Katie Price (Jordan) went on the Chelsea Handler Show recently and when I heard this, I almost peed myself.
If there is any show I would love the see Price on, it is Chelsea’s show. Because that bitch can handle anyone! Not only that, she is really good about being coy while busting your balls.
For example, Chelsea brought up Katie’s new boyfriend, Alex Reid, asking her: “So he’s a celebrity then, too?”
Katie: “Well he might be now that he’s been pictured with me everywhere.”
(and now for the good part..)
Chelsea: “Right. right. Well, you’re obviously going to take him straight to the middle.”
Ha! Katie is so dense she doesn’t even realize what’s been said and she agrees with Chelsea saying, “Exactly.”
I heart you, Chelsea! xxo
Larry King managed to royally piss off the former Miss California by persistently asking her why she chose to settle with the pageant after they sued her, and she countersued.
It didn’t take long for her to go from sweet, smiling pageant girl to annoyed super bitch in 0-60, flat! nHere’s what led to her walking off the show…
King: “Why did you agree to settle?
Prejean: “It’s a confidential agreement and I am not allowed to talk about that.”
King: “So the agreement discusses the motive behind why each party agreed?”
Prejean: “Larry, you’re being innappropriate…you really are. So..I’m not going to talk about…”
King: “What?! I’m asking a question.”
Prejean: “I’m not going to talk about anything that ws discussed in mediation it’s completely confidential and it’s a confidential settlement.”
King: “So what you’re saying is in the mediation, it was discussed why you were mediating.”
Prejean: “Larry it’s completely confidential and you’re being inappropriate.”
King: “Ok, fine. Inappropriate King Live continues!”
Prejean: “Yes.”
Then Larry takes a call. Prejean doesn’t even listen to the caller and instead looks over to her right and mouths to someone, “I am going to leave,” and begins removing her microphone. Or trying to at least..heh.
King: “Did you hear the question, Carrie?”
[Silence]
Then she doesn’t leave. She removes the mic but continues to sit there. Huh? I you say you’re going to leave, then leave!
The video is funny, Larry cracks me up. How can you not love him for his persistence? This whole drama with Carrie is just ridiculous. Why does anyone care? NEXT!
Kate Gosselin’s interview with Natalie Morales: VIDEO
Because I am BEYOND over Jon & Kate, and was never even into them in the first place, I am going to simply post this video for those of you who actually care.
If anyone wants to watch the entire video and do a write up for me let me know. I’m done with these two.
Matt Lauer interviewed Jodie Sweetin on the Today Show this morning.
Sweetin was there promoting her new book, Unsweetined, as well as telling us, once again, about her struggles with drug and alcohol abuse. I’m pretty much over her and her stories. I still don’t trust her. She hasn’t proven that she is 100% clean yet. Last time she did a big media tour like this she was simultaneously using. I do hope for her sake that she is clean though, I mean, I don’t want to see her fail, but I think she’s coming out with this book and everything a little too soon. Little Boy who Cried Wolf, anyone?
Mike Tyson opened up to Oprah Winfrey in an exclusive interview, which, in my opinion, was long overdue.
Iron Mike, as he was once called, talked about his youth, the many controversies surrounding his past and the death of his daughter.
Mike recalls being bullied as a kid and spoke of one instance where a group of boys killed a pigeon of his by ripping it’s head off in front of him. He says that someone yelled, “Mike, fight him!” And that was the turning point in his life. He realized if he fought, he wouldn’t be considered a target anymore. He says that fight gave him the confidence to “fight back.”
Oprah then reads Mike a quote of his, where, after watching a film made about his life, Tyson, he said he understood why the public saw him as a monster.
“Then when I watched the movie I get it. For the first time I get it. I’m watching as a human being that’s very rational now. I say, this guy’s so unpredictable, you don’t know whether he is going to take you out to lunch or stab you with a fork.”
He explained:
“I took a chance to become more objective. I never became more objective with myself and then I watched myself, when I watched the film and . . . that guy would make me nervous if I was in a room alone with him.”
“You scared people,” Oprah says. “I scared myself,” says the champ. “That was a scary guy.”
Tyson lost his mother at age 16. He never knew his father. But he did have a mentor, a trainer and a father figure, all in one man. Cus D’Amato. As Tyson remembers D’Amato, he is obviously shaken. He gets choked up and teary-eyed. Obviously D’Amato was the father he never had.
“I did everything he told me to do, and I won.I won every championship. Amateur championship[s], all the championship[s] . . . I’m going to cry . . . so, I won every championship, that he told me, because he told me what to do. And I started believing in this old man.”
D’Amato died in 1985. Mike says after his death he lost his desire to fight and began drinking and drugging. He felt lost and was not prepared for the loss. By this point in the interview Mike can barely speak he is so overcome with emotion. His love for D’Amato is painfully obvious. It tugged at my heart to see him so fragile and vulnerable. We caught a glimpse at the child inside Tyson.
Speaking of children, Mike also had a very hard time talking about his daughter, Exodus. He says he still isn’t sure what happened to her the day she lost her life after an exercise machine mishap. And he doesn’t want to know. Because, he says, he doesn’t want to have someone to blame.
As for his marriage to Robin Givens, Tyson says that his ex-wife lied to Barbara Walters during their infamous interview in 1988. He says he was too stunned to say anything at the time, something that he deeply regrets. But also, he says, if he would have reacted, it would have been “what they wanted.”
Tyson then spoke of Evander Holyfield and the ear incident. He says he bit his opponent’s ear because he was angry at him for butting his head repeatedly during the fight. He says he just snapped. “I was pissed off he was such a great fighter, too,” he adds. He felt no remorse for what he did and says his initial apology to Holyfield was insincere. Oprah asks if he has seen Holyfield in recent times. He says, “I’ve seen him sometimes – and he’s a little leary of me.” Tyson insists though, that he wants to sincerely apologize now, and shake his hand.
These days Tyson says that he is “tired of failing” and knows how much he has to lose. He is happy in his marriage, has a new baby and 6 other children that he says are his everything. Reflecting on his past he says: “I realize I was going to die . . . I’m just so embarrassed, I’m so embarrassed.”
As many of you know, I met Iron Mike by coincidence, at the Las Vegas airport in 2003, and the Mike that I met was the Mike on Oprah. He was polite, soft spoken and a gentleman. We chatted for a few minutes about his new tattoo and the significance of tattoos. When I tell people about our chat they often respond with, “And you still have both ears?!” or a simply a look of disgust. But I didn’t meet the out of control Tyson. I met the kinder, gentler one.
Mike has matured emotionally in his older age, but also, life has worn him down a bit. I find him to be fascinating, and have since the late 80s when he was just coming up. This was an absolutely classic interview. It was so refreshing to see Mike as a human being and not the unpredictable menace that he once was.
Whitney Houston’s interview with Oprah Winfrey, Part 2.
A great interview with Whitney. She is so open about it all, you rarely hear celebrities with such caliber admit to such drug use, marriage problems, or anything this personal.
Whitney’s voice does sound shot. There was some speculation after she was on Good Morning America last week that maybe her voice was ruined after all she has gone through. I hope she has a great comeback though, I am pulling for her.
Whitney Houston spoke candidly with Oprah Winfrey during an interview with the talk show queen.
She went into detail about the abuse she endured while married to Brown. She claims he was very emotionally abusive. She claims that in one instance he actually spit on her, and that provoked her to hit him over the head with a phone, drawing blood. She says their daughter, Bobbi Kristina, was coming down the stairs at the time and saw everything.
She admits that she loved her husband, even going on to say that they had a lot of sex (ew, nice visual) and that loving him was her real addiction.
Whitney admitted that her life took a turn for the worse after her starring role in the film, The Bodyguard. That’s when, she says, she really started abusing drugs. Although she used cocaine and pot before the film it wasn’t all the time. But once her film, The Preacher’s Wife came out, she was drugging daily. She never admitted to smoking crack, but did say she was free-basing.
She credits her mother, Cissy Houston, with saving her. She says her mother showed up at her doorstep with a court junction telling her it was either rehab or giving up her dream.
“One day my mother came to my house. She walks in with these sheriffs and she says, ‘I have a court junction [sic] here. Either you’re gonna do it my way or we’re just not gonna do this at all. We’re both gonna go on TV and you’re gonna retire. This is not worth it.’”
She adds that Bobby was home at the time but momma Cissy wasn’t having any of him.
“She said, ‘If you move, Bobby, they’re gonna take you down. Don’t you make one move.’ He stood there like he was scared. She said, ‘I’m not losing you to the world, I’m not losing you to Satan, I’m not doing this. I want my daughter back.’”
Today was only Part One of the interview, so if you forgot to watch it, make sure and DVR tomorrow’s show for Part Two!
Things have been tense between Jon Gosselin and his ex-wife, Kate Gosselin, and after Jon’s lengthy and extremely bitter interview with Primetime, it is only going to get kicked up another notch.
For starters, Jon put his young girlfriend up on a crystal pedestal.
“When I look at her, I don’t know, my heart pounds, I get sweaty,” he says of his new girlfriend, 22-year-old Hailey Glassman. Then for the real punch, “I feel like I love her more than I did Kate.” Ouch! Ya know, even if he really feels that way I think it is extremely detrimental to say it in a recorded interview like that. Doesn’t he know this is going to affect his children in the future? Sure, they may not be old enough to know what’s completely going on at the moment, but later in life when they hear dad talking about how he loved some bimbo more than their mother, it is going to sting.
He continues, “Polar opposite from Kate. I get encouragement from her, I get respect from her, two things that a man needs.”
Nevermind that tiny little third thing..
I never watched the Jon & Kate Plus 8, but it’s pretty obvious this guy isn’t the smartest tool in the shed. I think he looks like a fool. Same goes for Kate.
