Jon Bon Jovi Opens up on Daughter’s Overdose
Posted by Andru Edwards Categories: Music, Drugs,
Jon Bon Jovi found out about his daughter Stephanie Bon Jovi's drug overdose in the "worst phone call ever."
The 51-year-old rocker was horrified when the 19-year-old college student was rushed to hospital in November after being found unresponsive in her dorm room at Hamilton College in Kirkland, New York.
"Worst phone call ever. Now she's doing great and I truly appreciate everyone's thoughts and prayers but in short, that problem is much more of a problem than I knew and I can't get over how many people have said 'My son, my daughter.' There is a lot of pressure on kids these days. I'm just blessed she's healthy and whole and we'll get through it," he told chat show host Katie Couric.
Jon previously admitted he and his wife Dorothea were devastated at the teenager's "sudden and steep decline" when drugs including heroin and marijuana were reportedly found in her room: "I didn't have any sisters. We bring home this girl the first day. Now what? Where's the manual? There was no manual. So you bring her up the best you can, you surround her with hugs and kisses and know that she may eventually fall down... I'm shocked as much as the next parent with this situation and had no idea. But then you surround them with best help and love and move on, and that's where we're at with it. Steph is a great kid... Cool school, Hamilton College up in Clinton, New York. Everything about it is idyllic. She was doing great. Then a sudden and steep decline."

Demi Lovato says her body issues began when she was three. The X Factor judge - who has spent time in rehab getting treatment for her eating disorder and self harming - admits she felt she was overweight from a very young age, and the insecurities have stayed with her.
"I remember being three years old in a diaper and rubbing my hand over my stomach ... and I remember thinking in my head, 'I wonder if one day this will ever be flat?'" she said on Katie.
The 20-year-old beauty - who has recently been named as the new ambassador of an anti-bullying campaign - was targeted at school as the girls used to tease her for her appearance. "It played more of a toll on me than if I was physically abused in school. I've always said I wished that they had just hit me in the face and gotten it over with because what they said to me sticks to me to this day and it affected me, (turned) me into the person I am today. I was bullied and they called me fat and they called me horrible things," she added.

Heidi Klum has confirmed she is dating her bodyguard. The 39-year-old model - who was accused by estranged husband Seal of cheating on him with Martin Kirsten, before claiming his quotes were taken out of context - admits she is in the early stages of getting to know him, but claims she trusts him because of their four year working relationship.
"I don't even know if I could call it [a relationship], you know, it has just started. I don't know, I don't know where it is going to go. Yes, yes, I've known him for four years and he's been with our family for four years. He's cared for our entire family, mostly for our four children. He's helped us tremendously, he's helped our children. I trust him with my children. We just got to know each other from a completely different side. I'm trying to think of my kids right now, I'm trying to protect them from all of this. I'm taking it one day at a time," she told Katie Couric on her show, Katie.

Dina Lohan Reacts to Glee Insults
Posted by K.C. Morgan Categories: Television, Child Stars, Rivalries,
Glee has never shied away from controversy. The show took some well-publicized flak for making comments about Lindsay Lohan during Gwyneth Paltrow’s guest-starring stint (“Lindsay Lohan is totally crazy, right?” and “How many times has Lindsay Lohan been to rehab?”) . . . but that doesn’t mean they’re going to pass up new jokes.
Two well-placed (and very funny) jokes aimed at Lindsay’s mom Dina Lohan on Sunday night have managed to get Linds, et al., riled up again. During the much-anticipated scene between Glee guest star Katie Couric and Jane Lynch (playing coach Sue Sylvester), the anchor told Sue that she is the Loser of the Year. Sylvester beat out Dina Lohan, Tiger Woods, the economy and also Dina Lohan’s dog Sparky Lohan, among others, to gain the title.
Dina has fired back with a rant given to E! News. “[Glee] has targeted everyone from gays to lesbians, Asians, disabled and each other . . . several groups are going after the producers, including mothers’ groups.”
She went on to say the “dance numbers are amazing,” but “the writers need to be nice and more creative as opposed to being hurtful.”
Some people just can’t take a joke. But we understand that the Lohans are finding little to laugh about these days (Lindsay is facing potential felony charges, though she’s only recently finished another of her rehab stints), so we’ve got some advice for Dina, Linds and the rest of the family: If you want people to stop cracking jokes about you, stop being ridiculous.

Sarah Palin Airs Her Opinions About Katie Couric and Tina Fey
Posted by Veronica Santiago Categories: Television, Videos,
Even though she walked away as one of the biggest names of 2008, Sarah Palin isn’t exactly pleased with those who became famous along with her. In an interview for a documentary called Media Malpractice, the Alaska governor said she found it interesting how others benefitted from her campaign run.
“I did see that Tina Fey was named entertainer of the year and Katie Couric’s ratings have risen. I know that a lot of people are capitalizing on, oh I don’t know, perhaps some exploiting that was done via me, my family, my administration — that’s a little bit perplexing, but it also says a great deal about our society.”
