Singer Akon has announced that he will renounce his U.S. Citizenship and move back to Africa if John McCain is elected. I can't believe about about to say this but...
Please. Everyone. Go vote for The Maverick. Only so that this abusive asshat can get his one-way plane ticket home.
If he [Obama] doesn't get into office, I'm gonna change my citizenship," he said. "I'm moving back to Africa. You can hold me to that. I'm afraid to live there if he [McCain] is President. T...
Sooo ... my night tonight was a BUMMER. Memo to dude in LA who I used to date and wanted to hang out tonight: You are NOT GOOD COMPANY when you decide to share with me about how you just broke up with your girlfriend, who is absolutely your soul-mate but doesn't get you hard, and the sexual problems between the two of you were obvious because you were having such mind-blowing sex with the hot chick you were seeing on the side and you're sorry you have to keep checking your text messages but it's really complicated right now because they both might be pregnant and can you pass the chicken satay? What? Why are you giving me that look?
ZOMG. I remembered you being a lot less of a fuckhead than this, buddy. And who the hell picks up smoking at the age of 28? And you can't pay for dinner because you don't have a job and all your "money" is tied up "in the stock market" right now? You are gross and pathetic, and please delete my number from your cell phone.
For what it's worth, though, Pathetic Fuckhead told me that the Washington Redskins always play the day before the election and, for the past hundred years, whenever they've lost that game, the Oval Office has changed parties. The Redskins lost to the Steelers tonight by a solid margin.
Anyway, I came home from this disaster of a dinner and someone had sent me this link and it put a smile back on my face. It's some recent correspondence between an Australian call center employee and his supervisor.

Niresh,
1 day leave absences do not require a medical certificate as stated in my contract, provided I have stated that I am on leave for medical reasons.

Hi Kyle,
Usually that is the case, as per your contract. However please note that leave during these occasions is only granted for genuine medical reasons. You line manager has determined that your leave was not due to medical reasons and as such we cannot grant leave on this occasion.

Hi Niresh,
My leave was due to medical reasons, so you cannot deny leave based on a line manager's discretion, with no proof, please process leave as requested.
Thanks

When I heard that Ivana Trump had married for the fourth time, I really thought it was meant to last. Nothing says "forever" like a penniless Italian playboy marrying a rich, 24 years older granny. So to hear the rumors that these two are on the rocks leaves me disheartened. Sigh...where did it all go wrong?
Ivana's friends are saying that she and hubby Rossano Rubicondi have been living separate lives since their April wedding that almost didn't happen....

Fuck. Wood is such a distracting force for me. Sorry.Â
"I felt I became a star only by association. I didn’t think [the early movies] were very good, which is why I would always cower in the background. I thought, I don’t deserve to be here. We would go to the Oscars and I would think, I’m here to support him. I felt it was my job to put on a beautiful dress and be seen and not heard."

Grey's Anatomy has abruptly fired actress Brooke Smith who played Dr. Erica Hahn, the lover of character Dr. Callie Torres.Â
The move was a creative decision and unrelated to the sexual orientation of Smith's character, said series creator and executive producer Shonda Rhimes.
"Brooke Smith was obviously not fired for playing a lesbian. Clearly it's not an issue, as we have a lesbian character on the show — Calliope Torres," Rhimes said in a statement Monday.

For all the undecideds, perhaps Lindsay Lohan's endorsement on MySpace will tip the scales for you. I just wish she wouldn't have waited until the 11th hour to weigh in and let the public know where she stands on the issues. Because her viewpoint influences millions. I know that I live by the credo of "WWLLD?" It's been tough this election season not knowing...

Even though her god-awful show, Kath & Kim, was miraculously picked up for a full season, Selma Blair still looks like bad news, out shopping in Hollywood today.
Aw, Selma.
Matt Felker may have moved on long ago, but Promises is still there, sweetie, just like you remember it. You won't get Britney Spears as your roommate this time, but they still have the same awesome oatmeal raisin cookies and ocean view. Think about taking it seriously this time.

Before and after her Letterman appearance today.
Please take note of the fact that, on the darker dress, her name is written all over the dress. Unattractive and unsettling.
And is anyone else noticing that, the older she gets, the more she looks like her mother? Or is it just the more mature hairstyle?

Check out these adorable photos from the traditional Jewish wedding of Will & Grace creator Max Mutchnick and his husband, Erik Hyman. The wedding ceremony also served as a naming ceremony for their twin daughters, born from a surrogate: the girls are named Rose and Evan.
Erik is the former longtime partner of famed photographer Herb Ritts, who died of AIDS in 2002.
Mazel tov, kids!!! Here's to newfound happiness!

I never had a desire to be famous. I was fat. I didn't know any fat famous actresses. I just did not see myself in that world at all, and I'm being very sincere. You know, once a fat kid, always a fat kid ... You always think that you just look a little bit wrong or a little bit different from everyone else. And I still sort of have that. I often look at women who wear great jeans and high heels and nice little T-shirts wandering around the city and I think, 'I should make more of an effort. I sho...
Oh, Jess. Thank goodness you brought this up. I'd almost forgotten that you posed nude for Gear magazine a long, long time ago, to get your ass out of your Seventh Heaven contract. Jess told Entertainment Weekly, in a new interview, that she regrets the shoot, done when she was only 17 years old.
"That photo shoot was just a really bad decision on my part and I got myself involved with people who weren't thinking about me and were instead thinking about what kind of a story they could ge...
