Walt Disney's last words were "Kurt Russell


Actor Kurt Russell has confirmed the last words movie mogul Walt Disney wrote before he died were "Kurt Russell" Russell was a child actor for the studio at the time.

Most people thought that it was an exagerated story, that Walt Disney wrote 'Kurt' and 'Russell' just before he passed away in 1966. But during Jimmy Kimmel Live, Russell said that the story is true.

Kurt said, "It's true. I don't know what to make of that. I was taken into his office one time after he died and I was shown that."

Keira Knightley upset with Lindsay Lohan



Keira Knightley is “furious” at Lindsay Lohan for quiting the Dylan Thomas movie "The Best Time Of Our Lives".

Lindsay Lohan quit the cast (which by the way was written by Keira Knightley’s mom Sharman Macdonald) because of "contractual issues".

Sounds like Lohan ditched the cast in the last minute and left the movie in a lurch. Probably over money, but no one has said that to the press yet, so I'm just spreading rumors.

Things I Learned from American Idol with Sanjaya

Sanjaya presented the Top 10 list on Letterman on Monday of this week. Pretty funny = Things I learned from American Idol

10. The camera adds ten pounds to your mohawk.

9. Work hard and make sacrifices, you can finish in 7th place.

8. It’s very important to “Keep it real, dawg.”

7. I should have gone for the immunity idol – oh wait, that’s “Survivor.”

6. On-camera Simon is a bit nasty, but off-camera, he’s a total jerk.

5. Voting for yourself 100 times an hour causes some wicked carpal tunnel.

4. When you forget the words, just do this.

(Sanjaya belts out a riff like“Ohhhhhhhh”)

3. Honestly, I thought I was auditioning for “Are You Smarter Than a 5th Grader?”

2. Nothing.

1. America loves performers with bad hair – right, Dave?

Heather Mills, odd popularity


I haven't been able to get my head wrapped around this whole Heather-Mills-Dancing-With-The-Stars thing... I just find it a little off. A woman with a prosthetic limb, the former wife of one of the Beatles, dancing in airplane aisles, falling down during the samba, and the list goes on.

Strange, right?

Sanjaya going to the White House Correspondents' Association Dinner


Sanjaya Malakar got the boot off of American Idol, but big-haired Sanjaya has now been invited to the White House Correspondents' Association Dinner on Saturday.

I wonder who they will sit Sanjaya next to? Will the whole table be Fanjayas?

Is Hillary Clinton a Fanjaya?


At least Sen Hillary Clinton knows the format for American Idol - but she didn't seem to know much about Sanjay. Or at least she wasn't willing to say.

Hillary Clinton was asked by a reporter what Americans should do about Sanjaya on American Idol. Her response was a liitle vague:

"That's the best question I've been asked in a long time," responded Sen. Clinton. "Well, you know, people can vote for whomever they want. That's true in my election, and it's true on 'American Idol.""

Yeah, yeah, OK, Americans can vote. But what we want to know if how YOU would vote. You're either with us or you're against us on this. Is Sanjaya good or is he bad?

Britney Spears shops at Target

Well, usually I don't post Britney photos. I feel bad for the woman, her life is plagued by paparazzi. But this Britney pic is kind of fun. Britney decided to go shopping in Target and she decided to open one of the lotions in the aisle and give it a try. Very normal of her. Except when I do this, I don't wear a skimpy odd looking cowgirl dress.

Vinod Nayar and Elizabeth Hurley


Vinod Nayar and Liz Hurley aren't the best of friends. Liz just married Vinod's son, and according to Vinod she was a psycho at the wedding. He claims that Liz ignored gifts from the Nayar family and catered more to the media than to the family.

Elizabeth Hurley is upset too. The gossip mill suggests that she has no interest in ever seeing the senior Nayar again.

Off to a rocky first year of marriage!

Derek Whibley and Avril Lavigne buy into Bel Air

I'm guessing that Avril makes a lot more money than her hubby, Derek Whibley of the Canadian rock band Sum-41,. I don't think Sum-41 has sold enough albums to cover what they paid for their new house in Bel Air = about $9.5 million. Of course the pad has 8 bedrooms and 10 bathrooms.

James Gandolfini and the Sopranos


Wow, the final season of the Sopranos. What'll James Gandolfini do next?

The Sopranos has been a foundation in the TV diet. What'll HBO come up with to replace it?


Howard K Stern hires a big shot lawyer


Howard K Stern is stepping it up. Howard has hired Lin Wood, who represented high profile clients such as John and Patsy Ramsey.

Justin Timberlake despises me? Nah...


Come on Justin... you're trying to tell us that you don't PURPOSEFULLY drum up publicity with the gossip rags and celebrity magazines. You mean to tell us that the little stunt with wardrobe malfunctions was legit, and dropping slime on your head last week was just for fun. Nah...

"It's a spin game, and I choose not to take part in it."

I don't buy it. I think Justin likes seeing his "Dick in a Box" video on the most played list at YouTube. I think he digs seeing his name on the popularity charts.



Of course, when he said that he despised celebrity magazines, I'm sure he wasn't referring to this here blog!

KITT from Knight Rider is for sale


Just what I always wanted, a talking car that can spit fire. The KITT car from Knight Rider is up for sale.

David Hasselhoff got to drive this bad boy around in the 80's. Maybe Leonardo DiCaprio will buy it this year and retro fit it with some solar panels and a hybrid battery.

What in the world would you do with KITT????

Alaina Alexander pics



I noticed some buzz about Alaina Alexander. Seems that she's still in the blogosphere, even after getting the boot several weeks ago from American Idol. And what's the big story?

Seems to be not much more than minor celebrity gossip. She posted some sexy pics on her Myspace page (but nothing as racey as Antonella Barba's pictures) and has kissed a few boys.

Not much more to report, so instead I'll post a few pipctures of her... here ya go.
