Bounty hunter Duane Dog Chapman bailed out Nic Cage from jail in NOLA?

Celebrity Scandal!

Bounty hunter Duane Dog Chapman bailed out Nic Cage from jail in NOLA?

[Apr. 16]

Free press… get your free press here! Of all the people to post bond for actor Nicolas Cage after his arrest for domestic violence and disturbing the peace in New Orleans yesterday, reality television star Dog the Bounty Hunter (a.k.a. Duane Chapman) stepped up to the plate, says TMZ. Bounty Hunter is a big title for Dog, as few people know he is really just a little guy who stands about 5’7″ tall (we suspect in boot lifts). When the Bounty Hunter show first aired Chapman on TV, The Bounty Hunter became a fun hit television series to watch on A&E.

Duane was only just plain Jane “Duane Chapman” before he became the Watch Dog. In every episode of his television series, Duane ‘Dog’ Chapman hypes not only the criminals antics prior to arrest but also offers offenders a chance at redemption. [Many times with coaxing to turn away from the dark side by both he and his amply stacked persuasive wife Beth.

Movie actor Nicolas Cage, who was being held on $11,000 bond, was picked up by Dog after the star landed himself in jail for refusing to go inside when New Orleans police asked him to voluntarily enter the building. Instead, the actor and the star of, fittingly, Con Air among many other films, told the police to arrest him. He again was asked to go inside, but refused. Officers then arrested Cage, who they said had been drinking at the time.

According to TMZ, Dog’s wife Beth Chapman and co-star on his reality show, Dog the Bounty Hunter, more-or-less confirmed the Nicholas Cage bail out pick-up by way of a tweet: “My guy just walked out of the jail damn new Orleans 8 hours holy cow that’s a lot of time to Process one guy.”

Celebrity Style: Jessica Simpson designing wedding dresses in secret?

Jessica Simpson secretly designing wedding dresses — hoping to use one special bridal gown as her own?

[Apr. 16]

Celebrity singer and actress Jessica Simpson — she sure filled in those Daisy Dukes well on the film version of The Dukes of Hazard (2005) — is reported to be designing her own wedding dress for when she gets hitched at the end of this year. She has said it won’t come from the Jessica Simpson Collection, according to the website Jezebel, but she adds, “I think every bride wants to design her own dress or at least have a part in it…” but rumor is she is keeping all her bridal gown designs a secret.

Jessica Simpson confirmed for Extra that the date to marry fiance Eric Johnson, formerly with the 49ers and the Saints in the NFL, is sometime later this year, but she didn’t identify a specific date. Extra also noted that Simpson on Thursday sang at Coors Field in Denver, CO, in a tribute to military families, alongside First Lady Michelle Obama. Jessica Simpson said, “When I got the call from Mrs. Obama, I was pretty shocked. It was like, did she get the wrong number?”

Regarding the Jessica Simpson official wedding dress design secret, website Gather notes:

As tantalizing as knowing Jessica Simpson’s wedding dress will be another one of her own creations, fans will just have to wait to learn more because Simpson is keeping very hush hush about the potential details. Maybe Jessica is worried that Vanessa Minnillo will come along and steal her design ideas.

The Business Insider has noted that Jessica Simpson designing her own wedding dress is a big deal. She has been working on her fashion brand since 2008, when she put out her last album. So it should be no news that she has made a hit of designing her own wedding dress. Is the green celebrity going to go into fashion design full time? “Simpson now sells (in case you’ve not been in a Macy’s for a few years): shoes, handbags, denim, outerwear, glasses, swimwear, accessories, fragrance and luggage. And her brand is valued somewhere between $750 million and $1 billion,” says Business Insider.

Is this a cue that Jessica Simpson will be launching her own bridal line?

Celebrity Diets: Kimora Lee Simmons save the tatas diet secrets revealed

Kimora Lee Simmons terrifying new Save The Tatas diet secrets revealed — stop eating to get thin?

[Apr. 16]

Sadly, this celebrity is not dieting to prevent breast cancer or to promote breast cancer awareness. Kimora Lee, model and author, has a fascinating new weight loss plan. Just don’t eat! But it’s not that simple, she says. Kimora is trying to assure everyone that she doesn’t actually starve herself to death, because, as one author points out in Gawker, of all the fat to go by starving oneself, the boobs are the first to go. We don’t want that!

No, Kimora Lee Simmons has said her diet balanced her meals with lean protein and other green and healthy foods, combined with some exercise, to drop 25 pounds in a year. That really is the healthy way to go. Many celebrities, especially models, attempt to drop as much weight and as many dress sizes as they can within a week to a month before a fashion show, new movie cameo, photo shoot, or TV guest appearance, which is a seriously unhealthy diet. They also tend to embrace either Kimora’s style of dieting (which simulates Anorexia) or the binge purge regime of mentally unbalanced men and women who love to eat but are obsessed with staying thin.

The former Mrs. Russel Simmons said, according to PopEater:

“I have shed the fat by not eating,” Kimora half-jokingly tells me. “But I don’t like to tell the kids that so they think they shouldn’t eat. No, I watch my portions, and I eat leaner proteins and vegetables and stuff like that.”

She backed up her claims that she is neither anorexic or starving herself in an unhealthy manner, telling PopEate she is not like other models or reality television stars the following diet story:

“I was out one night with two famous sisters” — Kimora asked that I not reveal the identity of the young reality stars — “when a bunch of burgers were being passed around. I went to grab one and the two of them looked shocked. They said, ‘We don’t eat.’ Then after I grabbed a burger, they said they were joking but I knew they weren’t!”

The sisters (Kardashian sisters, we presume but can’t prove) were starving themselves, according to Kimora, and that’s just not healthy. And with word on the streets that Kim Kardashian has been wearing Spanx, it’s easy enough to believe. The diet according to Kimora Lee Simmons is much more healthy, and obviously it works.

The celebrity mom and reality television star is looking great!

Little Monsters: Lady Gaga cat lady killer look inspired real pet death?

Celebrity Scandal!

Little Monsters learn shocking news as fan girl goes Gaga, killing family pet cat to make a dress?

[Apr. 16]

This is not a pet friendly news story. Preparing for a Lady Gaga show in Oklahoma City this week, one girl went wildly over the edge to imitate the iconic pop star, known for showing up to the MTV Music Awards in her now infamous meat dress. Angelina Barnes, 20, of Oklahoma City, drowned and mutilated the 15-year-old family cat while dressed in a Lady Gaga outfit and proceeded to cover her face in cat blood, according to Radar Online.

Relatives of Angelina Barnes came home to find all the lights in the home out, with duct tape over all the switches, preventing them from turning on any lights. In the bathroom, they found the cat, drowned in the bathtub and mutilated. The bathroom was covered in purple hair dye and cat blood, and the cat’s eyes had been poked out. The cat’s liver was found in a make-up box, according to The Huffington Post.

Apparently Angelina Barnes had first drowned the cat, then sliced it down the middle, using the cat blood to paint herself before the Lady Gaga concert. Following that, she mutilated the cat’s body. At least one of Lady Gaga’s “Little Monsters” got way out of control this time. Nobody knows if the disturbed girl intended to do anything else with the mutilated body as part of the concert costume.

Celebrity Style: Kim Kardashian secret weapon SPANX revealed under red dress?

Kim Kardashian secret weapons revealed under red dress?

[Apr. 16]

Spanx you very much, paparazzi photogs, for revealing what should never be seen on a cover model with the red press upskirt shot. In a wild twist on what women wear to look good, we now have a brand marketing dream story on what women wear to perform better (while looking good, of course).

Reality television starlet Kim Kardashian was caught wearing Spanx under her dress to tame her beastly thighs in a picture you can see at Gawker and here from Hollywood Life. We’re not sure if she was trying to look thinner, since she and sister Khloe Kardashian have been complaining recently about looking too fat, or if she just thinks its a hot new-old style, like retro-wear — the modern day girdle — to control lumpy leg tops and increase her animal magnetism.

Spotting Kim Kardashian in Spanx was definitely a bot of a dream crusher for her male followers, as we all like to daydream the lovely Miss Kardashian is naturally perfect. Besides, wasn’t her plastic surgeon supposed to have fixed all that hot mess thing she had going on with her backside and thighs a while ago — or was that just a rumor? That Kim Kardashian had lyposuction and thigh sculpting procedures to make her look all the more perfect with and without her designer clothes present?

As for Spanx, the brand… guys might not really know the secret weapon women wear — but anyone drug to watch the chick movie Bridget Jones Diary knows that while a girl might look smoking hot in her dress that once the clothes come off she may be wearing enormous panties.

Celebrity Homes: Taylor Swift gift to parents $1.4 million country home?

Taylor Swift real estate gift to parents a $1.4 million country home in Nasheville?

[Apr. 16]

Grammy winner and country music legend Taylor Swift, famous for “Our Song” among other chart-toppers, and a cameo appearance in Hannah Montana: The Movie (2009), just plunked down $1.4 million for real estate. She actually bought a home in Nashville, Tennessee as a gift, according to Us Magazine. And it wasn’t even for her. No, this Dixie darling, just barely legal to drink in most states, bought the 5,000 sq. ft. home for her parents. And she bought a new hot pad for herself in Los Angeles as well just about the same time she was busy putting a bow on the real estate in the Deep South, since she’s been spending so much time in California. Realtors say she even made sure the new post place on the West Coast is likely to have a guest room ready wehn mom and dad head West to visit. Who could ask for a better kid?

“It’s an incredible house,” a source close to Taylor Swift told Us Magazine.

LA Times reports:

The property, built in 1925, boasts three bedrooms and 5,000 square feet, complete with a blue stone terrace and sizable outdoor fireplace. The Real Estalker, which has pictures of the place, said records show the sale went down toward the end of last year.

The new home would be the second for the Swift parents in Tennessee. They have a larger and no less luxurious lakefront home in historic Hendersonville, according to The Real Estalker blog, which they bought for $790,000 in 2004. They also sold beachfront property in Cape May, New Jersey, for $2.4 million in 2005 after purchasing it for just $485,000 back in 1997. The Swift family certainly isn’t hurting for property or cash, it seems, but it sure was nice for Taylor Swift to do so much for her parents.

Taylor Swift also has purchased a home in Los Angeles, according to PopEater. A source has said, “She is in L.A. so much — and she was paying a fortune in hotel charges!”
