Gerard Butler and Jennifer Aniston on the cover of the latest “W” magazine.
The two reportedly have a huge spread in the April issue. They are playing up their characters from their upcoming film, The Bounty Hunter which hits theaters March 19th.
Shock Jock Howard Stern is stirring up controversy again by saying that Precious star Gabourey Sidibe is too “enormous” to ever work again.
[Listen to the audio clip of Howard Stern/ Robin Quivers talking about Gabourey Sidibe below]
“There’s the most enormous, fat black chick I’ve ever seen. She is enormous. Everyone’s pretending she’s a part of show business and she’s never going to be in another movie. She should have gotten the Best Actress award because she’s never going to have another shot. What movie is she gonna be in?”
Ok, so Howard was harsh in saying what he said, but really people, is he wrong? I don’t think so. Sure, Gabourey might land a role or two in the next year (which she already has) but after the buzz of Precious is over, so will Gabourey’s career be.
You can argue that Mo’Nique, Oprah Winfrey, etc. are all successful in the entertainment industry, but they have established careers. They have all been doing this many years and none of them started out with an Academy Award nomination. The only place Gabourey has to go is down, sadly.
And as for Howard calling her “enormous,” well, I hate to break it to you folks who are freaking out about this, but she IS HUGE. And like he says, she will die an early death if she doesn’t get healthy soon. She is at a dangerous weight, if not deadly.
I am not hating on Gabby, I think she’s great and was really hoping for her to win an Oscar. But I am not going to pretend what Howard says isn’t true – because it is.
Hollywood is so fickle. They all have their heads up Gabourey’s ass right now because she is “hot,” but before you know it, it will be like no one ever knew her. Howard is just speaking the truth, and sometimes the truth hurts.
‘Mad Men’ Barbies Joan Holloway, Roger Sterling, Don Draper and Betty Draper
Mattel has revealed it’s Mad Men Barbies!
The four characters the toy company has chosen to put into doll form are Joan, Roger, Don & Betty. So, Ok, I have’nt owned a Barbie in years, but seriously, I am considering getting these! But really, what would I do with them? *Sigh*I still can’t help thinking I want them..
I love how the women look like the vintage Barbies. I had some vintage 60’s Barbies when I was a kid and I would kill for them now! (Not to mention my Cher & Farrah Barbies, as well as Donny & Marie in those funky purple outfits!) My great-grandma bought them for me at a yard sale or something, and I loved them even back then. They were always more demure than the 70’s & 80’s Barbies I was playing with at the time. They had thick liner on their lids, snotty looks on their faces and rigid extremities. Heh.
Anyhow, the Mad Men Barbies will be a part of the Barbie Fashion Model Collection and will go for a whopping $74.95 each. 7,000 to 10,000 dolls of each character will be manufactured. The Mad Men Barbies will be sold in specialty stores and on amctv.com and barbiecollector.com.
80’s teen heartthrob Corey Haim was found dead this morning in his mother’s apartment.
Corey reportedly collapsed in his mother’s bedroom before his death. Prescription drugs were found nearby. Haim had been battling a flu recently but the drugs were not flu related. No illicit drugs were found.
Corey Haim was only 38. His battle with drugs was widely known and even documented on the reality show, “‘The Two Coreys.” Corey died in the same apartment complex that singer Rick James was found dead in.
I am very sad to hear Corey is dead. I had a major crush on him in the 80’s, and in recent years found it very sad that he had reverted to drugs on such an insane level. (He actually cleaned his act up for awhile, 5-6 yrs ago.)
I’m sure his best friend of many years, Corey Feldman will be quite shaken up from the news. He is currently going through a bitter divorce with estranged wife, Susie.
It’s always sad reporting about a dead celebrity, there have been far too many in the past year, and amazingly enough, they just keep dying from drug overdoses.
Sadly, we saw Corey’s death coming. He was a mess there for awhile. His inner demons just kept on winning…
Hopefully Corey is at peace now, I don’t think he had been at peace for many, many years. But dammit, 38 is far too young to die. Thoughts go out to his mother who discovered him. I cannot even imagine.
R.I.P. Corey Haim 1971 – 2010
Below: Video of Corey Haim with best friend Corey Feldman taken just a few weeks ago by TMZ. Corey looks really good in the video – and sober. He seemed clear and sharp, and those awful dark circles under his eyes weren’t there. A damn shame…
