Jon Cryer: Actually, He is a Troll

Posted by K.C. Morgan Categories: Television, Rants, Rivalries, Videos,

Jon Cryer is addressing Charlie Sheen’s ranting and raving like a true gentleman: by making tons of hilarious jokes about it. After an appearance on The Ellen DeGeneres show in which he appeared to be working as her receptionist (poking fun at the fact that he’s now out of work thanks to Sheen), Cryer continued to be funny with Conan O’Brien. Watch him slay it in the video above.

In a tongue-in-cheek response to Charlie Sheen’s unwarranted attack against him, Jon Cryer made a truly startling revelation: he is, in fact, a troll.

And in the terrestrial realm known as TBS, a troll may just have the power to defeat a warlock.

Sara Gilbert: Out of the Closet

Posted by K.C. Morgan Categories: Television, Child Stars,

During the summer press tour of the Television Critics Association (TCA), Sara Gilbert - best-known for her role as wisecracking Darlene on Roseanne - announced that she is, in fact, homosexual.

Gilbert has recently signed on to co-host and executive produce a new talk show called The Talk. Julie Chen, Leah Remini, Holly Robinson Peete, Sharon Osbourne and Marissa Jaret Winokur are also on the show – which seems to have an MSNBC meets The View vibe.

Sara explained her decision to spill the beans at TCA: “So obviously I’m going to be discussing my life more, and I felt that the first place I wanted to do it wasn’t in a CBS press release It just seemed impersonal, and I felt like I’d rather come in person and talk to you about all that stuff here.”

Posted by Veronica Santiago Categories: Television, Weddings,

Although most Hollywood celebrities seem to be leaning toward divorce these days, Ellen DeGeneres has decided to change things up a bit.

In light of California’s recent decision on gay marriage, the 50-year-old talk show host announced that she and her partner intend to wed. She revealed the happy news to her audience in today’s episode of her program. Portia de Rossi, DeGeneres’ girlfriend since 2004, was in the audience at the time.

Oprah Duped by Another Writer

Posted by Veronica Santiago Categories: Television,

Unless you’ve recently come out of hibernation, you were aware of the issue between Oprah and James Frey a while back.  After Winfrey selected his book, A MIllion Little Pieces, for her book club in October 2005, the talk show host was blindsided by controversial news:  the ‘memoir’ was partially made up.

Although it’s been over two years since Frey received a very public scolding from Oprah on her show, it seems the mogul’s peeps have not learned their lesson.  While you would think they had a very large fact-checking operation going on - heaven forbid she be embarrassed again - they’ve let another supposed ‘memoir’ get past their sensors.

Posted by Veronica Santiago Categories: Television, Clothing, Fashion Police, Style, Photos, Oops Photos, Videos,

On last night’s episode of Late Night with Conan O’Brien, fashion guru Tim Gunn gave his honest opinions on two big political figures: President George Bush and Senator Hillary Clinton.

The Project Runway mentor made a comment on Bush’s ill-advised presidential socks-with-crocs faux pas and then proceeded to call Clinton’s look “man-ish”.  He also said her style reflected gender issues.  Ouch!

Which politician does Gunn praise?  Check out the video below.

Paris Hilton Plays Hide the Pooch

Posted by K.C. Morgan Categories: Movies, Television, Legal Issues, Breaking News,

Hotel heiress Paris Hilton was doing normal promotion for her movie when she smilingly answered a question posed to her by Ellen DeGeneres. Hilton told the talk show host she has 17 -seventeen- dogs. How did the dogs reach such an astronomical count? “They keep having babies, and I feel bad to give them away ‘cause I feel like if I had a baby and someone gave it away, it’d be mean.” So, she just keeps them all. Welcome to the logic and mindset of Paris Hilton - spend too much time here and you’ll forget to wear underwear but maintain all sorts of canine morality.

After this network appearance, animal services turned up at the Hilton home. Because Paris isn’t a pet breeder, she actually can’t have more than three dogs at a single address. However, department officials weren’t able to find any dogs (or the heiress herself) at the mansion. A rep for the heiress claims the doggies are actually divided up among those close to Paris, and always have been.

Tyra Banks Threatens to Sue Cancer Survivor

Posted by Robin Paulson Categories: Television, Style, Charity, Kind Acts, Legal Issues,

Tyra Banks worshippers may be a bit shocked this week to discover that their beloved supermodel-turned-entrepreneur may be suing a stage four cervical cancer survivor.

The mother of two, thirty-nine year-old Jodi Hughes, was both thrilled and surprised to find out that her two sons had won her a makeover spot on Tyra’s “Holiday Girl Party!” episode. Not only was the makeover a real letdown consisting of nothing more than a new dress and hair weave, but Hughes claims that producers would not allow her two sons (one of whom is blind) to enter the building, leaving them with no supervision or care while she received her “makeover.”

Furthermore, Hughes had to have the weave surgically removed due to an infection it caused on her scalp; all of the hair she grew completely gone after having undergone chemotherapy for years.

Hughes has asked nothing more from Banks and her team but an apology—she has not requested any monetary compensation for her mistreatment. However, Tyra showed her love towards Hughes when she threatened a lawsuit for violating her gag-order, which prevents her from talking about the show.

Someone told her that she definitely isn’t the next Oprah, right?

James Blunt Is Sweet and Creepy

Posted by Jacci Lewis Categories: Music, Television, Weddings, Kind Acts, Editorials,

I’m sure James Blunt is a perfectly nice guy, but something about him just creeps me the heck out.

Today on the Ellen show, Blunt told an audience for the countless time how he sold his sister to a wealthy man on eBay. Now they are married. 

The story sort of has a legitimate beginning. Blunt, a self-proclaimed eBay addict, says his sister Emily had no way to get to a funeral in Ireland.

The “You’re Beautiful” singer came up with the bright idea of listing her on the popular auction website as a ‘damsel in distress’.  The highest bidder was a man with a helicopter and apparently no qualms about the white slavery aspects of the deal. They hit it off, moved in together and got married about 6 months ago.

Blunt says he hasn’t decided whether to offer up his remaining sister to the highest bidder. Ick.
