Today's Evil Beet Gossip

Prince Book Launch

Prince, the artist formerly known as a symbol, performed last night at a launch party for his book 21 Nights.  I thought Prince was all reclusive and ruminating and "I shun this curse of fame" but apparently he felt it was time to share his life story with the world. Someone once told me I look like Prince.  I remember being absolutely crushed.  Because, let's face it, Prince=not attractive and a dude.  OK this happened in the seventh grade... but I still carry the pain.  ...

How Stupid Do You Have to Be?

In 2005, Charlize Theron entered into a contract with watchmaker giant Raymond Weil for 20 million dollars.  The requirement:  She was to wear one of their watches when appearing publicly from October 2005 through December 2006.  Any other jewelry worn during the contract time had to be approved by Raymond Weil.  Instead she appeared in print ads and at a high-profile event wearing a Dior watch and jewelry.  RW sued.  This week a judge ruled that the case will g...

Body of Lies Premiere

Time is a thief.  Russell Crowe has aged.  Why does he look like Grizzly Adams at the Body of Lies movie premiere today?  A little Just for Men and a haircut would serve him well.  Leonardo DiCaprio looks hot...bloated but hot.  Not a question in my mind he's a closet potato binger. These guys are celebrities; I expect them to be Botoxed, plastic and firm...the way nature intended.  [gallery]...

Amy Winehouse Invited to Space Opera

The Church of Scientology has reached out to Amy Winehouse in an effort to help with her spiraling drug addiction.   Narconon, based on the teachings of L. Ron Hubbard, is a rehabilitation plan with an approach of cold turkey withdrawal, hands-on healing, vitamin supplements and enduring insults and prolonged eye contact with a coach as a way to build trust.  I know it also involves the counseling of the alien beings, known as a Space Opera, that inhabit her "meat body".  Yeah.  That ...

Beet is a Visionary

I'll be the first to admit it.  I was a non-believer.  I've spent time making fun, laughing and pointing and generally mocking my beloved editor who gave an A- rating to Beverly Hills Chihuahua.  I am of the opinion that if you are an actor, and you've been handed any script that has talking animals in it, you need to burn it and fire your agent pronto.  And I'm wrong.  And she was right.  It was the number one U.S. box office this weekend with a take of $29 million.  Inexplicable...like Atlantis, UFO sightings and Tara Reid's fame. />I'll be the first to admit it.  I was a non-believer.  I've spent time making fun, laughing and pointing and generally mocking my beloved editor who gave an A- rating to Beverly Hills Chihuahua.  I am of the opinion that if you are an actor, and you've been handed any script that has talking animals in it, you need to burn it and fire your agent pronto.  And I'm wrong.  And she was right.  It was the number one U.S. box office this weekend with a take of $29 million.  Ine...

Beyonce Receives Award

Beyonce was inducted into the International Pediatric Hall of Fame at the Miami Children's Hospital Foundation Diamond Ball and Private Concert this weekend.  I support famous people who use their celebrity for charitable organizations and the greater good.  However... You've never seen so much off the rack acetate crap in your life.  Looking at these pictures makes me feel like I'm at the prom of hell.  Someone get me a bucket of pigs' blood STAT. Highlights include:  Beyonce...

Mariah Carey Gets Stuffed

 

  How many layers of industrial strength Spanx do you think Mariah Carey was wearing to be able to stuff herself into this dress last night at The Bank nightclub in Las Vegas?  She is a human knockwurst. Incidentally, hands on hips with elbows jutted out goes by the scientific term of Backus Fat Avoidanceous Pose.    Evil Beet Gossip doesn't just entertain but educates too.  More examples of Mariah throughout the evening below: [gallery]...

Janet Jackson Still Feeling Nasty

Janet Jackson is still having health problems.  Last night, ninety minutes before curtain time, she cancelled her Greensboro, North Carolina concert based on the advice of a doctor who said she should not perform.  She has postponed five shows in the past week.  What do you think her "unspecified illness" is?  I think she's suffering from anxiety attacks.  Or a Frito addiction.  Equally debilitating.  Trust me. Get well soon Janet!...

The Fine Art of Knowing Your Demographic

Sandra Bernhard is under fire after comments she made at one of her concerts in Washington DC.  After allegedly stating that Sarah Palin would be gang raped if she were to visit the nation's capital, she was booted as a performer from an upcoming Rosie's Place charity benefit.  Sandra denies saying it in the context as it has been quoted in the media but I don't even care about that. Rosie's Place is a Boston-based shelter focused on offering advocacy, housing and other resource...

Angelina Jolie is huge

There have been reports that Angelina Jolie is in counseling to help deal with feelings of poor body image since giving birth to twins Vivienne and Knox.  Bravery was apparently the theme of the day as she attended the Changeling movie premiere with my husband Brad Pitt.  Poor thing had to be seen publicly in a size 8 dress. She's hot, she's skinny and I have no idea how she looks this way three months after giving birth to two kids.  I haven't been that thin since I was eig...
