Celebrity REAL or RUMOR: Brady to Wed Bundchen and Aniston Gets Scolded by Principal

Is supermodel Gisele Bundchen heading down the aisle with her football star boyfriend Tom Brady? According to New York newspapers, that’s not a RUMOR. The New York Post is reporting that the super rich couple has been meeting with party planners at the city’s legendary Tavern on the Green in Central Park to plan their wedding reception. The Brazilian beauty and her hunky boy toy, who is currently taking a break from the New England Patriots while he recovers from surgery, began dating in 2005. The couple’s relationship has been fodder for the tabloids from the start, mainly because it … Continue reading →

What Would Mike Myers Say?

Do you remember the towering sculpture of eight cars made famous in the movie “Wayne’s World?” (Click here to refresh your memory.) The Spindle a.k.a. the “Car Kabob” and the “Eight Car Pileup” has been a landmark in the Chicago suburb of Berwyn for nearly two decades. Each year thousands of tourist travel to the city to view the eyesore… I mean sculpture… that features eight cars from the 1960s, 1970s and 1980s skewered on a massive metal spike. The structure is covered with rust and bird droppings, yet residents in Berwyn say thanks to the 1992 comedy starring Mike … Continue reading →

“Sopranos” Star Speaks Out About Eating Disorder

In the wake of the Jennifer Love Hewitt body-issue controversy actress Jamie-Lynn Sigler is speaking out about the “private hell” she encountered while trying to live up to Hollywood’s beauty standards. The former “Sopranos” star says for years she refused to publicly discuss the experiences she went through as she coped with a devastating eating disorder because as she tells it she was a “different person.” “It’s hard for me to even recognize who I was,” the 26-year-old actress told reporters after reading about Hewitt’s bikini picture ordeal. “My reality was so warped. … I knew I had a problem … Continue reading →

A Baby Boy For Brady and Moynahan

At least he brought flowers… New England Patriots quarterback Tom Brady was seen entering a L.A. hospital yesterday carrying a massive bouquet of flowers. A couple hours later the announcement came that actress Bridget Moynahan (Brady’s ex-girlfriend) had given birth to a baby boy. “Mother and baby are doing well,” Moynahan’s publicist told reporters. For those of you who haven’t been following the drama surrounding this pregnancy here’s a quick synopsis. The 36-year-old stunning model-turned-actress split from the NFL quarterback last December after a 3-year relationship. Two months later she announced she was pregnant with his baby. By then Brady … Continue reading →

Who Says It Doesn’t Pay To Be Beautiful?

Apparently the bulk of the money I spend at Victoria’s Secret goes to pay their models. At least that is what I have surmised from glancing at Forbes.com’s list of the world’s richest models. The top grossing catwalker rakes in a cool $33 million a year. That honor goes to Brazilian supermodel Gisele Bundchen. Leo’s ex (and Tom Brady’s current flame… at least until Friday) blows away her leggy competition when it comes to making money. Frankly, I was a bit shocked by the fact that Bundchen made more than Kate Moss (who came in at No.2) and Heidi Klum … Continue reading →

Brit and Brady’s Bad Rap

In a previous blog I discussed the media flurry surrounding Britney Spears’ newest “baby”—-a $3,000 Yorkshire terrier. Now, just days after the pop princess succumbed to her puppy love and took the pooch home, big wigs from the People for the Ethical Treatment of Animals (PETA) are begging the singer to give the dog a better home (or at least to better owners). “Britney needs a new puppy about as much as Lindsay Lohan needs a drink,” PETA Vice President Dan Mathews recently told MSN Entertainment. “She can barely look after herself and her kids, and she’s tossed away so … Continue reading →

Rocker’s Dramatic Weight Loss

Have you seen the latest pictures of Courtney Love? They were prominently featured on all of the TV entertainment shows tonight. Most of the shots show the former Hole singer looking dramatically thin in a swimsuit strolling along a beach in Hawaii. According to Love’s website, she has dropped 44 pounds with “6 more maybe 11 more to go.” There’s one shot of her in a bikini that makes her look completely emaciated, but according to Love’s rep, the singer is dropping the weight in a “healthy way.” She reportedly is “following a macrobiotic diet, eating lots of vegetables and … Continue reading →

Tyra Banks Back In A Bikini

Recently I blogged about former super model Tyra Banks’ 20-pound weight gain and her in-your-face-finger-wagging rant to critics who called her “fat.” Now, Banks is sticking it to the tabloids yet again by modeling a bikini in this year’s Sports Illustrated swimsuit edition. In 1997, Banks became the first black supermodel to appear solo on the cover of the Sports Illustrated swimsuit edition wearing a skimpy bikini. This week the model-turned-talk-show-host is marking the modeling milestone by donning the decade-old bikini to celebrate the special anniversary. The 33-year-old recently flew to the Bahamas to recreate the shoot that earned her … Continue reading →

“Stop With The Fat Jokes”—Supermodel Tells Critics To Kiss Off

Did you see today’s episode of “The Tyra Banks Show?” Even if you didn’t, it’s likely you’ve seen the massive amount of press Banks has received regarding a single picture of her that has made the cover of tabloids around the world. The photo features the former supermodel in a bathing suit with the headline: “Tyra Porkchop.” Another magazine ran the photo of her under headlines that screamed, “America’s Next Top Waddle.” The unflattering photo of Banks was today’s featured topic on her talk show. Wearing the same bathing suit that prompted the mean-spirited headlines, Banks’ admitted she’d gained about … Continue reading →
