Mr. Superstitious Weds

Here’s what I don’t get… it has been widely reported that San Antonio Spurs’ Tony Parker is so incredibly superstitious that he insisted that he and his new bride Eva Longoria be married on 7-7-07. Only, as it turns out the couple’s civil ceremony–the one that essentially legally sealed the deal for the two high profile stars–took place on July 6th in a stuffy chamber at Paris City Hall. It’s true; French law does require a civil ceremony even when couples marry in a church, but why not simply complete both on the same day if the date matters so … Continue reading →

Weighing in on Lightweights in Hollywood

Eva Longoria says she is fat, but there’s a reason. The “Desperate Housewives’” star is not expecting a baby, but her TV character has two kids and could be adding more in the future. Okay, I have to stop there. Are you rolling your eyes at the idea that the teeny tiny actress is being called out in the media about her new slightly fuller figure? If going from a size zero to a size one or two is getting “fat” then women around the world are in serious trouble. For those of you who don’t watch the popular ABC … Continue reading →

Fans of ABC’s hit show “Desperate Housewives” will have to wait a couple more months before the truth behind the whole flash-forward plot twist is revealed.

Let that be a spoiler alert for you diehard fans who don’t want to know what next season has in store for the ladies of Wisteria Lane. Revelation #1—-Mike Lives Actor James Denton recently revealed to reporters that … Continue reading →

Rapper to Wed in Jail

Michele and I have blogged about a lot of celebrity weddings. There was the over the top wedding of Eva Longoria and Tony Parker in Paris. There was the extravagant wedding of Nicole Kidman and Keith Urban down under. And just this past week, there was the low key wedding of Beyonce and Jay-Z at his Tribeca penthouse apartment. But, I don’t think either of us have blogged about a wedding in prison – until now! Rapper Remy Ma (real name Remy Smith) is a Grammy nominated recording artist who just happens to be sitting in Rikers Island jail for … Continue reading →

Celebrity REAL or RUMOR: Eva Pregnancy and R.E.M. Singer’s Jury Duty

No, Desperate Housewives’ Eva Longoria-Parker isn’t expecting a baby. Rather, she says she’s just bloated. Or at least she was when paparazzi snapped a shot of her that has been making the rounds on the Internet under the headline: “Eva’s Pregnant!” You’ve got to love a star who denies a pregnancy rumor by insisting that the little extra bulge around her belly is just extra helpings of home cooking and not evidence of impending motherhood. “I’ve been cooking and eating, cooking and eating. I keep telling everyone that I’ve gained 10 pounds just being on strike,” Longoria-Parker told a band … Continue reading →

Writers’ Strike Hits “Desperate Housewives”

Oh sure, now the truth comes out. Prior to writers actually hitting the picket line yesterday, producers of popular primetime TV shows such as “Desperate Housewives,” “Two and a Half Men,” and “CSI” maintained their series’ wouldn’t be sent into reruns until January. Fat chance. Turns out production has already stopped on at least six sitcoms because of the Hollywood writers’ strike. According to studio heads, my favorite show of the new season “Back to You,” starring Kelsey Grammer and Patricia Heaton, will not return from a planned hiatus. Sniff. Sniff. Julia Louis-Dreyfus told TV’s “Entertainment Tonight” production has also … Continue reading →

The 43-year-old comedian and Arizona native told reporters after reading about the police officer’s death last month, he was “hit out of the blue” by the shooting and the fact that the officer had overcome cancer to return to duty. “It just struck me as such a rough situation just … Continue reading →
