Big
news! Michelle Duggar finally got her extended mullet cut off! I kid, I kid. No, Michelle Duggar is pregnant again. This time -- not kidding. They did what any normal family would do: They told the
Today show audience right away!
It's so funny, because Meredith Viera said the Duggar family had an announcement to make -- seriously, is there any
other kind of announcement other than a pregnancy announcement? Like, as soon as Michelle Duggar says, "I have something to tell you," whomever she is speaking to should reply, "You're knocked up, right?"
"I was wanting pickles and the older girls were saying, 'Mom, you only crave these at the very beginning of being pregnant, You kept it from us before, now tell us. Are you?'" Michelle says. "And I kept telling them I wasn't. I just wanted some pickles."
But when she couldn't lose weight on her diet, she became suspicious.
"I was in Weight Watchers with Jim Bob and I wasn't losing any weight," she says. "I couldn't figure it out. I was doing what I should. And the baby, who was nursing, was fussy. I kept thinking, 'This isn't right. She isn't teething, she doesn't have an ear infection. I'm not cheating on my diet, I should be losing weight.' Then, I put two and two together and wondered if I could possibly be pregnant."
She took out one of two tests she had in the house and it was immediately positive.
"I told Jim Bob and he couldn't keep it in, he was so excited. The kids were outside playing on a water slide and he gathered them together and had to share the news. There was all this screaming and yelling."
I find this amazing on so many levels. She's had eighteen kids -- and a grandbaby due next month -- and really was shocked to find out she was pregnant? She still hasn't figured out what causes this condition? Longed for her number one pregnancy craving food, trouble nursing, couldn't lose weight -- what could it be? Appendicitis, clearly.
So many questions to be answered: Have the Duggars run out of "J" names? Would they consider naming the baby "Justletmebethelast"? Will this be the pregnancy that causes Michelle Duggar's clown car uterus to finally run away screaming? Which Duggar will be the one to go bad and revolt against the church and excessive reproduction? My money is on Jedidiah, just because.
The father says that there was all this "screaming and yelling" when the newest pregnancy was announced. What Rocket Sperm Duggar doesn't tell you is that the ruckus was actually the kids shouting, "When the fuck do I get out of this factory?" />Big news!

People is reporting that DJ AM's death may have been more than just an overdose. It may have been intentional.
Though the official cause of death hasn't been announced, a law enforcement official reveals that Adam had eight undigested OxyContin pills in his stomach and a ninth one in his mouth. That's in addition to the crack and crack pipe found in his bed.
Mirrors were propped up against both the entrance door to the apartment as well as Adam's bedroom door. In the living room, p...
Mary-Kate and Ashley Olsen -- can you tell which one is which? -- spent some time this weekend in Japan attending the opening of Opening Ceremonies flagship store.
As Beet mentioned the other day, the Olsen twins are looking totally different. I am now more convinced than ever that this change in appearance stems from more than "Mary-Kate finally ate a sandwich." In case you didn't know, the large-headed, large-eared one on the right is MK....
Whitney Houston is back in fighting form. I don't know if the Photoshop gods have been kind, but she looks amazing on the cover of October's Ebony magazine. Are we in agreement that divorcing Bobby Brown was the best 165 pounds she ever lost?
About her trials, Houston said, "I shed a lot of stuff, a lot of unnecessary weight in the last three or four years. I left a lot of old luggage behind, and when I did, the blessings just started pouring on me, and the light in my spirit started...
Paula Abdul has defended her decision to leave American Idol, claiming that the motivation to move on had nothing to do with money. “I had to stand on my principle. I’m going to miss the experience of watching young talent evolve into a place where they get to take off and soar. I stand on principle where many people stand on money. I’m a hard-working artist. I’ve lasted in this business for 23 years. And you can’t do that unless you are good at what you do.”
Let's translate: What she means to say is, ...
Remember when Brit was all crazy and pink-haired and wasn't talking to her mom, dad, sister or brother? Those were sad days! This weekend, three generations of the Spears clan vacationed together in Miami. Mom Lynne was joined by her ex Jamie, Brit, Jamie Lynn and all the grandkids -- Sean, Jayden and Maddie.
The mid-tier Spears', Britney and Jamie Lynn, were looking good in their skimpy bikinis. They are the poster children for having children while youth is on your side.

Rumer Willis taped David Letterman last night -- I'm pretty sure her appearance got bumped to tonight's show. Here's the thing: I cannot find any haterade within me for this girl. The tabloids love to bash Rumer for her looks and acting, but I ... I dunno ... I kinda like her. I think she has a very unusual look and doesn't seem like a coked-out freak. That goes a long way with me.
I'm not thrilled with her dress, but she's got a killer body and I think the longer hair is so muc...
Now that DJ AM has gone to the big discotheque in the sky, one of his friends has come forward and shared an email that Adam sent to him exactly one month after he survived last year's plane crash:
"Man this is almost too much for me to handle right now," Goldstein, known as DJ AM, wrote.
"I had no idea how the survivors guilt could have felt. I'm a mess though man. I just hope time will fix this depressed feeling asap," he continued.
"I can't go on being this miserable."
DJ AM was clearly loved by so many people as evidenced by the huge reaction when news of his death broke. It's sad...
It's been awhile since I've been able to pull out the douche-ski photo, but today it just felt right. As you'll remember, I posted a brief preview clip of Chris Brown offering up a whole lot of "Wow" and a little bit of selective amnesia to Larry King. That interview will air tomorrow. Chris Brown has released a statement indicating that when he said he didn't remember beating up Rihanna, what he meant was that he did remember beating up Rihanna. Seems reasonable.
"There have been rep...
You'd think that people who are intelligent enough to actually hack into a major media outlet's Twitter account would have more intelligent and well-versed Tweets to share with the world....
I went to high school with a guy named Brent. He is one of the funniest and smartest (and gayest!) peeps I've ever had the opportunity to get to know. (Although, in fairness -- and because some of them are reading this -- my high-school was pretty packed with smart, funny, talented gay men. We had an excess. And I love you all, darlings, for your Spice Girls tattoos and for your creme brulees and for always volunteering to get high with me, but mostly I love you for your wit and your charm and...
