“Losing a close family member is one of the hardest experiences anyone can endure. . . Never being able to say the word ‘Mummy’ again in your life sounds like a small thing. However, for many, including me, it is now really just a word – hollow and evoking only memories.”
- Prince William on the loss of his mother, Princess Diana, at a recent event for the Child Bereavement Charity in London.
Whatever you think, it’s becoming apparent that 2009 will be the year of the stache, folks!
From Page Six:
*Which 40ish actress has finally gotten pregnant for the first time? Her rep is denying it because she’s only a month into it, and has suffered miscarriages in the past. Said our source: “Watch for her to get bangs and start wearing hats to hide her sagging face because you can’t be on Botox when you are pregnant”
Duh! I can’t wait to see Nicole’s forehead! Ha!
*Which gorgeous daughter of a foreign-born billionaire had a fling last year with Prince William? While their families don’t get along, and she could never marry the future King of England, the hookup between their clans was not unprecedented.
Hmm…was Kim K’s dad, Robert, a billionaire?

*Have to have a Jackass on Christmas Eve right? Tis the season and all that. I’m not sure this guy got coal, but I do know he spent 3 hours locked inside a bathroom at a Cisco Adler party. This is a different night however. This male “singer”/talk show dude decided to get drunk. He got so blindingly drunk that when he went to his hotel room he couldn’t get the keycard into the door of his room. He then went down to the front desk, told the desk clerk what room he was trying to get into and that the hotel sucked, the clerk’s family sucked and that if he didn’t get into his room right now that he was going to keep yelling and abusing the poor clerk all damn night. The clerk gave him a new key, and the “singer” returned to the room. This time the key worked. Without turning on the lights he got into bed. Unfortunately he got into the bed of an elderly woman who was the rightful guest of the room. She obviously didn’t know she was sharing the bed of a famous “singer” and instead began screaming at the top of her lungs for help. Security came and our “singer” realized that maybe the elderly woman’s room wasn’t actually the room he was checked into for the night. Not even the correct floor. Never did apologize to the desk clerk either.
It’s Mark McGrath!

The top song of the year was George Michael’s ‘Faith’, the number one grossing movie of the year was ‘Three Men and a Baby’ and everyone was watching ‘The Cosby Show’ on television.
