For those of you concerned about such things, if you were wondering when was a good time to jump off the bandwagon, here’s your cue.
Writing under the handle DameElizabeth, Taylor is the latetst of a slew of celebriteis to transmit their thoughts in 140 characters or less. In the hospital for a “routine visit,” Taylor twittered her gratitude to fans and well wishers, which included Kathy Ireland.
Taylor, who has been in and out of ill health for years, had to relay via her rep last summer that she was not at death’s door—but now it sounds as if she’ll be tweeting such news.
The iconic, jewelry relishing thesp seems to have Internet access at the ready, but apparently she’s also looking to add one comfort of home to her hospital room.
“Thanks Darling for the beautiful flowers and all the prayers,” Taylor tweeted about four hours ago to Kathy Ireland. “Now can you just get my puppy past hospital security. Love…”
Actually, this is exactly why I love celebrities on Twitter. Elizabeth Taylor and Kathy Ireland? It’s like a private conversation between the perfume counter and the ladies section at Kmart- and we all get to listen in on it!

Someone stole something from Courtney Love and then sent her a case of Blackberries– the phone, not the fruit. At least, that’s what I can make out from her latest rambling Myspace blog, posted bright and early this morning.
While most people’s livers were still groggily processing last night’s liquor, Love was up early, vomiting her deep thoughts all over the internet.
so i look at etsy and i note Bernedene Mann took photos of everything Dawn Took with her and theres a TON of clothing and trims not returned, so is she selling it prvately?
NO its up on etsy theres my ribbons theres my lace!
but that would just be a horrific nasty twat being a twat
no this was grand larceny i have to go to the police about a whole lot of shit for insirance reasons this one is MIND BOGGLING
I’m guessing that when she says “Dawn” she’s referring to designer Dawn Simorangkir, who had a falling out with Love over some design work she did for her. Several times the post calls Dawn a “twat” or a “hag”– the same kind of internet name calling that resulted in a law suit earlier in the year. I’d like to write “Courtney had better watch what she says,” but let’s be honest– that’s not going to happen. And I’m very happy about that. Trying to decode the meaning of her pill-fed vitriol has become like a fun puzzle game for me.
She also says something about receiving a large package addressed to “Boudoir Queen” that was filled with new models of Blackberry phones that are “not yet on the market.” Love states that it “boggled” her mind, but she’s “seen weirder shit than any of [us] ever will.” Personally, my mind is boggled by the fact that, of all things, she managed to spell “boudoir” correctly. That, my friends, is some weird shit.

There’s nothing more depressing than sitting home on the Friday night of a three-day weekend with nothing to do except to look at pictures of rich people on vacation. But since it’s Brit, I’ll make an exception.
Now that she’s wrapped up the US leg of her Circus tour, she headed to the Atlantis resort in the Bahamas with her sons, nanny and boyfriend agent, to enjoy some fun in the sun. She looks tanned, healthy and sane.
You know, a couple of years ago, I don’t think many people thought she’d ever record another album. Now, to see her with a little bit of her own hair…it does my heart good.

I don’t know why Demi Moore is Tweeting these pictures of herself. I assume the message is to love yourself no matter what, and I can accept that. What I don’t understand is how Moore got those gargantuan implants for that stripper movie but doesn’t have an implant put in her head to…well…bridge the gap.

So You Think You Can Dance creator and judge Nigel Lythgoe (he’s also a producer on American Idol) has angered GLAAD with comments he made on last night’s season premiere of the hit show.
The same-sex dance team of Misha Belfer and Mitchel Kibel were met with criticism from Lythgoe for their effeminate samba. “I think you probably alienate a lot of our audience. I mean, we’ve always had the guys dance together on the show, but they’ve never really done it in each other’s arms before. Do you know what? I’d like to see you both dancing with a girl.”
Later, like almost every idiot in Hollywood, he carried on later on his Twitter account where he Tweeted “The same sex ballroom guys did remind me of “Blades of Glory.” However, I’m not a fan of ‘Brokeback’ Ballroom.”
GLAAD is mad. President Neil G. Giuliano said, “It’s unacceptable for this kind of blatant homophobia to occur. Fox Entertainment and Nigel Lythgoe owe Misha, Mitchel and the whole LGBT community an apology.”
See, this is where Lythgoe should have apologized and moved on. Nope, he then Tweeted, “I am very sad the word ‘homophobe’ is being used. That is someone who hates homosexuals. I dislike effeminate dancing! Wake up and listen!” and “I believe overtly effeminate dancing destroys the opportunity for many male dancers to be supported. Being gay doesn’t mean effeminate.”
Not being gay, I may not have the clearest perspective, but effeminate dancing doesn’t offend me. It just doesn’t. What’s Lythgoe’s problem?

“Uh, you know, probably.”
