The Week in Gossip: Guess Who Got Hitched!

Friday, November 28th, 2008

Brace yourself. Or better yet, pop a bottle—of Pepto. Spencer Pratt and Heidi Montag reportedly tied the knot in Mexico last week. And get this: They didn’t even call to prep the paparazzi beforehand. Those posers actually kept the ceremony a secret—probably to keep “the fans” from hurling spitballs at them during their oh so vomitous vows. You know what this means: The spawn of Speidi will soon be upon us. (Dah, dah, DAH!)

Speaking of celebrity offspring—soap please. Guess whose 3-year-old already has an f-ing potty mouth? (Don’t think too hard.)

And Little Miss Crazy’s long-awaited “comeback” album has been conveniently leaked onto the Internet for our listening pleasure—although dragging our nails across a chalkboard would be equally as soothing and a little less predictable—so give it play. The album will drop for reals this Tuesday. And yes, that’s a threat.

Speaking of music, the American Music Awards came and went last Sunday. Chris Brown, 19, stole the night and took home three awards, including artist of the year. His girly, Rihanna, didn’t go home empty-handed either. Power couple much? And it goes without saying that 5-year-old Taylor Swift kicked some adult tail too—what the hell are they putting in those Fruit Loops nowadays?

Just when you thought Kanye West was beside the point, he goes and wins an American Music Award and begins dressing Beyoncé. To. My. Horror.

If you recall, we were all about the sexy last week. We dished on how Hugh Jackman was named People mag’s Yum of the Year. The announcement came as a bit of a shocker (only because our boy Obama was ROBBED) and sources say it even left George Clooney in the cold. Apparently Clooney, who’s had his finger on the pulse of hott for two whole years, gave Jackman a 2 a.m. wake-up call to whine a little—hey, it’s tough being out-of-season sexy.

Who else is bitter? Nicole “I-once-married-Tom-Cruise-so-I-have-no-room-to-talk” Kidman thinks her new hubby, Keith Urban, was totally overlooked for the People mag sexiest title. (He is, after all, the Lady Lovely Locks of country music, y’all.)

Had your fill of sexy? Here’s a fun way to make some ugly. Enjoy.

Daily News Round Up: Canine Heros, Curfews, and Wedgies — Oh My!

Monday, August 25th, 2008

Man’s best friend does it again. A dog’s motherly instincts saved an abandoned baby boy from death in Argentina. The dog heard the cries of the child and promptly called dibbs. What’s species got to do with it?

Can Moyo please pass the mojo? For the first time since 1980, Zimbabwe’s chief opposition party, the Movement for Democratic Change, holds a majority in Parliament. This historic twist was brought about by the election of Lovemore Moyo to the position of speaker of Parliament. (It’s all in the name, baby.)

The government of Pakistan has had it up to HERE with the Taliban. The Pakistani government banned the Islamic militant group today due to an upsurge in terrorist activity and the Taliban’s admitted responsibility for the recent suicide bombings that occurred in a military arms factory. These bombings resulted in 67 deaths.

India to residents: You’ve been very, very naughty. In response to protests planned for today, Indian officials declared a 24-hour curfew in Kashmir. Many residents of the Muslim-majority territory are opposed to India’s rule and wish to align with Pakistan instead—so India pretty much told everyone to go pout in their rooms until further notice.

Madge is back: While the Dems were getting in gear to gather ’round and speech it up in Denver, Madonna took the stage (in a top hat, no less) to kick off her own party in Wales this weekend. The singer’s Sweet and Sticky tour is now underway and doesn’t seem to disappoint — if crotch shots and wedgies are your thing.
Speaking of wedgies . . . thank you, Olivia Newton John, for inspiring this.

Bring on the crazy: As if there aren’t enough egos in the American Idol peanut gallery, songwriter Kara Dioguardi is taking a seat at the judging table. You know what this means: Paula will have to step up her crazy game in order to compete for attention. Pass the popcorn, people.
