When are people going to learn that meeting someone on Twitter and then going to a hotel room with them has the potential to not end well? Marvin Turell Grant, better known as MC Hammer’s cousin Bigg Marv, was arrested today in Tracy, CA on suspicion of raping a woman he met through Twitter. I’m going to stay totally neutral on this story, as I have met Bigg Marv and MC Hammer on more than one occasion, and the family is close personal friends with close...  Read More »

Went to a blogger meetup tonight in Stockton, CA; I met a bunch of great people and learned about some cool stuff that – by some divine miracle – I’ve survived this long without. Now that I’m home, all the information is racing around in my brain trying to decide what to do. So I’ve decided to watch The Fast and the Furious, and do a little exploration on Wonkette – a humorous political blog I was told about at the meetup. I checked it out,...  Read More »

There’s not much I love more than crazy celebrities doing crazy things. And I’m not talking about wardrobe malfunction crazy – I’m talking balls against the wall crazy. You know, like Britney Spears in her head shaving days, and Lindsay Lohan – um – every day these days. Sometimes the celeb’s antics go a little too far and things start to get scary – like Britney strapped to the gurney – and the entertainment value of watching them goes down...  Read More »

I do not enjoy shopping for shoes. Period. You may think I’m a freak, but it’s true. I would rather eat brussel sprouts cooked in liver juice.

There are over 850 brands and 700,000 products to choose from, with the most up to date fashions, materials, and colors. Have...  Read More »

The latest news reports of a secret drug stash found in one of the singer’s closets, and paramedics knowing shortly after they arrived that he was dead – but not knowing right away that he was Michael Jackson.

Just a quick check in with why I haven’t posted in a few days. One of my grandmothers died on Monday and I’ve had a fairly hard time since – losing someone I love very much, plus dealing with my father (her son) with whom I really don’t have a relationship, didn’t exactly mix together to make a happy cake. My boyfriend and I went up to his mountain cabin when I got off work on Thursday and just now got back. There’s internet...  Read More »

There’s something about walking into a home with a beautiful Oriental or Persian rug that makes the home feel classy and elegant, yet comfortable and homey. Walking through those homes, I always thought that the rugs were bank breakers, and the home owners must have a heck of a lot of disposable income. But now I know better, because now I know about Rugman.com and its large selection of authentic hand-knotted Persian and Oriental rugs. Save up to 70% off...  Read More »

I’ve posted a lot of sad news lately, mostly due a whole lot of people dying – including a couple in my own family. But tonight I refuse to be sad, so here’s some happy news….. After almost a year of being ruled by a conservatorship with her father Jamie at the helm, Britney Spears could very well become a free woman in November. Coincidentally, that’s around the same time Britney’s Circus tour will be ending. It is being reported that Britney’s...  Read More »

There’s nothing surprising these days about hearing of a celebrity sex tape being released against the celeb’s will. But at least those celebrities knew the sex tape existed. A video of ESPN sportscaster Erin Andrews nude in her hotel room has hit the internet – nothing too shocking there I suppose. Except not only was Erin unaware of the filming, the video was shot through her hotel room peephole! First of all, I thought peepholes were one way? How does...  Read More »

An eclipse is coming! An eclipse is coming! Too bad basically half the world won’t be able to see it. Unless they watch a solar eclipse 2009 live webcast, that is.

Leaving American Idol, silly, not the Psych ward – Paula Abdul will never leave kooky town. Paula Abdul’s new manager David Sonenberg says the American Idol judge is not happy with the way things are going and she just might not be back next season. “Very sadly, it does not appear that she’s going to be back on Idol, I find it under these circumstances particularly unusual; I think unnecessarily hurtful.

On this day in 1988, actor Michael J. Fox and actress Tracy Pollan exchanged vows under a tent in a very private ceremony at the West Mountain Inn wooded hillside in Arlington, Vermont. In his autobiography Lucky Me: A Memoir, Michael J. Fox says about the wedding: “… it was a great wedding, a tremendous success … we paid for our privacy in the coin of bad press … It was a price well worth paying because it enabled us in a single moment...  Read More »

I’ve been doing this blog for a little over three years now, and in that time the one thing that I’ve learned to be an absolute truth, is that no matter what you say about Michael Jackson, someone somewhere will be offended and swear you to Hell. If I had a dollar for every time a Michael Jackson fan when loco on me for saying something about their beloved MJ, I’d be able to afford a nice long vacation. Don’t get me wrong, I totally get why there are...  Read More »
