Paris Hilton Takes On John McCain
Posted by Robin Paulson Categories: Movies, Music, Television, Style, Legal Issues, Rivalries, Videos, Features,
John McCain and Barack Obama have taken on many issues, policies, and politicians in their day, yet I’m not sure that they can handle what has come next for them. In fact, they just might want to team up to take on this very powerful common enemy that has ostentatiously made herself known: Paris Hilton.
The infamous heiress recently released a spoof video (seen after the jump) as a response to John McCain’s recent political ad, in which Paris makes an unauthorized appearance. I would, too, if my family donated a few million dollars to his campaign and my face ended up in his commercial without my consent!
In the video, Paris pokes fun of the “wrinkly” senator as well as his opponent and herself, suggesting that she run for president and paint the White House pink, among other things.

If you’ve been trying to keep up with Katie Holmes’ latest hairstyle, it’s time to hit your stylist once again.
The actress who’ll be making her Broadway debut in All My Sons next month, showed off her shorter tresses in New York this week. Maybe she wanted to spend more time rehearsing and less time in front of the mirror?
So what do you think of Katie’s new look? Are you kind of missing her Joey Potter days?

UPDATE: The actor, who is reportedly in good spirits now, is suffering from a broken shoulder, broken elbow and shoulder damage.
As they say, bad luck comes in threes.
First there was Heath Ledger’s death. Then there was Christian Bale’s arrest. Now we’re learning of a serious accident for The Dark Knight‘s Morgan Freeman.
According to the Mississippi Highway Patrol, the actor and one other passenger were involved in rollover accident late last night. A vehicle the Oscar winner was driving reportedly left the roadway and flipped several times. Although the circumstances are still being investigated, it is not believed that drugs or alcohol were in any way involved.
Freeman - who was was heard talking and joking at the scene - was flown to the Regional Medical Center in Memphis where the 71-year-old is listed in serious condition. No status has been given for the other patient who was also airlifted.

Reese Witherspoon and Jake Gyllenhaal Deny Engagement
Posted by Veronica Santiago Categories: Movies, Engagements, Rumors,
Over the weekend, the Daily Mail caused a stir when they announced that Reese Witherspoon and Jake Gyllenhaal would soon be married. According to the British paper, The Prince of Persia star reportedly told friends he was getting married sometime around his birthday (December 19).
“He told me he had proposed several times but she kept telling him she wanted to give their relationship more time. When he asked her again a couple of weeks ago, she finally said yes,” said the source.
Unfortunately, the lovebirds dashed our hopes when they quickly denied the nuptial news. In a statement given to People, reps for both stars said the story was simply a rumor. “They are not engaged, getting married or any of the reports.”
Okay - so while I wait for Ryan and Rachel to reunite, could someone please make sure to get these two moving along?

Conflicting Reports About Bernie Mac’s Health
Posted by Veronica Santiago Categories: Movies, Television,
UPDATE: As of August 7, Bernie is reportedly in stable condition and “responding well to treatment.”
Bernie Mac, the former star of The Bernie Mac Show, has been hospitalized for several days now for a case of pneumonia. Unfortunately, reports on how the comedian is faring varies from source to source.
This weekend, a rep for the Ocean’s Eleven star denied reports that the star had passed away. Publicist Danica Smith claimed the 50-year-old was responding well to treatment and was expected to go home soon. But a post in yesterday’s Chicago Sun-Times tells an entirely different story. A source close to the family tells the newspaper that Mac (a.k.a. Bernard McCullough) is actually in “very, very critical” condition.
Back in 2004, production on Mac’s FOX series halted while he was being treated for sarcoidosis. The chronic disease, which he had been diagnosed with earlier in his life, can inflame tissues. Although his hospitalization at that time had pneumonia ties, Smith says her client’s current medical issue is not sarcoidosis-reated.
Whatever the story, we sincerely wish Bernie a speedy recovery.

Here they finally are. The two babies that have quickly made us forget that Jennifer Lopez also had twins.
In the upcoming issues of People and Hello!, Brangelina watchers will be getting more than their money’s worth. The two magazines will be devoting 19 and 17 pages, respectively, to Vivienne Marcheline and Knox Leon.
Although the newborns are only three weeks old, the two are already displaying their personalities. According to Brad, the babies are following along gender lines. “Viv is proving to resemble Ange in spirit, attitude and physicality… And Knox, he’s a bit of me.”

Lindsay Lohan Barks Back at LAPD’s Gay Remark
Posted by Robin Paulson Categories: Movies, Music, Television, Kind Acts, Legal Issues, Oops Videos, Paparazzi Videos, Oops Photos, Paparazzi Photos,
As celebrities like Eric Roberts, John Mayer, and Milo Ventimiglia pushed for a crack down on paparazzi laws earlier this week, LAPD Chief William Bratton shared his true feelings about the paparazzi to reporters:
“If you notice, since Britney started wearing clothes and behaving; Paris is out of town not bothering anybody anymore, thank God, and evidently, Lindsay Lohan has gone gay, we don’t seem to have much of an issue.”
Despite whether it’s true or not, Lindsay wasn’t too happy with the police chief’s remark, stating that “Police chiefs shouldn’t get involved in everyone else’s business when it comes to their personal life. It’s inappropriate.”
Surprisingly, I’d have to agree with her for once. At the same time, one can argue that she is one of the major contributing factors (along with Britney and Paris) in the rise of crazed paparazzi, yet Bratton, in my opinion, really had no right to say what he did as a police official.

After leaving Brangelina fans on the edge of their seats (myself included) for weeks without seeing their twins, the couple have decided that it is finally time to introduce them to the world.
Much to no one’s surprise, People magazine won the bidding rights to the twins’ photo shoot in the U.S. and Canada, and Hello! magazine won the international rights. Although there has been no official release as to the amount, sources have claimed the figure is around $14 million.
Compared to previous biddings on babies like their older sister Shiloh ($4 million) and Jennifer Lopez’s twins ($6 million), the Jolie-Pitt twins have definitely set a new record for costing a magazine so much.
