Kids Say Britney spears and Paris Hilton Should be on Naughty List


An online Poll taken by kids has shown that they believe Santa should fill Paris’, and Britney’s stockings with coal. Two of the wildest celebrities in recent memory have seen their share of time in court, rehab, and even jail in the last year. Kids say they shouldn’t get anything for Crhistmas except for coal.

By contrast Disney star Hannah Montana, played by country singer Billy Ray Cyrus’s daughter Miley, was overwhelming deemed the “nicest” celebrity among children aged 2 to 12 while actress Angelina Jolie was the choice for teenagers 13 to 17.

Pretty funny seeing Angelina voted to be “nicest”. Nicest ASS maybe if you asked me, and this is a “Teen” poll so yeah I assume that is the case. She probably needs and entre New York Moving Company just to get all the kids she is adopting, and having anywhere these days. I suppose those are the stories she has out now so it isn’t surprising she won “nicest” celeb.

Paris and Britney beat out some fictional villains in the poll as well. The two women beat out Swiper the Fox from the television show Dora the Explorer, the Grinch from the book “How The Grinch Stole Christmas” and Darth Vader from Star Wars among children 2-12.

For teens, Spears and Hilton topped Lindsay Lohan , who spent 84 minutes behind bars this year for a drunken driving and cocaine-possession conviction, and Beyonce.

When asked what makes someone nice, children mentioned “cleaning up and doing chores,” “sharing” and “being honest and polite” as ways to impress Santa.

On the flip side, they mentioned “not listening to parents,” “being mean and bullying” and “being snobby” as behaviors exhibited by those headed for the naughty list.

Cyrus Hopes Tenn. Can Get ‘Hannah’ Film

Almost bigger than Superbowl tickets at this point, Hannah Montana is bigger and bigger it seems.

Singer Billy Ray Cyrus wants his daughter’s upcoming “Hannah Montana” film to be shot in Tennessee, but state officials say they might not be able to offer the producers enough financial incentives.

“The thing of it is, Walt Disney really wants to film this movie in Tennessee,” Billy Ray Cyrus said.

Perry Gibson, executive director of the Tennessee Film, Entertainment and Music Commission, said the state could benefit from having the movie shot locally.

“It would mean a real impact on tourism and it would be a family friendly film that would come to the state,” she said. But Tennessee is limited in what incentives it can offer, she said. More info

McCartney’s Estranged Wife Berates Rich

Heather Mills McCartney, who is reportedly seeking millions of dollars in her breakup with Paul McCartney, denounced the world’s rich as misers and snobs Wednesday.

Sure…probably right after she just got back from her carnival cruises, shopping sprees in Rome, and driving around in her new BMW I assume.

“Sadly, you have to mix at a certain level of people to raise the level of funds you need to bring about the greater good,” she said. “Because people are very snobby. These people who have lots of money, they’re either snobby or they’re stingy. If you have lots of money, you have to be stingy – because why would you want that amount of money?”

She also compared herself to human rights crusaders down through the ages, suggesting they all had been victimized for their beliefs.

“If you look at every single person in the history of the world who has tried to make a difference, you’ll find a very long section of their lives where they were treated horrifically by the government or by the media,” she said.

Yeah…Ok then. Read more about this “poor” girl over at the AOL blog

Romantics in Guitar Hero Legal Battle

Unless you have been living under a rock the last few years you have probably heard of the game, Guitar Hero, which let’s anyone who can’t actually play a guitar feel like they can. The Romantics have decided to sue Activision Inc., the maker of “Guitar Hero,” saying the popular video game infringes on the band’s rights by featuring a soundalike recording of its 1980 hit “What I Like About You.”

The song is one of about 30 songs featured on “Guitar Hero Encore: Rocks the ’80s.” The band also is seeking an injunction that could take the best-selling game off store shelves. Which isn’t going to happen, because they will get paid off like they want anyways. I love how bands can sue for songs that sound sort of like their own and then get rewarded for it. Yeah…this is a rip-off, but changed enough that they can’t claim it can they? LOL

Just keep your eyes on your ebel watches as this is sure to be taken care of in a timely matter. </sarchasm>

Also, It is probably a good idea to snag this game right now isn’t it since it could be taken off shelves and be worth a bit of cash? I’m not saying it will be, but Guitar Hero Encore: Rocks the ’80s may very well have a nice history in the years to come if you can get it with that song on it still. Kind of like the old “Hot Coffee” edition of GTA. That one was worth about twice it’s retail value when it got pulled when it was sold on Ebay immediately after.

Seven of the nine surviving Munchkins from the 1939 movie were on hand to accept their honor on the Hollywood Walk of Fame. These Munchkins are thought to be the only living actors still that were in the original movie. Pretty amazing considering they are MUNCHKINS. Wonder what kind of miracle nutritional supplements these guys had their hands on eh?

The Munchkins finally got their just due after a 68-year wait according to AOL in their article ‘Wizard of Oz’ Munchkins Get Their Star.

“It feels great to be here,” said Jerry Maren, 88, waving a lollipop to mark his role in the movie as a member of the Lollipop Guild.

“With their joyous send-off for Dorothy as she began her journey down the Yellow Brick Road, the Munchkins secured their place in Hollywood history and in the hearts of movie fans everywhere,” wrote director George Lucas in a letter of support for the nomination.

Paris Hilton Visits Shanghai

American socialite Paris Hilton checked out Shanghai fashions, cuddled stuffed pandas and sauntered along the famous waterfront Bund on Thursday while visiting China’s most style-conscious city for the MTV Style awards. And hopefully she got some good life insurance quotes because I’m sure she will offend everyone there with her silly lifestyle.

“Shanghai looks like the future!” Hilton said in a news conference at the Hyatt on the waterfront, one of the newest landmarks in a city teaming with new skyscrapers. Yeah…what the hell does she know. Thanks publicist for giving me cue cards to read off of.

‘SNL’ Writers, Stars Stage a Fundraiser

Saturday Night Live stars have asked people to empty their checking accounts to help the staff that was affected by the Writer’s Guild strike Saturday.

The “SNL” cast and writers collaborated on staging the special “Saturday Night Live – On Strike!” event at the Upright Citizens Brigade Theatre to benefit the behind-the-scenes staff affected by the strike. The live performance was not officially sanctioned by NBC, but “SNL” executive producer Lorne Michaels, who celebrated his 63rd birthday, did attend.

“He came and saw it and laughed a little bit,” said Thompson.

“It was everything that’s never been on the show before,” cast member Kenan Thompson told The Associated Press after the show. “Sometimes it doesn’t get a chance to shine, but it sure shined here.” More on the SNL Strike

Hostel 2 Review


Haven’t been doing many reviews at all which is kind of silly since I have a Netflix account and watch about 4 movies a week. Just watched Hostel II the other day and figured I’d write a short review on it.

First off, I would suggest that anyone who hasn’t seen the original Hostel go there before they watch this one. It is far and away a better movie. When it comes to sequels I tend to hold the movie to a much higher standard than I did the first. The first Hostel was kind of a unique movie in that it was a sort of new type of story where backpackers in Europe are coerced into some sexy relationships by some hotties getting a nice pearl necklace and end up getting drugged and taken hostage by some rich fellas who like to let people pay them so that they can violently murder the poor backpackers.

Hostel IIis no different, except this time it is with chicks as the victims! That should be good news right off the bat eh? Well not really. When the girls are the stars one thing is pretty typical. Not as many nude scenes…haha There were a couple, but nothing to get excited about.

Anyways, the movie is almost exactly the same as the first, which from the outset is a big negative since you really want to see at least something new. The other thing is that although there is some pretty graphic violence the entire torture and kill part of the movie is pretty lame. The movie wasn’t suspenseful at all compared to the first. I swear the movie was as straight line as you could get and there was nothing in it that made you wonder what was going to happen. If there was a twist I certainly missed it.

The acting was “OK” I guess, but nothing incredible. I guess you can’t expect much from this type of movie anyways. It was directed by Quentin Tarantino so I guess if you are a big fan you will watch it anyways, but it certainly isn’t great work by him.

Prayer network aims to save celebrities handing out Bibles


Celebrities are a dispicable bunch and it has been decided that they need to be SAVED-UH! Britney Spears is the top prayer getter from the Hollywood Prayer Network, a group of more than 5,000 Christians that prays for stars instead of writing them off as lost causes. The network recently passed a Bible to socialite Paris Hilton and plans to pass one to Spears later this month. It also picks up-and-coming child stars for its monthly Kids Prayer Calendar and pairs hundreds of mentors with struggling actors — the kind more likely to take your order in a restaurant than appear on your television. Instead of helping people in real need like those that use assisted living software, this prayer network is focused on the celebs, and ironically the network members seem to be striving for the spotlight themselves by passing out these Bibles.

You can forget about those guys knocking on your door to talk to you about Jesus now for a while I hope. They may have their hand full with the celebrities. The people that really need it. Sigh…

Is Tom Cruise Washed Up?


With the recent release of the movie “Lions for Lambs” and its basic no-show in the box office opening weekend you have to wnder if he is done. It is pretty apparent that most people think he is sort of a whack job since he started spouting off about his cult religion Scientology and appears his rechargeable batteries for what he calls a brain are dead. Is this the effect that is showing in the box office, or are his newest movies just not that good?

‘Valkyrie,’ Cruise’s film about a Nazi officer who plots to kill Adolf Hitler, had its trailer leak on the Internet last week, and it has been met with less-than-stellar buzz. Take a look for yourself. Is it his terrible acting, bad movie choices, or his image?
