Clooney’s Crash

George Clooney is in a world of hurt this morning. Though, I’m not quite sure what is causing him the most pain-—his freshly fractured rib or the prospect that he has potentially ended the career of his Las Vegas cocktail waitress girlfriend. For those of you who don’t already know (despite it being broadcast on all the major networks and every cable news channel out there) the 46-year-old actor and his gal pal Sarah Larson were involved in an accident yesterday in New Jersey. According to police, Clooney was driving his Harley-Davidson on a busy street in Weehawken late Friday … Continue reading

Michael Phelps Takes New Girlfriend Home for Thanksgiving

So much for dating beauty pageant contestants and having flings with fellow Olympic swimmers. These days Michael Phelps is hanging with the real deal—-a girl worthy enough to bring home to mama.

The Olympic champion reportedly met the 26-year-old Las Vegas cocktail waitress at the Palms Casino Resort’s Moon Nightclub where she works and where Phelps has been perfecting his card game in preparation for the 2009 World Series of Poker.

Did you hear the one about the gorgeous country music singer, who gets dumped by her pro football player boyfriend, then hooks up with a real-life doctor, who shot to fame on a reality TV show and is now starring in a syndicated talk show?

So This is Why They Split

Yes, I know he doesn’t know I am alive. And yes, I know that even if he did it’s unlikley that he would give me more than the time of day (if that).

George Clooney the Peacemaker

In 1997 George Clooney starred in a movie with Nicole Kidman called “The Peacemaker.” In the film Kidman plays a nuclear expert and Clooney a Special Forces Intelligence Officer. Both are called to investigate a train crash in Russia that includes a nuclear payload, only neither Clooney nor Kidman’s characters believe the crash was an “accident.” It was a sleeper of a movie, but its title is quite fitting to describe the role Clooney is now playing in the real life drama that involves two rival Hollywood actors unions. The handsome star is pleading with the warring factions to put … Continue reading

George Clooney—–Peace Keeper

He has been called many a name in his lifetime (most of the negative ones came courtesy of Fabio), but George Clooney says “peace keeper” is not one he is referred to very often.

George Clooney Defends Britney Spears

George Clooney doesn’t have much to say about Britney Spears’ parenting skills (or lack there of), but he is coming to her defense regarding the way the paparazzi hounds her. The former “ER” hunk went public with harsh remarks aimed at the paparazzi during a recent interview with news reporters. Last week the 46-year-old actor pulled off to the side of an L.A. street while he was riding his motorcycle with his girlfriend, Sarah Larson.

Celebrity Updates: Fabio vs. George Fallout and “Hannah Montana” Sky High Ticket Prices

George Clooney is a “low-class scumbag.” At least according to the famous longhaired literary lover Fabio. As you’ll recall from my previous blog, the actor (best known for his role in those butter substitute commercials) and movie star George Clooney recently got into a scuffle at a Beverly Hills restaurant after the former “Facts of Life” star allegedly insulted some of Fabio’s female companions. The romance novel icon stunned diners at the upscale eatery when he exchanged fighting words with Clooney before both men started to get unflatteringly physical with each other. Now Fabio is going on the record, defending … Continue reading
