Rip Van Biden: New nickname for Joe Biden compliments of The Daily Show?

Rip Van Biden!

Best new nickname for VP compliments of The Daily Show?

[Apr. 15]

Change has come to America, and apparently all the hard work to make it happen makes politicians of the highest rank and order need a nap. Vice President Joe Biden appeared to fall asleep during a speech given at George Washington University by President Barack Obama regarding the Federal deficit this week, provoking huge laughs and winces from nearly everybody who saw the clip of Joe Biden asleep during an Obama speech. For several seconds at least, Vice President Biden had his eyes closed, after which he opened his eyes and bowed his head, leaving some to think he could have been sleeping. Like late night talk show host Jon Stewart on The Daily Show April 14th.

Soap Opera Drama: ABC cancels All My Children and One Life To Live true?

Soap Opera Drama!

ABC cancels All My Children and One Life To Live rumor true?

[Apr. 15]

Shock and devastation for soap opera fans! ABC will be canceling its seminal daytime soap operas, One Life to Live and All My Children and both fans and the cast seem to indicate the same thing — it feels like the network is killing family. The surprising true news rumor verification came Thursday as ABC announced in a press release that it will be replacing the shows with two new shows — The Chew, a show focusing on food from all angles rather than other shows that focus on particular chefs, restaurants, or styles; and a show tentatively titled The Revolution, a daily focusing on health and lifestyle. Both new titles will be hard for soap opera devotees to swallow.

ABC says:

Guided by extensive research into what today’s daytime viewers want and the changing viewing patterns of the audience, ABC is evolving the face of daytime television with the launch of two new shows, “The Chew” which will premiere in September 2011 and “The Revolution” (working title) which will premiere in January 2012.

Celebrity Teens: Demi Lovato mental illness confessions big news?

Celebrity Teens!

Demi Lovato speaks out about her mental illness?

[Apr. 15]

Disney Princess Demi Lovato recently was released from rehab over alleged drug and alcohol issues, after striking out at one of her dancers for confessing the teen starlet’s partying to her parents. Then she confessed to Seventeen magazine about an eating disorder. Just this Thursday, the singer and actress tweeted encouragement to Catherine Zeta-Jones, who also has gone into treatment for bipolar disorder, and she had only positive words for the actress and wife of Michael Douglas. All of these events for the celebrity teen made major media headline news. That is pretty exciting for an up and coming starlet, pop music star, and television personality — considering the very real fact most adults in America have never heard of her.

“I don’t know Catherine Zeta-Jones personally but what she has decided to do it SO brave.. And SO difficult but worth it… I’m proud of her,” the Disney starlet said on Twitter. News flash.

And speaking of Twitter, don’t let Demi Lovato know that you text while driving. On Wednesday, she tweeted a twitpic of a man in a car next to her, obviously looking down toward the steering column instead of at the road ahead of him where he should have been looking. Huge entertainment journal response.

Demi was not impressed. “FYI – this is how dumb you look when you are texting while driving…. Hahaha #donttextndrive,” reports Earsucker.com, and she added, “P.s. I was NOT driving when I took this! :p” Good for you! We don’t need any more irresponsible drivers on the roads. Talk show fodder.

[And the Disney princess might just punch you like she punched her dancer when she had her breakdown. Kidding! She’s better now. Feature article.]

Kardashian Sisters: Kim Kardashian wedding planning with Kris Humphries?

Kardashian Sisters!

Kim Kardashian wedding planning with Kris Humphries?

[Apr. 14]

Is reality television star (now questionable singer and possible movie star) Kim Kardashian talking about wedding plans to NBA star and Harry Potter troll lookalike Kris Humphries? Some sources say so. Most shocking is a tweet coming from Kim’s Twitter account that made mention of her “future husband,” though the green celebrity and Keeping Up with the Kardashians star has said it was just Kris Humphries fiddling with her phone, says Hollywood Life. Maybe he’s got more interest in getting hitched to the reality television than she does? Sources doubt it.

Celebrity Cafe reports that Kim Kardashian has spoken to Life and Style Magazine:

Kardashian has talked about what wedding ring she would want. “I want Lorraine to design me a big diamond ring,” Kardashian told friend Brittny Gastineau. A friend also said, “Her idol is Elizabeth Taylor, who was a good friend of Lorraine’s, so she wants to take inspiration from one of Elizabeth’s prized possessions: her famous cushion-cut Krupp diamond. Kim’s been talking to Lorraine about it a lot lately,” according to Terra.com.

Kim Kardashian and an insider went on to tell Life and Style Magazine that the reality television star and green celebrity has long envisioned what her wedding will be like. The insider tells the magazine that Kim already is planning a trip to Paris for a Chanel wedding gown. “She wants a white strapless floor-length gown that’s traditional but sexy and makes her feel like a princess,” says the insider.

Strange News: Jon Stewart praised FOX conservative Bill O’Reilly?

Strange News!

Late night talk show host and liberal Jon Stewart praises FOX conservative talk show host Bill O’Reilly for statements about Michelle Obama and Barack Obama?

[Apr. 14]

Gasp. Just when you thought FOX News hated all things liberal, and just when you thought comedian and green celebrity Jon Stewart of The Daily Show hated all things FOX News, the comedian and television host actually praised FOX News commentator Bill O’Reilly, host of The O’Reilly Factor for dismissing claims that President Barack Obama was not born in Hawaii, and dismissing claims that First Lady Michelle Obama lost her license to practice law.

Jon Stewart on The Daily Show went on to mock Sarah Palin, for continuing to claim that President Obama may have something to hide by not making his birth certificate public, in spite of evidence to the contrary, notes the Huffington Post. Stewart also mocked Rep. Michele Bachmann (MN) for saying she takes Obama at his word, with Jon Stewart joking, “You don’t accept gravity because you take Newton’s word for it.”

Celebrity Scandal: Kobe Bryant apologizes to LGBT community for gay slur

Celebrity Scandal!

Kobe Bryant apologizes to LGBT community for openly gay slur?

[Apr. 14]

Perez Hilton, an openly gay blogger, knows a little bit about bullying. When he speaks, his words have the power to heal, divide, or hurt any celebrity or public figure. Whether he is outing a Hollywood star or starlet who is not yet ready to have their sexuality thrust into the bright lights of paparazzi attention or he is simply commenting that someone’s choice of fashion on the red carpet is at best ugly, his words reverberate throughout the blogosphere in such a way that they give him star power and the accused or praised a public media boost like no other. But what about when simple phrases that reinforce negative stereotypes are thrown around by other less prolific celebrity figures while people are listening and cameras are rolling? Such was the case when celebrity athlete Kobe Bryant, an NBA basketball player, threw out some openly stupid remarks about the gay community. Realizing after the fact that he had been labeled a verbal bully recanted his remarks with a public apology almost immediately, and since the sports hero himself had a checkered past filled with nasty allegations about his own sexual nature with regard to misogynistic behavior but was forgiven by fans, Kobe Bryant now hopes the gay and lesbian community across the United States will forgive him.
