Linda Hogan Responds To Hulks OJ Simpson Empathizing Interview
Posted on 16. Apr, 2009 by CSS.
Linda Hogan is responding to comments her estranged husband, former wrestling star Hulk Hogan, made in an article with Rolling Stone this week.
In the interview, on newsstands Friday, Hulk is quoted as saying, “I could’ve turned everything into a crime scene, like O.J., cutting everybody’s throat. You see a 19-year-old boy driving your Escalade, sleeping in your bed, with your wife. I mean, I totally understand O.J.”
The former family man later released a statement insisting his comments were taken out of context.
“Hulk’s serial cheating destroyed our marriage, our family and our future. Sadly, his recent comments remind us that his definition of fair is much different than what the law dictates,” Linda said in response to the controversy Wednesday evening.
A rep for Linda says that the family is “taking these recent comments seriously,” adding that the mother of two is using Hulk’s recent comments as futher evidence that the wrestling legend truly is the psycho she always believed he was.
“We have always maintained that the fear that Linda has had to live with comes from the rage and instability much too often associated with pro wrestlers.”

Hulk Hogan Starts Damage Control On OJ Simpson Statement
Posted on 15. Apr, 2009 by CSS.
Hulk Hogan wants to clarify controversial remarks he made in this week’s edition of Rolling Stone, on newsstands Friday, April 17.
While discussing his bitter divorce from wife of 24 years Linda, the wrestling legend told Stone reporters that he could have turned Linda’s life into a “crime scene,” adding “I totally understand O.J.”
Hogan now says his statements were taken out of context.
“Hulk in no way condones the OJ situation. As part of a larger conversation, he referred to it to exemplify his frustration with his own situation,” the athlete’s rep said a statment to the press this afternoon.
Um….we’re not sure that helps, Hulk.

Hulk Hogan Understands Why OJ Killed His Wife.
Posted on 15. Apr, 2009 by CSS.
After 24 years of marriage, a reality show, and a wrestling career, Hulk Hogan and wife Linda called it quits in 2008. Both subsequently began dating much younger people.
After Hulk was tossed out of his $18 million Central Florida mansion and having his estranged wife blow through nearly $400,000 a month as they hash out the details of their split in a bitter divorce battle, Hulk says he now understands why some men go postal and snap their wives’ necks.
“I could have turned everything into a crime scene, like OJ, cutting everybody’s throat,” Hulk fumed this week in an interview withRolling Stone. “You live half a mile from the 20,000-square-foot home you can’t go to anymore, you’re driving through downtown Clearwater and see a 19-year-old boy driving your Escalade, and you know that a 19-year-old boy is sleeping in your bed, with your wife . . . I totally understand OJ. I get it.”
Wow..Wow.. WOW!!! I didn’t think the Hogans could slip any further from the level of disgust I currently feel for the entire family- but now Hulks gone and put it on a whole new playing field. To say such statements publicly about the mother of your children is disgraceful to say the least! I don’t condone violence of any nature and I especially don’t condone people talking about hypothetical violent acts! So disturbing!
I bet Hulks been studying OJ’s ‘If I Did It’..
Hey Linda….you might want to petition the court for an order of protection.

Billy Bob Thornton BOOED By Toronto Concert Crowd
Posted on 10. Apr, 2009 by CSS.
Billy Bob Thornton gave an incredibly arrogant and bizarre interview earlier in the week to CBC radio’s Jian Ghomeshi in an appearance with his band, The Boxmasters. Apparently, Thornton told producers ahead of time not to mention his acting career at all and to focus on the music. Ghomeshi covered Billy Bob Thornton’s acting background as an introduction to the band, but his questions focused on their music and unique genre, which is described as a mix of rockabilly and 60s British mod music. That was enough for Thornton, though, who gave dismissive and inappropriate answers to questions and then criticized Ghomeshi for not treating him like Tom Petty.
Thornton and The Boxmasters performed at Massey Hall in Toronto last night. Instead of acknowledging that he was in the wrong and apologizing for disparaging Canadians, Thornton proceeded to call Ghomeshi an assh*le and to claim that the potatoes without gravy comment was directed at Ghomeshi, not Canadians in general. Over a million people have viewed his arrogant interview on YouTube and there’s no question that Thornton was the assh*le and that he was referring to Canadians as boring, not the interviewer:
Referring to Jian Ghomeshi, the host of CBC Radio’s Q, as an “a–hole,” the Oscar-winning actor turned musician interrupted his band’s set three songs in to give his side of the story.
After commenting on the beautiful theatre and the legendary performer they were opening for (Willie Nelson), Thornton said, “It seems as if when I say something it’s in the news.”
When that drew boos, Thornton continued: “Boo all you want, but I want to say something…. We’re really happy to be here, but I need to say something. I talked to this a–hole yesterday.
“I sat down and talked with this guy. He and his producers say, `We promise you we won’t say that’ (meaning references to Thornton’s acting career). The very first thing they said was that.“I don’t really like sensationalism,” he added. “If you look someone in the eyes and promise them something, and you don’t do it, you don’t get the interview. That’s the way it goes.”
The explanation was met by further boos and catcalls of, “Here comes the gravy,” a reference to Thornton’s description of Canadian audiences as “mashed potatoes with no gravy” during his interview with Ghomeshi.Before the show, Thornton told a Star reporter that he “loves Canada.” When asked what he meant by the mashed potatoes comment, Thornton, wearing a thick layer of skin-tone facial makeup and sucking on a cigarette, said: “I was talking about the guy who was interviewing me.”…
Ghomeshi could not be reached for comment last night. Earlier yesterday, he said it was one of the most difficult interviews he’s ever done and he was taken aback at Thornton’s strange responses (sample: when Ghomeshi asked when the Boxmasters were formed, Thornton answered, “I’m not sure what that means”).Ghomeshi also said it would have been irresponsible to his audience not to mention Thornton’s acting past during his introduction (he did not ask any questions about acting during the interview).
“Our policy is that we don’t allow anybody to tell us what we can and cannot say,” said Ghomeshi. “Beyond that, it was this notion and the language that he used during the interview that I thought was unfortunate, that we were `instructed’ to say this and that. And I think that does raise interesting questions about ideas around how much journalism is to be controlled, especially when it comes to arts and entertainment and culture, and I think that that’s a concern.
“The reality is, and I tried to explain this in the interview, these guys have only been together for two years. You just don’t get the kind of national press they are getting without the incentive being something like his career past…. And I think if he could graciously accept that and say, `Hey, I want to focus on the music, but I get that the reason we’re here is because I’m a movie star that’s won an Oscar.’ There’s not a lot of people who can say that.”
Ghomeshi felt like he was “in the middle of a tsunami” yesterday. He was being interviewed by media around the world. “The nice thing is the reaction that I’m getting from journalists around the world that is really kind of sweet, but it is all very odd … and a lot of people, especially in this country, seemed to support the way I did things,” he said. “Maybe it was a little Canadian to be polite, but I can live with that.”

Pretty soon Billy Bob’s going to be directing his non-apologies at 1/2 empty clubs.

Kim Kardashian Would "Die" To Be In A 'Twilight' Film!
Posted on 10. Apr, 2009 by CSS.
Attention New Moon casting directors: Kim Kardashian “would die” to be in a one of the Twilight movies; especially since that would mean lots of time rubbing her caboose up against series star Robert Pattinson.
Kim, who made her big screen debut in last summer’s stinker Disaster Movie, would love to be cast as an “evil bloodsucker.”
“I would die to be in Twilight,” Kim says in an new interview with PopEater.com, “being around all those hot guys.”
“I want to be a vampire. I would be one that was probably nice — no, I kind of want to be evil. I don’t know what I’d want to be — just a vampire.”
Good luck with that Kim!

Gisele Bundchen Calls Bridget Moynahan's Son "Her Child" & Talks Adoption
Posted on 31. Mar, 2009 by CSS.
Is Gisele Bundchen so beautiful that no one ever corrects her? She gave an interview to Vanity Fair, and OK! Magazine has some early quotes. They are not flattering. Gisele says that she loves John Edward Thomas Moynahan – Tom Brady’s love child with Bridget Moynahan – “as if he were mine.” She also calls John “my child” and mentions that she “already [felt] like he’s my son, from the first day.” Yikes.
Now that Gisele Bundchen and Tom Brady have tied the knot, it seems the supermodel is more than ready to stake her claim on his love child with ex Bridget Moynahan.
The newlywed says she feels that John Edward Moynahan is hers, telling Vanity Fair, “I understand that he has a mom, and I respect that. But to me, it’s not like because somebody else delivered him, that’s not my child – I feel it is, 100 percent.”
Bridget gave birth to John in 2007 (and appeared on the cover of OK!) and by then her former boyfriend, Patriots quarterback Tom, had moved on to Gisele’s loving arms. She’s never met the Brazilian beauty.
“I want him to have a great relationship with his mom, because that’s important, but I love him the same way as if he were mine. I already feel like he’s my son, from the first day,” Gisele reveals in the interview.
“He’s a little angel – the sweetest, most cuddly, loving baby. I feel blessed to have him in my life,” she adds.
That little angel was a shock at first for Gisele, who had been dating Tom before they found out his ex was expecting.
“It was definitely a surprise for both of us,” she says. “In the beginning, you’re living this romantic fantasy; you’re thinking this can’t be true, it’s so good! And then, whoops – wake-up call!”
Your move, Bridget!
-From OK! Magazine
Yeah, I’m sure it was a huge “wake-up call” for Gisele that she was dating a man who just unceremoniously dumped his girlfriend. So, how much of this is being taken out of context? I actually understand what Gisele is basically trying to say – that she has a great, loving relationship with her stepson. But the way she says it seems like she’s trying to out-mother Bridget. It’s all very The Hand That Rocks The Cradle, with Gisele cast in the Rebecca DeMornay role.
Gisele also told Vanity Fair that she is ready to start a family of her own
“I would also love to adopt a child from Brazil. When you come from Sao Paulo, you see five-year-olds sniffing glue on the corner. You think, if you make a difference in the life of one of them, that makes your time on this earth worthwhile.”

Welcome To The Comedy Hour Starring Lindsay Lohan!
Posted on 26. Mar, 2009 by CSS.
Lindsay Lohan would like the public to quit poking their noses into her private life. Don’t you people know that you’re keeping Hollywood’s original Mean Girl from securing gainful employment?!
We can always depend on La Lohan to bring on the laughs.
“My past is my past and it’s been a long one, but I’m growing more and learning more day by day. I’m not the same person and I don’t make the same mistakes… I move forward and I change,” the troubled 22-year-old said in a statement to E! on Tuesday. “Life’s too short not to.”
“If people would just leave my personal life alone — because it’s really not that interesting— then I could land a great role, but all the sicko fans and the noise is so distracting.”
Lindsay is such a riot!! I love the fact that she thinks WE the public are keeping her from attaining gainful employment. The reason this spoiled drama queen can’t get a job is because she has a reputation for being a bratty cokehead with a superiority complex. But I digress….
“I don’t drink, I don’t do drugs and I don’t lie,” she insists to E!.
HA! What do you call this, Lindsay? We suppose that’s Kool-Aid you were sipping out of that shot glass?
“I love to act and write and be creative, and I want to help people by playing characters that can send a positive message out to whomever may need it.”
Surely by now you are all laughing… I can’t believe she thinks we don’t all know she is drinking, smoking, and on drugs! It’s like when Paris Hilton claimed she has hardly kissed any boys- It’s like hello? who do you think we are?? We aren’t that stupid girls…

Courtney Love's New MySpace Rant Reaffirms She IS A Special Kind Of Crazy!!
Posted on 22. Mar, 2009 by CSS.
Courtney Love is a special kind of crazy. A little over a year ago she claimed that over $72 million had been taken from Kurt Cobain’s estate. Someone had managed to steal his social security number and used it to get 188 credit cards, along with buying a house and cars.
Apparently they haven’t caught the person(s), because Love is flipping out about it on her MySpace blog.
Now keep in mind she never ever explains what she’s talking about. She assumes that, because she’s thinking about something, we’re all thinking about it. Courtney has gone on what must be her most nonsensical, crazy person rant ever. And that’s saying something.
there are 27 TWENTY SEVEN Cobains inthe USA< there are no other people named Kurt and there is certainly not a name “KOBANE” AS IN DAWN CICCONE KOBANE. KAY?
NOW there are NO cobains in Ohio or New Jersey,
ALL of the people show including the 103 year olds ( when theres 50 that means there are tons more we were just looking at Cobains over 100 years of age, there are none so these peopel ALL HAVE PROPERTY< they all own PROPERTY, there are 1000s and 1000s of these using my and my daughters surname ( they have to to purchase the fraudelent property they have to show a forged POWER OF ATTORNEY to some batty old lady in the the county title office are you WITH ME?)i am fucking SHOCKED to see the STUPIDIDTY of some of your comments. really “kurt will always be no 1″ what the FUCK? are you fucking BRAINDEAD? Kurt is DEAD. yet he owns under his ssn over 2000 properties, under a few other names even more, do you get it? they stole HIS money were forced to use HIS surname and bought REAL property
do you UNDERSTAND? DO YOU UNDERFUCKINGSTAND? to show you much else would make you start singing i dont know,….Metallica? am i speaking to BEAVIS AND BUTTHEAD? HAVE YOU EVER READ A BOOK? ONE?
DO YOU REALISE WE ARE IN A DEPRESSION? DO YOU UNDERSTAND THAT ROCK AND ROLL IS AN INDUSTRY WHERE ALOT OF MONEY GETS STOLEN? ( EG HENDRIX FAMILY 280,000,000$)? DO YOU? ARE YOU YET UNDERSTANDING THAT THE FAMILY, THE MOTHER, SISTERS, HALF BROTHER AND DAUGHTER OF KURT COBAIN HAVE HAD EVERY PENNY STOLEN AND PUT INTO CRAPPY ASSED PLANNED UNIT SUBDIVISIONS, LOOK AT “CARMEN”
DO YOU THINK THAT THERE IS A CARMEN? IN THE WORLD? COBAIN? THERE IS NOT. AS STATED THERE ARE NO COBAINS OF ANY VARIANT IN OHIO OR NEW JERSEY, ARE YOU FUCKING BRAINDEAD? MORTGAGE FRAUD IS A 4 TRILLION DOLLAR A YEAR INDUSTRY, DO YOU THINK THAT 103 YEAR OLD COBAINS WHO HAVE LIVED AT ONE ADDRESS FOR 103 YEARS EXIST?
do you? do YOU? 4 TRILLION A YEAR INMORTGAGE FRAUD. DO YOU UNDERSTAND?
-From Courtney Love’s MySpace Blog
I always wonder if Courtney’s just a terrible writer, on new drugs, or if she’s truly, deeply stupid. I think the last option would be the worst. I’d really rather prefer she be on drugs than actually this stupid. This is her entire rant. Nothing is cut out – Love just assumes that we know what the hell she’s talking about.
My first question for Courtney is, “HAVE YOU EVER READ A BOOK?” Have you? Ripping out the paper from one to roll it to snort your cocaine doesn’t count. Shouldn’t she have an assistant or something? Someone to keep her from typing? And erase her old cracked out blogs? Obviously she’s under a lot of stress, and I cannot even imagine what it would feel like to lose $73 million. Especially knowing that money was supposed to go to her daughter. I’d imagine it would feel like a personal failure. But there are about three thousand better ways to deal with it than this.
It’s like Courtney is absolutely insisting on ruining any teeny, tiny ounce of credibility she might have. Not credibility in Hollywood or in the music industry. But just as a rational human being. I feel so sorry for Francis Bean. Her memoirs are going to be insane.

Blake Lively: "Gossip Girl Is Ruining My Film Career"
Posted on 17. Mar, 2009 by CSS.
Blake Lively says Gossip Girl is holding her back from further pursuing her film career.
(Of course, because The Sisterhood of the Traveling Pants was such a blockbuster.)
Blake Lively says Gossip Girl has prevented her from launching serious career in film because of it’s demanding shooting schedule. The blonde beauty, who plays Serena on the popular CW drama, insists that she’s so busy with the tapings for the hit series that she can’t accept any movie offers coming her way.
“We shoot nine months out of the year, so there are so many films I can’t do,” Blake explains. “On my latest movie I would go and take a day off from Gossip Girl in New York and go to Connecticut and shoot that and then come back the next day. And they don’t really like to share you.”
Katherine Heigl Jr. here needs to be grateful to have a job; meanwhile 12 1/2 million Americans are unemployed. Is it Gossip Girl that’s holding Blake back, or a lack of talent? Be happy you have steady work!

‘W’ Magazine’s Interview With Luanne deLesseps, THE COUNTESS!
Posted on 15. Mar, 2009 by CSS.
Okay, so I cant stand the ladies of ‘Real Housewives of New York!’ However, I also can’t stop watching! Its like each week I get to see these ladies make complete fools of themselves on national television- which is too good to pass up!
It is amazing to me to see how entitled these ladies think that they are- I’m pretty sure they assume everyone is overwhelmed with jealousy that they are who they are- when in fact i pity these ladies! To go through life on such a high horse… there is no where to fall but down “My Darlings!!”
So when I came across this article in “W” I had to throw it up on my site! W Magazine snagged a 3 minute interview with The Countess herself, Luann deLesseps, where they grill her on her new book, “Class with the Countess”-try not to laugh, it is the real title! Check it out:
Did you enjoy the book-writing process?
I’ve always wanted to write a book. And people have always asked me to do one, too, because it’s every girl’s dream to become a countess. You’ve seen it? What do you think?
Well, I have to say I’m confused as to the target audience. You’re really covering the waterfront from teen stuff and parent-teacher conferences to adviceon landing a hubby.
The target is the audience for the show. It was inspired by my audience — my fan base, really. So that’s the 18 to 49 crowd. I had a lot of questions and requests: “Please write about manners for children,” “write about countesses,” “write about dating.” So I did a little bit of everything. And I wanted it to feel like my personal story at the same time.So viewers actually ask you nitty-gritty questions about which fork to use at dinner?
No. The questions are more about how to do things appropriately — how to dress, how to deal with their kids and manners, how to deal with certain social situations. I have an “Ask the Countess” column on the Bravo website, and people write me.
But you still felt it was important to get the table etiquette in there? Because I have to say, your daughter and her friends did not seem to appreciate all that in the episode at the Hampton Classic. Your daughter was a little, “Hey Mom, back off…”
It was edited to look a certain way. It was a long lunch, we were watching the show-jumping, we were talking — they really did have a great time. But they were all excited to be on the show, and then [the cameras] got there and they just froze. And I don’t think that joke I made about “You don’t want anyone to think you have an eating disorder” worked very well. [Laughs.] Oh well, it all winds down to the editing.You and Kelly [Killoren Bensimon, the newest castmember] seem to have hit it off.
[Laughs again. Loudly.] Poor thing, did you see the papers today? [Killoren Bensimon was charged this week for allegedly assaulting her much-younger boyfriend.] But yes, we hang out on the show more than probably the others do.Why so?
We have friends in common so we move in the same social circles. I’m the only one she really knew when she decided to do the show. I think when she’s with the other women it’s awkward. I have to do a lot of teasing to get her to loosen up a little. It’s all new to her.This season, it’s as if all the personality quirks and neuroses have been magnified about 100 times.
I feel that’s happened with me, too. They’ve caught every “Countess Moment” I could possibly have, you know? Which I never have. Like when I ordered pizza as the Countess. I said “LuAnn de Lesseps” and he didn’t understand, so I said “Countess” for the fun of it. And you know how at the beginning of each show I say don’t feel guilty about being privileged? What I said was, “I never feel guilty about being privileged, I feel lucky.” But they just whack off the “lucky” part. Editing.
You mentioned the Bravo website earlier. Ever read the message boards?
I don’t read the blogs anymore. I just get … I take things personally. So I don’t even want to go there because I know there’s a whole Countess-bash thing going on. And Bethenny is now “the poor girl” — and she’s making more money than all of us put together with all the deals she’s doing! She cleans up because she doesn’t have a husband, she doesn’t have children. That seems to be her M.O. this season.
There’s definitely a round-robin punching bag thing going on.
There really is. It’s like, “Your turn this week!” I sit there watching and say, “What am I gonna see this week?” Once the crews have left us, I don’t know what the heck they’ll do.
-From W Magazine
It is absolutely hilarious to me that Luann blames all of this on editing!! Um what about last year? My favorite was how she instructed Bethenny to introduce her to the driver by calling her ‘Countess’ and added that you do not mingle with the help in such ‘familiar’ ways. Nice Luann! If you didn’t always act a certain way, then their wouldn’t be footage of you to edit in that light! I can’t believe she thinks anyone will actually want to buy this book!
I love that she gives advice on dating- seeing as how she married herself off to an older man at 22! She must have a wealth of knowledge on that subject!
If your bored and up for a good laugh, head on over to Luann’s website and check out her Blog- it’s filled with laugh out loud moments!
Check out this story from NYMag.com that details Classy Luann getting Trashy at a friends wedding last August!
Thanks for the entertainment Countess LuLu!
Sidenote: Fun Facts about the New York Housewives:
For their first season, Bravo only paid the ladies $8,000 each to appear on the reality series. However, for season two the salary is said to have gone up a just a bit-no word on exactly how much!
The ladies ages(Reportedly):
- Luann de Lesseps: Rumored to be 43-44
- Bethenny Frankel: December 1970, making her 38
- Alex McCord: October 1, 1973 making her 35
- Ramona Singer: Allegedly November 18, 1956 making her 51
- Jill Zarin: November 30, ???? Is rumored to be 45 However, her official Myspace page lists her as 33… Hmmm…sneaky!
