According to airport officials, it was confirmed early this morning that actor John Travolta’s dogs were, indeed, killed on the tarmac of the Bangor International Airport in Maine. The incident occurred this past Thursday and the news story broke this morning about the demise of two of the family canines:
“At approximately 1 a.m. on Thursday, May 13, 2010, an airplane carrying members of the John Travolta family landed at BIA. While there, two small dogs were taken for a walk by someone who is not a family member. An airport service pickup truck was approaching the airplane to service the airplane and did not see the dogs. Unfortunately, the dogs were struck and killed. The airport is investigating the accident. Out of respect for the family’s privacy the city will make no further comment.”
An email was found by the Bangor Daily News outlining the incident and the aforementioned statement from the City Council confirmed that the two dogs were owned by Travolta and were killed by an airport services pickup truck. The report did not state whether or not the dogs were on leashes.
Remember how the Lohan’s got that big, scary “you-might-go-to-jail” court date just looming over the end of this week? Yeah, it looks like Lindsay’s trying to worm her way out of it and crying, “Volcano!” in an effort to miss the important hearing.
Lohan’s currently in Cannes stumping for her latest “movie,” the biopic of porn star Linda “Deep Throat” Lovelace, and is voicing concerns over the amount of volcanic ash still hovering in the airspace that she’s to fly through in order to make it soundly back to LA. Her hearing is scheduled for Thursday and will determine whether or not she’ll go to jail for that pesky alcohol education-violating thingy, but she claims that she hasn’t yet been able to find a flight into LA. Call Oz, baby, call Oz.
Unfortunately for Lindsay, the judge has already claimed that if she’s a no-show for their date, a bench warrant will be issued for her arrest.
I don’t know about you, but I’m kind of hoping she doesn’t show. Not only will it make for an excellent story, it might smack some sense into the dumbass and trigger a pattern of better behavior. Lindsay in the Pokey. She could make mils off of that kind of imagery alone.
Back in January, Jason Alexander became the new Jenny Craig spokesperson. He’s lost 30 pounds, and judging by the video above, he’s pretty happy with those results. I just wish every celebrity who loses weight would celebrate with a flashy song and dance number.
The Jenny Craig program is not a hard program. But it does take a committed person to reach success. Every day you are doing this work, working toward your goal — you are showing yourself and the world what real commitment is all about.
He also gives advice to people in the process of losing weight:
Look at yourself. You look better. You feel better. Not perfect! Not there! – But better. And that is the right direction. Nobody did this to us. This is not a world conspiracy. We got ourselves to the place where we needed to make this change for our lives. And ultimately, we are responsible for making it right again. And we can.
Be selfish — no one else matters in this but you. You deserve your fullest life back. You deserve to be able to breathe deeply. You deserve to be able to walk as far and as fast as you want to walk — and to run if you wish. You deserve to be able to buy clothing from any store you walk into. You deserve quality foods to serve yourself — fresh, filled with flavors and nutrients and textures and color. You deserve to be proud of who you are — to revel in your strength of mind, body and character. You deserve to walk the streets and beaches feeling eyes on you and knowing you look strong and healthy. You are doing something that many, many people believe they cannot do or flat-out will not do.
What do you guys think about these kinds of diets? Is it helpful to have a weight loss program or should you just eat healthy food and work out more? Does it feel weird to see Jason Alexander look pretty all right in spandex?
The Office, also known as one of the best TV shows that ever happened, is currently about to wrap up its sixth season, and Steve Carell’s contract is up after the seventh. And he doesn’t plan on sticking around afterwards.
That first part isn’t that new, but there hasn’t been much word on NBC’s stance. They’ve recently stated that they’re about as happy with the prospect of Carell leaving as I am, which is not at all. Representatives of NBC said “we hope we can keep him around for a long time,” but regardless of Carell’s presence, the show will go on. Writers are already working on possibilities for continuing on without Carell’s character.
I have no idea what would happen to Dunder Mifflin without Michael. Jim would probably take over to get more money for the baby. But then there’s Ryan, who at some point went from being a smarmy douchebag to an adorable hipster/smarmy douchebag. Or maybe Dwight could pull through, though I think he’d be heartbroken at Michael’s departure.
Goddamnit, NBC, you just make me fall in love then you break my heart. If The Office gets cancelled because Steve Carell leaves, I can’t be held responsible for the angry, tear-stained letters that you receive.
Remember on Newlyweds how cute Nick’s brother and former bandmate Drew was with his wife Lea? Whenever Nick and Jessica would hang out with Drew and Lea it was always felt super obvious that compared to the rock solid relationship Drew and Lea had, Nick and Jessica were just playing house. Since that show ended Nick and Jessica got divorced and Drew and Lea have managed to stay together and have two kids, the second of which was just born last weekend. The couple are now the proud parents of Isabella Claire (age 4) and a little boy, Hudson.
Perhaps the main thing that Drew and Lea had going for them is that they live a pretty low-key existence. The two met before Drew’s band blew up in the 90s and they reside in Cincinnati, Ohio.
I like these two. They’re supercute. Props to them for making it work all these years.
Christina Aguilera, amazing singer and powerful female, has taken to her website to make what she says her is last word on the subject of whether or not she’s ripping off Lady Gaga with her latest album and video.
I would like to take a moment to clarify something that has been brought to my attention this morning. It is very easy for comments to be taken out of context and create unnecessary drama-especially between us women. So I would like to tell you all directly so my words can not be misconstrued to sell someone else’s story…I have absolutely nothing against Lady Gaga or any other female artist in this business. I think she is great, and I appreciate any woman fearless enough to go against the norm. She has earned her success with hard work and a clear focus and I have nothing but respect for that.
There is room for all of us on everyone’s iPods.
This is not the first time I have been unfairly pitted against another female artist but it will be the last time I comment on the matter.
“Can’t hold us down….”
With love,
C/X
This is why Christina’s always been the best. The woman’s a legit feminist and has always taken this attitude when speaking about her female peers. Throughout all the years she could have bashed Britney for her inability to sing or Jessica Simpson for her inability to get her career off the ground, she didn’t. She never has. You’d be hard-pressed to find Christina Aguilera making a disparaging or demeaning remark about another woman, and I think that makes her a fantastic role model and classy as hell.
Well i think Taylor is a slut wearing those type of clothing and i wont be surpised if she goes out and she gets raped, why the hell is she wearing those clothing? thinking she looks cool, hot?? fuck no she looks like a hooker wanting...
She. Is. Marvelous. Seriously marvelous. And super gorgeous. I am not generally a fan of short hair, on guys or girls (late ’90s men’s fashion was a nightmare for me, and I was only in middle school), but she looks so...
