Seriously, this might be the most ridiculous story I’ve heard all week. F*cking MADONNA and her ENTITLEMENT PROBLEM has seriously got my panties all up in a wad today. When I watched the video that Jenn posted the other day, I didn’t laugh. I saw all sorts of red. I was actually pretty appalled at how unbelievably rude Madonna was. And now? Her rep has released some kind of BS statement that’s got me even more fired up about this whole silly thing:

“She’s entitled to like any flower she wants and she didn’t want to hurt the feeling of the hydrangeas of the world. No disrespect to the hydrangeas lovers of the world but she prefers different types of flowers.”

First, what the hell does that first sentence even mean? “She didn’t want to hurt the feeling of the hydrangeas of the world”? There’s so many wrong things about that entire thing. But about liking any flower she wants, sure she’s entitled to that, just as everyone else is, too. But who the hell gets themselves so up in arms over flowers that they’re willing to show such pithy adversity to a gift? Hasn’t this woman ever heard the term “gracious”? No? Yeah, I suppose not.

Maybe she was being all angry and hormonal that day – I KNOW HOW THAT GOES – but it’s always best to try and avoid hurting others’ feelings despite how crazy we happen to feel on a given day, you know?

Actor Ryan Gosling isn’t altogether sure he should’ve broken up that street fight last month—you know, the one that was caught on tape.

As you may remember, a scuffle broke out in a Manhattan intersection between a street artist and another man. Passerby Ryan Gosling stepped in and convinced the artist to let go of the other guy. Then he helped escort the two to the sidewalk. The video stops there, but we do know Gosling resolved the altercation with rational words and a $20 bill (presumably to cover the cost of the stolen painting).

“I’m embarrassed,” Gosling tells MTV News of the now-infamous viral video. “I, uh, I think the guy really was stealing that other guy’s painting, so…. I should’ve just kept my nose out of it.

“It was sad, because—turns out that—I said to the [artist] guy, ‘Why are you doing this?’ He said, ‘Well, he tried to steal my painting.’ I said, ‘How do you know?’ And he said, ‘Well, he comes here every day and looks at my paintings.’ Which means the [other] guy was a fan. And so he wanted the painting so bad he had to steal it, ’cause he couldn’t afford it. So he finally steals the painting, and then he’s getting his ass kicked by his hero [the artist]. And then the guy from The Notebook shows up and makes it weirder.

“And it’s just, the whole thing—nobody wins,” Gosling concludes. “Nobody won.”

He adds wryly, “You know, I had just come from the gymnasium, and I was all stretched out and feeling—” Gosling sighs heavily. “Feeling warmed up.

“So I’m embarrassed.”

Aww! It sounds like this might still be keeping Ryan Gosling up at night.

Late yesterday morning, Reese Witherspoon was hit by a car. She was apparently out for a jog, when an eighty-four year-old woman failed to slow down at an intersection, striking Reese with her car. The elderly woman was cited by police for failure to yield to pedestrians and received a fine. According to a source at NBC LA:

“Witherspoon suffered minor injuries and was transported by ambulance to a local hospital for medical treatment.” He [also] added that the actress was at home tonight recovering.

This just reinforces my stance that most people – especially the elderly – need to be retested for their driver’s license yearly after a certain age. I don’t know what age. I’m not a legislator, it’s not up to me. But as everyone knows, as you get older, you lose a certain percentage of your reflexes and depth perception is the first to go when your vision starts to deteriorate. I don’t care how good a driver your eighty-nine year-old Uncle Carmen is, not everyone is as sprightly as you say he is, and they shouldn’t be behind the wheel. This story up above? Well. I rest my case.

Kate Winslet is luminous on the cover of V Magazine‘s “Heroes” issue, which comes out today. For the photo shoot, fashion photographer Mario Testino reimagined Winslet as iconic Elizabeth Taylor in her prime.

I love-love-love Kate Winslet, but I always get the giggles at how willing she is to do nudity in movies—you know, for her art. But as Winslet tells V, nude scenes are no picnic:

I hate it! Listen, make no mistake, I just get on it. I just go in and say “Oh f—, let’s do it.” And boom. If you complain about it or procrastinate it’s not going to go away. It’s a profoundly bizarre thing to do…. You can literally be tangled in sheets, and you turn to the other actor and say “What the f— are we doing?” “Dear Mum, at work today I had so-and-so’s left nut sack pressed against my cheek.” It’s sort of unethical if you think about it in those terms.

Oh, yeah. I nearly forgot Kate Winslet also has a mouth.

“I am a great romantic – but I also think you can be a romantic and a realist. Life is complicated and long and I know people that I respect and admire and look up to who have had extra-marital affairs. It’s like we’re flawed – we’re human beings and sometimes you make choices that other people are going to judge. That’s their problem but I really think that the more I live my life the more I learn not to judge people for what they do. I think we’re all trying our best but life is complicated.”

- Gwyneth Paltrow continues her tour of talking nonsense.

Really, you guys, do you get what Gwyneth is doing here? She’s judging people for being judgey, and then she reminds us that she’s still better than us, this time because she doesn’t think cheating on your spouse is all that bad. It’s almost too much, it really is.
