  • Madonna and Britney are more alike than we may think. She was caught yesterday buckling up her newly adopted son David in the back seat of her Escalade, with no car seat. She ended up sitting with him on her lap. After all of the controversy Britney went through for driving with her son on her lap why would Madonna do the same thing? She is one of the most influential artists of our time. With everything going on with her adopted son, she had to have known the paparazzi were going to be watching her every move. It might not be as bad as what Britney did, but it is pretty much the same thing. Come on people you can definitely afford a car seat!
  • Angelina Jolie is coming back to the big screen. After her and Brad Pitt got together she has been keeping a low profile. Other than issues with her children and her new adoption she has not been in the tabloids as much as she used to be. It is all about to change know that she has two movies coming out "Beowulf," and "The Mighty Heart," and is also set to star in "The Changeling" which will be directed by Clint Eastwood. She will play the role of a young mother whose son has been abducted, when she gets him back she does not think it is her son, she blames corruption on the LAPD. This movie is based on a true story from actual events that happened in the 1920's. The film is a project headed by Universal Pictures and Imagine Entertainment.
  • "Borat" is coming to television. Twentieth Century Pictures has landed a deal with USA Network to have the movie air on their channel for $11 million. Certain content of the movie will be cut, in order to have it run on network television, and certain scenes ( The wrestling nude scene) will be pixilated so it can run on syndicated television.

The movie will not on air on USA until April 2009, but it is guaranteed that everyone will be watching.

Morning news



The cast of Grey's Anatomy are having a hard time with their pay negotiations. Katherine Heigl has been in the papers and tabloids for the past week because she was very upset that she was not getting paid as much as her other cast members were. She wanted to get as much money as Sandra Oh and Isaiah Washington. Well it turns out things are not going so well for Washington. As the cast are in negotiations over salaries, they don't think Isaiah should be able to ask for more money. After his much publicized comment made against fellow co-star T.R. Knightly about being gay. The producers are holding it against him and do not think he should get more money because they don't want to condone his actions.

Rachel Ray was attacked on Saturday in Union Square. She was walking her dog when another dog that was un- accompanied kept going after Rachel's Dog Isaboo. She tried to get the dog away put it became aggressive, and started to attack her. Rachel got bit on her leg. Just because she is a chef does not mean she tastes good. It must have been a scary situation, but it is a hilarious story!

The producer of "Borat," Larry Charles is coming back to television. He has signed a 2 1/2 deal with ABC Studios to create scripted comedies and animated shows. He is a huge producer and writer in the television industry.

Best and Worst Dressed



The 79th annual Academy Awards are starting soon. With the Red Carpet buzzing with excitement here is my take on this evenings best and worst dressed celebrity. Beyonce, in her mint green Armani jeweled gown looked absolutely stunning. she got everything right the perfect hair, jewelry and shoes. People said she keeps replicating the same "Dreamgirl" look but if it works for her she should stick with it. Anne Miran wowed the crowd in her golden almost vintage looking gown. She is definitely giving young Hollywood a run for their money. Kate Blanchet wearing a stunning silver gown by Armani Prive, She looked like a goddess the only thing I thought did not look right was her hair, it did not go with her dress. Reese Witherspoon looked amazing as always. she was floating in her black strapless drees. Being single definitely works for her, she has such a glow about her that makes her look extra amazing.

The men stood out as well. I have to say they are all looking classic and well groomed. To my surprise Sacha Baron Cohen was one of my favorites, after seeing him all crazy in scruffy in "Borat" it is nice to see how well he cleans up. My other best dress males were Leonardo Dicaprio 9of course,) Forrest Whitaker, he looked so handsome but yet humble in his tuxedo. Mark Wahlberg looked amazing in his classically tailored tuxedo. The men did very well this year, I don't really have any votes for worst dress males, but these four stood out for me.

Know for the bad news, my vote for the worst dressed females. Kirsten Dunst, Ann Hathaway, Gwyneth Paltrow, and Meryl Streep. Kirsten Dunst looked washed out and to old in her vintage light blue dress. The feathers on the bottom just topped a horrible look for her. Gwyneth Paltrow looked like a mermaid in her pink Zac Posen dress. Everything from the dress to the hair just did not work for her tonight. Meryl Streep was wonderful in" he Devil Wears Prada" she looked amazing and gave an amazing performance, she should have took some cues from her role as Miranda. Her long baggy black dress with her long orange necklaces were horrible. She looked like she got up went through her closet and put on the first thing she could find. It must be something with "The Devil Wears Prada" Ann Hathaway did not live up to the expectation either. Her white lace dress with black overlay that looks like she is wearing her bra on the outside of he dress, just did not work for me. It is such a shame, she is such a beautiful girl everything else worked but the dress was awful! For more of the celebrities walking the Red carpet, click here.
