Eminem Leaves MTV Movie Awards in Disgust

What could have possibly happened to make rapper Eminem race out acrossed the porcelain tile at the MTV Movie Awards?

Well…after performing his single “We Made You” and “Crack A Bottle” from his hit album Relapse, some odd things happened. Not long after his performance, he stormed away from his seat at the auditorium when Sacha Baron Cohen, in a barely-visibly thong as his flamboyant character Brüno, descended like an angel and landed face down in the rapper’s lap.

Let’s just say he was not amused. The body guards pounced and Eminem’s entourage made its exit in what was the most outrageous moment on a night.

I’m sure some sort of foul mouthed response is coming ;) .

Susan Boyle Finishes Second on Britain’s Got Talent

If you haven’t seen what over 65 Million viewers have already seen on Youtube take a look here (Sorry, all these videos have disabled embedding, unfortunately. At least with the electronics I have available. ).

Susan Boyle captured the hearts of the world after that performance on Britain’s Got Talent a couple months back, but was not blessed with the win. Instead she lost to a dancing group known as “Diversity”. Tkae a look at one of their performances here (Again, embedding disabled).

If you like that sort of thing there was another highly acclaimed dance group this season called “Flawless” who you can peep here.

During her finals performance, Boyle looked polished, wearing a sparkling, floor-length gown. She returned to the song that made her an internet sensation — “I Dreamed A Dream” from “Les Miserables.”

The winners earned a 100,000 pound ($159,000) prize and the chance to perform before Queen Elizabeth II at the Royal Variety Show.

Boyle won’t go away empty handed I’m sure, as I have read in the past that she was negotiating a contract with Simon Crowell and Sony BMG. So you will ahve plenty of opportunity to hear her sing again.

Britney Spears Feels Like and Old Person Now

In a recent interview with Rolling Stone on Britney’s latest comeback she stated that she felt like she was an “old person” now.

“I feel like an old person now,” she says one afternoon, as a manicurist applies rhinestones and girly pink lacquer to her chewed-up nails. “I do! I go to bed at, like, 9:30 every night, and I don’t go out or anything, you know what I mean? I just feel like an old fart.”

How endearing. I’m sure we are all very convinced that she is living the life of an old lady. Clearly she will be sending out her wedding invitations soon and living the life of a laid back family girl. That is until we see her dancing naked in a club or something.

The interview itself just sounds like the spin she was able to pull off when she first came onto the scene. She was a “virgin” then apparently, and had people believing that she was just an innocent little girl. It worked and she became a superstar. Sounds like she is trying to go back to those days of innocence, but says that her album is a “little dirty”.

Spears has always been like this: silly, sweet, humble. She has never been very articulate, but she always tries to be accommodating. Tonight, she’s listening to mixes and finishing work on a track called “Lace and Leather.” When I ask how she knows if a song is going to be a hit, she says, “You just hear it, and you’re like, oh, my God, if somebody else takes this song, you’re gonna kill yourself, you know what I mean? Like, this one I’m doing tonight, I think it’s good, and it’s, like, really quirky and different and girly.”

“A little naughty,” says her manager, Larry Rudolph, 45, sitting nearby in a T-shirt and jeans.

“A little naugh-tay,” Spears agrees, sounding half-embarrassed.

Travis Barker released from Hospital

Travis Barker, former Blink 182 drummer was released from the hospital this weekend, almost one month after he was first hospitalized with severe burns following his escape from a Lear jet crash, which killed four in Columbia, S.C.

Barker wrote on his Myspace (lol Myspace) blog Thursday that he would be getting out soon and he now is. Get your own website dude. Surely you can afford it along with your own server and a memory upgrade for your laptop.

“Just another quick one to let everyone know that I think I’m getting out of the hospital soon,” he wrote. “I can’t wait to get out of here and be home with the babes. The doctors say I’m healing up quickly and I’m gonna be out of here b4 you know it.”

Barker wrote that a host of friends stopped by the hospital to visit, including Yoko from Matsuhisa, who “brought some food in for us.”

“She’s such a sweetheart and so nice to take the time to bring me some rad food,” Barker blogged.

On Wednesday night, DJ AM, who also survived the crash, made his first official appearance since the incident, opening for Jay-Z at the Hollywood Palladium.

Tragic Twist to Barker/DJ AM Plane Crash

In an update just minutes ago, TMZ is reporting that Travis Barker was willing to do anything short of trying to buy the moon to get his assistant Cris Baker to his wife.

Travis Barker’s assistant wanted to get home in time for his pregnant wife to give birth. :(

We’ve now learned why Barker and his friends decided to get on that doomed Learjet in South Carolina late last night, and the explanation can only be described as a horribly cruel twist of fate.

It all started some time yesterday, when Barker’s assistant, Chris Baker, told the guys that his wife was going into labor. Barker told him that he would do everything in his power to get Baker back to the hospital in time.

The quickest way back to Van Nuys was that Learjet. We’re told Barker usually won’t fly on private jets, but made an exception for what was supposed to be one of the happiest moments of Baker’s life.

The plane crashed shortly after midnight, killing four people — including Chris Baker. Baker’s wife went into labor early this morning.

Terrible, terrible story. What should have been the best day of their lives turns into one of the worst. Having their baby born the day his father dies is just heart breaking. :(

Travis Barker and DJ AM Expected to Have Full Recovery

Don’t know how many of you had heard about this (I didn’t when it happened), but yesterday Travis Barker and DJ AM were passengers on plane that crashed, critically injuring them and killing four others. The plane carrying six people attempted to take off shortly before midnight Friday from Columbia, South Carolina when people in the tower report seeing sparks. They said the plane went off the runway and crashed on a highway embankment, catching fire.

Barker, and DJ AM were said to be in critical condition after the crash, although the worst of it was that the other four passengers died.

Today it is reported that both DJ AM, and Travis Barker, ex-drummer for the band Blink 182, will have full recoveries. Dr. Fred Mullins, medical director of the Joseph M. Still Burn Center, said both Travis and Adam suffered second and third-degree burns. Mullins said Barker’s torso and Adam’s hands and part of his head were burned, but they will be OK.

The people at TMZ are using their treadmills experience to try and run down the rest of the story with their patented “story developing” line at the end.

L’Oreal denies lightening Beyonce’s skin in ad

Does Political Correctness know no bounds? Are we to the point that we are accusing companies of lightening model’s skin color for ads is going to become common?

Apparently people seem to think that L’Oreal lightened Beyonce Knowle’s skin color in their ads featuring her.

“We highly value our relationship with Ms. Knowles. It is categorically untrue that L’Oreal Paris altered Ms. Knowles’ features or skin tone in the campaign for Feria hair color,” the Paris-based company said in a statement sent to the Associated Press Thursday.

The ad is in the September issues of Elle, Allure and Essence on stands now.

TMZ is making something out of nothing IMO. It’s all the lighting.

The Cheerleader’s First Single, Hayden Panettiere


Hayden Panettiere doesn’t have anything better to do I guess than try to fill up our flash memory cards with music. The Heroes Hottie released the single below this week entitled ‘Wake Up Call’.

Can’t say I like it as I hate pop music. Not sure exactly what she is going for here. Reggae Pop? Is that a genre of music? Who the hell knows these days. Scratching a Chalkboard may be more appropriate.

Britney Spears and Madonna X-Rated Video


Apparently Madonna and Britney didn’t get close enough when they were making out at the MTV Video Awards a few years back. According to The Sun, Madonna and Britney will be together again on Madonna’s next tour.

From what that says they will be wrapped in bandages and unwrapped by some dudes in tight pants to show them wearing almost nothing. This tactical gear will be just something like a few strips of clothing and thigh high boots.

An on-set source revealed: “It’s absolutely classic Madonna. Probably the raunchiest stuff she has ever done. It leaves nothing to the imagination and will be very controversial.

“Britney and Madonna are unwrapped like mummies, to appear together almost naked apart from tiny leather bondage pants and knee-high boots.

Now…15 years ago this may have been exciting when it came to Madonna. Today? Not so sure. Britney? Bah…never really been a fan of her look either. As a blogger? Well…that’s a completely different story ;) .
