I’m not a huge fan of Joan Collins. It’s nothing she did – I actually thought she was delightful that one time she was on Roseanne – I’m just too young and too consumed with things like Justin Timberlake and margaritas to look far back enough to explore Joan Collins’ body of work. That’s not her fault. But Joan recently did a little interview with The Daily Mailin which she mostly just talked trash about Hollywood, and the lady said some home truths.
On the lack of beautiful actresses nowadays: ”When I was young, everybody on screen was gorgeous. I have to say, there aren’t that many good looking actresses around today. I mean, there’s Angelina Jolie and there’s… Angelina Jolie. Jennifer Aniston is cute, but I wouldn’t call her beautiful. She’s no Ava [Gardner] or Lana [Turner].”
On Cheryl Cole: ”I think that is why Cheryl Cole is so popular, because she is just so pretty and the public are starved of gorgeous people.”
On plastic surgery: ”Women who turn to cosmetic procedures look ghastly. They don’t look like themselves. I quite like the way I look, I’m quite happy with the way I look and I really don’t want to change it. In front of the camera my skin probably isn’t nearly as good as it used to be. But, I mean, what the hell, everybody’s got to get older. I think there’s something rather terrifying about people who are in their 50s or 60s trying to look 30 or 40.”
I think Joan is partially right. There really aren’t any Ava Gardner or Lana Turner types in Hollywood anymore, but that age of glamour has been dead for a long time. It’s an entirely different world in Hollywood, so it’s not really fair to hold the same standards, Joan. I’m sure if Audrey Hepburn had the paps tailing her like they do with Lindsay Lohan, or if Lauren Bacall had the whole internet talking about her constantly like it does with Miley Cyrus (not to mention how much of a field day it would have had with Joan Crawford’s Twitter), these ladies might not have been quite so glamorous in the eyes of the public. And that’s ok.
Also, who are you fooling with those plastic surgery comments, Joan Collins? You are 77 years old. Please.
What do you guys think about what Joan said? Are there really no truly beautiful women left in Hollywood (besides Angelina Jolie)?
I showed you the video Kathy Griffin made for the It Gets Better Project last week and you folks ate that shit up. I mean, how could you not? These videos of celebrities and average citizens reaching out to gay and other outcasted youth and letting them know that there’s so much to look forward to in life past high school are beyond touching. Anyone who’s ever experienced bullying on any level can relate to these videos.
Rob Thomas of Matchbox 20 (you love them, don’t lie. It’s OK. They can be so good sometimes) made this video that’s going around today and I thought his message was so powerful. Rob said, “…It gets a lot better. Like, right now these people are bullying you because they’re scared of you. Because at such a young age you have the courage and the conviction to be exactly who you are and because they don’t have that and they’re not as evolved as you, the only way they know how to deal with that fear is by lashing out at you and by bullying you and by calling you names.”
Please watch this video and pass it on to anyone you think should see it. And please consider making your own video and uploading it to YouTube.
Well, color me clueless. Not only did I have no idea that Anna Kournikova and Enrique Iglesias were still together, but according to my most recent Google results, those two crazy cats got married back in 2008. Dude, they started dating when I was in HIGH SCHOOL. That was like a decade ago! I remember because my BFF Jen was super obsessed with Anna. I guess I just assumed they broke up sometime over the last ten years like everyone else on the planet. Time flies when you get blackout drunk four times a week!
Anyway, I pulled these pictures for you of the couple vacationing together in Miami and not just because I’m completely stunned by the fact that they’re still together. No, I pulled these photos for you because one of Anna and Enrique’s friends just couldn’t control themselves and decided to moon the cameras trying to capture every tender moment between the couple.
Are any of you still into Celebrity Apprentice? Because they’re making another season of it and so far the cast they have lined up is… hilarious.
According to EW, the next group of D-listers to line up for The Donald include Starr Jones, Mark McGrath and my personal favorite, La Toya Jackson. A perfect start, if you ask me.
So who else do we think they should cast? I would love to see Carrot Top, Delta Burke, and Scott Disick. The first two are purely for the LOLs, but I’d like to see Scott try and prove that he has what it takes to do anything.
Are you happy with the Celebrity Apprentice picks so far and who else would you like to see on the show this season?
Excuse me while I pick my jaw up off of the floor. I was literally that shocked that one-half of an A-list couple would actually have the balls — or the sheer stupidity — to divulge juicy details such as sex, parenting, and another woman. Because that’s exactly what happened.
David, the male half of the Arquette marriage (hold your tongue), spoke out on Howard Stern‘s very upstanding radio show yesterday and was, naturally, asked about the state of his marriage to his more-famous wife. Arquette claimed that the main reason behind the split was Courteney’s decision to stop being his mom. (Burn, dude.)
Arquette also stated that the couple’s non-existent sex life was also a bit of a catalyst into what resulted in the couple’s official breakup. David claims that he and Courteney hadn’t slept together for a month (and also slammed Court by saying that sex had to be ‘scheduled’ and ‘methodical’) and Courteney had given him the go-ahead to sleep with other women (she always did strike me as the cool mom type). So what did little Davey do? Slept with true starfucker, Jasmine Waltz, who has been linked to a few other male Hollywood actors just in the past year — Chris Pine, Ryan Seacrest, and Jesse McCartney.
Jasmine, in case you care, is a waitress and — of course — an aspiring actress.
Though Arquette did what any man in his position might, it looks like he’s shot himself in the foot. He claims that he’s been trying to get back into Courteney’s pants good graces, but for a woman who strikes me as kind of being protective of her privacy, I think little Davey’s just about done.
In a move that shocked all of America last night (OK, well not all of America, being that they’re the ones who vote for this shit), Mike “The Situation” Sorrentino was voted off of Dancing With the Stars.
While I’ve never been a huge Sitch fan, I have to commend him for acting like a normal human being whilst on the show, and not letting his real (fake?) self show through. Though I thought he was going to be kept on a bit longer than he was, sheerly out of the public’s curiosity to see how long he could act like a man and not a sex ape, I have to say that I’m glad that he’s gone now. Why? Because now he can officially — and on the record — start boning Karina Smirnoff, ’cause we all know that that’s what this has all been about the entire time anyway.
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...
