfeld described this as a vacation, and therefore conduct unbecoming warriors. Now that's gotta be good for a few laughs.
Displaying the same finesse and sensitivity of Gen George Paton when he slapped a shell shocked solider while visiting a WW2 field hospital, Gutefld and his cohorts launched into an anti Canadian rant, full of school yard invective. For one thing he mentioned that Canada's top officer, Gen Andrew Leslie, had an odd name for a solider. Now Andrew is a pretty common name. I guess he was referring to the Leslie part. The inference must have been that guys named Leslie are pansies. Explaining the difference between family names and given names might have spoiled the crude joke. Pointing out that John Wayne's real name was Marion Morrison would've been totally out of place (incidentally John Wayne never served in the military. He was officially listed as 4F reject. Perhaps the American Govt felt that he made a more valuable contribution to morale by staying at home, dressing up, and wearing make up for the movies). Besides everyone who's ever seen a movie knows that action heroes are supposed to have he man names like Jack, Chuck, or Rambo. Purple Heart ex marine Lee Marvin being a notable exception.
So Gutfeld has unwittingly made a major stink. He's offended Canadians, embarrassed Americans (most of whom insist that FOX is not representative of their views. It seems to be a sort of guilty viewing pleasure for our neighbours to the south, like pro wrestling and reality TV), and put his employers on the defensive. He has managed to accomplish one thing. By creating a major international stink he has proven that the media does in fact make a difference - though in the words of another FOX minion, Marge Simpson "one person can make a difference, but most of the time they probably shouldn't".
