Last week, Katy Perry made a comment on Twitter about the classlessness of “using blasphemy as entertainment.”  Everyone thought that was a pointed comment to Lady Gaga’s “Alejandro” video, which was released the day before.  She was asked about her problems with Lady Gaga while promoting her new album, and she was quick to deny her comment had anything to do with Gaga, saying it was “more of a non-specific, general thing.”  Though she did admit that if the blasphemy comment was directed at anyone specifically, it would be Russell Brand:

“The other day he was yelling out the window. He said something a bit off color, kind of blasphemous about the Lord Jesus Christ, and I smacked him for it.”

Ok, let’s stop right there.  If she actually smacked her boyfriend, that’s clearly an issue.  If the person you’re going to marry has such differing religious views than you that you feel the need to smack him when the subject comes up, go ahead and take some time to reevaluate your choices.  Even if the smacking part was just a joke, she referred to Jesus as “the Lord Jesus Christ,” which also makes me uneasy. Maybe it’s just where I live, but the people who say “the Lord Jesus Christ” are also the people who try to take you down the river for a baptism (which I’m not convinced wouldn’t result in drowning) and who tell you all the horrors that will face you at the hands of Satan should you continue with your heathen ways.  There’s only one popular dude named “Jesus,” we all know who you’re talking about.

After talking about her future husband’s blasphemy, she also said

“It’s just kind of deeply rooted inside of me, and hard to get away from. But everybody knows I am a massive Lady Gaga fan. If you look through my tweets, there will be about 10 of them that say that I am obsessed with her.”

In another interview that took place last weekend, Katy went on about blasphemy:

“Lately, I’ve just been seeing some things that are kind of…not something I would do, I guess. Like, you know when Madonna was on the cross? And, like, sometimes my boyfriend will say things that are ehhh… From where I come from, it’s hard for me to say that…”

And she also addressed the comments that her statements on religion are hypocritical:

“[People say] I’m a very hypocritical person, ‘How do you say that and [sing] ‘I Kissed a Girl’? Spirituality and sexuality are two separate things. When you decide to put it into the same subject, it gets interesting for some people.”

While I think Katy Perry is generally adorable, and her songs have definitely helped to break some barriers (one of my friends came out after “I Kissed a Girl” became a hit), all this blasphemy talk concerns me.  It sounds a little bit like she’s slipping back to her roots as a Christian singer.  Don’t go toward the light, Katy!

After being seemingly pregnant for years, Tiffani Thiessen’s spawn decided to come out today.  The baby, a girl named Harper Renn Smith, and Tiffani are doing well.  No pictures yet though!

Good job on that name, Tiff.  It sounds so classy, even though the name Harper always makes me think of my favorite pill-popping Mormon housewife.  Angels in America, anyone?

You got it. The Gary Coleman who’s dead had signed paperwork stating that he was to take advantage of all of the options that would have prolonged his life, should he have some kind of possible-ex-wife-induced (or, you know, any other kind of) accident. But yet, ex-wife Shannon Price claims that she was “forced” into pulling the plug. Forced, chose to, hey. There’s a fine line somewhere there, right? Ugh.

According to documents secured by TMZ, Gary’s paperwork citing to utilize life-saving measures no matter what the cost dated back to 2006, so it’s not as if it was something new that could have possibly been overlooked or pushed under the rug, far away from the public’s prying eyes.

In continuously fishy news, Shannon Price claims that she didn’t sell her ex-husband’s death photos. Oh, that and I’m a flying unicorn named “Mamie” who shits gold bricks. Just so you know.

Gary’s death is being ruled an “accident,” and in light of this decision, a second autopsy will not be performed. At who’s request, I don’t know, but it’s just not happening. According to Todd Bradford, Shannon’s attorney, Shannon is stoked that Gary can finally “rest”:

“Shannon is relieved that the cremation can go forward and is happy for Gary that he will get his wishes, the one he made clear in all of his wills.”

What a sick, sad situation. Poor Gary. Even in death, these horrible people won’t leave his ass (or assets) alone.

Cameron speaks exclusively to InStyle magazine for their July issue and discusses everything from work, to love, to being a parent. Diaz, who is currently not a parent, claims that she doesn’t want to have children. While her revelation isn’t exactly world-shattering, since plenty of people consciously make the effort to not have children, she speaks rather lucidly — and in a well-educated manner — about her rationale behind avoiding biological children. Diaz states:

“Having children changes your life drastically, and I really love my life. Children aren’t the only things that bring you gratification and happiness, and it’s easier to give life than to give love, so I don’t know. That kind of change would have to be either very well thought out, or a total mistake – a real oops!”

But claims that she’d totally do the aunt thing:

“I can be a pretty good aunt, but whether I’m a good aunt or a crappy aunt is really not remotely the same question as me being a good parent or a crappy parent. It doesn’t quite have the same impact.”

I mean, I know I come across as surprised that the girl’s got some intelligent, well-formed thoughts bouncing around her huge melon head, I still don’t know what I expected her to sound like in “real life.” A series of grunts, followed by a few belches, some incoherent babble and farts? Maybe. But then maybe I’ve just seen Shrek one too many times.

Lindsay Lohan, dare I say it, is looking good. I mean, you know, if you can look beyond the bleached hair that just isn’t the right shade of blonde and the coked-out, shiny, red eyes. Oh, and are those cigarette burns on her stomach?

Lohan was photographed in the above picture (from the ankles up, naturally, but I’m willing to bet that her “stretch pants” have flared legs, and then I LOL for real) “working out” and learning some “boxing techniques.” And by “working out” and “boxing techniques,” I actually mean “she needs to be photographed doing something other than falling out of clubs with her eyes half-closed and her over-worked cooch saluting random paparazzi.”

Lindsay attended the MuscleMilk Light Retreat this past weekend and her boobs posed for photos with those in attendance.

All in all, she does — she looks OK. She’s not ridiculously scary-thin like she was a few months ago and yeah, while I hate the hair and wish to death that she’d go back to her gorgeous ginger-headedness, I don’t have a whole lot of negative to spew about the way she looks.

Oh, and those boobs freckles? To die for, man.

So, Adam Lambert just released a new video for his latest single, “If I Had You.” And I’m a little disappointed. It was kind of typical Lambert, but without the majority of the bumping and grinding, and much less glitter. The song itself isn’t so awful, but the video is terrible and features some really unfortunate articles of clothing and accessories — white jeans? Gold glitter platform sneakers? Eeysh.

And you know, simply because he’s definitely talented and glitter-shiny and over the top, a lot of people claim that Lambert’s the modern-day David Bowie, but this! I’m just not seeing. I love Lambert — for who he is, and his talent, but not so much his brand of music — but comparing him to Bowie? Beyond the “stardust” and the makeup? Come on, now. I don’t think Lambert’s going to be a flash in the pan like some other current artists are, but he’s definitely never going to be a musician of Bowie caliber. Sorry.

Anyway, on the whole, I’m kind of disappointed with the vid. It’s not horrible and it’s better than a lot of other new music videos floating around out there, but it definitely kind of fell flat for me. I don’t know. Count me unimpressed.

What do you think?
