Mary Kate denies pregnancy rumors

Mary Kate denies pregnancy rumors

Mary Kate Olsen gained a little weight, and now rumors are running wild that she is pregnant.

However, her representative told US Weekly that the pregnancy rumors are false.  The rumors started when Mary Kate began to gain a few pounds.  Her weight ballooned to a whopping 102 pounds.

That’s right. She’s no longer a stick figure.  She no longer weights 45 pounds. She’s now up to 102 pounds.

If she keeps on eating, she will be up to a normal 125 pounds, which is where she needs to be anyway.  Good luck Mary Kate. You can do it.

90210 star Shenae Grimes denies eating disorder

Shenae Grimes

Super-skinny actress Shenae Grimes is denying rumors that she is suffering from an eating disorder.

In interview with People magazine, the new 90210 star said, “I really can’t help what someone thinks of me because they are reading a paper and choosing to believe it.  It’s so frustrating.  Meet me in person, and you can’t say anything. No bones sticking out.  This is me.  This is my body. I have accepted it.”

Ouch! It sounds like somebody woke up on the wrong side of the bed this morning. If someone thinks your skinny, she should take it as a compliment. It’s better than somebody saying you’re too fat.

Besides, it should be easy for her to squash those eating disorder rumors. All she has to do is start eating a couple of cheeseburgers in front of the paparazzi while they’re photographing you.

Desperate Housewives star Jesse Metcalfe injured after falling from a nightclub balcony

jesse metcalfe

It looks like Desperate Housewives star Jess Metcalfe doesn’t know how to party in a safe manner.

Metcalfe was hospitalized after falling at a  nightclub from a balcony that was two-stories tall.  Metcalfe was Monaco to host the World Music Award.

According to People magazine,  Metcalfe was at a club in Monaco sitting on the edge of the balcony when he fell backwards and landed on the ground 30 to 40 feet below.Metcalfe was released from the hospital shortly after, and it looks like there will be no long term damage, but he did fracture his fibular.

His spokesperson said, “To have fallen that distance and not have any major injuries was a miraculous escape.  It was a very scary experience for him and those of us who saw him. It was a nasty fall. He was found face down on the floor.  It could easily have been fatal.”

I recommend that he start taking some gymnastics, dancing, yoga or ballet classes to help him improve his coordination so he can stop being so clumsy.

He was at a nightclub when this incident occur, so it’s no telling whether he had too much to drink or if he was just plain clumsy.

Britney Spears’ son Jayden was released from the hospital late Monday night (Nov. 10).

He was taken to a Southwest Mississippi Regional Medical Center on Sunday afternoon after he had an allergic reaction from something that he ate. I’m glad the little tot is okay.

I just wish I knew what he ate so that I can make sure to avoid it myself.


Isiah Thomas overdosed on sleeping pills

Isiah Thomas

All Isiah Thomas wanted was a good nights sleep. 

The former NBA star was hospitalized for overdosing on sleeping pills.  According to MSNBC, he was unconscious when medical workers transported him to the hospital. 

Last season he was fired as head coach for the New York Nicks after he was found guilty of sexually harassing a former employee. 

Maybe he took the sleeping pills so he can escape his problems, or maybe he took the pills because he was tired and he wanted to sleep…forever.

American Idol contestant says Simon Cowell made her drug addiction worse

Nikki McKibbinNikki McKibbin

Season one American Idol contestant Nikki McKibbin says she used to be a drug addict and an alcoholic, and she suffereed from depression, and Idol judge Simon Cowell is to blame.

In an interview with US Weekly, McKibbin says Simon’s cruel comments affected her.

She said, “I came out of Idol with a lack of self-confidence. I think I had my first solo in school when I was 5, and I got more as I got older: That’s the biggest compliment in choir. I had never been told I wasn’t good enough. Having to hear it for so many weeks from Simon Cowell killed me inside. I couldn’t get the s–t he had said to me out of my head. It drove me deeper into my depression. I wouldn’t say that this was Simon’s fault. It just added to the addict that I already was.”

McKibbin placed third on the first season of American Idol. She did receive alot of harsh criticism from Simon, but she wasn’t the only one. Simon is harsh toward alot of contestants.

Although Simon’s comments are usually cruel, he is not responsible for any of her addictions. I think she might be using him as an excuse.

Nancy Reagan injured

Nancy Reagan injured

Former First Lady Nancy Reagan broke her ass.  Literally, she did. 

According to the Associated Press, Nancy suffered a fall in her home and was hospitalized with a broken pelvis.

This is the second time this year, that the former first lady has been hospitalized due to a fall.  She also fell back in February and broke her hip.

Here’s my question. Where is the Secret Service guys throughout all of this? She is a former first lady, so therefore, she has Secret Service protection for the rest of her life.

We all know that Secret Service guys are around you constantly, and they never let you out of their sight. So where were they all those times Nancy was falling to the ground?

I guess none of them could extend and arm to catch her fall. Or maybe they were just on break.  No one likes to work when they’re not on the clock.

Janet Jackson is resuming her tour

Janet Jackson is resuming her tour

Janet Jackson’s tour is back on track.

After canceling several tour dates during the past few weeks due to an “illness,” Janet (Miss Jackson if ya nasty) will resume her tour Oct. 11 in Uncasville, Connecticut.

Unless she gets sick again and decides to cancel more shows, she is on track to perform in Tulsa at the Bank of Oklahoma Center on Oct. 26.


LeAnn Rimes cancels concerts

LeAnn Rimes cancels concerts

Janet Jackson isn’t the only person who has been canceling concerts left and right.

Country singer LeAnn Rimes recently canceled two more concerts because of some problems she was having with her vocal chords.

She recently pulled out of an Oct. 10 concert in Norfolk, Virginia and an Oct. 17 show in Lake Charles, Louisiana. This will be LeAnn’s eighth concert that she canceled.

Maybe her and Janet should get together and have a joint pity party for themselves.


David Duchovny completed his sex addiction rehab

David Duchovny completed his sex addiction rehab

David Duchovny has finished his sex addiction rehab. The “Californication” star voluntarily entered rehab for his sex addiction in August.

Duchovny is married to actress Tea Leoni, and they have two kids.

His lawyer released a statement saying that Duchovny has left the facility and he’s getting ready to film a movie.

I wonder what the terms of his post sex rehab are. Does he have to go sex-less for the rest of his life? Does he have to reduce the number of times he has sex, like only once a week instead of five times a week?

Although he is married, I think he should probably become celibate for the rest of his life because we wouldn’t want him to relapse and end up back in rehab again.

On a serious note, I’d really like to wish him full recovery and a congratulations on successfully completing the sex addiction rehab program. Hopefully he’s learned his lesson, and he will stop having sex :)

Singer Janet Jackson (Miss Jackson if ya nasty) has canceled three more concerts. She canceled the show in Greensboro (North Carolina), Atlanta and Fort Lauderdale due to an illness.

It’s speculated that she is suffering from exhaustion. This is will be six shows that Janet has canceled because of this “illness.”

Janet was hospitalized on Monday before a show in Montreal after she became ill during rehearsals.

She is scheduled to perform at Oct .26 at the Bank of Oklahoma Center in Tulsa, and this will be the first time that she has performed in Oklahoma in a couple of decades.

But something tells me that she might end up canceling that show too. No, I don’t have inside information on that. I’m just going with my gut feeling.

Good news for Travis Barker fans.  The rock star has been released from the hospital, according to MTV.

Adam Goldstein, aka DJ AM, who also was traveling in the plane with Barker was released a few days ago.  Six people were on board the plane when it crashed Sept. 20.

The two celebrities (Barker and Goldstein) survived the crash, but the four non-celebrities were killed.

As I said in a previous blog, I still find it strange how the two celebrities survived, but all of the non-celebrities died.  Celebrities sure must be invincible.

hmmmm….Maybe celebrities really are invincible.

Rapper DMX was hospitalized

Rapper DMX was hospitalizedRapper DMX was hospitalized

Rapper DMX was hospitalized for an unknown reason, according to his lawyer Bradford Cohen.

Some people were speculating that he thought he was having a stroke, however, the lawyer wouldn’t confirm that.

The lawyer said “It was serious enough for him to be brought and taken into a treatment facility.

What’s ironic is that he just happened to mysteriously enter the hospital one day before he was scheduled to make a court appearance to face drug and animal cruelty allegations.

I’m not suggesting that he is faking an illness. I’m just saying it looks suspicious that he gets sick one day before his court appearance.

I don’t know. Maybe he’s scared of going to jail so he started hyperventilating and went to the hospital instead.

Lil Wayne postpones concert for emergency surgery

Lil Wayne

My colleague at The Oklahoman Brandy McDonnell reported that Lil Wayne has postponed his Tulsa concert at the BOK Center.

Click here to read the story.

The rapper was scheduled to perform tonight at the BOK Center, but backed out of the concert claiming that he had to undergo emergency dental surgery. The new date will be Oct. 11.

This doesn’t surprise me at all. As you can see from the photo above, Lil Wayne is notorious for blinging up his teeth.

He’s had so much work done on his teeth. They change shapes, colors and sizes at least once a week. No wonder he is having problems with them.
