Karina Smirnoff posing for Playboy true rumor?

[Apr. 11]

As if the name Smirnoff does not already evoke a sense of wicked lifestyle and debutant debauchery, Karina Smirnoff (no relation to the vodka brand) from the 2011 season of Dancing with the Stars will be featured in the May issue of Playboy magazine, People magazine reports. But it could be hot water for the dancing career of the Ukrainian hottie, who dances with celebrity actor Ralph Macchio, the original Karate Kid, say sources.

“If Karina posed naked [for Playboy], she can kiss her dancing days goodbye,” a ‘DWTS’ insider told PopEater’s Rob Shuter immediately after hearing of Playboy chief Hugh Hefner’s announcement on Twitter. “I hope for Karina’s sake that this isn’t true.”

Well, it is too late it seems, if People Magazine is to be believed. The entertainment journal and its relates sources are all quoting the DWTS professional dancer beauty and saying:

“I’m fearless and love the adrenaline rush,” the dancing pro, 32, tells Playboy, underscoring the point by posing nude in the May issue.

“The May issue of Playboy is unforgettable with Dancing With The Stars’ Karina Smirnoff on the cover and nude inside,” Hefner tweeted on Wednesday.

Lindsay Lohan to play mobster daughter in John Travolta movie?

Hollywood Gossip!

Troubled Lindsay Lohan to play controversial mobster daughter in John Travolta movie?

[Apr. 10]

Rumors are flying that troubled Lindsay Lohan has been hand-picked by Victoria Gotti, controversial daughter of the famed mobster John Gotti, to play the role of the mob daughter in a new John Travolta film, TMZ reports. It is rumored that Victoria Gotti is friends with the Lohan family and visits them on Long Island. Lohan also is auditioning in Los Angeles for a role in Superman but is returning to New York to wrap up talks about the Gotti film, starring John Travolta. Other picks for the role are Blake Lively and Sienna Miller.

MTV attempted to confirm the choice of Lindsay Lohan for the Gotti role alongside John Travolta with a representative for the film who would neither confirm nor deny any talks that may be underway. When asked if Lohan was hand-picked by Victoria Gotti for the role, the representative said only, “You’d have to ask Victoria Gotti.”

The film is to be called Gotti: Three Generations, and is confirmed to star celebrity John Travolta in the leading role as mobster John Gotti, head of the Gambino crime family, according to MTV. Lindsay Lohan already knows a little something about crime from both sides of the bars. She has rejected a plea deal for her latest theft charges and is opting for a trial instead. It could mean jail time for her if convicted, and could stall production of the film if chosen.

After four months in rehab at the Betty Ford Clinic earlier this year, Lindsay Lohan could use the work and the distraction. MTV further notes that Lohan was turned down last year for a role in Inferno about Linda Lovelace because the film’s director had said “the impossibility of insuring her” squashed the troubled actor’s chances.

Bill Cosby slams Donald Trump over presidential political scandal?

Celebrity Scandal!

Actor Bill Cosby slammed Celebrity Apprentice host Donald Trump over presidential political scandal public comments?

[Apr. 9]

Green celebrity actor and comedian Bill Cosby knocked tycoon Donald Trump on Thursday’s edition of the Today show during a talk about education. Cosby stunned hostess Meredith Vieira when she mentioned having an upcoming election and that Donald Trump had just been on the show with her.

Donald Trump has been toying with the idea of running for president, but has said he will not announce anything until June 2011. Trump recently has been outspoken with criticism of President Barack Obama over questions of the president’s citizenship.

When the Today show hostess made mention of the upcoming election and that Donald Trump has been considering running, Cosby interrupted and said, “Oh, please with Donald Trump. Take him home with you.”

Asked why he said that, Cosby responded, “Because he’s full of it,” stunning the hostess into several seconds of silence.

The Today show hostess finally got her bearings and countered that Donald Trump has said he is not ready to announce running for president, to which Bill Cosby said that anyone can announce. Cosby made mention of someone on the Smothers Brothers show years ago announcing a run for president.

“You run, or shut up. But the only thing he’s running is his mouth,” Cosby said.

Not Winning: Charlie Sheen Torpedo of Truth show bombed in New York City

Not Winning: Disgraced actor Charlie Sheen booed of stage in New York City?

[Apr. 9]

Charlie Sheen isn’t making many friends these days, and the former star of Two and a Half Men, and once the highest paid actor in television history, seems not to be winning and in fact seems to be losing audience numbers as he tours the nation with his live stage tour, most recently in New York City at Radio City Music Hall.

Sheen, dressed in a New York Yankees cap and shirt, (and probably full of tiger blood) was met with a semi-standing ovation at Radio City Music Hall in New York City, says TMZ, but the show quickly turned sour as Charlie sheen did little more than rant and tell stories about his drug and alcohol addictions war stories, without any of the fun details thrown in about him wanting to keep the party rolling.

Previous shows Charlie Sheen put on in Chicago, Cleveland, and Columbus met with standing ovations, but the New York City debut shut down about 30 minutes ahead of one Ohio show.

Did FOX cancel the Glenn Beck Show because he is nuts or is he simply moving on with his next career goals?

[Apr. 9]

Fox News, along with Mercury Radio Arts, the company Glenn Beck founded, announced Thursday that The Glenn Beck Show on Fox News will be canceled later this year. Fox News has seen a 30 percent drop in ratings for the Glenn Beck Show amid accusations that Fox News has become an outlet for the Republican Party rather than an independent and unbiased news source, says NewStaar Media.

But celebrity newscaster Glenn Beck hasn’t quit just yet. He and Fox News still are on good terms. According to the Business Insider, Beck told Bill O’Reilly on The O’Reilly Factor that Fox still was the only cable outlet from which to offer cable news. Nevertheless, Beck said that times are changing and hinted that media must change with it.

Glenn Beck told Bill O’Reilly during a recent celebrity interview:

“We have to reach different audiences, we have to reach younger.”

“So now what? Well, its not enough for me to say, as a citizen, ‘You know what? You go out and help people. You do it.’ Its time for me to do that as well.”

According to GlennBeck.com, Beck’s production company, Mercury Radio Arts, will continue to work with Fox News on a new partnership where Beck will assist with development and production of a variety of television show productions for Fox News as well as other digital media holdings. No details were given on what the partnership might look like for Glenn Beck or Fox News.

Hulk Hogan and Little People reality TV series really about midget wrestling?

Hulk Hogan makes big wrestlers of little people in new reality TV series about midget wrestling?

[Apr. 9]

We know, we know. It sounds all wrong but celebrity athlete Hulk Hogan is at it again with a new reality television series tentatively named Micro Wrestling, reports RadarOnline. The show will highlight the backstage lives and training of little people in professional wrestling. Micro Wrestling currently is in production, and Hulk Hogan will be the man and mentor behind the big aspirations of these little athletes.

While Hogan is no stranger to reality television & he’s starred in Hogan Knows Best and Brooke Knows Best & the reality television show Micro Wrestling is a return to wrestling for the professional wrestling superstar.

RadarOnline.com reports:

The Hulk (a.k.a. Terry Bollea) will be the man behind the wrestlers: “He’s the guy who inspires, recruits, trains and mentors them. He’s been involved in every step — only this time it’s on a smaller scale,” his attorney David Houston tells RadarOnline.com exclusively.

“It will explore the fascinating world of wrestling on the scale of little people,” he adds. “It will show their extraordinary physical capabilities and the true strength of people of that stature.”

There is an established history for little people in sports. The Dwarf Athletic Association of America (DAAA) “is a nonprofit organization created in 1985 to develop, promote, and provide quality amateur level athletic competition opportunities for dwarf athletes in the United States.”

Some have criticized Micro Wrestling as just another attempt by the green celebrity professional wrestler to capitalize on his own antics, as he was criticized for doing with reality television shows Hogan Knows Best and Brooke Knows Best, but Micro Wrestling may do a lot to bring attention to the quality sportsmanship and abilities of little people. Green celebrity Hogan still is suffering through a costly divorce from his ex-wife Linda.
