So everyone was all wetting their pants today about how OK! magazine is going to pay Matthew McConaughey $3M for the first photos of Baby Gravity Bong — aka Levi — including shots of his first Christmas.
Now comes news that the photos of the Brangelina twins are going to go for AT LEAST $16M. That’s where bidding is at right now. EVEN if you go with a per-capita average, Matthew McConaughey’s child is worth less than half of a single Brangelina tot. You know that kid’s going to spend the rest of his life trying to prove he’s just as good as a Jolie-Pitt.
Oh? And apparently another clause in the Brangelina deal is that the magazine who runs the photos cannot use the term “Brangelina.” Apparently Brangelina hates that term. WTF? Would you rather we have gone with Pittlie? Or we could shorten it further and just call you guys Pittle. And so that spell-check’s not always tagging it, how about we just spell it Piddle? Okay then. The Piddle Babies are on their way!
yup….yet another ‘get rich(er)scheme’ that got away from us mere peasants.
so the filthy rich keep pumping out the bambinos like a production line and keep getting filthier richer from the pics , eh? (God knows they need the cash , right?)
DAMN…..why didn`t we think of it first!
I guess that`s why we`re peasants and they are….well…. you know……
1. Duh.
2. I wouldn’t want to be called any stupid mash-up of my and my SO’s name, either.
3. If you had paparazzi clamoring to take your picture 24/7, you’d take advantage of it, too. Don’t try to deny it. I’m sure Angie will claim to give it all to some charity anyway. Untwist the panties, will ya?
4. At least we’re not serfs. Serf life sucks.
yeah…..charity……that`s it ;)
WOW. I SO totes agree! They’re totally just bitchy divas. FUCK them for wanting to be recognized as individuals with singular identities. Don’t worry, BEET. I forgot that they ever existed apart, too! You continue to call yourself some insult that a drunken bimbo friend spat at you in a catty bitchout, so they TOTES should accept any queer name that LAZY ASS “journalists” (lol) gave them instead of typing a few more characters! I mean DAMN! Their jobs are so easy compared to the difficult world of GOSSIP! Oh and by “gossip” I mean writing 11 articles about your goddamn FOOT, while presenting readers with bitchy, biased “news” stories and somehow incorporating your fucking DOG into every other one, while simultaneously laughing at Perez for thinking too highly of himself and doing the SAME GODDAMN THING. I anxiously await your BEET FOR PRESIDENT campaign, since you seem to think YOU IN YOURSELF are the solution to the worlds problems. I’m sorry, sweetie. You are NOT the fucking Life’s Issues Guru you think you are. If everyone listened to you, little Asian girls in a circus would be pornstars, D.A.R.E. would be erradicated and replaced with your own special brand of “wisdom” (and when they failed, you would make money laughing at them), and gay men the world around would have sex with you in your self-titled nightclub when you threw yourself like a fucking skeeze at their feet. Please, for your sake, stop embarrassing yourself. You don’t suck any less than the people you write about. Your wit has turned to shit, and you are losing faithful readers, who got you here in the first place. Just sayin’.
Baby Gravity Bong! HAHAHA I will forever think of that child with that name.
I have to agree somewhat with Disgruntled Reader. I too am sick of the dog posts, foot posts, etc. Some of the personal stuff is halfway interesting, including the spray tan ripoff, but this really is supposed to be a celebrity gossip site, right? It really pissed me off when the Jamie Lynn baby pictures were presented with three paragraphs of indulgent personal shit followed by the extremely lazy two sentences about the actual topic. Every once in a while the personal stuff is fine and even funny and enlightening. But I really wish Beet would do what she’s paid to do and write about celebrities.
@MW- leave our Beet alone and go read Perez Hilton or TMZ if you don’t want the personality.
@Disgruntled Reader- who the fuck cares? no one invited you here.
I have to agree with the couple — and many posters here — about the combo names. I absolutely, utterly detest them. People have the right to have the dignity of being called by their actual name.
I figured all the personal stuff just indicated that Hollywood was on a downturn re being newsworthy — or perhaps people were just catching on that they were never newsworthy.
Still, I hope your foot gets better soon. ;-)
To all of Beet’s disgruntled readers:
You have too much time on your hands. Find something worthwhile to do instead of haunting shallow celeb gossip sites that you hate. Seriously, folks. Those of use who come here and have a good time and laugh are getting something positive out of it. If it makes you angry, you need to take a step back, calm down, and go do something that doesn’t get your panties in a twist.
Love, Asta
@ wile: That’s why I said “claim”. *wink*
How typical. I express an opinion and get flamed. And fuck you Asta, I can spend my time any way I see fit.
MW, your “opinions” are all crass and include epithets. I’m not impressed.
You have a pretty high opinion of yourself if you think I’m just talking to you.
Actually, I guess that’s ok. I have a pretty high opinion of myself, too.
You WERE talking to me, no? And please save the writing crtique for someone who needs it, BEET.
I agree with MW and disgruntled reader. It’s not that theres a lack of celebrity gossip lately. It was an important day when the pictures of Jamie Lynn’s baby were released, and yet Beet couldn’t have a post that wasn’t about Beet and Leo. She always claims gossip is going to get better “once the election is over”, which I don’t understand because she’ll still talk about herself obsessively when the election is over, she’ll still post important gossip last because she’ll either be on vacation or whining about a boo boo for attention, and she’ll still overpower what she does post with stories that she’s been waiting to tell anyone who will listen because she’s so lonely. I was a fan for a long time. I enjoyed the wit mixed with the information. Then she got a facebook group. She finally had fans. She became egotistical. “I know I’m not as pretty as Kate Hudson”, I knew all of your idiotic comments would say things like “OMG you are!”. She’s addicted to those comments. She needs help. I’m done with this site. I’ve seen it’s downfall. You guys just stick around and see hers.
Its one thing to come to sites such as these and read about the lastest gossip on the hottest celebrity to waste a few minutes. Might as well be entertained.
Its another to actually sit down and WRITE a whole essay on these aforementioned individuals…and then get bored and write about something no one really cares about.
For those of you offended by above comments..ITS NOTHING PERSONAL, right?
Here are people writing their OWN opinions and you get defensive? HA!
Oh, and don’t bother getting defensive with this comment either…I won’t be coming back to read it.
I was posting in response to Disgruntled Reader.
Wow! Good to know I’m not alone!
