… Oh, you mean you didn’t hear? President Barack Obama officially claimed he was on board with same-sex marriage today in an interview with Good Morning America, which would make him the first American President who’s gone ahead and publicly supported gay marriage. This is what he said, in a nutshell:
“I have to tell you that over the course of several years as I have talked to friends and family and neighbors when I think about members of my own staff who are in incredibly committed monogamous relationships, same-sex relationships, who are raising kids together. When I think about those soldiers or airmen or marines or sailors who are out there fighting on my behalf and yet feel constrained, even now that Don’t Ask Don’t Tell is gone, because they are not able to commit themselves in a marriage, at a certain point I’ve just concluded that for me personally it is important for me to go ahead and affirm that I think same sex couples should be able to get married.”
Naturally, people all over the US are freaking out, and, other than celebrating the obvious, are saying one of two things: that this announcement is either going to reestablish the fact that Mitt Romney doesn’t have a snowball’s chance in hell in winning the 2012 Presidential Election, or that many people who were on the fence to begin with are going to swing Republican even if it’s not their first choice. Me, I’ve been an Obama Girl the whole way, and I’m super-pleased to know that such an important person is on board with such an important issue, and I know who’s got my vote this fall.
Oh, I’m sorry—you were probably hoping to see these amazing photos with Lindsay looking all sorts of normal and non-cracked-out with her original lips and teeth, weren’t you? Well, guys, I hate to break it to you, but that’s just no longer the reality that we’re working with anymore. Nope, these photos—three of them in total—feature Lindsay Lohan in her Glee appearance, and if these pictures are any indication of how craptastic the cameras are going to be to her in the Liz Taylor movie, then I think we can forget Lindsay ever being “back,” as they say.
Because there’s no coming “back” from this, guys:
There’s just not.
Will you be tuning in to see the f-ckery in motion when the episode airs on May 15th?
The most glamorous stars in Hollywood sizzled at the Met Gala in New York City Monday night but there was one starlet who was noticeably absent – Kim Kardashian!
Kim’s new boyfriend, superstar Kanye West, was at Anna Wintour’s fabled Metropolitan Museum of Art Costume Institute Gala, but Kim was not by his side, and that’s down to an edict straight from the famed Vogue editor for years, a source exclusively told RadarOnline.com.
“Anna hates Kim,” a source says. “Why would she be invited to the event? It is all the biggest stars in the world and Kim doesn’t fit that bill at all. … The Met Gala is $25,000 a ticket, but Kim can’t even buy her way in, Anna Wintour does NOT want her there!” the source says.
“Kim and her camp will deny that she wasn’t invited by saying that she had business in L.A., but that is a lie,” the source says. “She would of [sic] done anything to be there with all the A-listers.”
… Don’t expect to see Kardashian gazing out from the cover of the esteemed fashion mag anytime soon either!
“Anna Wintour would allow Kim Kardashian on the cover of Vogue over her dead body,” the source says. “As long as Anna in charge you will NOT see Kim on Vogue.”
Can I tell you how good this makes me feel inside? That someone of “importance” doesn’t want Kim Kardashian around because they, like many of us, think that Kim Kardashian is a piece of half-rotted road trash?
Also, in the same breath, how much does it say for White House Press to invite Kim Kardashian to the White House Correspondent’s Dinner, but yet, she’s unwanted by people like Anna Wintour? Wait, no, you’re right—I get it now. The US government has got this, like, unlimited surplus of money laying around, and they can afford the forty-eight aerosol tons of Lysol that it takes to get the stink out of the fabric in the chairs. Duh, Anna Wintour’s got nothing on the feds, guys. Thought you knew.
… Because what kind of society would we be if we weren’t making untalented people famous for any other reason than to make untalented people famous? Don’t worry, though, folks—if you thought that there might not actually be a future for Rebecca Black, you’d be wrong. The little lady claims that she’s never going to stop singing. She did an interview with the Insider, and tells her “fans” that she’s here for the long haul:
Insider.com: How do you describe Sing It?
Rebecca Black: Sing It is very summery – it’s all about letting the music in. It’s very different than anything I’ve ever released but very appropriate for summer. I hope people will want to sing this in their car as their drive!
Insider: With all the negative attention after Friday, did you ever think about abandoning entertainment?
Rebecca: No. It’s such a passion of mine, I would never give it up. The first moment it all went down [was shocking] but I never had that moment where I felt I shouldn’t be doing it. Singing has to be part of my life in one way or another.
Insider: What did you learn from the experience?
Rebecca: I learned to not let mean spirited people get to you. You have to keep doing and it doesn’t matter what people say – if you really love something, keep going and don’t let anyone stop you.
Insider: You’ve released three singles so far, is an album in the works?
Rebecca: We are working on an album, which is very exciting – I’ll be back in the studio this summer with hopes of it being out in the fall.
Insider: What can fans expect from that?
Rebecca: I’ve got some fun, dancey upbeat songs, but also some soft ballads.
And last, what, did Rebecca Black go through puberty or something? Because now she sounds like a thirty-five-year-old mom of four. On autotune. And Quaaludes.
Boy, what a stupid question, right? “Love It or Leave It” with Zooey Deschanel as the subject of discussion? It’s like, “Duh.” Of course you love it. There is no “leave it” when it comes to this lady (unless, of course, she’s wearing something that looks like this, and then, for sure, it’s a “leave it”), because that’d be akin to kicking a puppy or shaving a cat’s ass and training it to walk backwards. It’d just be all sorts of weird and demented and wrong (… and kind of funny).
This is our girl Zooey at a New Girl event, which I’m ashamed to say I still haven’t watched yet. I know it’s doing pretty well, and people seem to be enjoying it … but hey. I should at least brush up a little on my current Zooey events, especially if I’m going to be loving on her so hard.
See, the thing with me is that I don’t generally get into something until it’s officially no longer a new thing. And not for any particular reason, really. Prime example: The Big Bang Theory? Oh my God I love that show. Here’s the nuts part though—I literally didn’t start watching it until three weeks ago, and it’s all because of the grand invention of DV-R that I’ve been able to subject myself to the obligatory Three Episode Rule (i.e., if I can watch three episodes and I’m still interested by the time the fourth rolls around, it’s a keeper). And, what, that show’s been on for how many years now? I’m totally not in the know about these things.
Are you guys watching The New Girl? Is it OK? Moreover, are you watching The Big Bang Theory? And are you as excited about it as I am? Because guys, I’m really, really excited. Friday nights in my house have officially become “Watch all of The Big Bang Theory episodes that we’ve recorded throughout the week in succession while eating copious amounts of takeout Chinese food” nights, and honestly, it doesn’t get much better than that.
The last book came out four years ago, and it’s not like it’s some newly discovered series. People have been talking about what happened in the books for literal years. The points that I mentioned have been discussed over and over again,...
I’m a New Zealander, and Grant Bowler is well-known here, he was on a really popular Kiwi show called Outrageous Fortune, and he’s definitely chraismatic and a bit of a bad-ass. Shame he has to deal with Lindsanity… he was...
Nicholas Hoult was Tony in UK Skins – he’s awesome, also Beast in Xmen (mentioned above) and in Tom Ford’s A Good Man. Such a great couple :) Love him, love her! They’ve been together for at...
