Courtney Love, WTF?


Is she back on the hoss? shootin the smack? I mean really, how else would she be so damm skinny AND pale like death? She honestly looks like she's ready to step right into her grave.

from Mail Online:

Halloween may be months off, but Courtney Love did a good job of frightening onlookers with her ghoulish appearance in LA yesterday. (6/19)

The singer's deathly pale skin drew gasps as she stepped out for a shopping trip in Malibu in a 1920s see-through lace dress, as did her painfully frame.

Her once Rubenesque figure has been reduced to just skin and bone, sparking concerns over her health.

Love's weight has long been the focus of attention - she lost 52 pounds last year on a strict diet of shakes combined with minimal fish and vegetables.

She denied reports gastric bypass surgery and liposuction aided her initial transformation.
Now it appears emotional strain is to blame - Courtney recently revealed she was feeling suicidal after the ashes of her husband, Nirvana's Kurt Cobain disappeared from her home.

Is 'Fencing' gay code for buttseks?

from digital spy:

Beckham, Smith fence with Cruise

Rex Features

Will Smith has revealed that he and David Beckham have taken up a new hobby with Tom Cruise.

Speaking at the premiere of his new film Hancock, Smith explained that he had started fencing with the pair.

He told The Mirror: "Tom has a room for training. We don't get enough time to hang out, just us three guys, so this is his way of getting together and bonding. David and I go to his home and just do fencing. It's a lot of fun.

"We wanted an activity that was strenuous, but we're getting older - we have to think about slowing down."

Smith joked: "We've got to watch our joints. Especially my knee."

So....


Jamie Lynn Spears spawned another Spears girl. *yawn* Teen pregnancies are so boring. Somebody should slap her for the name choice, Madison Brianna would have been better.

from Ass-kissing, kneepad wearing People:

There is a new baby in the Spears clan! Jamie Lynn Spears and her fiancé Casey Aldridge welcomed a baby girl Thursday morning.

PEOPLE confirms exclusively that the baby was named Maddie Briann

"Just the family was there," says a source about the birth around 9:30 a.m. at a hospital in Mississippi, near her Louisiana hometown. "Everyone is healthy and happy."

Jamie Lynn's sister Britney, father Jamie and brother Bryan flew in Wednesday to be with her for the birth; her mother Lynne had been with her helping her get ready for the baby.

Since announcing her pregnancy in December, Britney’s little sister has retreated from the bright lights of Hollywood, opting for the comforts of her hometown of Kentwood, La.

and in other boring Spears news, from handbag gossip:

A shocking new book claims Britney Spears has tried to kill herself twice in the last 18 months.

A shocking new book claims Britney Spears has tried to kill herself twice in the last 18 months.Britney Spears attempted suicide twice in the last 18 months, a shocking new book claims. Award winning journalist Ian Halperin spent the last year and a half undercover posing as a paparazzo to "get close to Spears and her inner circle of managers and friends". Halperin told Life And Style Weekly of the singer's two apparent suicide bids and claims her problems are fuelled by drugs and the company she keeps. "I saw a lot. I partied with her and was able to really monitor what type of stuff she was using. It's very concerning," he explains. "But the book is mainly about her handlers, how sleazy and destructive they are towards her. The people around her are like vultures. She's on major medications. And she's being micro-managed and controlled to the extreme by her parents, the courts and a huge team of doctors and handlers. I think she's in danger of a catastrophic relapse." It's not all bad though, the journalist, who's written books on Kurt Cobain and Celine Dion, did say, "She's basically a good person. She's actually a very caring mom."

*why are all books promoted as being "shocking".....none of this really surprises me*

and from digital spy:

Britney Spears's mum has revealed that her popstar daughter wants to leave California and "return to Louisiana".

Since rising to fame a decade ago, Spears has spent most of her time away from her Kentwood, Louisiana hometown.

According to Us Magazine, a declaration from Lynne Spears to the LA Superior Court said: "Britney has spent a majority of her time over the last five years in the state of California due in part to work but primarily with respect to a custody dispute currently ongoing."

Spears's ex husband Kevin Federline currently has primary custody of their two sons, Jayden James and Sean Preston.

Tom Cruise out of MI:4!!!

from ONTD:


It appears that Tom Cruise isn't putting all his eggs into the Valkyrie basket. Valkyrie, you'll recall, is the Bryan Singer-directed thriller in which Cruise plays a German officer who tried to assassinate Hitler. That project has hit some bumps on its way to theaters. Meanwhile, Cruise is also making an attempt to go back to his roots. But making that happen isn't simple: It seems that the Cruise camp recently reached out to Paramount about making Mission: Impossible 4 and got seriously disavowed.

Paramount's response was to ask whether Cruise would like to produce the film—as in, produce but not star in. And, since he's contractually guaranteed the right to produce such a film at this point, it wasn't much of an offer. This tells us not to read too much into that supposed rapprochement between Cruise and Sumner Redstone. And it suggests that the fighting between Cruise and Paramount studio chief Brad Grey over the deal for M:I3 was a lot more rancorous than we knew at the time.

We don't want to keep you in suspense: Cruise's answer was no. Our source tells us that Paramount met this with a shrug, since in the not-too-distant future the studio expects that it will be free, contractually, to make the movie without involving Cruise's production company. Some film executives say they think Paramount is being foolish, because they believe there is an avid audience for Cruise in this role. After all, the last one grossed about $400 million worldwide. (Maybe M:I4 could pair Cruise with Shia LaBoeuf as the young successor.) But Paramount seems to think it could relaunch the franchise with a young star and leave Cruise out of the equation.

*Tiny tom: PWND!*

I'm not so heavy on my flow and I've had a terrible sugar craving yesterday which may have been from being very tired, but I have no pain! That makes it all worth while!!!
