The Gosselins' business is everyone's business. Kate's brother Kevin and his wife, Jodi -- who appeared on earlier seasons of the show before Kate kicked them off -- showed up at CBS this morning to talk about how horrible the reality show is for the little Gosselin kiddos, and how Jon & Kate don't care a lick for the safety of their children. (The clip of them starts at 1:25.) They feel they need to "speak out" to "protect" the kids.
Whatever. I smell bitter people looking to recapture the s...
Ummmm, what can I say? It's a song by Kanye West, but it's four full minutes of Rihanna. She's not doing anything particularly interesting, either.
I officially don't get it. />

We all know how much Aunt Jodi's sister hates Jon & Kate (& Kate & Kate & Kate). So every now and then I take a look at one of the predictable rants on her blog, Truth Breeds Hatred. Today's post kind of cracked me up:
Kevin and Jodi will be giving a live interview tomorrow morning on The Early Show (CBS). The segment should be airing around 7:30am EST.
I also want to acknowledge all of the emails I am receiving. I can't respond to all of them, but I want everyone to know that I am reading them and sharing them with Jodi. I have received the most heartfelt stories and poems. I am truly touched that so many have taken the time to write, and I want you all to know that the support we are receiving is definitely a bright spot during this difficult time.
Many people have asked what they can do. My best advice right now is to stop watching! ... I am disgusted that they would show such a tender moment between Jon and his daughter just to pull at the viewer's heartstrings. That conversation should have been a private moment between a father and daughter. Each person who watched last night stole something from the children that they'll never get back.
None of this matters but the poems.
Attention, people: WHO ARE YOU out there sending poems to Jodi's sister? Did you write them yourself? If you did, then that's simply the most delightful news I've heard all day. People are independently composing poetry about Jon & Kate. WHAT DOES IT EVEN LOOK LIKE? I was going to try to write a sample J&K poem for you guys, but then I realized that I totally wasn't high or 13 enough. I don't even remember how to fake being an angsty 13-year-old. Should it rhyme? Do I need to draw an anarchy symbol on my wrist before I begin? I think I will suggest that you folks write some poetry in the comments.
I also have another idea. I think Aunt Jodi's sister should post on her blog all the poems that she received from readers. Then the state of California will vote on whether or not to incorporate said poems into their state Constitution. If they vote against it, then Mady and Cara Gosselin can't get married, ever, to anyone. DO YOU SEE HOW THIS IS A WIN-WIN SITUATION? />

The Supreme Court of California announced today that they chose to uphold Proposition 8, which forbids same-sex marriage. The good news here? The 18,000 marriages that were performed while same-sex marriage was legal in California are still valid.
The 6-1 decision was issued by the same court that declared a year ago that a state law defining marriage as the union of a man and a woman violated the right to choose one's spouse and discriminated on the basis of sexual orientation.
Prop. 8 undid that ruling. The author of last year's 4-3 decision, Chief Justice Ronald George, said today that the voters were within their rights to approve a constitutional amendment redefining marriage to include only male-female couples.
Justice Carlos Moreno, in a lone dissent, said a majority should not be allowed to deprive a minority of fundamental rights by passing an initiative.
The justices ruled unanimously that Prop. 8 was not retroactive and that gay and lesbian couples who relied on the court's May 2008 ruling to get married before the Nov. 4 election will remain legally wed.
Sooooo tonight we protest peacefully to remind the world that same-sex marriage is a CIVIL RIGHT that many of us in this country support. I look at this as yet another opportunity to galvanize the nation into action. Since Prop 8 passed, there have already been many victories for equality -- same-sex marriage has been approved in Iowa, Connecticut, Vermont and Maine, and legislation is pending in New Hampshire and New York. THIS FIGHT IS FAR FROM OVER, and I am certain that justice will win out eventually. This is no time to be discouraged -- it's time to get even louder with our convictions.

We must make sure our voices are heard throughout the nation on this issue. />The Supreme Court of California announced today that they chose to uphold Proposition 8, which forbids same-sex marriage.

Oh Lindsay, how I'd missed the daily photos of you! So thank goodness we have this new set of you arriving home wasted, some random guy in tow. Lindsay: WE ALWAYS KNOW YOU'RE DRUNK WHEN YOU BLOW KISSES. It's a dead giveaway, sweetheart.
Check out the rest of the pics from this set -- and many more! -- in the Evil Beet Photo Gallery. ...
Unbelievable! I knew the ratings would be high, but I had no idea just how high. The season five premiere of Jon & Kate Plus Eight, which I've mentally titled Jon & Kate: Separate Couches, brought in 9.8 MILLION viewers. In comparison, the Lost season finale -- which aired on a network -- only brought in 9.2 million viewers. In the 18 to 34 demo, the premiere had 3.1 million viewers -- No. 2 to just the American Idol finale. These are astounding numbers for cable programming. Totally high, just ...
Not that we didn't already know, but, for the record, Mel Gibson's rep has finally confirmed that his girlfriend Oksana Grigorieva is, in fact, guaranteed a bunch of his money pregnant with his demon spawn.
In fact, Mel shared the news with his friend Jay Leno during a recent Tonight Show taping for an episode that will air this week -- Leno's last episode as the host of the show. What a fantastic goodbye gift: Another Gibson kid on the loose. The Malibu rehabs are already planning the new wing they'll be able to build.
"I guess I'm 'Octo-Mel,'" quipped Gibson, who has seven kids with h...
I don't even know what to say. This is so horrible, beyond words.
Mike Tyson's 4-year-old daughter Exodus is on life support after an accident involving home exercise equipment, the Associated Press reports.
In what police in Phoenix call a tragic accident Monday morning at Tyson's home there, the girl was reportedly found by her 7-year-old brother with her neck caught in a cable attached to a treadmill. The boy alerted the girl's mother in another room. Her mother called 911 and tried to r...
Kristen Stewart, Robert Pattinson, Ashley Greene and the rest of the kiddos descended on Italy this weekend, where New Moon will be shooting on location. Robert flew in from Cannes while Ashley and Kristen flew together from Vancouver. Also in tow: Kirsten's boyfriend, Michael Angarano, so you can ignore all the rumors about Kristen and Robert having a "romantic" dinner together last night. Her boyfriend was right there.

Ahhh, I remember last year's Memorial Day fondly. I had just gotten addicted to Jon & Kate Plus Eight, and I was beyond delighted to find that there was a Memorial Day weekend marathon. I had just moved to Seattle, so I didn't have a lot of friends here, and I didn't have anything better to do that weekend but watch every single episode. I remember thinking to myself, "Man, that poor Kate. She has no idea how doomed her marriage is." As an outsider, it was painfully obvious: This relationship wasn't goi...
