Cougar Town Review: Love it or Hate it?

Spicy — Thu, 24 Sep 2009 16:35:53 +0000

Would you give Cougar Town a good or bad review?

Cougar Town with Courteney Cox premiered last night and even though I really, really wanted to like it, I was left scratching my head afterwards.

The biggest problem I had with the show is that Courteney was choosing high school boys as the ultimate prize. Like if she nailed a minor it would prove that “she still has it”.

It repulsed me!

Ok, I get the Cougar thing, but her flashing and oogling over 17-year-olds was a little uncomfortable and weird. I’d like to think that a Cougar is a woman over 35 who tries to score men in their early 20s, not teenagers!

If this show were the other way, meaning a man had the lead role and was drooling over cheerleaders at a football game (Courteney was drooling over a teen boy at a high school football game) can you imagine the outrage? Why is it allowed to be a woman instead?

I don’t know, it just rubbed me the wrong way even though I have a twisted and sometimes sick sense of humor. I did not find the humor in it.

Please give me your thoughts on the show, I’d love to hear them!

Jen Aniston and John Mayer helped Courteney Cox and David Arquette celebrate their nine year anniversary last night.

The two couples attended a humanitarian event in honor of Jeffrey Sachs (who is known for his charity work with Ms. Jolie) at a steakhouse in Los Angeles.

A witness says that Jen and John, “had their arms around each other. She was rubbing his back and whispering into his ear. They were touching each other non-stop all night.”

The couple have been spotted together numerous times over the past couple of months. John attended the cast party of Aniston’s new film, Marley & Me, in Miami and more recently they enjoyed time together at the home of Cox and Arquette.

Of the relationship with Aniston, Mayer has said, “This is not a scandal, this is not an issue, this is not a problem, this needs no spin control. This is me living my life.”

A Little Bit O’ Spice

Spicy — Tue, 10 Jun 2008 05:38:45 +0000

Courteney Cox’s FX show, Dirt, will not be renewed for a third season. She broke the news at the “A Time for Heroes” Celebrity Carnival by saying, “It just got canceled.” However, she adds that she and hubby David, who she co-produced the show with, have other tricks up their sleeve. She dished, “We’re developing all kinds of stuff right now. We’ll producing more stuff together, for sure.” On a side note, Cox recently said her BFF Jennifer Aniston is doing good these days, and the two have been enjoying time together with and without Jen’s flavor of the week, John Mayer.

Mark Wahlberg, 37, is going to be a daddy for the third time. He and longtime girlfriend Rhea Durham, 29, have two other children, daughter, Ella, 4 and son Michael, 2. “When the kids are good, we want eight or nine. When they’re bad, we [want] to stop at three,” Wahlberg said Monday while promoting his new movie, The Happening. Wahlberg didn’t say when the baby is due, but he said that having a family is “awesome . . Hectic at times, but a lot of fun.” He also revealed the pressures of fatherhood. “My fear is failing as a father, as a friend, as a son. I have a lot of responsibility and a lot of people counting on me. And I know God has put me in this position to put back and try to create some opportunities for some others, show kids there is another way.”

Jay Leno is reaching out to “Tonight” show alum Ed McMahon as he faces foreclosure on his Beverly Hills home. “Everybody loves Ed. Jay and others on the show are discussing how they can help him,” Leno’s rep told the NY Daily News. Reportedly, McMahon’s public money troubles have prompted help from fans of Johnny Carson’s former sidekick, including several endorsement offers. “A lot of people have shown generosity,” says Howard Bragman, McMahon’s rep. “Things are going to work out.”

Kate Hudson refused to comment about a possible relationship with Lance Armstrong on Ryan Seacrest’s KIIS-FM radio show Monday morning. Hudson was on the show promoting her new eco-friendly hair product line with long time stylist David Babaii. Seacrest probed, “Are the rumors you’re dating Lance Armstrong true?” Hudson replied, “I don’t discuss my personal life . . My main priority in my life is my son and the number one thing I’ve learned is to discuss [these] things only causes more problems and more words taken out of context. Everything is always misconstrued and it’s always better to just let people speculate.” After the show Seacrest said he has a hunch that the two are a couple. “If it weren’t true, I’d say no. If it were true, I’d say what they just said.”

Jennifer Aniston Heads to the Movies. . .Watches Brad Pitt’s New Film

Spicy — Mon, 29 Oct 2007 19:05:52 +0000

Recently Jennifer Aniston quietly snuck into a screening of her ex-husband Brad Pitt’s new movie, The Assassination Of Jesse James By The Coward Robert Ford at the Landmark Cinema in Los Angeles.

Sh tried to conceal her identity a bit with a baseball hat (yeah, that’s a great disguise!) but when she was seen with BFF Courteney Cox, her cover was blown.

Poor, poor Jen, it’s been a couple of years now and she is probably still desperately in love with Brad. She’s probably shocked that he and Angie are still together. I know I am. I thought for sure that it wouldn’t last a year. Don’t get me wrong though, I still think Brad and Ang will breakup someday, but now that they have an entire clan of children it certainly will make it harder to do.

I kinda miss the old Brad & Jen. They weren’t out saving he world or anything but they had a sort of down to earth relationship. Or so it seemed.

Latest National Enquirer Cover

Spicy — Wed, 06 Jun 2007 14:32:39 +0000

MK at PopBytes posted the latest cover of the National Enquirer today.

The topic this week being the uplifting subject of divorce.

I have heard the rumors about Courteney Cox and David Arquette, and I seriously hope they are not true. I always thought her yin and his yang made this perfect happy couple. Maybe she and BFF Jennifer Aniston have been spending too much time together..or something. If they do split you SO KNOW that the media will find a way to blame Aniston..

I’ve also heard that Matt Lauer’s marriage isn’t going too great. But Mark and Kelly I just can’t imagine it.

As for Dog the Bounty Hunter, I am beginning to wonder if he really is a crackhead. This is not the first time I have heard this accusation. Wouldn’t that be ironic?
