Publicity Stunt

Whoppi Goldberg and Brad Renfro left out at the Oscars

mtorimar — Mon, 25 Feb 2008 19:06:00 +0000

Most people watching the Oscars last night noticed that Brad Renfro was left out during the “In Memoriam” tribute. An Academy spokesperson had this to say:

“It was really an editing decision because we can’t fit everyone in,” says a rep for the Academy of Motion Picture Arts and Sciences. “There was no specific reason.” In other words, they are saying he was not worth mentioning. Pretty effed up in my opinion.

Whoppi was also left out

Another person left out was Whoppi Goldberg, who was not included in the Oscar host montage. Which is very odd considering Whoppi was the first non-white person, and the first Oscar winner to host the show. Whoppi got emotional on the View today, as her co-host discussed their confusion about why she was not included in the montage. Click here to see what they had to say about.

R&B crooner Neyo was busted on February 19th while driving through Cobb County, Georgia. He was arrested for reckless driving and driving without a valid license. But more importantly, why is Neyo BALDING at 25…? Wow he really looks like George Jefferson in training. I hope he was speeding to his Hair Club for Men meeting…?

Britney finally gets to see her boys

mtorimar — Sat, 23 Feb 2008 22:06:00 +0000

Big Kev and his lawyers have graciously allowed Britney to see her boys Sean and Jayden. (I refuse to keep middle naming them.) We all know Britney lost all visitation rights when she went crazy for the 100th time, and refused to return her kids to Big Kev’s bodyguard. Well, since her stint in the crazy ward, and her daddy putting the smack down on all her cash flow, she has calmed her ass down. She reunited with her kids, who she had not seen in over a month, this morning. On hand during the visit were… drum roll please… Jamie Spears, a psychologist, one of Big Kev’s bodyguards, the court-ordered monitor and a lawyer. What, no National Guard?

Jolie-Pitt Family Vacation

How cute is this bunch, but I do have to ask what is going on with Zahara’s hair? I know you guys have your hands full, but you can afford to hire her own little personal hair dresser. It’s just a suggestion.
Thank you Betty Scoop for reporting some real news, because I know I have no reason for posting these pics other than the fact that I am just as obsessed with this family as the rest of the world, and I am not shamed to admit it.

Barack’s Rock Featured in Newsweek

mtorimar — Fri, 22 Feb 2008 14:35:00 +0000

Newsweek gives us insight to who the real Michelle Obama is in their February 25th issue. The article entitled “Barack’s Rock” described the possible future first lady as “the one who keeps him real, the one who makes sure running for leader of the free world doesn’t go to his head….. Onstage, Obama has introduced Michelle as “my rock”—the person who keeps him focused and grounded. …..She does this in part by tethering him to the more mundane responsibilities of a husband and father. She insists that Barack fly home from wherever he is to attend ballet recitals and parent-teacher conferences. When the couple host political gatherings at their home in Chicago’s Hyde Park, Michelle asks everyone to bring along their children. To help bridge the physical distance between father and daughters, Michelle recently bought two MacBook laptops, one for Barack and one for the kids, so they could have video chats over the Internet. Last Thursday, she cleared his schedule so he could return home to Chicago and spend Valentine’s Day with her and the girls.”

Michelle is on top of her game and seems to know what it takes to support her man and her family which is why as far as I’m concerned she’s already the “First Lady”…so for all the hoochies and skankrats calling Obama their man …Step Off Biotches! And no this doesn’t apply to me because you know what they say “behind every sucessful man is a great woman (me) and then his wife (Michelle)….it’s not scandalous because ‘chelle and I have an understanding when it comes to Obaby!

Theres more to Michelle than being a mom and supportive wife check out the full article here

Tiffany Pollard Goes Hollywood with "I Love New York 3"

mtorimar — Thu, 21 Feb 2008 17:32:00 +0000

According to the New York Daily News “Tiffany (New York) Pollard will be back with a third season of her VH1 reality show, this time sharing the bill with her ne’er-do-well boyfriend George (Tailor Made) Weisgerber…the season is going to be called ‘New York Loves Hollywood’ and will follow her attempt to become an actress in Los Angeles…they are currently trying to cast established industry people in Hollywood to be on the show with her.” Going to Hollywood to do what? I haven’t heard anything about a muppet reunion….sigh… this just means more caked up blue eyeshadow, tacky weaves and the hideous holy rolling Sister Patterson…..I swear I’m beginning to “hate” New York.
