Random Pairing

These two commercial forces collided while on TRL in New York. I bet this photo makes J-Lo feel old.

Hello... Is it me you're looking for??

Found a sneaky few minutes to post some musings, thank bejaysis!

So. Petra Nemcova and James Blunt have split up. Not so shocking, lets face it, at some stage the stunningly beautiful supermodel was going to realise she was dating a whingey voiced craggy faced gnome.

Meanwhile, back at the ranch (or at the LA premiere of the Tudors...whatever you prefer yourself), Lindsay Lohan says she is dating.

Please let the conclusion I'm jumping to be incorrect!

Slow Posting

Apologies in advance folks, its going to be another slow posting week, am travelling again with work so don't have regular net access. For now I will leave you with this photo of Kirsten "Cocaine" Dunst and Johnny "Asshole" Borrell of Razorlight fame. A perfect pairing if ever there was one:

Wow.

OK. The less said the better about this outfit...you know what I'm thinking, and I know what you're thinking. But holy mother of divine justice is this girl wearing a HELL of a lot of makeup. I mean, I always knew she wore a lot of makeup but this picture really spells it out. I mean, her eyebrows look like they were airbrushed on! The girl is so young, she really does not need that much. I can just imagine her skin crying for air under all that..."Please Christina, Pleeeeeease! Oxygen! OXYG-EEEEEEN!!!"

James Blunt and Lindsay Lohan?

EW! Don't do it Lindsay! And if those paps who saw you coming out of his hotel at three in the morning are right about their assumptions then don't do it again!!!!

New couple?

Could Olivier Martinez and Penelope Cruz be a celebrity pair in the making? X17's photographers caught the two of them leaving Penelope's gaf on Friday...interesting. They'd probably make a good couple though as we've been led to believe that Olivier is quite the philanderer and Penelope was the woman given credit for the end of the Cruise/Kidman union (although, who are they kidding, we all know that there are many other reasons for a woman leaving Tom Cruise the first being the Crazy). It will be interesting to see if this develops.

Homey don't play that!

Well well well...it would seem Snoop's track record for bad behaviour is really going to cost him this time. The rapper (who resembles a rat and somehow remains attractive to me, I really don't understand it at all...), has been refused a UK visa - People.com says:

Diddy and Snoop have performed throughout Europe and were due to play at London's Wembley Arena on March 27. Reps for Snoop, whose real name is Calvin Broadus, say they are furious.

"A decision to refuse musician Snoop Dogg a visa to enter the UK at the last minute has thrown the tour he was participating in into chaos, although the concert at Wembley will go ahead whatever the outcome," his reps said in a statement Friday. "Snoop is on a major co-headlining tour with P. Diddy which has passed through Europe playing to over 100,000 fans without incident, without one arrest or any trouble of any description."

Asked about the ban, a government spokeswoman told PEOPLE: "The Home Office does not comment on individual cases. The Home Secretary has the power to refuse entry clearance to non-UK citizens if he considers that their presence here would not be conducive to the public good."

Its believed that this goes back to an altercation that happened almost a year ago at Heathrow airport when Snoop and his peeps were on their way to Johannesberg. This event led to seven police officers being injured and Snoop and couple of people from his crew being arrested.

In fairness though, Snoop has been involved in more than his fair share of trouble. Over the past couple of years he has been involved in lots of altercations, usually involving guns or drugs. It is sad though, I love the Snoop and its crap that his British fans will be deprived of seeing him in concert (I've seen him 3 times and that shizz is good fo' sheezy).

Britney goes to Class

Its exciting to have some new Britney activity to muse on! (As I typed that sentance I realised just how pathetic it sounded...but hey, I'll soldier on!) Brit's first bit of activity since she left Promises was hip-hop class at the Millennium Dance Complex in North Hollywood followed by some Japanese food. Apparently she nailed the routine taught by Darren Henning and didn't cause a stir except to stir on some of the students and observe a master class being taken after her advanced level class finished. According to People.com:

The pop star's presence in class seemed to serve as an inspiration: "All my students tried harder to get on their game," Henning observed.

Returning to the dance studio is a homecoming of sorts for the pop star, says Millennium Dance Complex owner Robert Baker, who counts Spears as one of his star clients. "She also comes in to scope talent," Baker told PEOPLE. "More than once she's hired our teachers to choreograph for her."

And true to form, the pop star stuck around after class to watch a master class from the VIP lounge.

Spears next headed to Bel Air fusion Japanese eatery SHU Sushi House Unico to meet up with three girlfriends around 10 p.m. The four women dined at a table near a window at the front of the restaurant, an onlooker tells PEOPLE.

Upon leaving, the pop star smiled at waiting photographers and gave a friendly wave before heading home alone at about 11:30 p.m.

When she left the restaurant she was sporting these blue contact lenses (the only sign of crazy in the evening):

Kind of wierd, but if thats as crazy as she gets then I'm cool with it. I really am optimistic about Britney turning things around for herself.

Britney is Freeeeee!

Well, Britney is out of rehab. Didn't that month fly in? I for one don't think a month is long enough but at least she finally stuck it out.

Apparently K-Fed is treating the whole thing cautiously. According to People.com:

"Kevin and his divorce attorney Mark Vincent Kaplan are very happy and cautiously focused on Britney's rehab follow-through," the source says. "Federline and Kaplan are not about to return custody to Britney as a reward for her going through Promises."

According to the source, Federline has taken the position that "Britney will have increased custody (after) demonstrating that she is living the life consistent with the best interest of her children."

Good for him. I still wonder if there is a chance for reconciliation there. It will be interesting to see how this unfolds, lets hope Britney manages to keep it together and continues to attend meetings and surround herself with supportive people.

Back back back...

Sorry for the lack of postage guys, as I mentioned before, my work has changed and it means that for the moment things are pretty manic! But now lets get down to the posting.

Jesse Metcalfe is in rehab for "alcohol issues", and there are also rumours that he and Nadine Coyle are set to marry. Hmmm...could it be that he popped the question in a drunken stupour and then thought, "Jaysis, I have GOT to do something about this drinking problem!"? Either way, if he has a problem, good for him for dealing with it.

Happy St. Patrick's Day!

Happy St. Patrick's Day! Today is annual drinking day here in Ireland so I will not be in any fit state to post, but I hope to make up for it tomorrow. Have a pint to celebrate!

In your dreams Paula!

Paula Abdul is still talking about how much she would hate to date Simon Cowell. Methinks the lady doth protest too much! According to the Sun:

But she added that any rumours of a romance between the pair were wide of the mark.

"He makes this stuff up,” she said. “He said, 'Paula, people want us to hook up so bad.' I said, 'That's disgusting.' He goes, 'Paula, I know you want me,' and I go, 'Like a cold sore.’

Yes right Paula, you would love to be with Simon but there is no way in hell he'd take your crazy ass.

Look at the look on her face! She's like "Bitch, get your hands off!"

Justin for Britney!

Ah. According to today's Sun Mr. J-T has written a letter to Britney tell her she has his "unconditional love and support" and offered to visit her. Apparently B was in tears reading it, which is understandable. I think everyone can pinpoint Britneys decline to that breakup. It was obviously very difficult for her. Hopefully he means it because she needs a lot of support so that she can go from this:

Back to this:

Reese on Style

Reese looks ok on the front of Harper's Bazaar. I don't really like those "Ooh I'm just so so soooo happy" covers, but I am glad that she is smiling after her divorce from Ryan Phillippe.

Hairspray!

Here are some pictures of the cast of Hairspray! the movie, at ShoWest in Las Vegas. I'm pretty excited about this movie, I am a massive fan of the original having watched it repeatedly as a child. I'm hoping that this remake can live up to it, I'm pretty opimistic as I can't remember the last time Alison Janney made something I didn't like.

Jordan is Mother of the Year

How wonderful. I actually think she deserved this, especially up against parents Kate Moss. Jordan seems to take really good care of her boys despite the obstacles against them. Congratumalations.

Brangelina's new Addition

This is a picture of the new childdler about to wing his way to New Orleans. He's cute. His name is Pax Thien Jolie. Pax, Maddox, Zahara and Shiloh. Quite the family!

Prince Charles

Ok, seriously Prince William appears to have morphed into Prince Charles judging by this picture from Cheltenham yesterday.

Drew has a new Man

Yep, it would appear she is over her breakup (jays that was fast) and is now canoodling with Indie director and all-round cool guy Spike Jonze (you may remember him from such movies as Adapation and Being John Malkovich). Good for her.

Homophobe alert!

This BS makes me want to vomit.

Garrison Keillor who was host of the real life Prairie Home Companion as well as writing the script and appearing as himself in the film has a column which is syndicated on salon.com. In the movie he's a bit of a dumbass but a fairly likeable character.

In real life he is has his head stuck up his hole it turns out.

He writes:

The country has come to accept stereotypical gay men -- sardonic fellows with fussy hair who live in over-decorated apartments with a striped sofa and a small weird dog and who worship campy performers and go in for flamboyance now and then themselves. If they want to be accepted as couples and daddies, however, the flamboyance may have to be brought under control. Parents are supposed to stand in back and not wear chartreuse pants and black polka-dot shirts. That's for the kids. It's their show.

And:

Under the old monogamous system, we didn't have the problem of apportioning Thanksgiving and Christmas among your mother and stepdad, your dad and his third wife, your mother-in-law and her boyfriend Hal, and your father-in-law and his boyfriend Chuck. Today, serial monogamy has stretched the extended family to the breaking point. A child can now grow up with eight or nine or 10 grandparents -- Gampa, Gammy, Goopa, Gumby, Papa, Poopsy, Goofy, Gaga and Chuck -- and need a program to keep track of the actors.

And now gay marriage will produce a whole new string of hyphenated relatives. In addition to the ex-stepson and ex-in-laws and your wife's first husband's second wife, there now will be Bruce and Kevin's in-laws and Bruce's ex, Mark, and Mark's current partner, and I suppose we'll get used to it.

Em. He clearly researched this article by watching a few episodes of Queer Eye and Priscilla Queen of the Desert. First of all, I know PLENTY of straight obnoxious mothers who "wear chartreuse pants and black polka-dot shirts" and embarrass their children by being loud and obnoxious. And I know plenty of straight obnoxious fathers who shout and scream at the side of a soccer pitch and aren't capable of showing their children any love. And I know plenty of gay men and women who you couldn't pick out on the street (not that that in any way makes them a better potential parent than someone wearing an out and proud t-shirt). Parents clothing and dog ownership and flamboyance have absolutely nothing to do with their ability to love and cherish a child and raise them to become happy and secure human beings. People like Garrison who preach based on ignorance should not be allowed to write in the public domain. Everyone is entitled to their opinion as long as they can back it up but this simply has no foundation.

Incidentally I've decided to start a "Homophobes I don't like at ALL" list here. If you have any suggestions, feel free to send them my way.
