Joe Francis Out on Bail, Hide Your Pre-Teens

Joe Francis Out on Bail Sometimes I don't think this guy would get half the press he does if TMZ didn't have so much fun making up words like "pimpresario" and "sexecutive." I prefer to call him "jackass." I imagine his cell mates called him "bitch." Whatever your special pet name for Joe Francis, he was released from a Nevada jail on $1.5M bail on Monday afternoon. However, officials in Florida still want him for sexual performance with a minor and smuggling sleeping pills into jail. So, with any luck, he'll be ba...

Creepy

amd_ramsey2.jpg So in weird couple news John Ramsey and Beth Holloway Twitty are dating. As you may remember John Ramsey is the father of JonBenet Ramsey who was murdered at the age of 6 and Beth Holloway Twitty is the mother of Natalie Holloway who disappeared in the Bahamas. They have been seen kissing and enjoying romantic dinners in Twitty's hometown yet deny that there is any romantic relationship between them. Somehow this really weirds me out. I understand shared experience and all but this coupling...

So You Think You Can Act?

katmcphee.jpg To this: (Katharine) McPhee starring in indie feature I say "why not?" Although I am wary of the "indie" tag, because that means I may be filming it with the extra $20 I got from selling a crack rock today, I see no reason to automatically disqualify McPhee from the ranks of J-Hudness. Conversely, in the industry, it's pretty much the prevailing opinion that J-Hud will never be heard from again on the acting front. Her role in Dreamgirls was too perfect for her and featured tons of si...

Yes, That Was Vanessa Minnillo in the Lindsay Lohan Knife Pictures

Vanessa Minnillo Knife Lindsay Lohan For all you commenters who noted that the other girl posing in the Lindsay Lohan knife pictures looked a lot like Vanessa Minnillo, Page Six agrees, and apparently she is taking heat for them. THE mystery brunette posing sexily with a knife at Lindsay Lohan's throat in photos that ran in yesterday's New York Post is Vanessa Minnillo, who might have a hard time getting a new job because of the risqué party pictures. The beauty is gaining a bad rep in the TV industry for her diva-like be...

It’s About Time: Jack McCoy’s Getting a Promotion

Sam Waterston Law and Order With Fred Thompson, who currently plays District Attorney Arthur Branch on Law & Order, contemplating a run for the real-world presidency, it may finally be time for Jack McCoy to get into the driver's seat. Sam Waterston, who's been with the L&O franchise as an ADA for 13 years, is negotiating to step into the DA role when the show returns mid-season. The exact storyline has not been decided. In additional changes on the show, Jeremy Sisto (who will, unfortunately, always be Elton from...

Tina Fey Says Alec Baldwin Will Be Back on 30 Rock

tina_fey.jpg After StupidThoughtlessLittlePigGate and splitting from his agency (and then crawling back), Alec Baldwin stated on The View that he would not be returning to his hit show (and the thing keeping Aaron Sorkin up at night since he quit smoking crack), 30 Rock. “If I never acted again, I couldn’t care less,” he said. Baldwin's 30 Rock contract pretty much assured he'd be coming back, but Tina Fey said in a recent interview that if he comes back, it will be because he wants to. “I was on vacation so I di...
