Hayden Panettiere to star as Foxy Knoxy (Amanda Knox) on Lifetime channel?

[Feb. 21]

Hayden Panettiere, best known for her role as Claire Bennet, the cheerleader who has miracle healing powers in the NBC hit series Heroes, is slated to star as Amanda Knox (a.k.a. Foxy Knoxy), the now 22-year-old American student accused of murdering her British roommate, Meredith Kercher, while the two resided in Italy. The film will premiere on the Lifetime channel later this month, and the Hollywood gossip surrounding the latest news updates on the tragic story have kept the topic on Google trending.

Why? Because it seems Knox’ parents are protesting the film, saying it could hurt Amanda Knox’ chances on appeal. Knox, and her co-defendants, boyfriend Raffaele Sollecito and a third killer, Rudy Guede, are all currently awaiting an appeal trial regarding the murder. Furthermore, Panettiere is of Italian descent, which may lend itself to the controversy.

Meredith Kercher’s family doesn’t seem to like it any more. “A gruesome murder sequence in Lifetime’s “The Amanda Knox Story” has reportedly been cut after Amanda Knox’s and Meredith Kercher’s family complained about the scene,” reports The New York Daily News.

[Feb. 20]

Actress Winona Ryder has sold her Sunset Strip-area home for $3.725 million, the Multiple Listing Service shows.

She’s the Generation X version of a golden age Lindsay Lohan, with all the star power but none of the crazy nonsense, making her the MEH Hollywood starlet version.

Born Winona Horowitz on October 29, 1971 in Winona, Minnesota (honest to gosh), the brunette actress is the god-daughter of Timothy Leary. [That explains a few things about why she was so great in the cult classic comedy hit Beetlejuice starting Geena Davis, Alec Baldwin, and Michael Keaton.]

According to the Sarasota Herald Tribune, “Actress Winona Ryder has sold her Sunset Strip-area home for $3,725,000. according to the MLS Listing Service.

There are four bedrooms and four bathrooms. She bought the property in 1998 for $2,600000 in 1998 according to public records.”

Kardashian Sisters: Kim Kardashian’s big butt fashion emergency at Grammys?

Kim Kardashian in big butt celebrity scandal after bad dress choice for Grammy Awards 2011?

[Feb. 18]

Kim Kardashian’s butt almost missed the Grammys 2011. No, it really it didn’t fit in her golden glittery evening dress.

If you were checking out Kim Kardashian at the Grammys Red Carpet, you should be lucky she got her butt there and all in one piece. According to her interview with Ryan Seacrest in the Grammy Red Carpet show on E! the television reality star had an issue with her butt and it didn’t fit into the dress prior to showing up.

It was so ‘unfitting’ that the designer had to be called in and changes had to be made so she could place her backside into the gown and look as sexy as she did. Bragging to US Magazine, it appears she didn’t mind people knew she was too big on the backside for the gown, even though it was previously measured.

“The designers were amazing and they came in and met me and redid the whole thing,” Kim Kardashian told Ryan Seacrest during the live broadcast of the pre-grammys red carpet. Which appeared to be hear fault as she got it previously tailored by someone else.

We are certainly glad all of Kim Kardashian’s assets (say that real slow) arrived at the Grammy’s it had us wondering why she came in the first place as she isn’t nominated, nor does she have a record. If anyone at the Academy heard the snippet of the song released on New Year’s Eve, they would have placed her way in the back of Staple’s Center, away from the cameras.

Dead Presidents: When is Presidents Day? History of the American Holiday

Dead Presidents!

When is Presidents Day? History of the American Holiday —

[Feb. 18]

No, I’m not talking about surfer dudes Patrick Swayze and Keanu Reaves dressed up in Dead Presidents costume masks, going out to rob banks and otherwise defy all adrenaline odds — including death — in the blockbuster surfer movie called Point Break. Our real presidents weren’t quite that death-defying. While Point Break was a pretty decent movie and full of excitement, there is just as much drama in understanding the American holiday called Presidents Day.

When is Presidents Day 2011? This year, we’ll be celebrating it on February 21, which is — of course — on a Monday to create a three day holiday vacation for people to relax and make short travel day trips to see friends and family (or do some spring cleaning after the Christmas and New Years Holidays).

Presidents day is not a day that Barack Obama gets to take off as a god given day of leisure. It is actually a national holiday in America that was designated to celebrate some very special and important dead presidents birthdays. However, it is kind of a strange holiday as no one really celebrates the event any more — but it is still on the calendar as a national holiday.
