Happy Thanksgiving!!

or Fakesgiving, whatever the kids are calling it these days. Just for you:



and a few tidbits while you mentally digest that!

Courtney Love thinks Jamie Spears molested Britney

The Pussycat Dolls aren't speaking to Nicole S.

Rihanna is being paid large to perform New Year's Eve


and a coupla blind items just to make your day:

BuzzFoto – This story happened last year at a certain Celebrity’s Thanksgiving table. It’s no secret to the guests that came, but we still thought it was pretty interesting/strange and wanted to share it. Last year, this actress who has bragged about her cooking skills in the past, made a great Thanksgiving dinner for her friends and family. The dinner had a theme: Each guest was asked to bring a side dish laced with their favorite recreational drug of choice. The dinner was a hit, and full of crazy antics afterwards. Not Eva Longoria.

UPDATE: After this crazy Thanksgiving dinner, there was one guest who got very sick. We feel we should mention this so everyone knows (if they didn’t already) that the dinner was a VERY dangerous thing to do and we hope no one in their right mind is crazy or stupid enough to do anything close to it. The celeb apparently has had some fall-out for it, even from those who had participated and has lost some high-profile friends because of it.

BlindGossip – This celebrity couple is spinning some tall tales this Thanksgiving. They have each told their respective families that they can’t attend Thanksgiving with them because their spouse has a film commitment out of town and they need to accompany them. Not true. Neither of them are working that day. They are actually just turning off their phones and staying home. Just them and the kid/s… and one spouse’s Significant Other. How are they going to keep the kid/s quiet about how they really spent the holiday? Well, these two are such experienced liars, we’ll bet their genes have already been passed down to the next generation.

Control

Watched this movie about Ian Curtis and Joy Division yesterday. Forgot how much I loved them. The movie...well, just another tragic story of love gone wrong and a punk rock star who couldn't deal with life. *sigh* RIP Ian. At least there's an echo of days where bands wrote their own songs because they had something to say and had talent to back it up. Here's Love will tear us apart:

Did Guilt Make Him Do It?

Maybe he had a lot of other issues on his plate but lying about Michael Jackson surely weighed the heaviest. From Radaronline:

The father of a boy who sued Michael Jackson and accused him of sexual molestation died by committing suicide, RadarOnline.com has learned exclusively.

Evan Chandler, formerly a Beverly Hills dentist, shot himself in the head. He was found dead in Jersey City, N.J.

Jersey City Police Department spokesman Stan Eason told RadarOnline.com: “Evan Chandler’s body was found at 5.35 pm on November 5 by the concierge at his luxury apartment building in Jersey City. We have ruled it as suicide because he was found with a gun held to his body and had a single bullet wound to the side of his head. Mr. Chandler was 65.

“There was no note found in the apartment but officers did find medication in keeping with a serious medical condition. A doctor based at Colanta Hematology in Bayonne, NJ, had called the concierge, asking him check on Mr. Chandler’s apartment as Mr. Chandler had missed an appointment. It was thanks to the concierge’s actions that Mr. Chandler’s body was discovered. Mr. Chandler’s body has now been returned to his family.”

In the early 1990s, Chandler reported Jackson to authorities in both Los Angeles and Santa Barbara, charging the King of Pop with molesting his son, then 13.

But the case never went to trial because the boy received a civil settlement for “personal injuries arising out of claims of negligence” from the superstar.

Both parties signed a confidentiality agreement, promising not tot talk about the case or the multi-million-dollar settlement.

Playboy For Sale!!!

If you have a spare $300 million, you can own the empire that Hef built and his daughter destroyed....That's right, Playboy started to suck and go downhill when his daughter took the reins. That's when the womne started to look faker and faker and a lot more like plastic. Guess his sons will not be taking the throne!

from reuters.com:

LOS ANGELES (Reuters) - Playboy founder Hugh Hefner changed American pop culture, one centerfold at a time.

With his Playboy Enterprises Inc in talks to be sold for about $300 million, the 83 year-old Hefner will be giving up control over the iconic adult entertainment empire he founded that was instrumental in shaping society's opinions on nudity, sex and free speech.

Playboy magazine also showed men how to enjoy stylish clothing, good liquor, sports cars and other luxuries, and became a standard bearer for that lifestyle -- real or imagined.

"All that kind of stuff just piled up issue after issue -- promoting that idea of consumer abundance as being synonymous with the good life in this country -- and Hefner is very important in promoting that idea," said Steven Watts, author of "Mr. Playboy: Hugh Hefner and the American Dream."

But as Playboy's fortunes waned, some of the symbols of wealth that surrounded Hefner became harder for him to hang on to.

Playboy Enterprises Inc is in talks with Jim Griffiths, a former entertainment president at Playboy, and private equity firm Golden Gate Capital, to sell itself for about $300 million, a source familiar with the matter said Friday.

Playboy declined to comment. Golden Gate Capital, which is in joint talks with Griffiths, were not immediately available for comment.

The company is also in separate talks with Iconix Brand Group to sell itself, sources told Reuters on Thursday.

The company has been looking for a buyer for months, even before the appointment of a new chief executive in June, when Scott Flanders replaced Christie Hefner, the daughter of the magazine's founder Hugh Hefner.

Al Bundy is distraught:

Adult Swim Fans!!

check this out from reuters! I'm going to make my own season!!

LOS ANGELES (Hollywood Reporter) - Adult Swim, the raunchier side of Cartoon Network, is letting its fans design their own DVDs.

Starting Monday, visitors to AdultSwimShop.com can choose 110 minutes' worth of TV episodes, some artwork for the DVD case and disc face, as well as create a menu and title, and Adult Swim will mail the finished product to them for $20.

Adult Swim's Build a Custom DVD launches with 100 episodes of those shows and others. By year's end, its entire originals library of more than 1,000 episodes from more than 30 series will be available.

Adult swim also distributes its content digitally via iTunes, Xbox Live and PlayStation Network.

The initiative is similar to Warner Archive Collection, whereby Warner Bros. lets consumers select classic film titles online for DVDs that are "manufactured on demand" and mailed. Warner Bros. and Cartoon Network share the same parent, Time Warner.
