I have a Hulk Hogan story.  You won’t be impressed.  He once bumped into my mother at O’Hare airport while he was eating a chili dog.  The end.

A more impressive story?  According to a new Rolling Stone article, Hulk Hogan totally relates to spousicide.  It all started when Hulk’s wife Linda started doing “some shaggy-haired pool boy 30 years her junior.”   The demise of his marriage gave Hogan a whole new level of sympathy for O.J.:  “I could have turned everything into a crime scene, like OJ, cutting everybody’s throat.  You live half a mile from the 20,000-square-foot home you can’t go to anymore, you’re driving through downtown Clearwater and see a 19-year-old boy driving your Escalade, and you know that a 19-year-old boy is sleeping in your bed, with your wife … I totally understand OJ. I get it.”

I’ve been through a divorce and a few ugly break-ups but I’ve never wanted to open somebody’s neck over it.  As a matter of fact, with the exception of Mischa Barton, I’ve never wanted anyone dead.  And I don’t really even want Mischa dead…maimed or retired perhaps, but not dead.

Anyway, note to LAPD:  If Linda Hogan ends up in a pool of blood and there is chili dog residue at the scene, you know who to call.

Woot woot!!!!

Governor David Paterson plans to introduce a bill on Thursday that would legalize gay marriage in the state of New York.

We’re just going to keep at this shit until all the old people who don’t seem to understand that every life should be treated equal finally die off.

Can’t be stopped! Won’t be stopped! This shit is a BULLDOZER running on a giant engine called Proposition 8. You should have left well enough alone, haters.

You can read more details about the bill, and the issues it expects to face in the state legislature, here.

Blagojevich Corruption Probe

This is RIDICULOUS. Someone at NBC should be fired for this shit. After Illinois governor Rod Blagojevich basically shit all over the Constitution by offering to sell Barack Obama’s Senate seat to the highest bidder, NBC wants to make him a TV star. They want him to be on their ellipses-tastic summer juggernaut I’m a Celebrity … Get Me Out of Here!

“Rod Blagojevich will be a participant on the show pending the court’s approval,” NBC said.

In the series, 10 celebrities of various backgrounds compete in challenges to raise money for their favorite charities.

The network has been looking for household names for its version of the U.K. hit, which launches June 1. NBC is taking the unusual step of airing the show four nights a week at 8 p.m. for nearly a month, and a successful launch could fuel the network’s entire summer schedule.

According to the Chicago Tribune, Blagojevich’s attorney told a federal judge Tuesday that he will file a request to loosen his client’s travel restrictions to participate in the show, which will be shot in Costa Rica.

In fairness to Rod, he was indicted on April 1, he hasn’t yet been sentenced, and he’s plead not guilty. But still. WE ALL KNOW HE DID IT. It’s not like I’d be watching this shitshow anyway, but I think NBC should be ashamed of themselves for including him. I mean, it’s one thing to reward a pop star for running around LA with her labia hanging out, but this dude was a high-ranking elected government official who completely betrayed the trust of an entire nation. There should be no more opportunities for him, on TV or elsewhere.

Hey, remember on Sunday, when Jamie Foxx went off all batshit crazy about Miley Cyrus, the one who “gotta get a gum transplant” and “do some heroin” and “put some crack your pipe”? As of Tuesday afternoon, he had yet to issue an apology, and word on the street was that Papa Cyrus was PISSED. “He thinks Jamie was out of line and didn’t find any humor in it,” said a source. “He doesn’t understand why he would do that to Miley especially since he has teenage daughter himself … Billy Ray isn’t going to say anything publicly because he doesn’t want to this to escalate.”

The actor and comedian has been taking a lot of heat lately for his comments about the 16-year-old, which began when a random caller phoned into his radio show to say that he thought Miley was a bitch.

But when Foxx went on Jay Leno’s show Tuesday night, Leno pushed the issue, and Foxx finally apologized.

“Did you say something inappropriate?” Jay Leno innocently queried of the Oscar winner on Tuesday’s Tonight Show.

“Yeah,” Foxx admitted, taking a few breaths before launching into a full-blown apology.

“I so apologize to [Cyrus], and this is sincere,” he began. “I am a comedian, and you guys know that whatever I say, I don’t mean any of it. [Big laugh from the audience]. And sometimes, as comedians, as we do, we go a little bit too far.

“I have a radio show…We’re really the black Howard Stern. We go at everybody. There was a situation with Miley Cyrus, and I just want to say, I apologize for what I said. I didn’t mean it maliciously. You know I’m a comedian. You know my heart,” he added, turning to Leno.

Then, looking at the camera, “Miley, I apologize, so I’ll call you. I got a daughter too, so I completely understand.”

What do we think, guys? Apology accepted or no?

The formerly estranged couple were looking awfully close at the NYC premiere of Drew’s latest film, Grey Gardens — based on the 1975 cult classic — and certainly making no secret of their romance.

The movie’s set mostly in the ’30s and ’40s, which is probably why Drew chose this outfit. You can check out clips from the film here. Personally, I think Drew’s performance looks to be pretty darn horrible, and she was kind of tragically miscast in the role of Little Edie.
